Millat Tractors Limited has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with a leading Chinese electric bike manufacturer to begin local production of electric bikes in Pakistan.
The agreement marks a major development in Pakistan’s growing electric vehicle sector as the company moves from feasibility studies to commercial manufacturing.
Under the partnership, Millat Tractors will assemble, manufacture and distribute electric bikes locally. The company aims to tap into rising demand for eco-friendly and fuel-efficient transport options across Pakistan.

The latest move also signals Millat Tractors’ formal entry into Pakistan’s rapidly expanding electric mobility market.
The company previously conducted feasibility studies to evaluate the commercial viability of electric bike manufacturing before deciding to proceed with production.
Industry experts say the decision aligns closely with Pakistan’s National Electric Vehicle Policy 2025-30, which seeks to accelerate EV adoption and reduce dependence on imported fuel.
Pakistan has recently increased efforts to attract investment into electric mobility as rising fuel prices continue to pressure consumers and businesses.
Rising demand boosts electric bike sector
Electric two-wheelers have gained increasing attention in Pakistan due to their lower operating costs and reduced maintenance requirements compared with petrol-powered motorcycles.
Urban commuters are also showing greater interest in electric bikes as traffic congestion and fuel expenses continue to rise in major cities.
Analysts believe Millat Tractors’ entry into the sector could improve public confidence in electric mobility because of the company’s established manufacturing experience and nationwide distribution network.
Experts further expect local assembly and manufacturing to lower vehicle costs and improve accessibility for consumers.
The partnership with the Chinese manufacturer will also allow Millat Tractors to benefit from advanced battery technology, supply chain expertise and EV production knowledge.
