Another Chinese electric brand is on its way. Sazgar has confirmed it is bringing Arcfox to Pakistan, starting with two very different cars: the compact T1 EV and the T5 REEV range-extender.
Samples are expected, but launch date, pricing and bookings have not been announced. Here is what the Arcfox Pakistan arrival actually involves, and what the two models offer on their published specifications.
Arcfox Pakistan Launch: What We Know So Far
Confirmed: Sazgar is introducing Arcfox, the T1 EV and T5 REEV are the first two models, and samples are expected in Pakistan.
Not yet announced: the launch date, Pakistan prices, booking details, final Pakistan specifications, whether the cars will be locally assembled, and the dealer network. Anything you see quoted on those points is speculation for now.
What Is Arcfox?
Arcfox is the new-energy brand of BAIC Group, one of China's major state-owned automakers. Its overseas business is handled through BAIC International, according to BAIC's official ARCFOX statement.
That makes Sazgar a natural fit. It already represents BAIC in Pakistan, alongside Great Wall's Haval, Tank and ORA — so Arcfox extends an existing relationship rather than starting a new one. Our overview of Chinese car brands in Pakistan shows where Sazgar sits among the local groups.
Arcfox T1 EV
The T1 is a compact, fully electric car with a single motor driving the front wheels. It uses LFP (lithium iron phosphate) batteries in two sizes — 33.4 kWh or 42.3 kWh with claimed range of 320–425 km depending on the battery.
One important caveat on those figures: they are measured on China's CLTC cycle, which is even more generous than NEDC. Real-world range in Pakistani conditions heat, AC use, motorway speeds will be noticeably lower.
LFP chemistry is a sensible choice for Pakistan. It tolerates heat well and generally lasts through more charge cycles than many alternatives. As a city-focused EV, the T1 makes most sense for buyers with home charging; our guide to EV charging stations in Pakistan covers public options. Global details are on the official ARCFOX T1 specifications page (Chinese-language site).
Arcfox T5 REEV
The T5 is the more interesting of the two for Pakistan. It is a range-extended electric vehicle: the wheels are always driven electrically, and a 1.5L petrol engine acts only as a generator, charging the battery when it runs low.
Published figures claim 215 km of pure-electric range and 1,215 km combined. Peak output is 200 kW (268 hp) with 360 Nm, and a claimed 0–100 km/h in 6.5 seconds.
Charging is quick on paper too: 30–80% in 15 minutes on a suitable DC charger. Inside, it carries a 15.6-inch screen and Level 2 ADAS.
Full global specifications are on the official ARCFOX T5 specifications page (Chinese-language site). Pakistan-spec equipment may differ, so treat these as a guide until Sazgar confirms the local version.

EV vs REEV: What Is the Difference?
A pure EV, like the T1, runs only on its battery. Zero petrol, lowest running cost — but when the battery is empty, you need a charger.
A REEV, like the T5, also drives only on electricity, but carries a petrol engine that recharges the battery on the move. You get electric driving for daily trips and no range anxiety on long ones.
In Pakistan, where intercity charging is still patchy see our guide to EV charging stations on Pakistan motorways that flexibility counts for a lot. Our coverage of REEV cars explains why the format is gaining ground, and our REEV and PHEV comparison in Pakistan shows how it stacks up against plug-in hybrids.
Arcfox Pakistan Price and Booking
No Pakistan price has been announced for either model, and bookings have not opened. There is no official launch date yet.
The final price will depend heavily on whether the cars are imported or assembled locally, applicable duties on EVs and REEVs, and which battery and equipment levels Sazgar chooses for Pakistan. Until then, treat any figure you see as a guess.
How Arcfox Could Fit Pakistan's EV Market
The two models aim at different buyers. The T1 would join the growing group of compact city EVs, where price and charging access decide almost everything. The T5 would enter the range-extender space, which is still small in Pakistan but well suited to local conditions.
The questions that will matter most are the ones Sazgar has not yet answered: local assembly, dealer and service coverage, battery warranty and parts supply. For the broader picture, see our coverage of electric vehicles in Pakistan.
Final Thoughts
Arcfox Pakistan is confirmed in principle: Sazgar is bringing BAIC's new-energy brand, with the T1 EV and T5 REEV first and samples on the way. The T5's 215 km electric range and 1,215 km combined claim make it the one to watch for local conditions. Everything commercial price, booking, launch date, local assembly is still to come. When it does, our EV buying guide in Pakistan covers the checks worth doing before you commit.
