BYD, short for “Build Your Dreams,” is an emerging electric vehicle (EV) company from China making waves, especially in Pakistan. They’re not just focused on carsāthey’re creating an entire ecosystem, including solar panels to power their vehicles with clean energy.
So, why aren’t BYD cars common in Pakistan yet? The reasons are unclearāit could be trade issues or dealership reluctance. Whatever the case, their absence has only fueled curiosity.
However, momentum is building. BYD already has a factory in California, and its website is ready for Pakistani customers. Its electric buses are already on the streets, showing how its technology works. Its flagship car, the Han, is gaining attention online, with many eagerly awaiting its arrival in Pakistan.
BYD, the global electric vehicle (EV) leader, officially entered the Pakistani market in August 2024. They launched three models: the BYD Atto 3, an all-electric C-segment crossover; the BYD Seal, an all-electric mid-size sedan; and the BYD Sealion 6, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) mid-size crossover. These models are set to cater to Pakistanās growing demand for eco-friendly transportation.
Furthermore, BYD is considering opening an NEV assembly plant in Karachi, scheduled to be operational by 2026, which will contribute to job creation and technological advancement in Pakistan.

Hi there! My name is Kashif Hussain, the lead author of PakDrive. I am a huge car enthusiast and avid traveller. I have a deep passion for exploring the world and experiencing new cultures, and I love nothing more than hitting the open road and discovering new adventures behind the wheel of my favourite car. Whether I’m cruising down a winding mountain road or speeding down the highway, there’s nothing quite like the feeling of the wind and the purr of the engine beneath me. I hope to share my love of cars and travel with all of you through my writing, and I can’t wait to see where the road takes us next.”
