DEEPAL E07 AUSTRALIA: WALKTHROUGH REVIEW & REAL WORLD CITY TEST DRIVE

EV Channels Review

The Deepal E07, also known as the 'multi-truck' in Australia, presents a unique proposition blending SUV luxury with utility vehicle functionality. The review highlights its distinctiveness, particularly the innovative flexible cargo area that transforms for substantial covered storage, setting it apart from traditional SUVs. While the interior is praised for its luxury, featuring rear passenger controls, zero-gravity seats, and a massage function, the driving experience is described as "floaty" with a "buoyant" ride quality, which may not appeal to all. Acceleration is strong, especially in the AWD variant (0-100 km/h in 3.96s), and the 90 kWh battery offers a respectable range. The E07 is positioned as a niche vehicle for those seeking versatile, luxury-focused transport without the need for a traditional ute, rather than a direct competitor to mainstream SUVs or utes. Its unique market position and lack of direct rivals are key takeaways, though the "floaty" ride and infotainment system's usability are noted drawbacks.
