Last month, Atlas Honda had announced plans to introduce electric scooters designed for local conditions. In a statement to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), the company assured it was in talks with concerned regulatory bodies to materialize a hassle-free launch, with road trials and quality checks already in progress.

As road traffic remains one of the biggest sources of carbon emissions in the country, Hondas initiative is likely to transition about 26 million motorcycles to electric system.
