Punjab has taken a major step towards a cleaner, smarter, and more sustainable transport system through the launch of the Chief Minister Punjab E-Taxi Scheme 2025. This forward-looking initiative introduces electric taxis (E-Taxis) into the province’s urban transport network, making eco-friendly mobility accessible to both individuals and fleet operators.
Unlike traditional transport loans, the Punjab Government is offering interest-free financing, equity contribution, and free vehicle registration, making it easier for drivers and businesses to own their own electric vehicles. This program is not just about cars—it is about building an entire electric vehicle ecosystem that reduces pollution, empowers drivers, and prepares Punjab for the future of mobility.
Why the Punjab E-Taxi Scheme Matters

-
Environmentally Responsible – Every electric taxi on the road reduces fuel use and helps cut down harmful emissions.
-
Economically Friendly – With zero interest on loans and long-term repayment plans, ownership becomes affordable.
-
Inclusive Opportunities – Special quota and higher equity contribution for female drivers encourages women’s participation in the workforce.
