EV Charging in Pakistan: How It Works
Charging an electric vehicle in Pakistan is simpler than most drivers imagine. Over 85% of EV charging occurs quietly at home overnight on domestic AC power, with high-speed DC charging stations positioned along motorways and metropolitan hubs.
1. Home AC Charging
Plug into a standard 7.4 kW Level-2 Wallbox or 220V household socket overnight. Full charge while you sleep for as low as PKR 1,200 to PKR 2,500 total, especially when paired with residential solar net-metering.
2. Motorway DC Fast Charging
High-power 60kW to 180kW DC chargers are strategically located at M-2 Motorway service areas (Bhera, Sukheki) and GT Road junctions. Recharge 200+ km of range while having tea or a meal.
3. Zero-Worry REEV Option
With a Range Extended EV (like Deepal S07), you don't even have to stop at public charging stations on long trips. The onboard petrol generator charges the battery automatically on the move.
