The country’s first “Made in Bangladesh” electric vehicle (EV) has been unveiled by Bangladesh Auto Industries Limited (BAIL), at an auto show in Dhaka.
At the exhibition, BAIL introduced three indigenous EV brands: MEV (four-wheel passenger and cargo vehicles), Glyder (motorbikes) and Otomax (three-wheelers). Multiple prototype models of each brand were displayed.
The company said it aims to offer affordable, environment-friendly, internationally standard locally manufactured EVs with a five-year warranty.
It also claimed that fuel and maintenance costs for consumers could be reduced by up to 80 percent through its EVs.
BAIL further stated that it will provide dedicated after-sales service and spare parts support to ensure a strong user experience. Product delivery is expected within three months, with pre-booking to start soon.
The company also expressed expectations that the upcoming national budget for 2026–27 would have a positive impact on locally manufactured vehicle pricing.
BAIL Managing Director Mir Masud Kabir said customer support and reliability are central to the company’s strategy.
“For us, the most important thing is providing customer support, and we will do our utmost to ensure the highest level of service and reliability,” he said.
