Silence the noise of rising fuel prices. The Metro M6 Empower isn’t just a scooter; it is a declaration of independence from the petrol pump. As Pakistan shifts gears toward a greener future, Metro E-Vehicles has introduced a machine designed specifically for the urban jungle. With Swedish paint technology, a graphene-based heart, and a silent 1200W motor, the M6 Empower is here to redefine how you navigate the chaotic streets of Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad. Whether you are a student, a daily commuter, or just tired of engine maintenance, this is the breakdown you need.
1. Performance & Powertrain: The Electric Heart
The M6 Empower is built for the city. It doesn’t roar; it glides. At its core lies a 1200W DC brushless motor paired with a sophisticated 12-tube controller. This setup ensures that while you won’t be drag racing on the highway, you will have instant torque to zip through traffic signals.
Battery Tech (The Game Changer)
Unlike older lead-acid batteries, the M6 uses a 72V 26Ah TTFAR graphene battery.
- Why it matters: Graphene technology allows for better heat management, longer lifecycles, and non-flammable safety properties.
- Range: It delivers an impressive 95-100 km per charge, meaning the average commuter only needs to charge it once every 2-3 days.
- Top Speed: 45-50 km/h, which is the sweet spot for safety and efficiency on Pakistani service roads and city streets.
2. Design & Build Quality: Swedish Engineering
Metro M6 didn’t just slap plastic together; they focused on longevity. The scooter is built on a CAE-optimised cold-rolled structural steel frame, vibration-tested over 1 million cycles to withstand our rough road conditions.
- The “Forever New” Look: The bodywork features paint imported from Sweden using Berker Technology. After a 9-step spray process and 800 hours of ageing tests, this paint is designed to resist scratches and fading, keeping the bike looking showroom-fresh for years.
- Ergonomics: With a moderate seat height and a 360 mm pedal area, it offers ample legroom and a comfortable posture for riders of all heights.

5. Maintenance Guide: Keep It Running
To ensure your M6 lasts a decade, follow these simple rules:
- Charging Hygiene: Use only the original charger. Avoid leaving it at 100% charge for days if not in use.
- Tyre Pressure: Electric motors are sensitive to drag; keep tyres inflated to the recommended PSI to maximise range.
- Brake Care: Check pads every 3 months. Since the bike is silent, you will hear squeaking brakes immediately—don’t ignore it.
- Weather Protection: While water-resistant, avoid pressure washing the dashboard or battery compartment directly.
6. Competitors: How Does It Stack Up?
The Pakistani EV market is heating up. Here is how the M6 compares:
- Evee C1: The main rival. The C1 has a distinct retro design but similar range specs. The M6 often wins on build quality (steel frame) and paint finish.
- Jolta JE-70D: Looks like a traditional 70cc bike. While Jolta is cheaper, the M6 offers a much more modern “scooter” experience with better storage and comfort.
- Yadea T5: A more premium option. Yadea offers a slightly better fit and finish but usually comes with a significantly higher price tag than Metro.
7. The Verdict & Price
Is the Metro M6 Empower worth buying in 2026?
Absolutely. If your daily travel is within the city limits and under 80 km, this scooter is a financial lifesaver. It eliminates the anxiety of weekly petrol price hikes and offers a refined, comfortable ride.
Price in Pakistan (2026 Estimates)
Prices fluctuate due to the dollar rate and import policies, but here is the current market estimation:
- Price in PKR: Rs. 220,000 – Rs. 260,000 (Market Average)
- Running Cost: Approx. Rs. 1.5 – 2.0 per KM (Electricity cost)
How much electricity does the Metro M6 Empower consume for a full charge?
The Metro M6 Empower takes approximately 2.5 to 3 units of electricity for a full charge. At current domestic electricity rates in Pakistan, a full charge costs between Rs. 150 and Rs. 200, providing a range of up to 100 km. This is significantly cheaper than petrol.
Do I need a driving licence and registration for the Metro M6?
Yes. Since the Metro M6 Empower features a 1200W motor and reaches speeds of 50 km/h, it falls under the category of motor vehicles that require proper registration with the Excise & Taxation department and a valid motorcycle driving licence to operate legally on main roads.
Can the Metro M6 Empower handle double riding (two passengers)?
Yes, the scooter is designed with a sturdy cold-rolled steel frame and a spacious seat to accommodate two adults. However, please note that riding with a heavy pillion (passenger) will slightly reduce the top speed and total range per charge.
How long does the battery last before it needs replacement?
The TTFAR graphene battery is designed for longevity and typically lasts for 1,000+ charging cycles. With average daily use, the battery life is expected to be around 3 to 4 years. Metro offers an 18-month warranty on the battery for peace of mind.
Is the Metro M6 waterproof? Can I ride it in the rain?
The Metro M6 Empower is water-resistant (IP67-rated components), meaning it can handle light to moderate rain and splashes safely. However, it is not recommended to drive through deep standing water or flooded streets, as submerging the motor or battery compartment can cause electrical damage
