Chinese electric vehicle leader BYD, in partnership with Pakistan’s Mega Motor Company (MMC), has begun delivering vehicles in Pakistan, with plans to supply up to 100 units within the first 48 hours of operations.
Following the launch of its Experience and Care centres at key locations, customers in Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad started receiving BYD vehicles on Friday. The rollout features BYD’s SEAL and ATTO 3 models, and the company aims to establish 15 centres across Pakistan by 2025 to cater to the expected demand for new energy vehicles (NEVs).

Lei Jian, BYD’s country head for Pakistan, called this development a major milestone in the nation’s shift toward sustainable mobility. “BYD has always been committed to advancing technology for a better future. We firmly believe our NEVs and innovations will help drive Pakistan’s journey toward green development,” he said.
MMC, a subsidiary of Hub Power Company (HUBCO), is spearheading the local manufacturing, distribution, and sales of BYD vehicles in Pakistan. MMC’s Vice President of Sales and Strategy, Danish Khaliq, expressed optimism about the collaboration, stating, “This marks the beginning of an exciting journey as we introduce world-class NEV technology to Pakistan.”
BYD, recognized as the world’s largest NEV manufacturer, has broadened its presence across Asia, Europe, and Latin America. Its entry into Pakistan comes at a time when there is increasing interest in alternative fuel vehicles as the country seeks to reduce its dependence on traditional gasoline and diesel-powered cars.
