The new vehicle's overall design closely resembles the SL03, DEEPAL’s inaugural model on the market, and also offers two power options, range extended electric (REEV) and battery electric (BEV).

Measuring 4,875mm in length, 1,890mm in width, 1,480mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,900mm, the DEEPAL L07 shares the same width, height, and wheelbase as the SL03 but extends its length by 50mm.

The design scheme of the L07 largely follows that of the SL03, with some changes in the position of the intake grille.

Deng Chenghao, CEO of DEEPAL, stated on Weibo that compared to the SL03, the L07 features an all-new exterior, interior, powertrain, and configuration. While the SL03 emphasizes sporty technology as a dream car, the L07 focuses on intelligent technology as a completely new model.

In terms of power, the L07 BEV version boasts a maximum power of 185kW. Meanwhile, the L07 REEV version is equipped with a 1.5L engine with a maximum power of 72kW and a peak power of 160kW for the drive motor.
