Overview
In January 2024, Deepal presented its third model in the range, this time departing far from the aggressive and modern styling of the L07 and S07 models. The G318 model, taking its name from the highway connecting the eastern coast of China with the autonomous region of Tibet,{{cite web | url = https://moto.pl/MotoPL/7,189410,30590118,znacie-terenowki-marki-deepal-maja-silnik-spalinowy-ktory.html | title = Znacie terenówki marki Deepal?

Specifications
The G318 offers a 1.5-liter turbocharged petrol engine with 148 hp, serving as the so-called range-extender, extending the range in a combined cycle and not transferring power directly to the wheels. This is done by the electric motor, which in the basic version develops a power of 248 hp, and in the top version together with a second, additional engine of 424 hp.{{cite web | url = https://carnewschina.com/2024/01/15/changans-deepal-g318-applied-for-sales-license-specs-revealed/ | title = Changan's Deepal G318 applied for sales license.
