A vehicle that runs only 50km on electricity and then returns to petrol should not be treated the same as a fully electric vehicle. Pakistan’s EV future needs clarity, not confusion. @CMShehbaz@Financegovpk https://t.co/fx89tYuECd #50KMnot_anEV#50KM_notEV

@CMShehbaz@brecordernews A policy meant to support clean mobility should focus on fully electric vehicles. Giving similar incentives to petrol-assisted models may slow Pakistan’s transition toward a modern and sustainable transport sector. @PakPMO@Financegovpk#50KMnot_anEV

اگر ایک گاڑی کی اصل طاقت اب بھی پٹرول ہے تو اسے مکمل EV کے برابر فوائد دینا درست نہیں۔ پاکستان کو ایسی پالیسی درکار ہے جو حقیقی الیکٹرک ٹیکنالوجی کی حوصلہ افزائی کرے۔

Consumers follow incentives. If PHEVs and BEVs receive the same benefits, many buyers will choose petrol-backed options instead of going fully electric. That is not the outcome Pakistan needs. @CMShehbaz@brecordernews#50KMnot_anEV#BEVsNotPHEVs

A strong EV policy should accelerate the move away from fossil fuels. Giving equal treatment to vehicles that still rely heavily on petrol risks slowing that transition. @MuradAliShahPPP@Financegovpk https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0 #50KmIsNotEV
Countries leading the EV revolution have separate policies for BEVs and PHEVs. Pakistan can learn from these successful models while shaping its own transport future. @BBhuttoZardari@brecordernews https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0 #50KmIsNotEV
@PakPMO@FBRSpokesperson Every major EV market around the world separates battery electric vehicles from plug-in hybrids in policy design. Pakistan should follow global best practices before finalizing its framework. @etribune@dawn_com https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0 #50KmIsNotEV
Local parts manufacturers pay 18% GST while imported PHEVs enjoy benefits designed for fully electric vehicles. This creates an uneven playing field and hurts local industry growth. @MaryamNSharif@brecordernews https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0 #50KmIsNotEV
If PHEVs and BEVs receive the same incentives, consumers will naturally choose vehicles that still depend on petrol. Pakistan needs a policy that rewards true electric mobility. @PakPMO@FBRSpokesperson https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0 #50KmIsNotEV
@CMShehbaz@Financegovpk Consumers deserve transparency. A car that depends on petrol after a short electric range should not be marketed or incentivized in the same way as a vehicle that runs entirely on electricity. @PakPMO@brecordernews#50_KM_notEV#50KM_notEV https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0
A BEV-first policy can help attract investment in charging networks, battery technology, and local manufacturing. Strong signals today can shape a stronger EV ecosystem tomorrow. @Marriyum_A@etribune#50_KM_notEV#50KM_notEV https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0
Pakistan's EV journey should focus on long-term outcomes. Encouraging vehicles that still rely heavily on petrol may delay the shift toward cleaner transportation and energy independence. @CMShehbaz@Financegovpk#50_KM_notEV#50KM_notEV https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0
@MaryamNSharif When incentives treat PHEVs and BEVs the same, the market receives the wrong signal. Consumers naturally move toward vehicles that still depend on petrol. That slows the transition Pakistan wants to achieve.

Local manufacturers face tax burdens while imported plug-in hybrids gain advantages through EV-linked incentives. A balanced approach should encourage local industry and genuine electric mobility across country. @FBRSpokesperson@brecordernews#50_KM_notEV https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0
Pakistan has an opportunity to build a strong EV future but policy must be clear.A vehicle with limited electric range and a petrol backup is different from a battery electric vehicle and should be treated accordingly. @MaryamNSharif#50_KM_notEV#BEVFirst https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0
@CMShehbaz@PakPMO Local manufacturers face taxes and costs while imported vehicles can benefit from favorable treatment. Incentives should support genuine EV growth instead of creating market distortions. #50KM_notEV@Financegovpk@FBRSpokesperson https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0
The goal of EV policy should be reducing dependence on fuel, not rewarding loopholes. Pakistan can achieve better results with a clear BEV-focused approach. #50KM_notEV#BEVFirst@brecordernews@dawn_com https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0
When policy treats a petrol-assisted vehicle like a full EV, confusion follows. Clear definitions are essential for a fair and competitive automotive market. #50KM_notEV@CMShehbaz@PakPMO https://t.co/BdHLKunyC0
Countries leading the EV transition have already separated support for battery EVs and plug-in hybrids. Pakistan should follow proven global practices and prioritize a BEV-first strategy before policy decisions are finalized. @Marriyum_A#50KM_not_EV
