With petrol prices continuing to rise in Pakistan, more people are considering switching to electric bikes as a cost-effective alternative. Over the past few years, brands such as Evee, Revoo, Road Prince, Metro, Yadea and Vlektra have gained popularity as consumers gradually become more comfortable with electric two-wheelers.
Among the available options, the Evee Sqube has managed to attract attention for its stylish design, practical specifications and competitive price. While Evee offers a wide range of electric bikes, not every model stands out in terms of value for money. However, the Sqube appears to be one of the company’s most balanced offerings, combining an attractive design, decent performance and a reasonable price.
At first glance, the Evee Sqube hardly looks like a conventional electric bike. Its aggressive styling and premium appearance make it resemble a modern sports motorcycle rather than a battery-powered commuter.
Considering its price, the Sqube is arguably one of the best-looking electric bikes available in Pakistan. It carries a price tag of Rs240,000, making it significantly more affordable than many premium electric motorcycles that cost well above Rs400,000.
Performance and battery
The Evee Sqube is powered by a 2,000-watt electric motor paired with a 72V 38Ah CHILWEE Graphene battery.
According to the company, the bike offers:
- Top speed: 65 km/h
- Maximum range: Up to 90 kilometres on a full charge
- Charging time: 7 to 8 hours
These specifications place it among the stronger contenders in its category, especially for urban commuting.
Build quality and warranty
Owners have generally appreciated the bike’s build quality, saying it feels solid rather than resembling a lightweight plastic scooter. The comfortable riding position and well-cushioned seat also make it suitable for daily commuting without causing discomfort on longer rides.
Evee also provides the following warranty coverage:
- Motor: 12 months
- Battery: 20 months or 15,000 kilometres
- Controller: 6 months
- Frame: 24 months
- Charger: 3 months
Is Evee Sqube worth the price?
The Evee Sqube is priced at Rs240,000, which may initially seem expensive. However, when compared with current motorcycle prices in Pakistan, the figure becomes more reasonable.
Many Chinese petrol-powered motorcycles now start at around Rs120,000, while the widely popular Honda CD70 costs approximately Rs170,000. Considering the long-term savings on fuel and relatively lower maintenance costs, spending more on an electric bike could be a sensible investment for many buyers—provided the manufacturer offers reliable after-sales service.
Things to consider before buying an electric bike
Anyone planning to purchase an electric bike should research thoroughly before making a decision. Buyers should consider:
- Battery type and quality
- Real-world riding range
- Charging time
- Build quality
- Availability of spare parts
- Warranty coverage
- Customer reviews and owner experiences
- After-sales service network
Electric bikes may not suit everyone, especially riders who regularly travel long distances. Some people are still hesitant to rely entirely on battery-powered motorcycles, but with fuel prices remaining high, electric bikes offer significant savings in running costs. They are also quieter, require less maintenance and eliminate the need to visit petrol stations.
The Evee Sqube is particularly well suited for people who travel relatively short distances each day, such as commuting to work, college or school. With a practical riding range of around 80 to 90 kilometres, most urban riders are unlikely to experience range anxiety.
Overall, the Evee Sqube stands out as one of the better all-round electric bikes available in Pakistan. Its modern styling, respectable performance, comfortable ride and competitive price make it a strong option for anyone looking to switch from a conventional petrol-powered motorcycle to an electric alternative.
