In today’s era of rising fuel costs and growing demand for efficient mobility solutions, the Deepal S05 Range Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV) is emerging as a game changer in Pakistan’s SUV landscape. As deliveries begin across the country, customers are not simply receiving a new SUV, they are stepping into a new way of driving that combines electric performance, exceptional cost efficiency, and complete range confidence.
Built by Changan; a global pioneer in REEV technology, Pakistan’s 4th Largest Auto Manufacturer, & No.1 New Entrant; the Deepal S05 stands apart as Pakistan’s only Range Extended Electric Vehicle. Unlike conventional hybrids that continue to rely heavily on fuel, the S05 REEV is electric at its core. This enables a driving experience that is smoother, quieter, and significantly more economical.
At the heart of this advantage is a simple but powerful idea: electricity should be the primary source of mobility. The Deepal S05’s 27.28 kWh Golden Shield Battery enables up to 170 km of pure electric driving, allowing most daily commutes to be completed without consuming a single drop of fuel.
Even on longer journeys, the vehicle continues to drive electrically, while the onboard range extender functions only as a generator to produce electricity. Operating within a controlled and narrow RPM range, this intelligent system ensures fuel is used in the most efficient way possible, directly translating into lower running costs for customers. With ECU control, knock sensors, and EGR reducing combustion temperature, the system can also efficiently operate on readily available RON 92 and above grade fuel.
Industry-Leading Efficiency: Best Cost per Kilometre comparison
The Deepal S05 REEV stands out where it matters most: the total cost of ownership.
| Vehicle | Powertrain Type | Estimated Cost/km* |
| Deepal S05 REEV | REEV | ~9.6 – 16.1 |
| 5 seater PHEVs | Plug-in Hybrid | ~17 – 22.0 |
| 5 seater HEVs | Mild Hybrid | ~18.0 – 23.0 |
| 5-Seater ICE | Internal Combustion Engine | ~25.0 & above |
*Estimates based on prevailing electricity tariffs, fuel prices, published fuel-consumption numbers, and OEM claimed NEDC Ranges in Pakistan. Actual costs may vary depending on driving patterns and charging behavior.
When compared with competition in its category, the Deepal S05 REEV offers up to 70% savings in driving cost versus conventional ICE vehicles. When combined with significantly lower maintenance costs, the Deepal S05 positions itself as one of the most cost-efficient SUVs in its category.
CEO Master Changan, Mr. Danial Malik commented: “At Master Changan, we stay ahead of the curve by bringing the latest technology to Pakistan. With the Deepal S05, we’ve pioneered REEV, delivering over 1000 km of range and turning range anxiety into range confidence. In today’s high fuel cost environment, it’s redefining efficiency, shaping the future of mobility, and setting a new benchmark for Pakistan.”
In a world where every kilometer counts, the Deepal S05 REEV offers more than efficiency; it offers peace of mind. Deepal S05 REEV is not just a new SUV for Pakistan; it is a new benchmark for how Pakistan drives.
