(Web Desk): Pakistan’s top business group, Nishat Group, has officially partnered with Chery International to bring two of its global car brands, Omoda and Jaecoo, to the Pakistani market.

The exciting launch event happened this Friday and surprised the auto industry with a major announcement. Nishat Group shared its big plan to set up a brand-new electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing plant near Faisalabad. Local production of EVs will start in November 2025, with an investment of $100 million through their company Nexgen Auto.

In a rare move, five new car models were launched all at once, something that’s never been done before in Pakistan’s car industry. These include two long-range fully electric cars (Omoda E5 and Jaecoo J6), two plug-in hybrids (J7 and C7), and one regular hybrid car (J5). The event drew a huge crowd, including politicians, environmentalists, influencers, and car lovers.
