According to Pakistan Customs Tariff 2016-17 (PCT code heading/subheading– 8703.9020), there is 50 percent customs duty on electric vehicles in light of their MSRP (manufacturer’s suggested retail price).

The must not be older than three years. In simple terms, In this 75D’s car which costs, PKR7.5 million(approx), the duty will be PKR3.75 million(approx).
 
I thought we were going bankrupt.

The guy who can afford this cannot afford tomatoes in Pakistan
 
Be ready for voltage fluctuation and frying the batteries!
 
Thats surprising , the car I believe has shorter range around 200-300 miles per charge. Given that it can be used only inside the city. Just imagine if it runs out of power out side the city we will need a tow truck not a petrol can to bring it home.
 
I instead would love to have that Land Cruiser with a smashed window parked adjacent to Tesla. With right connections in Customs, you can have it very cheap. I love that Land Cruiser model.
 
I've seen 2 so far, one in Islamabad and the other at Lahore.
 
Chinese electric cars are coming in Pakistan. Ready to sell your LNG/patrol cars..
