DEEPAL So7 driven for 2025 review

Is the DEEPAL S07 any good

DEEPAL S07 is a new entrant to the increasing ranks of Chinese branded electric cars and SUVs. Released earlier this year the S07 is quits a stylish mid-sized SUV. 2025 DEEPAL_S07_drivingIn fact, many have said its perhaps the best-looking EV available in the size.

On top of its good looks the S07 is a technological superstore. It’s absolutely packed with technology in all aspects. Comfort, safety and driving.

Like a lot of Chinese brands, I turn off a number of level 2 Autonomous Driving safety features in the S07 every time I drive it.It does take a while though and is annoying. Thankfully, DEEPAL are looking into that from local feedback and amending some of these intrusions.

Priced at $53,900 plus the usual costs it’s also outstanding value.

On the road the S07 is smooth, quiet, responsive and a bit of fun. I love the steering wheel and the whole interior ambience. There is plenty of room for three occupants in the back seats, even with the drivers seat all the way back. Boot space is reasonable.

A 79.97kWh ultra-high efficiency battery powers the DEEPAL S07, delivering 160kW of power and 320Nm of torque. The WLTP driving range rates up to 475km, and I had no trouble achieving that in real-world conditions.

Overall, the Deepal S07 is definitely worth  a test drive if you are in the market for a mid-sized electric SUV.
