First Batch of Pure Electric Buses Shipped to Nepal, Ushering in a New Era of Green Mobility

On April 29, a batch of pure electric buses was successfully shipped to Nepal, marking the official entry of Chinese new energy buses into the South Asian market for the first time. This milestone signals a new chapter in Nepal’s journey toward green transportation and highlights a breakthrough in the electrification of the country’s urban public transport.

As a significant step in Chery Wanda’s global expansion strategy, this delivery also reflects the deepening innovation cooperation between China and Nepal in the field of new energy. Guided by a customer-centric philosophy, the product development was tailored to local needs — from adapting to Himalayan road conditions to meeting the operational demands of Kathmandu.

The buses adopt a full-load-bearing body structure and are specially customized for right-hand drive, with optimized approach/departure angles and ground clearance for enhanced off-road capability. Designed for the mountainous terrain of Nepal, these vehicles offer excellent comfort and performance to meet local transit requirements.

This delivery marks the beginning of electric buses serving core routes in Kathmandu, offering residents a safer, more comfortable, and environmentally friendly travel experience. It also lays a solid foundation for continued cooperation between the two countries in the green energy sector.

With this milestone, both sides aim to accelerate global market deployment and provide smarter and greener transport solutions to more countries and regions. Looking ahead, more innovative products and services will continue to support the development of global sustainable mobility.
