Dongfeng Vigo EV Prepares to Shake Up Pakistan’s EV Market

Dongfeng Motor Pakistan is moving toward introducing the Dongfeng Vigo EV, an all‑electric compact SUV that could expand the brand’s presence in the local electric vehicle segment. 

New EV entrant for Pakistan

The Vigo EV, also known globally as the Nammi 06, is positioned as a compact electric SUV aimed at buyers seeking a tech‑packed, efficient crossover. It joins the existing Dongfeng Box EV hatchback and Dongfeng 007 EV sedan already available locally, broadening Dhawla Green Motors’ EV lineup. 

Specifications from other markets show the Vigo with a 51.5 kWh battery, offering a WLTP‑rated range of nearly 350 km and modern features such as a 360‑degree camera and aLevel 2 ADAS suite. While international versions sometimes cite up to 471 km on the China CLTC cycle, the actual local range may vary once officially launched. 

Where it fits in Pakistan’s EV landscape

If launched with competitive pricing, the Vigo EV could slot between smaller city EVs and premium electric SUVs, offering a balance of practicality and modern tech. Current Dongfeng offerings listed on PakWheels New Cars include electric hatchbacks and sedans, with SUVs like the Vigo EV poised to attract urban buyers. 

Timing, pricing, and official details

Dongfeng Motor Pakistan and its partner Chawla Green Motors have yet to confirm the Vigo EV’s launch date, pricing, or local specifications. Anticipation is building among EV enthusiasts, especially as rivals like the BYD Atto 2 and other China‑origin EVs gain traction.

Takeaway

Dongfeng Vigo EV’s arrival represents a strategic step into Pakistan’s growing EV market. With confirmed range figures and modern features, it could be one of the more compelling compact electric SUVs, but official pricing and launch timeline remain pending.
