Capital Smart Motors (CSM) has officially unveiled its zero-markup easy monthly instalment (EMI) plan for the stylish and futuristic JMEV Elight electric sedan.
With a strong push toward cleaner transportation solutions, this offer aims to make EV ownership easier, more affordable, and more appealing for local buyers.

Comfort and Premium Variants to Meet Every Need

The electric sedan’s futuristic styling, smooth performance, and environmentally friendly build make it an appealing choice for daily commuting as well as long-distance comfort.
With the global automotive market leaning heavily toward electrification, the JMEV Elight positions itself as a forward-thinking option for Pakistani buyers seeking efficiency without compromising style or innovation.
A Step Toward a Cleaner, Smarter Future
CSM highlights that this initiative is more than just a financing offer — it’s a step toward promoting sustainable transportation in Pakistan.
As fuel prices rise and environmental concerns increase, electric vehicles are becoming a realistic and desirable alternative for many households.
For those who have been waiting for the right time to switch to electric, this zero-markup EMI plan, combined with a competitive starting price of Rs 8.499 million, provides the perfect opportunity to join the EV revolution.
