BYD partners with Hubco to launch Pakistan’s largest NEV charging network

KARACHI: BYD Pakistan - Mega Motor Company (BYD|MMC) has partnered with Hubco Green (Private) Limited (HGL), a sustainability-driven subsidiary of Hub Power Company, to launch the country’s largest DC fast-charging network for new energy vehicles (NEVs).

This nation-wide rollout of infrastructure marks one of the most significant developments in the country’s shift towards electric mobility by addressing a critical gap in Pakistan’s EV ecosystem and establishing the most extensive NEV charging network, making clean, reliable and sustainable transportation a reality for the people of Pakistan.

As part of this strategic and groundbreaking roadmap, HGL will install approximately 128 DC fast chargers across the country over the next three years, with 50 installations planned by December 2025.

The network will be strategically developed across three key areas: urban centres will be powered through partnerships with major oil marketing companies (OMCs) such as PSO, Parco Gunvor and Attock Petroleum Limited; intercity highways and motorways with chargers placed every 150-200 kilometres to support long distance travel; and destination charging points at commercial hubs, malls, hotels and hospitals to enhance customer convenience. Several key installations are already operational in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad, including at PSO stations and BYD Pakistan dealerships.
