New automobile company, IM Motors, introduces LS6 Sports Utility Vehicle in the Nepalese market
IM6 Takes the Lead in Nepal's Luxury EV Market
The IM6, previously known as IM LS6, has made a significant entrance into the Nepalese market as a premium luxury electric SUV. Priced at approximately 7,499,000 Nepalese Rupees (around $53,470), the IM6 is now available in Nepal, following its launch event held in Kathmandu on July 31 [1][2].
The IM6 boasts a 75kWh battery, offering up to 505 km (NEDC) or 450 km (WLTP) range. It is powered by a 109 kW motor and delivers 450 Nm of torque. The vehicle comes equipped with a full Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) suite, ventilated wireless charging, premium interiors, and 20-inch alloy wheels [1][2][3].
IM Motors, a division of SAIC Motor, has launched the IM6 in Nepal, and it is distributed by Paramount Motors Pvt. Ltd. The IM6 is part of an expanding MG Nepal EV lineup, which includes models such as MG4 EV and ZS EV [2].
IM Motors claims that pre-orders for the IM6 have already secured the top share in Nepal's luxury EV market [1]. However, precise quantified market share figures or competitor comparisons are not provided in the available sources.
The IM6 stands out in the market with its intelligent AI features and an extended-range system, which is said to outperform the Tesla Model Y in range efficiency [1][2]. The extended-range system, similar to installing an engine in a Tesla Model Y, is a new feature introduced in the IM6.
In summary, the IM6 is a highly competitive luxury electric SUV in Nepal, priced around 7.5 million NPR. With a claimed leading position in the luxury EV market, underpinned by strong pre-order demand and advanced features, the IM6 promises to redefine the electric vehicle landscape in Nepal [1][2][3].
