Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD recently announced that it will launch its first vehicle built in Pakistan by July or August 2026.
According to a corporate executive on Wednesday, the plan is to capitalize on the region’s rising demand for electric and plug-in hybrid automobiles.
The leading EV manufacturer in the world, BYD, has been growing quickly outside of its native market, where it is engaged in a fierce pricing war.
The goal of the Pakistan plant is to take advantage of incentives offered by the Pakistani government while simultaneously meeting the rising demand in emerging countries.
BYD and Mega Motor Company have been working together to build the plant since April, close to Karachi.
