Latest News: Nora NEO and Metro EVs Coming to Pakistan
Pakistan’s electric vehicle market is getting two new names. Nora is preparing to launch the Nora NEO and the Nora Metro, two compact electric cars built for city driving. Both models promise a long range, low running cost and modern features. Many buyers are now searching for the Nora NEO and Metro price in Pakistan, so here is everything we know so far.
Both models fall in the L7 quadricycle category. This is a light four-wheel class that sits between a motorcycle and a normal car, and it is popular in Europe and China for short daily trips.
Nora NEO and Metro Price in Pakistan
Nora has not officially confirmed prices yet. However, according to reports, both the NEO and the Metro are expected to cost below Rs. 3 million. If that holds, they will be among the cheapest four-seat electric vehicles in Pakistan, which could attract families who want to move away from petrol.
| Model | Expected Price | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Nora NEO | Below Rs. 3 million (reported) | Official price awaited |
| Nora Metro | Below Rs. 3 million (reported) | Official price awaited |
We will update this post when the company announces final prices. If you want a cheaper two-wheel option, see our electric bike price in Pakistan list and the electric scooty price list.
Shared Specifications of Both Models
The NEO and Metro use the same core hardware. The main numbers are shown in the table below.
| Specification | Nora NEO / Metro |
|---|---|
| Category | L7 quadricycle |
| Battery | 23.1 kWh LFP (lithium iron phosphate) |
| Motor | 4 kW |
| Claimed range | 250–300 km per charge |
| Top speed | 70 km/h |
| Drive | Rear-wheel drive |
| System voltage | 72V |
| Charging time | About 6–8 hours |
| Seating | 4 passengers |
The LFP battery is a good choice for Pakistan’s hot weather. LFP cells are known for a long life and better heat stability than many other lithium batteries. The 70 km/h top speed is enough for city roads, though these cars are not meant for motorways.
Nora NEO Features
The NEO is the more compact of the two and has a modern look. Its main features include:
- 9-inch HD touchscreen
- Keyless entry and push-button start
- Multifunction steering wheel
- Electronic parking brake
- Disc brakes on all four wheels
- Wheelbase of 2,300 mm and ground clearance of 180 mm
- 175/70 R13 tyres
Nora Metro Features
The Nora Metro is slightly bigger and offers a different design and equipment package.
- Touchscreen infotainment system
- Keyless entry and push-button start
- Power windows
- Reversing camera
- Longer 2,360 mm wheelbase
- Higher 210 mm ground clearance
- Larger 195/70 R14 tyres
NEO vs Metro: Quick Comparison
| Feature | NEO | Metro |
|---|---|---|
| Wheelbase | 2,300 mm | 2,360 mm |
| Ground clearance | 180 mm | 210 mm |
| Tyres | 175/70 R13 | 195/70 R14 |
| Reversing camera | Not listed | Yes |
| Battery & range | Same | Same |
The Metro’s higher ground clearance may suit Pakistani roads better, especially in areas with speed breakers and broken patches.
Should You Wait for These EVs?
Another point is charging. A 72V system with a 23.1 kWh pack can be charged from a normal home connection, but buyers should get their wiring checked by an electrician and use a proper earthing setup. If you live in a flat or have no parking, ask the company about portable chargers and public charging plans before you book.
If you drive mainly inside the city, a 300 km range means you may only need to charge two or three times a week. Charging at home overnight with a normal power supply is practical with a 6–8 hour charging time. Running cost per kilometre will be far lower than a petrol car, especially with high fuel prices.
On the other hand, these are light quadricycles, so buyers should check safety ratings, after-sales service and spare parts before booking. If your budget is smaller, the government’s PM electric bike scheme and the PAVE subsidy calculator can help you find an affordable electric two-wheeler. You can also check eligibility and how to apply. For another recent launch, read about Emoto OTOX Dimen and OTO3 Nexo.
