Amidst all the shine that the latest EVs from China were showing off in Hall 1 of the Pakistan Auto show held in Lahore over the weekend, or the lights on latest iterations from Japanese assemblers in Hall2, or the loud music of the Koreans brands in Hall 3, none made it on the rector scale of earthquakes as did one disruptive EV bike: the “1,2-fire” manufactured by YES Electromotive, Pakistan.
Dressed in Matt black and kinetic green contours, this unassuming yet revolutionary EV play on the ‘125’ cc bikes of Pakistan is a game changer for the country- with one solar panel etched on their “Power Tree” and YES integrated circuitry charging one of 2 LFP battery packs, their claim of “Free for life” fuel is not a marketing slogan – a mere 10,000 of these alone over its 8 year battery life can save 100M$ worth of fossil Fuel! Wonder what a million such bikes will do.
This solarized, rugged mid drive motorized EV bike, designed in the country and made for the masses is the way of the future for Pakistan mobility.
Imagine the freedom, the future with the “Power trees” planted across the countryside harnessing nature’s free fuel every morning for our bikes. Can you feel the earthquake now ?
