In just a few short years, SAZGAR and Great Wall Motors (GWM) have transformed Pakistan’s automotive market. From the stylish Haval H6 and Jolion to the assembly of Pakistan’s first locally assembled hybrid vehicle, the partnership has consistently pushed boundaries. Now, they have delivered their biggest product yet, with the launch of Pakistan’s first Plug-in Hybrid SUV, the Haval H6 PHEV.

 

The unveiling took place on August 16th at Lahore’s Expo Centre, and the atmosphere was anything but ordinary. With a red carpet and glittering networking area, dramatic lighting, and a futuristic setup, the event felt more like a movie premiere than a car launch. But behind all the showmanship was a clear message. Pakistan is ready to embrace sustainable mobility, and the H6 PHEV is leading the way.

A Brand That Puts People First

SAZGAR has built its reputation by putting customers at the center of its journey. From offering support during the Islamabad hailstorm to absorbing new NEV levies, the company has shown that it is willing to stand by its buyers. At the launch, senior company executives spoke not just about cars, but about the combined team ethos, SAZGAR’s efforts of ensuring responsibility, sustainability, and the future of mobility in Pakistan.

 

Then came the star of the evening itself. Equipped with the Hi-4 all-wheel drive system, mobile app integration, and a powerful 1.5T engine paired with a 19kWh battery, the SUV produces 360 horsepower and 760Nm torque. The result? A thrilling sprint from zero to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds!

 

National Assembly of Pakistan Speaker Mr. Sardar Ayaz Sadiq, attending as chief guest, praised SAZGAR for its forward-thinking approach. He stressed how critical such initiatives are as Pakistan faces the realities of climate change and flooding, also highlighting the importance of after-sales services in building long-term trust.
