Riddara RD6 - Pakistan’s First EV Truck Spotted in Karachi

Exciting developments are electrifying the streets of Karachi as Pakistan’s first electric truck, the Riddara RD6, has officially been spotted—signaling a bold leap into the future of Electric Commercial Vehicles Pakistan. Introduced by Capital Smart Motors (CSM) and manufactured by Radar Auto, a subsidiary of Geely Auto Group, this much-anticipated vehicle is set to spearhead the Pakistan EV Truck Launch. The Riddara Electric Truck marks a historic milestone for the local auto industry and is expected to hit the roads officially by August or September.

Although CSM has yet to unveil the exact specifications for the Pakistani variant, the model being imported as a Completely Built Unit (CBU) closely resembles the international version. For now, let’s explore what the global specs of this advanced Electric Truck Pakistan have to offer.

Global Dimensions & Design

The Riddara RD6 Truck stands out with its bold styling and functional design. This All-Electric Truck Karachi variant is 5,260 mm long, 1,900 mm wide, and 1,880 mm tall. It comes with a generous cargo bed measuring 1,525 mm × 1,450 mm × 540 mm. The 3,120 mm wheelbase and 225 mm ground clearance ensure stability and mild off-road readiness, making it ideal for both urban and rugged environments.

On the exterior, it features signature "RIDDARA" illuminated grille branding, modern LED headlights with DRLs, and sleek LED taillights. Convenience-focused features include power-adjustable and heated mirrors, side steps, trailer hook, a pull-out ladder on the tailgate, an electric trunk release, and an aluminium roof rack. Automatic wipers also add to its premium touches.

Electric Power & Performance

Under the hood, the Riddara Electric Truck boasts a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor with a peak output of 315 kW and a torque of 595 Nm. Acceleration from 0–100 km/h takes just 4.5 seconds, placing it among the quickest EV Trucks in Pakistan. The 86 kWh ternary lithium battery offers an impressive 455 km NEDC driving range.

Charging flexibility includes fast DC charging (30–80%) at 100 kW within 32 minutes, while home AC charging (20–100%) at 6.6 kW takes about 11 hours. The truck also supports regenerative braking, enhancing range and efficiency.

Interior Features & Comfort

Inside, the Riddara RD6 Truck pampers with synthetic leather seats, a 10.2-inch LCD instrument panel, and a 6-inch floating infotainment display. Both front seats offer 6-way electric adjustability. The truck is equipped with an electric power steering system, a multi-function steering wheel, and premium audio supported by Wi-Fi, Carbit Link, Apple CarPlay, AM/FM radio, and voice control.

Comfort is further enhanced with dual-zone automatic climate control, rear air vents, CN95-grade filters, and a 5-layer air purification system. Other highlights include a 50W wireless phone charger, smart key with keyless entry, ISOFIX child seat anchor points, one-touch powered windows, seat ventilation, and multiple drive modes including Sport, Comfort, Economy, Sand, Mud, Off-road, and Wading.

Safety Technology & Assistance Systems

Safety-wise, the First Electric Truck Pakistan sets a high bar. It includes ICC intelligent cruise control, AEB autonomous emergency braking, ACC adaptive cruise, LDW lane departure warning, LKA lane keeping, BSD blind spot detection, RCTA & RCTB rear cross traffic alerts, RCW rear collision warning, and 540° surround view camera with transparent chassis.

More safety systems include EPB (electronic parking brake), ESC (stability control), HDC/HHC for hill control, EBA (brake assist), TCS (traction control), FDA (front departure alert), and DOW (door opening warning). Other features include a child lock, airbag system, tire pressure monitoring, and seatbelt reminders.

The Riddara RD6 Karachi appearance clearly marks a game-changing moment in the realm of Electric Vehicle Truck Pakistan. As the Pakistan EV Truck Launch draws near, excitement builds for this futuristic addition to the lineup of EV Trucks in Pakistan. If CSM maintains the global standards, the Riddara RD6 could redefine expectations for Electric Commercial Vehicles Pakistan.
