Hozon Neta V is finally available for the Nepali market.

Neta V is a brand new EV, boasting minimalistic styling combined with one of its kind features. It was officially launched at the Neta showroom at Bhatbhateni, Kathmandu.
Mr. Nirvana Chaudhary unveiled the highly-anticipated crossover EV with esteemed Mr. Kul Man Ghising in attendance.
As for the pricing, the Hozon Neta V price in Nepal is Rs. 37.99 Lakhs.
The pricing has drawn widespread disapproval. Especially since a China-made product now costs equivalent to a Tata Nexon EV.

Hozon Neta V will compete against Tata Nexon EV.
Tata Nexon EV is one of the best EVs in the Nepali market right now. It comes from a mainstream brand, offering better hardware, performance, and a reliable service network.
Ironically enough, the powertrain figures in Nexon EV are much better than the Neta V.
Nevertheless, Hozon Neta V does claim a higher range, which ultimately helps with the range anxiety.
CG Motors Addresses Neta V Pricing
CG Motors has issued a statement regarding the infamous Neta V pricing.
According to CG Motors, the government has kept friendly import rates for EVs under 100kW capacity. Moreover, 50% income tax for EVs produced or assembled in Nepal.
However, these incentives are only applicable to Nepal. If a Nepali company were to export those products, those incentives would no longer apply.
The case is similar to the China-made Neta V.
The price of Neta V in China is low due to different incentives provided by the Chinese government. However, those incentives are not applicable when exporting the same product to Nepal.
Furthermore, the automobiles follow a Left-Hand Drive in China, in comparison to Right-Hand Drive in Nepal. So, additional product research and development are required to produce EVs for the Nepali market.
These factors drive up the cost, which simply cannot be compared to prices found online.
Interestingly enough, the import papers for Neta V have been leaked online. You can view it here.

18 lakh ma bechna sakine gadi … 38 lakh re.. luteko ho nepali lai .. so price afule linu parne profit matra liyera becheko ramro CG le.
The leaked import paper is fake one, photo shopped one as at 12. Value: 533,255 Yuan which is roughly 79,500 USD but at 22. Value in USD it is written 33,000.
So CG tried to hide price but forgot to do cross checking.
If you look closely the Yaun Price its 53325, which roughly translates to price of 8000 USD. The last digit “5” is photo shopped. Check properly.
The retail price in China is just 9000 USD only. The NETA V Pro cost 12,000 USD.
This is the biggest SCAM by CG trying to rob Nepali’s
$33,000 for 2 vehicle, this rate is not neta v pro it is neta u pro price
the price is not suitable. #discosting_price #boycottCG
Profit rate gonna rob innocent Nepalese. It’s the worst deal that we could have in EV 2022.
