Punjab has officially opened applications for its first-ever E-Taxi Scheme, a landmark step under the provincial government’s Transport Vision 2030. The initiative aims to provide eco-friendly, cost-efficient, and modern transport options while tackling two major challenges faced by urban Pakistan — rising fuel costs and air pollution.

With 1,100 electric taxis planned for the first phase, the scheme is expected to create employment opportunities, promote clean transport, and make e-mobility more accessible for the people of Punjab.

Impact on Pakistan’s Automotive Sector

This initiative signals Punjab’s commitment to electric vehicles (EVs) and clean transport. It also provides a boost to Pakistan’s EV market, which is slowly gaining traction. With the government actively supporting financing, we may see a surge in demand for EVs not just for taxis but also for personal and commercial use.

For the automotive industry, this scheme could pave the way for:

Increased sales of EVs in Pakistan
Greater demand for EV charging stations and related infrastructure
Opportunities for local workshops to adapt to EV maintenance
