Electric Buzz in Pakistan started in 2019 & upto the time there are 5 to 10 companies like Okla, Yadea, Revoo, Evee, Metro, Zyp Technologies, Vlektra, United, Crown, Jaguar etc that have been selling Electric Two Wheelers in Pakistan.

Depending upon the Designs, Battery Technology, Motor Power, Cost, Financing & Service Centers, there are multiple choices available in the market that confuse a lay man while making a purchase decision.

In this Article we have well categorized the available choices in order to understand the Electric Two Wheeler Market of Pakistan and to guess the Best Electric Two Wheeler to Buy.

1. Design :

Electric Two Wheeler Design is given the first place in our discussion so that our purchase may fit into our Culture. Keeping in mind the Design Taste of our people and area, the Electric Two Wheelers are categorized as under :

1.1. Excellent Design :

Electric Motorcycles with following Design are considered as Excellent Designs as the instant designs are futuristic & utility based.

1.2. Good Design :

Scootees are placed in the Good Design Category as they look futuristic but give the lower utility due to size. For example less number of people can ride on a Scooty & the speed breakers plus broken roads also treat the Scootees very bad.

1.3. Average Design :

Conventional Two Wheelers converted into Electric Two Wheelers are placed in the Average Design Category. Such Electric Two Wheelers are also called the Jugarrs as they are converted from Engine to Electric with the simple addition of battery & motor by the local mechanics. Due to which instant Design Electric Two Wheelers have the Design & Safety Issues.

2. Batteries :

Battery Capacity of an Electric Vehicle is given in Volts (V) & Amperes per Hour (Ah) & their Multiplication Result decides the Total Range. For example 100 Volt & 100 Ah Battery would certainly cover more range as compared with the Battery of 50 Volt & 50 Ah in One Full Charge.

The main thing to be considered is the Battery Technology that decides the Battery Life or the Charging Cycles. With respect to the Technology there are three types of Batteries available in Pakistan i.e. Lithium, TTF Graphene & Lead Acid Batteries. Let we discuss each.

2.1. Lithium Battery (Excellent One) :

This technology of the Batteries is placed at No. 1 as it is the mother of Electrical Revolution. Lithium Batteries have the long life due to 1000 above Charging Cycles. Only side effect of this battery is Cost & Heat Sensitivity. However the Heat Sensitivity has been fixed by mixing it with other metals e.g. Lithium Iron Phosphate & Lithium Nickel Cobalt Batteries etc.

2.2. Graphene TTF Battery (Good One) :

Though this type of Battery is superior as compared with the Lithium in terms of Charging Cycles & Safety but it is too costly. So, the milder plus cheaper version of Graphene Battery is prepared by its partial mixing with the Lead Acid Battery which is called the TTF Graphene Battery or the Graphene Battery as a Marketing Gimmick.

W.r.t. Life, Cost & Quality this TTF Graphene Battery falls between the Lithium Battery & the Lead Acid Battery.

2.3. Lead Acid Battery :

This type of technology is very famous as it is the oldest one but its life is limited upto 300 Charging Cycles only. So, it is placed at number 3 or the Average Category.

3.Motor :

Motor Power of an Electric Vehicle tells about the maximum speed of the vehicle especially under load and the Hilly Roads. As far as the Technology & Placement of the Motor is concerned then nearly all companies in Pakistan are using BLDC Wheel Hub Motor. The main differentiating thing is the Motors’ Power i.e. discussed as under:-

3.1. High Power Motor (2000-5000 Watt) / Excellent Motor :

This type of Motor gives 65 to 100 km / hour speed which is considered as the more than enough speed in our society.

3.2. Medium Power Motor (1200-2000 Watt) / Good Motor :

This type of Motor gives 50 to 65 km / hour speed which is also considered as a Rationalized Speed.

3.3. Low Power Motor (800-1200 Watt) / Average Motor :

This type of Motor gives 40 to 50 km / hour speed which is considered as problematic speed on our roads especially when we try to cross any vehicle. That is why the Electric Two Wheelers bearing such battery & speed are considered as Toys by the Two Wheeler Fraternity.

4.Price :

It is the most important factor in making the final decision & finding of a value to money purchase of anything anywhere. Keeping in view the purchasing power of our Pakistani people, we have classified the Prices of Electric Two Wheelers in following three Categories:-

4.1. Below 200000 (Affordable or Excellent Price) :

Since this price is equal to a new Engine / ICE based Motorcycle in Pakistan that is why it is named as the Excellent Price. But the EV Motorcycles of this price range fall in the Toys Category as they have the TTF or Lead Acid Battery & Low Power Motor due to which they have short life, low speed and poor performance.

4.2. Rs. 200000 to 400000 (Bit Hard But Good Deal Price) :

In the range of 2 to 4 Lakh Rupees, we can purchase the made in Pakistan Electric Motorcycles that have the Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery.

4.3. Rs. 400000 Above ( Costly cum 3rd Position Pricing) :

This price tag of Electric Two Wheelers is placed at the 3rd position and is named as the Costly Price as in this range we can purchase the International Brands Electric Motorcycles that have the Lithium Battery & High Powered Motor that yield the maximum life and performance.

5.Financing and Service Network :

Depending upon the Financing and Service Network – Ranking of the Electric Motorcycles Companies is given as follows;

5.1. Excellent Financing & Service Network :

Yadea, Okla & Revoo are placed at the Excellent Category. Being Multinational Companies the Service Network of each one has currently reached round 50 across Pakistan & has been increasing day by day. Due to which the Financing for their products is available at the Govt. & Private Banks Level.

5.2. Good Financing Network :

Evee, Zyp Technologies & Vlektra stand at the 2nd or Good Position.

These are the well-recognized Pakistani Brands, so the Govt. & its Associated Financial Associates are providing Financing for their products in order to facilitate the public on one hand & the Local Production at the other.

5.3. Average Financing & Service Network :

Metro, United,  Jaguar & Crown Type Companies are standing at the 3rd or Average Position.

These Companies have the minor Fame, Financing & limited Service Network.

Final Thoughts :

Being new, the Electric Technology for Vehicles is costly at the Moment.

So the buying of a competitive Electric Vehicle without compromising something is not possible at the current times.

If we are concerned about price then as per our analysis the Best Eelctric Two Wheeler of Pakistan at the current times becomes ” Okla Onyx.

Its cost is round 1,85,000 Rupees & its bearing TTF Graphene Battery. Though it has good design & price but one has to comprise on Speed & Battery Life.

If we are concerned about Quality in all aspects then as per us the number one electric two wheeler of Pakistan becomes Okla Omax.

It price is round 6,00,000 Pakistani Rupees & it has Lithium Ion Battery. Though the Design, Battery Technology cum Life & Speed – all is well but one has to compromise on the high price.

In order to meet the gap, two of our National Companies i.e. Zyp Technologies Lahore & Vlektra Karachi are also offering Electric Bikes that are price  competitive on one hand and have the Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries on the other – the name of the Electric Bikes offered by the instant companies are Zum 2000 & Velocity 180.

The price of the two lies between 3,00,000 to 4,00,000 Rupees Respectively. Though the Price, Battery Technology & speed of these two Pakistani Motorcycles is competitive but one has to compromise on their Designs.
