Sazgar to Launch Local Assembly of Energy Vehicles in 2025
Sazgar Engineering Works Limited (SAZEW), Pakistan’s leading automobile manufacturer, is poised to make a significant impact on the country’s transportation landscape with its ambitious plan to introduce New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) by the end of 2025. This strategic move is in line with the global shift towards sustainable and green mobility solutions.
The company has also outlined a comprehensive expansion strategy that includes upgrading its existing infrastructure, investing in renewable energy, and setting up new manufacturing units for local assembly of NEVs. This large investment, estimated at Rs. 4.5 billion, will be financed from internal sources.
Sazgar Financial Performance
Sazgar’s decision to enter the NEV market comes on the heels of an impressive financial performance. The company has reported a substantial increase in earnings for the fiscal year 2024 (FY24), with a staggering 697% growth compared to the previous year.
Growth in Pakistan’s automotive sector has created a favorable environment for the introduction of electric vehicles (EVs). Several other automakers, including Dewan Farooque Motors Limited (DFML) and Master Changan Motors Limited, have also announced plans to enter the electric market. Government support for the development of the EV sector further strengthens the prospects of the SAZEW NEV initiative.
While Sazgar’s share price saw a temporary dip following the announcement, the long-term implications of this strategic move are likely to be positive. The company’s entry into the NEV market positions it as a key player in the country’s transition to sustainable transport.
