NAIMA Urges Clear EV Motor Testing Standards Amidst Market Confusion in Nepal

The Nepal Automobile Importers and Manufacturers Association (NAIMA) is calling for clear, practical, and standardized regulations for testing and certifying electric vehicle (EV) motor capacity in Nepal. NAIMA states that confusion has arisen due to the lack of a fully implemented national technical standard and integrated regulatory procedure for EV verification, emphasizing that conclusions about motor capacity should not be based solely on website information or model names.

  • NAIMA has previously raised the need for a transparent and uniform framework for EV motor testing and certification with Nepal's finance, industry, and physical infrastructure and transport ministers.
  • The association asserts that EVs imported into Nepal are based on official technical specifications and certification documents from internationally recognized manufacturers.
  • NAIMA highlights that it is common global practice for automakers to produce different technical specifications of the same vehicle model depending on country-specific regulations and market requirements.
  • The organization urges the government to immediately develop a clear technical procedure, testing infrastructure, and certification system to ensure uniform interpretation of EV specifications.
