Changan Locks Prices on NEVO Hunter and Deepal S05 Until the End of November

Changan Pakistan has given buyers of its two range-extended electric vehicles a short window to lock in today’s price. The company has announced limited-time price and tax lock offers on the NEVO Hunter pickup and the Deepal S05 REEV sport utility vehicle, promising that anyone who pays in full before the deadline will be shielded from any price or tax revision that follows. The offers run until 30 November 2026, and only customers who complete full payment before that date will qualify.

The announcement matters because it removes one of the biggest worries for anyone buying a new car, where prices and taxes have a habit of moving with little warning. A buyer who books a car today can find the final bill has changed by the time the vehicle is delivered, and a lock takes that uncertainty away. The catch is the condition attached to it: the full amount has to be paid up front, and both promotions are subject to the company’s terms and conditions.

Of the two vehicles, the NEVO Hunter is the more unusual one. Changan describes it as the world’s first four-wheel-drive range-extended electric truck, and the first model it has introduced in Pakistan under its NEVO new-energy brand. It carries an introductory price of Rs. 10,990,000. Two electric motors, one on each axle, drive all four wheels and produce a combined 322 horsepower and 529 Nm of torque, enough to take the pickup from standstill to 100 kilometres per hour in a claimed 7.9 seconds. Its 31.18 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery gives a claimed combined driving range of more than 900 kilometres.

The Hunter is a working truck as well as a showcase for new technology. It can carry a payload of 1,010 kilograms and tow up to 2,500 kilograms, and its 3.3 kW vehicle-to-load system can power tools and appliances away from the grid. The battery can be fast-charged from 30 per cent to 80 per cent in about 30 minutes. Master Changan held a line-off ceremony for the locally assembled Hunter at its Karachi plant on 27 October 2026, after setting up a dedicated assembly line in under 90 days. Deliveries are now under way, and the company says the vehicle is fully booked until February 2027.

The Deepal S05 REEV, the second vehicle covered by the offer, is a very different kind of machine. Priced at Rs. 9,999,000, it is a compact family SUV and was the first locally assembled range-extended electric SUV in Pakistan when it was introduced at the Pakistan Auto Show in late 2025, with full deliveries beginning in early 2026. It is built on Changan’s EPA1 electric platform, co-developed with battery maker CATL and technology company Huawei. A single rear-mounted electric motor produces 215 horsepower and 320 Nm of torque, drawing on a 27.3 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery.

Like the Hunter, the S05 never asks its petrol engine to drive the wheels. A 1.5-litre petrol engine works only as a generator, topping up the battery when charge runs low. The result is up to 170 kilometres of pure electric driving on the NEDC cycle, or 145 kilometres on the stricter WLTP cycle, and a combined range of more than 1,000 kilometres from the battery and a 45-litre fuel tank together.

The timing of the offer is no accident. Both vehicles sit at, or just below, the Rs. 10 million mark, a price point that has become one of the most competitive in the country, and rivals have noticed. Sazgar’s ARCFOX T5 REEV starts at Rs. 10,195,000, and the MG HS Super Hybrid is priced at Rs. 10,199,000, so a guaranteed price until the end of November is a genuine selling point rather than a slogan. The Hunter is the first NEVO-badged model to reach Pakistani roads, following Master Changan’s unveiling of three brands and eleven new models at the Pakistan Auto Show in 2025. Local assembly matters here: building the vehicles in Karachi rather than importing them finished keeps costs down and gives the company control over supply and after-sales support through its nationwide dealer network.

For anyone considering either model, the practical details are simple enough. The price and tax lock applies to the NEVO Hunter at Rs. 10,990,000 and the Deepal S05 REEV at Rs. 9,999,000, it ends on 30 November 2026, and it requires full payment before that date. Buyers should still read the terms and conditions, confirm the final on-road cost including taxes, freight and documentation charges, and check the delivery schedule in writing with an authorised dealer before paying.

Looked at together, the two offers say something about where Pakistan’s car market is heading. A year ago, a range-extended electric vehicle was a novelty here. Now there are locally assembled models in both the SUV and pickup segments, priced against conventional rivals, with waiting lists stretching into next year. The price lock is Changan’s way of turning that momentum into sales before the year ends, and for buyers who were already close to deciding, the next three weeks are the moment to make up their minds.
