47 cars
NPR 1,875,000
The cheapest new car of any kind in Nepal, electric or otherwise. A two-door city runabout, not a family car — but nothing else gets you into a new EV for under Rs 20 lakh.
NPR 2,749,000
A proper four-door hatchback EV at a price that undercuts most petrol cars. The value entry point to electric motoring in Nepal.
NPR 3,199,000
The petrol Tiago, and the cheapest Tata on sale here. The EV version of the same car is in our dataset too, which makes it a clean test of what the running-cost gap is really worth.
NPR 3,356,000
Hyundai's cheapest car in Nepal and the natural rival to the Swift. Service network is the reason people pick it.
NPR 3,499,000
Cheapest proper EV SUV in Nepal. Micro-SUV footprint, full EV benefits, and comfortably inside the lowest tax band.
NPR 3,499,000
Cheapest entry into EV ownership in Nepal. Simple, practical city EV in the lowest tax band.
NPR 3,575,000
The cheapest new SUV on sale in Nepal, and still gets 205 mm of ground clearance.
NPR 3,696,000
Micro-SUV with a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating — unusually strong safety for the money, and 185 mm of clearance.
NPR 3,749,000
Tata's micro-SUV: hatchback money, 193 mm of clearance and a five-star Bharat NCAP result. The cheapest way into an SUV body in Nepal that is not an EV.
NPR 3,899,000
The value pick of Nepali EVs. 190 mm clearance copes with broken tarmac, and its sub-Rs 40 lakh price keeps it in a far cheaper tax band than the BYD.
NPR 3,899,000
The evergreen hatch of Nepal. Cheapest parts, serviceable in every district.
NPR 3,999,000
Coupe-SUV styling with Maruti running costs and service reach. Now Suzuki's main small-crossover play in Nepal since the Baleno stopped being imported.
NPR 4,115,000
BYD's small hatchback, built on the same Blade battery tech as the Atto 3. Low ground clearance is its weak point on Nepali roads.
NPR 4,149,000
A crossover-MPV shape that trades outright range for unusually generous rear-seat space. Aimed squarely at families who want an EV without SUV pricing.
NPR 4,196,000
Compact SUV with Hyundai's service network. Easy to drive in city traffic, 195 mm of clearance.
NPR 4,399,000
The petrol Nexon, and one of the best-selling compact SUVs in Nepal. Five stars under both Global NCAP and Bharat NCAP, and 208 mm of clearance.
NPR 4,649,000
Maruti's mainstream compact SUV, with mild-hybrid assistance that helps its running costs in stop-start valley traffic.
NPR 4,679,000
The cheapest Honda on sale in Nepal and the brand's entry into the compact sedan segment. Third-generation car, 5-star Bharat NCAP for adult occupants.
NPR 4,800,000
Mahindra's compact SUV, and one of very few at this price with Level 2 ADAS and a 5-star Bharat NCAP result.
NPR 4,890,000
One of the few genuine 7-seaters in Nepal under Rs 50 lakh, with SUV-grade ground clearance underneath.
NPR 5,196,000
The electric Creta — same badge and service network as Nepal's default SUV, but with EV running costs. Undercuts the petrol Creta on price.
NPR 5,290,000
Feature-loaded petrol SUV with strong brand pull in Kathmandu. Priced nose-to-nose with the Creta.
NPR 5,556,000
The default mid-size SUV in Nepal, now assembled locally which keeps the entry price below the imported cars it competes with. Massive service network, easy resale.
NPR 5,699,000
Coupe-SUV styling on Tata's longest-range EV platform. The most range you can buy from an Indian-built EV in Nepal.
NPR 5,899,000
Nepal's most credible full-hybrid SUV: petrol convenience with a meaningful cut in fuel bills, and 210 mm of clearance.
NPR 5,990,000
Honda's long-running mid-size sedan, now in its fifth generation here. Same 1.5L i-VTEC as the Elevate in a lower, road-biased body.
NPR 5,996,000
Hyundai's compact electric SUV, priced against the Creta Electric it sits alongside in the same showroom. Smaller battery than most rivals at this money.
NPR 6,199,000
Nepal's best-known EV SUV. Blade LFP battery, strong resale, nationwide BYD service network. This price already carries the FY 2083/84 duty stack — the Clean Infrastructure Levy is banded by CIF import value, not by showroom price.
NPR 6,254,000
Honda's mid-size SUV and the highest-riding car in our dataset at 220 mm. Shares its 1.5L i-VTEC with the City. Not tested by Global NCAP.
NPR 6,399,000
A proper ladder-frame 4x4 with low range, in a body small enough for Nepali hill tracks that defeat larger SUVs.
NPR 7,400,000
7-seater flagship with segment-best power and safety tech. Nepal gets petrol only — the diesel sold in India is not offered here.
NPR 7,985,000
BYD's performance electric SUV. Nepal's post-2083/84 duty stack climbs steeply with import value, which is most of why it costs what it does here.
NPR 8,250,000
Ladder-frame diesel SUV with real 4WD hardware and 5-star crash safety. Built for sustained bad roads rather than city polish.
NPR 9,040,000
The only strong hybrid in this dataset. Runs on the electric motor at low speed and the petrol engine at cruise, without ever being plugged in — which sidesteps Nepal's charging question entirely.
NPR 10,396,000
Hyundai's dedicated electric platform car, and the most expensive EV Hyundai sells here. 800-volt architecture means genuinely fast DC charging where a charger supports it.
NPR 10,796,000
Hyundai's large SUV in Nepal, a full segment above the Creta. Sold here in petrol 2WD, petrol 4WD turbo and a 4WD diesel.
NPR 12,900,000
The smallest Toyota hybrid on sale in Nepal, and the cheapest way into the brand's hybrid system.
NPR 18,100,000
Toyota's hybrid crossover, and the second strong hybrid in this dataset. Petrol engine and electric motor without ever plugging in, which sidesteps Nepal's charging question.
NPR 20,700,000
Toyota's large hybrid SUV, 201 mm of clearance and the highest-riding hybrid we track. Priced against the Land Cruiser rather than the Corolla Cross.
NPR 27,000,000
The status SUV in Nepal and the default choice where the road runs out. 225 mm of clearance, low-range 4x4, and a resale value that holds better than anything else at this money.
NPR 32,200,000
The Prado, and the most expensive car we track. Same 1GD-FTV diesel as the Fortuner and Hilux in a larger, more capable body.
