Is a Pakistani Smartphone Maker Venturing into Electric Car Production?

In an exciting turn of events, a well-known Pakistani mobile phone maker is set to enter the electric car market in 2025, signaling a major shift in the country's automotive landscape. Following the introduction of Pakistan’s New Energy Vehicle Policy (2025-2030), which aims to promote environmentally friendly transportation, several new entrants are gearing up to launch electric vehicles (EVs) in the country.

At the recent Pakistan Auto Show, the public witnessed the unveiling of numerous Electric, Hybrid, and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles for the first time. Among the highlights were models like the Dewan Honri, BYD Atto3, Seal, Shark, KIA EV 5, Hyundai Elantra Hybrid, Master Lumin, Sazgar Ora 07, MG HS PHEV, and BAW Brumby. The launch of these vehicles underscores the growing interest in green technologies and sustainable transport options.

In addition to these new vehicle launches, the recent debut of the Series 3, a fully electric SUV, in Lahore reflects Pakistan's growing commitment to electric mobility. This marks a significant milestone in the country's automotive industry, which traditionally relies heavily on gasoline-powered vehicles.

Furthermore, the Punjab Government has introduced a groundbreaking initiative aimed at tackling rising air pollution while creating job opportunities. A new E-Taxi service will be launched, providing online taxi drivers with electric vehicles at attractive prices. This initiative not only addresses environmental concerns but also offers economic benefits for drivers, with easy financing options such as down payments and installment plans.

Experts believe that 2025 will be a transformative year for Pakistan’s automotive market, as the rise of electric vehicles will reshape the future of transportation in the country. With numerous electric car models set to be released, Pakistan is on the path to electrifying its car market and driving sustainable growth.
