About EV Charging in Multan

The City of Saints — Going Electric

Multan, one of Pakistan's oldest cities and a regional commercial hub in South Punjab, is building EV charging infrastructure driven by PSO's national rollout and increasing private investment. Located on both the M-4 and M-5 motorways, Multan is a critical midpoint for EV road trips between Lahore and Karachi — making charging infrastructure here strategically important for long-distance EV travel.

DC Fast Charging

Multan's EV charging is anchored by PSO's DC fast charger at the M-4/M-5 interchange service area — the single most strategically important charger on Pakistan's longest EV route. The PSO DC charger is CCS2 compatible, operates 24 hours, and can charge a BYD Atto 3 from 20% to 80% in approximately 30–35 minutes. For Lahore-to-Karachi EV travellers, Multan's PSO DC charger is not optional — it is the only reliable DC stop between Lahore (340km north on M-4) and Sukkur/Karachi.

AC Charging in Multan

AC Type 2 charging is available at PSO stations across Multan's city centre including locations near Hussain Agahi and the Multan Bypass. AC charging at 7kW is suitable for longer stops — drivers spending 2–3 hours for meals or rest can add 100–140km of range. The Multan Cricket Stadium area and Bosan Road have emerging private charging points as the city's EV fleet grows.

Charging Networks

PSO is the dominant and effectively only reliable EV charging operator in Multan for long-distance travellers. The PSO station at the M-4/M-5 interchange is purpose-built for motorway EV transit. Private operators have limited presence in Multan compared to Lahore and Karachi, though this is expected to change as Multan's EV fleet (led by Changan Uni-V buyers) grows. Multan's status as the M-4/M-5 crossroads city makes it a natural candidate for multi-operator expansion.

Peak hours pro tip

The PSO M-4/M-5 interchange charger is busiest on Fridays and Saturdays as EV drivers transit the Lahore–Karachi corridor on weekend trips. Charging queues can develop in the evening (4–8 PM) during peak travel weekends. Arriving between 10 AM–2 PM minimises wait time. The charger is 24-hour so late-night transit (10 PM–6 AM) is consistently queue-free.

Looking ahead · 2026–2027 outlook

Future of EV Charging Infrastructure in Multan

Multan's role as the M-4/M-5 crossroads city makes it a national priority for EV charging infrastructure expansion. The Pakistan government's National Electric Vehicle Policy targets motorway service area charging at all major interchanges — Multan's M-4/M-5 junction is already on this list. Shell Recharge and Go Green are expected to establish Multan presence by 2027 as the Lahore–Karachi EV corridor matures. A second DC fast charger at Multan is anticipated within 12 months.

FAQ · EV Charging Multan

Frequently Asked Questions Electric Car Charging in Multan

General
6 questions
Is there EV charging in Multan?
Yes. Multan has PSO-operated EV charging including a DC fast charger at the M-4/M-5 motorway interchange — the most important charging stop on the Lahore-to-Karachi EV route. The PSO station operates 24 hours. Additional AC charging points are available at city PSO locations.
What is the EV charging cost in Multan?
EV charging in Multan costs Rs 115/kWh at PSO stations. Charging a BYD Atto 3 from 20% to 80% (approximately 36kWh) costs around Rs 4,175 at the public rate — roughly half the cost of the equivalent petrol distance.
Can I drive from Lahore to Karachi in an EV and charge in Multan?
Yes — Multan is the essential midpoint charge stop. Lahore to Multan is 340km on the M-4 motorway. After charging in Multan, the next reliable charge point is in Karachi (approximately 900km south). Currently, Multan to Karachi in a single charge is not recommended for most EVs. Plan to charge at Multan PSO before continuing south.
How long does EV charging take in Multan?
At the PSO DC fast charger (CCS2), charging from 20% to 80% takes approximately 30–35 minutes for a BYD Atto 3 or MG ZS EV. A full 0–100% charge takes 60–75 minutes. AC Type 2 charging at city stations takes 6–8 hours for a full charge.
What connector types are available in Multan?
The PSO M-4/M-5 interchange station uses CCS2 for DC fast charging, compatible with BYD Atto 3, MG ZS EV, and Changan Uni-V. Type 2 AC connectors are available at city PSO stations. GB/T connector availability is limited — confirm before visiting specifically for GB/T charging.
Is Multan the only charging stop between Lahore and Karachi?
Currently yes. Multan (at the M-4/M-5 junction, 340km from Lahore) is the only verified DC fast charging stop between Lahore and Karachi. There are no confirmed public fast chargers in Sukkur, Hyderabad, or along the N-5 corridor south of Multan as of May 2026. Lahore-to-Karachi EV trips require careful range planning from Multan south.
Road Trips
5 questions
Can I drive from Lahore to Multan in an EV?
Yes. The M-4 motorway is 340km. A BYD Atto 3 (420km rated range) can complete this route on a single charge if departing at 90%+ charge in optimal conditions. An MG ZS EV (340km rated range) will require a mid-route charging stop, ideally at Khanewal (~280km mark). Charge to 100% at Multan PSO before continuing south on M-5.
Is there DC fast charging between Lahore and Multan?
DC fast charging availability mid-route on M-4 is limited and not fully confirmed at all service areas as of May 2026. The safest strategy is to depart Lahore with a 90–100% charge and plan a precautionary stop at Khanewal service area (~280km) if needed. The Multan M-4/M-5 PSO interchange has confirmed 24-hour DC fast charging (CCS2).
What happens after Multan on the Lahore to Karachi EV route?
After Multan, the M-5 heads south toward Sukkur and then Karachi. The Multan-to-Karachi section (approximately 900km) currently has limited confirmed public charging infrastructure. Multan to Karachi in a single charge is not feasible for most EVs. This section of the Lahore–Karachi corridor requires careful planning and is expected to improve as M-5 service area infrastructure develops.
Can I drive from Multan to Karachi in an EV?
The Multan to Karachi route (approximately 900km via M-5 and N-5) is the most challenging EV journey in Pakistan due to limited charging infrastructure through Sindh. It is possible with careful planning, a high-capacity battery (60kWh+), and verified charging stops en route. Always confirm charger availability by phone before each segment. As of 2025, this route is recommended only for experienced EV travellers with a detailed charging plan.
Where can I charge my EV between Multan and Karachi?
Charging options on the Multan–Karachi corridor are limited. Multan PSO is the reliable departure point. Sukkur and Hyderabad have emerging charging options but availability should be confirmed before departure. The ABB station on M-9 near Karachi is the final reliable charge point. This route is improving rapidly as Pakistan's EV network expands.
