In conjunction with the launch of the Tank 500 in Pakistan, Sazgar Engineering intends to concurrently manufacture the locally assembled Cannon PHEV within the same timeframe.

Sazgar Engineering's expansion plans in Pakistan
Notably, the company’s new investments are being made in line with the government’s New Energy Vehicle (NEV) policy, which has placed pressure on automakers to shift towards cleaner technologies.
For that, Sazgar Pakistan has approved new investments to support the NEV programme
- Acquisition of land worth Rs1.54 billion
- Expansion of four-wheeler manufacturing facilities
- Revised cost estimate of Rs11.50 billion (excluding land cost)
According to Sazgar Engineering, the new facilities will focus on the manufacturing of New Energy Vehicles, with CKD models planned before the end of March 2026.
