In a significant leap forward for Pakistan’s automotive sector, Capital Smart Motors has unveiled the country’s first-ever Range Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV) — the Forthing Friday REEV — boasting an impressive total drive range of 1,150 kilometers.

The launch signals a new era in sustainable mobility, moving beyond traditional Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs), which now seem outdated in comparison. This REEV architecture blends advanced electric propulsion with the reliability of a fuel-based range extender, allowing for seamless long-distance travel with minimal environmental impact.

A Technological Breakthrough

Unlike early electric and hybrid models that offered limited range — typically between 50 to 120 kilometers on battery power — the Friday REEV is engineered for both urban commuting and inter-city journeys. This eliminates “range anxiety,” a common concern among electric vehicle drivers, especially in regions like Pakistan where charging infrastructure is still developing.

“This won’t just be another launch; it’s a shift in the auto evolution narrative,” said Capital Smart Motors in an official statement.

The REEV offers the best of both worlds:

  • Battery-powered efficiency for short trips and daily use
  • A fuel-based extender to power the vehicle when the battery runs low
  • No compromise on performance, range, or driver confidence

Positioning in the Market

Though official pricing details are still pending, industry analysts expect the Forthing Friday REEV to be positioned in the upper-mid segment, likely competing with popular HEVs from Toyota and Haval, which currently retail between PKR 8 to 15 million.

Sustainable Mobility for Pakistan

The Forthing Friday REEV is more than just a vehicle launch — it’s a strategic advancement toward greener transportation in Pakistan. With its unique blend of sustainability and performance, this model is poised to set new benchmarks for future electric vehicles in the region.

As the country confronts the dual challenges of climate change and urban air pollution, the introduction of a range-extended electric vehicle could not be more timely. It represents a tangible step forward in making clean, long-range, smart mobility a reality for Pakistanis.

The launch of the Forthing Friday REEV by Capital Smart Motors represents a bold pivot toward next-generation EVs in Pakistan. With its long-range capabilities and hybrid reliability, it could revolutionize how Pakistan approaches electric transport — blending environmental responsibility with practicality.
