The Pakistani electric two-wheeler segment has been buzzing with activity, yet none of the foreign-sourced vehicles have truly stood out as viable replacements for petrol motorcycles. Mode Mobility’s C-Series seeks to change that narrative. Designed specifically for urban commuters, the C320 First Edition motorcycle combines local sourcing, sustainable manufacturing, and frugal design principles to deliver an electric 2-wheeler tailored to the needs of everyday Pakistani riders.
By addressing the shortcomings of imported alternatives, the C-Series positions itself as the leading contender to revolutionize two-wheeled urban mobility in Pakistan.
The Mode C-Series is, first and foremost, a testament to Mode Mobility’s ability to design and engineer a motorcycle entirely from scratch in Pakistan. Drawing on their automotive design experience, including racing in Formula Student, Mode Mobility’s founders sought to showcase the untapped potential of Pakistani engineers and designers leveraging local resources.
Mode Mobility’s emphasis on practical, functional design is evident in the C320’s core features. Its removable 2kWh battery allows urban commuters to recharge conveniently anywhere, addressing a common pain point in electric vehicle ownership.
Powered by a 3kW hub motor, the C320 delivers performance that transforms the electric riding experience. With a top speed of 85 km/h, riders can confidently keep up with city traffic, overtake heavy vehicles, and climb steep flyovers or parking ramps with ease.
The 80 km range provides enough coverage to travel from Sea View to Malir Cantt in Karachi—or from GPO to Bahria Town in Lahore—and back on a single charge, ensuring convenience for daily commutes and errands.
The combination of motor power, speed, and best-in-class braking enhances the overall riding experience. Hydraulic disc brakes on both wheels—240mm rotors at the front and 220mm at the rear—work seamlessly with the C320’s speed and dynamics to offer unmatched safety and control. This integrated performance gives riders confidence, whether navigating city traffic, overtaking large vehicles, or handling steep inclines.
Large, locally sourced tires ensure durability across varied road conditions, while the bike’s simple, no-frills design makes maintenance straightforward and cost-effective. The tubular steel exo-skeleton frame offers exceptional structural rigidity, eliminates the need for plastic body panels, and is easy to repair if damaged.
The C320’s step-through design is another feature that sets it apart, making it accessible to a wider population, including women. In a country where traditional motorcycle designs can pose challenges, the step-through frame enables more women to ride comfortably and confidently. By addressing these societal barriers, Mode Mobility is championing inclusivity and creating opportunities for more people to benefit from electric two-wheelers.
Additionally, the open frame of the C320 allows for convenient storage options, including the addition of a 35L bag. This increases cargo capacity, making it easier for urban commuters to carry personal items or groceries—a huge advantage for those looking for practicality alongside mobility.
A cornerstone of the C320’s design is its use of locally available parts, making it affordable to produce and easy to maintain. Mode Mobility prioritized sourcing high-wear components—like wheels, tires, and brakes—from local suppliers, ensuring these parts are readily available and cost-effective for customers to replace.
For Mode Mobility, sustainability isn’t just about electric power; it’s about designing products that last. By choosing locally sourced, replaceable components, the C320 supports a sustainable lifecycle, reducing waste and keeping costs down for users.
The C320’s journey—from being designed, engineered, certified, and now produced by a bootstrapped Pakistani company—is a remarkable achievement that every Pakistani can take pride in. More than just a motorcycle, it represents a bold step toward replacing petrol-powered two-wheelers with a cleaner, more efficient alternative tailored to the needs of urban riders. Mode Mobility’s factory doubles as their showroom, offering a unique opportunity for prospective buyers to experience the product and witness the craftsmanship behind its creation.
Priced at Rs. 330,000 with a 3-year warranty for the bike, electric motor and its long-lasting lithium-ion battery, the bike has all the ingredients to take on the petrol motorcycles in Pakistan.

With the C-Series, Mode Mobility combines local sourcing, rugged performance, and affordability to address the challenges of urban commuting in Pakistan.
