About
Palki Motors

Bangladesh's first electric vehicle manufacturer. Building affordable EVs for 600,000+ ride-sharing drivers.

01

Our Mission

We're making electric mobility accessible for Bangladesh's 600,000+ ride-sharing drivers. Our vehicles cost 52% less to operate over 5 years compared to CNG alternatives.

We are not just building cars — we are building an ecosystem. This includes innovative EVs, accessible financing, a robust charging network, and data-driven insights to optimize performance and earnings.

"We started with $200,000 — money that could have bought a house. Instead, we invested it in building Bangladesh's first electric car. Because we believed that if we could make it work for one driver, we could make it work for 600,000."

— Mustafa Momin, CEO
