Laxmi E-Mobility to unveil premium electric SUV at NADA Auto Show 2025 in Kathmandu.
Laxmi E-Mobility has officially announced the launch of the Chinese electric vehicle brand Forthing in the Nepali market. The unveiling will take place during the upcoming NADA Auto Show 2025, organized by the Nepal Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), which will be held at Bhrikutimandap, Kathmandu, from 21 to 25 Saun.
Known globally for its smart design and cutting-edge electric mobility technology, Forthing will make its Nepal entry with a premium electric SUV. The model comes equipped with a 64.4 kWh battery and a 99 kW permanent magnet synchronous motor, allowing it to cover a distance of over 400 kilometers on a full charge. Laxmi E-Mobility states that this vehicle is suited for both city travel and long-distance journeys, aiming to meet the changing needs of Nepali consumers with a focus on performance, innovation, and modern aesthetics.
The company claims the SUV offers a smooth and responsive driving experience, with special attention paid to comfort, smart features, and interior usability. Highlighting its broader vision, Laxmi E-Mobility stated, “Forthing is not just a car — it’s our vision for the future of mobility. We are introducing Forthing to give Nepali consumers access to world-class EV technology, backed by Laxmi’s trusted legacy.”
Laxmi Group, the parent company, has played a leading role in the development of Nepal’s automobile sector over the decades. It currently distributes globally renowned brands such as Hyundai, BMW, Kai, and SML Isuzu, offering both passenger and commercial vehicles along with auto parts. In May 2024, Laxmi Group launched Nepal’s first-ever four-wheeler assembly plant, the Laxmi Motor Corporation (LMC), located in Ramgram, Parasi (Nawalparasi). Initially built to assemble Hyundai vehicles, this advanced facility marks a significant step in Nepal’s journey toward automobile industrialization. Laxmi is the first Nepali group to operate such a facility.
To further strengthen Nepal’s EV ecosystem, the company has also rolled out a nationwide network of over 63 EV charging and service stations under the ‘Relax’ brand. This infrastructure aims to simplify EV ownership and enhance reliability for customers across the country.
