MAW Vriddhi Motors to Launch Affordable Nammi Vigo E2 in Nepal
MAW Vriddhi Motors is preparing to broaden the Nammi Vigo lineup in Nepal with the introduction of the Nammi Vigo E2 on August 19, 2026. This new variant will be positioned below the current E2+ model, offering electric SUV capabilities at a more accessible price point. To align with its lower pricing strategy, the E2 is expected to have some feature reductions compared to the E2+.
“Full SUV” Features at a Lower Cost
The company markets the Vigo E2 as a “Full SUV,” emphasizing its spacious cabin, SUV proportions, and everyday practicality. Despite being a variant rather than an entirely new model, the E2 aims to deliver the signature Vigo experience at a reduced cost.
Specifications and Pricing
Currently, the Nammi Vigo E2+ is priced at Rs 43.99 lakh in Nepal. It is powered by a 99 kW electric motor and offers two LFP battery options. The E2 utilizes a smaller 44.9 kWh battery, whereas the E2+ features a larger 51.87 kWh battery. This results in the E2 achieving a WLTP-certified range of 300 km, compared to the E2+'s 350 km.
Spacious Design Remains a Key Advantage
The Vigo’s dimensions continue to stand out, measuring 4,306 mm in length, 1,868 mm in width, and 1,645 mm in height, with a 2,715 mm wheelbase and 190 mm ground clearance. These measurements provide a spacious presence ideal for its segment.
Strategic Market Expansion
With the E2, Nammi is adopting a fresh strategy to grow the Vigo’s market share—focusing on a lower entry price rather than adding more features to the existing model. This approach aims to attract a broader audience seeking a larger electric SUV without the higher cost of the E2+.
Proven Performance Across Diverse Terrain
MAW Vriddhi Motors highlights that over 2,000 Nammi vehicles are currently in operation across Nepal. The Vigo model has demonstrated its versatility through successful journeys in challenging regions such as Manang, Mustang, and Shuklaphanta, proving its capability in varied road and terrain conditions.
A Budget-Friendly Option for Electric SUV Buyers
The upcoming Nammi Vigo E2 presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking for a larger electric SUV at a more affordable price, offering a practical and capable alternative to the current E2+ model.
