Exterior Design
The S05 Long-Range Edition continues the “Symbiotic Aesthetics” design philosophy, with its signature “Starwing” split headlamp cluster featuring integrated LED DRLs and million-pixel adaptive headlights. The front fascia adopts a closed-off grille design with active air intake shutters, while the dual-section lower bumper integrates functional cooling inlets.
Four exterior colors are available: Moonlight White, Silver Stream, Gray Eclipse, and Cosmic Black. The side profile retains the compact SUV proportions with blacked-out mirrors, wide fender cladding, and standard 18-inch aero wheels (20-inch optional). Dimensions stand at 4620 × 1900 × 1600 mm, with a 2880 mm wheelbase.
The rear features a dual-section roof spoiler, high-mounted central brake light, and a full-width LED taillight strip for visual width. The lower bumper is color-contrasted, with an integrated diffuser-style garnish.
Interior & Technology
Inside, the S05 adopts a minimalist cockpit with no traditional instrument cluster. Instead, a large HUD head-up display and a 15.4-inch 2.5K central touchscreen handle driving and infotainment functions. The three-spoke multifunction steering wheel and wireless phone charging pad complement the tech-forward layout.
Buyers can choose between Heatwave Orange or Starrock Gray interior themes. Key features include:
Zero-gravity passenger seat
Front seat 8-point massage
HUAWEI HiCar smartphone integration
159L front trunk + 492L rear cargo capacity
On the software side, the S05 integrates the DeepSeek R1 AI model, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, and offers Deepal AD PRO advanced driving assistance, including adaptive cruise, highway pilot, and driver-initiated lane change.
Safety & Build
The S05 Long-Range Edition uses CATL battery cells with Gold Shield Battery safety architecture, meeting the latest China EV safety standards. The body structure uses 78% high-strength steel-aluminum mix, with a 7700-ton mega-casting rear section and CTV battery-to-body integration for enhanced rigidity. Curb weight is 1856 kg.
Powertrain & Performance
All variants feature a rear-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor delivering 200 kW (272 hp). Key performance figures:
0–100 km/h: 6.48 seconds
Top speed: 185 km/h
Battery: 68.82 kWh LFP pack
Range: 620 km (CLTC)
Charging: 30%–80% in 15 minutes with 3C ultra-fast charging
Cold-weather capability: Micro-core high-frequency pulse heating, improving charging efficiency by 15% and power output by 50% at -30°C
Market Position & Competitors
With EV penetration in China exceeding 50% in 2024, the compact pure-electric SUV segment is among the most competitive. The S05’s main rivals include the BYD Yuan PLUS, Geely Galaxy E5, and GAC Aion Y.
Compared with the Yuan PLUS, the S05 offers 160 mm more wheelbase (2880 mm vs. 2720 mm) and a class-leading 78.6% cabin space efficiency, resulting in superior rear legroom (108 mm). Against the Galaxy E5, the S05 stands out with standard L2 ADAS and a 620 km range, delivering higher value in intelligent driving and long-distance travel capability.
Editorial Take
The Deepal S05 is not only performing well in China but also accelerating its global footprint. The right-hand-drive version entered production in May 2025 at Changan’s Rayong plant in Thailand, with exports to 35 countries including Thailand and the UAE. By late 2025, Deepal plans expansion into over 100 countries, including North America and Europe.
By combining extended range, fast charging, intelligent features, and a competitive price point, the S05 Long-Range Edition strengthens Deepal’s position in the compact EV SUV segment. It offers an appealing option for young families and first-time EV buyers seeking space, advanced tech, and everyday practicality.
