PAPS 2022 – Locally Assembled Scooters Displayed

The Pakistan Auto Parts Show (PAPS) has concluded after a successful 3-day event. Held from the 29th to 31st of July, the event saw a footfall of thousands, with well over a hundred stalls and companies.  New Asia was on the scene with their selection of two-wheelers and three-wheelers, both electric and petrol. New Asia was also offering test drives on their locally assembled scooters with a stall that displayed hanging motorbikes and an electric-blue electric scooter on a rotating platform.

History of the Company

Founded in 2002, New Asia started by making body parts and accessories for the Vespa Piaggio, a major stalwart on the roads of Pakistan. They then branched out into assembling local parts for 75, 100, and 125cc motorbikes, which were also supplied to major companies at the time.

In 2009, New Asia introduced its own line of CNG rickshaws, to which the public responded favorably over its competitors. Following this success, the company then started producing motorbikes and cargo loaders. Over the years, New Asia garnered a reputation as a name of trust, particularly for their durability and overall finish.

Locally Assembled Scooters

New Asia is introducing its Ramza series of scooters, built completely from locally assembled parts – staying true to the “Made in Pakistan” theme of the event. 

According to Mr. Asad Ali Rizvi – GM Sales and Marketing – the company “spent three years in research and development” before working on the scooters. Offered in both petrol and electric variants, the scooters in design are essentially modern Vespas. The logo – which resembles the original Vespa logo – carries the name Ramza, after the company’s chairman. Regarding the paint job, the company claims it comes in a wide variety of palettes, including electric blue, vivid pink, and sky blue.

Rizvi believes the future is electric and says that more and more EVs should be introduced in Pakistan, citing petrol price hikes as a justifiable reason. He further states that the country is in dire need of electric bikes and rickshaws, both needs that New Asia is currently attending to.

What do you think of New Asia’s decision? Will you consider buying them? Which color, in particular, captured your fancy?
