(Web Desk): Federal Government of Pakistan is set to launch the Electric Bike Scheme 2025, with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif expected to formally inaugurate it on August 14 during Independence Day celebrations.

The initiative aims to cut fuel dependency, combat climate change, and provide budget-friendly commuting options for the masses — particularly students, low-income workers, and delivery riders.

PM Shehbaz Electric Bike Scheme with 65,000 subsidy plan

The government has earmarked Rs 9 billion for the scheme in the current fiscal year. Each electric bike will carry a direct subsidy of Rs 65,000, making it significantly more affordable. The remaining cost will be covered through interest-free bank loans, repayable in easy monthly installments, removing financial barriers for those who cannot afford upfront costs.

Easy Online Registration & Fair Allotment

Applications will be accepted via a dedicated online portal, designed for transparency and ease of use. If demand exceeds supply, a balloting system will determine allocation to ensure fairness.

This scheme is part of Pakistan’s broader electric vehicle roadmap, aiming to put 2 million e-bikes on the roads by 2030, along with electric rickshaws, cars, buses, and trucks to modernize the transport sector and reduce air pollution.
