Just a week after its official launch in Nepal, GWM’s all-new ORA 5 EV SUV is already generating significant attention across the country’s automobile industry.

As excitement continues to grow among customers and automotive enthusiasts, the globally acclaimed electric SUV has added another prestigious international achievement to its name by winning the “Design of the Year” award in the Product Design - Automobiles/Vehicles category at the 2025 London Design Awards.

The recognition further reinforces ORA 5’s reputation as a vehicle that perfectly combines intelligent technology, emotional design, and human-centric innovation.

It reflects GWM’s commitment to redefining the future of electric mobility through world- class design and advanced engineering.

Designed around the philosophy of “Natural Aesthetics” and inspired by the concept “Born from Nature, Thriving in the City,” ORA 5 features a biomimetic exterior design with elegant flowing curves, signature waterdrop headlamps, and an integrated rear light design that delivers a sophisticated and confident road presence. The vehicle is equipped with GWM’s advanced Coffee Pilot Ultra Intelligent Driving System and Coffee OS 3 SmartCockpit, complemented by a high-strength steel body structure, seven airbags, and internationally recognized 5-Star ANCAP and 5-Star Euro NCAP safety ratings.

The ORA 5 EV SUV offers an impressive 520 km driving range on a single charge, 200 mm ground clearance, more than 20 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) features, a 360-degree surround-view camera, 180-degree chassis-view camera, self-healing paint technology, panoramic moonroof, and a premium interior designed to deliver a comfortable, intelligent, and safe driving experience.

The vehicle is available in Nepal at a special introductory price starting from NPR 4,699,000 for the Mid Variant, while the Top Variant is priced at NPR 5,199,000.

Since its launch in Nepal, the ORA 5 has been receiving an overwhelmingly positive response from customers, automobile enthusiasts, and industry experts alike. Its distinctive design, premium features, advanced technology, and strong safety credentials have positioned it as one of the most talked-about electric SUVs in the Nepali market, creating excitement across both the automotive community and digital platforms.
