Chinese automaker BYD and its local partner, Mega Motor Company (MMC), have opened their first dealership in Sialkot. The Daska Road showroom gives customers in the city and nearby areas local access to BYD’s fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. The opening extends the partners’ sales network in Punjab as they add dealerships across Pakistan.
Sialkot is widely known as Pakistan’s sports capital and is a major exporter of sporting goods. The Trade Development Authority of Pakistan says international brands source products from the city, whose manufacturers make footballs, cricket equipment and sportswear. BYD-MMC says the new location will bring its vehicles and technology closer to buyers in that market.
BYD-MMC targets wider access to electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles
Danish Khaliq, vice president of sales and strategy at BYD Pakistan-MMC, said at the inauguration:
“Pakistan’s transition towards new energy mobility is being shaped by the availability of advanced vehicles and the growing confidence consumers have shown in adopting them. At BYD-MMC, we are focused on making our technology and vehicles more accessible to customers across the country. The opening of our first dealership in Sialkot is another step towards expanding the reach of new energy mobility in Pakistan and bringing BYD’s innovative vehicle portfolio to more customers.”
BYD Pakistan’s national lineup includes the Atto 2 and Atto 3 electric crossovers, the Seal electric sedan and the Sealion 7 electric SUV. The Shark 6 adds a plug-in hybrid pickup to the range. The Sialkot announcement did not specify which models the Daska Road dealership would carry at opening.
Sialkot follows another recent addition to the network. BYD Pakistan opened its third Karachi dealership in Korangi, extending its reach in the country’s largest city. The Daska Road outlet gives the company a presence in another industrial centre as it expands beyond its earlier retail locations.
BYD plans local vehicle assembly in Pakistan
The dealership expansion comes as the company prepares to assemble vehicles in Pakistan. Hub Power Company management told analysts in November that it plans to start local production in December 2026. The Sealion 6 plug-in hybrid SUV is due to be the first model assembled locally. The plant is in Gharo, Sindh.
Globally, BYD reported sales of about 4.6 million new energy vehicles in 2025, making it the world’s top-selling manufacturer in that category. The total includes battery-electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. In Pakistan, BYD-MMC is pairing plans for local assembly with a wider dealership network. Its first Sialkot outlet brings that retail expansion to buyers on Daska Road.
