Pakistan: New Automotive Policy Focused on Localization, Safety, and Electric Vehicles
Pakistan has presented a new automotive policy aimed at strengthening local production, vehicle safety, and electric vehicle development, as the sector emerges from an economic crisis. Persistent difficulties stem from rising electricity costs, tax pressure, and a decline in activity in spare parts, while local production of electric two-wheelers reaches 290,000 units. Parts manufacturers, through PAAPAM, are calling for a overhaul of customs duties to support local production. The provided sub-events detail only Pakistan; US coverage does not provide documented national differences in these elements.
