Islamabad, 29 June, 2026 – Mega Motor Company (MMC), the official partner of BYD in Pakistan, has delivered an additional fleet of BYD electric vehicles to Islamabad Capital Police and Islamabad Traffic Police, building on the departments’ earlier adoption of EVs as part of their fleet electrification programme. This expansion further supports the Capital’s sustainability objectives and reinforces its position as a pioneer in the adoption of electric mobility within Pakistan’s public sector.

On this occasion, senior leadership of BYD from China led by Mr. Liu Xueliang – Vice President of BYD Company Limited, General Manager of BYD Asia-Pacific Auto Sales Division, Mr. Ketsu Zhang – Deputy General Manger of BYD Aisa-Pacific Auto Sales Division, Mr. Lei Jian – Country Head BYD Pakistan, and Mr. Danish Khaliq – VP Sales & Strategy Mega Motor Company were present to handover the vehicles. It was also attended by senior officials from Capital Police Department, including Mr. Muhammad Haroon Joya – Director General Safe City & DIG Traffic and Miss. Kainat Azhar Khan – Chief Traffic Officer Islamabad.

Talking about this milestone Mr. Muhammad Haroon Joya, Director General Safe City and DIG Traffic, said, “We have embarked on this journey to support the Prime Minister’s vision of Green Mobility Adoption, and we believe BYD was the right choice to help us achieve that objective. Islamabad Police has always taken pride in leading by example, and the adoption of electric vehicles is another step in that direction. Our long-term vision is to gradually transition the entire Islamabad Police fleet towards cleaner and more sustainable mobility solutions.”

Talking about this milestone, Miss Kainat Azhar Khan said, “This latest delivery builds upon Islamabad Traffic Police’s earlier induction of BYD EVs and reflects the department’s continued commitment to upgrading its fleet under the directive of Prime Minister’s vision of Green Mobility Adoption. These vehicles will support operational mobility requirements while helping reduce fuel consumption, lower operating costs, and contribute to a cleaner environment.”

Commenting on the collaboration, Liu Xueliang, Vice President of BYD, said: “The Federal department’s continued adoption of sustainable mobility solutions demonstrates its leadership in advancing more efficient and future-ready public service operations. As Pakistan seeks to reduce its dependence on imported petroleum products and protect the environment, the adoption of electric vehicles across both public and private sectors will play an increasingly critical role. BYD remains committed to facilitating this transition through leading technology, a diverse portfolio of new energy vehicles, and continued investment in solutions that support Pakistan’s electrification goals.”

Danish Khaliq, VP Sales & Strategy at MMC, said, “The continued collaboration and trust between Islamabad Police and BYD reflects growing confidence in new energy vehicle technology and, highlights the role electric mobility can play in delivering both environmental and operational efficiencies. We remain committed to supporting the Government’s sustainability objectives while contributing to Pakistan’s broader transition toward cleaner, smarter transportation.”

As per the directive from Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on accelerating adoption of electric vehicles, public-sector institutions are increasingly exploring electric mobility as a practical solution to address rising fuel costs, strengthening energy security and protecting the environment.
