The Government of Pakistan has launched a landmark initiative under the Pakistan Accelerated Vehicle Electrification (PAVE) Program, marking a major step toward clean and affordable mobility. In the first phase, the government will distribute 40,000 electric motorcycles (e-bikes) and 1,000 electric rickshaws to successful applicants across the country.
This scheme aims to reduce Pakistan’s dependency on expensive imported fuel, improve air quality, and encourage the use of electric vehicles (EVs). It will also support the local EV manufacturing industry, create new green jobs, and make daily commuting cheaper for thousands of citizens — including students, women, and small business owners.
