KATHMANDU, June 15: Shangrila Motors has launched the Leapmotor B10 (2026 model, top variant) in Nepal at a price of Rs 5.499 million, reduced from its earlier price of Rs 6 million, the company said in a press release.
The company said the price reduction comes despite broader market pressure, where rising foreign exchange rates and expected changes in import duties have led several automotive brands to increase prices by around 5 to 10 percent. According to the press release, Shangrila Motors has absorbed the additional costs without passing them on to customers.
