Deepal S07 & L07 Maintenance in Saudi Arabia — Service, Warranty & Parts (2026)
Deepal S07 and L07 maintenance for Saudi Arabia: EV vs range-extender service differences, the generator engine oil schedule, battery care in the heat, warranty by import route, and parts at EVS Riyadh.

Deepal is Changan's electric brand, and the S07 SUV and L07 sedan have become a common choice for Saudi families looking for a well-priced EV. The single most important thing a Deepal owner must know sounds simple but changes the whole maintenance plan: which version do you have? Deepal sells both pure electric and range-extender (REEV) versions of the same models, and they are not serviced the same way.
If yours is the range-extender version, it has an engine. A small combustion engine works as a generator to charge the battery — the same concept as LiXiang's EREVs. That engine needs its own oil and filter changes on schedule even though it never drives the wheels, and skipping them because "it's an electric car" is the most expensive misunderstanding in this segment. The generator's cooling system and spark plugs are on the maintenance list too. Our guide to LiXiang EREV maintenance explains the concept — the same logic applies to Deepal's REEV versions.
The pure EV version keeps it simpler. No generator engine, fewer fluids, fewer moving parts. The battery is the focus: Saudi heat accelerates aging, so keep daily charging around 80% and book an annual battery health check. Most Deepal trims use LFP chemistry, which tolerates heat well and actually benefits from an occasional 100% charge to calibrate the battery management system — a specialist can confirm your pack type and set the right habit.
The daily-wear items follow the familiar EV pattern. Instant torque wears tires faster than a petrol equivalent — rotate every 10,000 km. Regenerative braking leaves the friction brakes underused, so ask for a brake clean-and-exercise service annually rather than waiting for a pad warning that may take years to appear. The cabin AC filter earns replacement every 15,000 km in Saudi dust, and the AC system deserves a check before every summer — it is the biggest single load on the battery.
Warranty depends on how the car entered the Kingdom. Deepal is officially distributed in Saudi Arabia, and cars bought through official channels carry a local warranty — keep the service history documented to protect it. Parallel-import units are a different story: coverage from China usually isn't valid here. For any used Deepal, a pre-purchase inspection with a battery report is cheap insurance. And when factory coverage ends — or never applied — EVS Extended Warranty plans in 1, 2 and 3 year terms cover the high-voltage battery, motor and drivetrain, and charging system; see extended warranty.
Parts are less painful than most Chinese brands. Because Changan has a real presence in the Kingdom, consumables and many mechanical parts are available locally; model-specific EV components may still need ordering. EVS services Deepal alongside the wider Changan range and keeps common wear items in stock — typical prices are in our EV parts guide.
FAQ — Quick answers:
Does a Deepal need oil changes? The range-extender (REEV) versions do — their generator engine needs oil and filter changes on schedule even though it never drives the wheels. The pure electric versions don't have an engine at all.
Is Deepal's warranty valid in Saudi Arabia? Cars bought through official Saudi channels carry a local warranty — keep the service history documented to protect it. Parallel-import units usually don't; for those, EVS Extended Warranty plans are available after inspection.
How often does a Deepal need servicing? An annual battery health check plus tire rotation every 10,000 km covers the essentials for the EV version. REEV versions add the generator engine's oil schedule on top.
At EVS Riyadh we service both Deepal versions — battery diagnostics, generator-engine service for REEV cars, charging system checks and software updates.
