Charging infrastructure is rapidly improving in Bangladesh's major cities. Home charging using a standard 5A socket is available for all models (using the provided slow charger). Fast charging stations are expanding in Dhaka, with Ather, Ola, and third-party operators setting up points in commercial areas.
