Chaudhary Group’s EV company CG Motors has launched Neta V, its first-ever eco-friendly electric vehicle. The company believes its electric EV will help curb Nepal’s huge petroleum liabilities and help government policies of minimizing fuel imports.
“The government plans to halve the consumption of petroleum products, which is a major factor in Nepal’s trade deficit, by 2050,” said Nirwan Chaudhary, MD of CG Chaudhary Group.
The company announced Neta V on the occasion of World Environment Day. Kulman Ghising, the Executive Director of the Nepal Electricity Authority, was also present at the public event. Ghising also discussed NEA’s efforts to encourage a shift toward EVs.
Ghising said, ‘Driving an electric vehicle is very cheap. Emphasis should be given on using EVs as they are also environmentally friendly, ‘he said.
