Local Cars Sales Reach All Time High in Pakistan

The sales  of locally-made cars have reached all-time high level in Pakistan at 180,079 units with most of them concentrated among three automobile companies in the closing financial year of 2015-16, breaking the previous record of 164, 650 units sales set back in the financial year of 2008-07.

The impressive sales are excluding imported cars in Pakistan which have seen a significant bump in demand especially in the small cars segment.

Contributing factors for huge sales are the rising demand of passenger cars among public, Punjab Taxi Scheme (Apna Rozgar Scheme); facilitation environment such as car financing schemes by banks offering low interest rates;  lower petroleum prices globally and locally; and controlled prices of cars maintained by local automobiles.

According to statistics updated by Pakistan Automotive Manufacturers Association (PAMA), the overall passenger cars sales show a growth of 19 percent in the financial year 2015-16 compared with the previous financial year in which it stood at 151, 134 units.

1300 CC and Above Cars

The segment of high-end locally produced cars drove the overall sales of passenger cars as Toyota Corolla remains the first choice of Pakistan, which is also the bestselling brand in Pakistan.

Out of total cars sales of 180, 079, the sales of 1300CC and Above cars stood at 87, 258 units.

11000 CC Cars

Among mid-sized brands of passenger cars, locally –assemble Suzuki Cultus remained preferred choice with high sales. It is followed by WagonR, which also saw a significant popularity among public showing rising sales in Pakistan.

3Below 1000 CC

The brand of Suzuki Mehran is very old but it is the second bestselling in Pakistan being the only locally-manufactured cars in the small cars segment in Pakistan. A majority of people having limited affordability also go for imported cars from Japan and Thailand when it comes to small cars.

The growth in the sales of Suzuki Bolan was seen as this brand was part of the Punjab Apna Rozgar Scheme besides Suzuki Ravi Jeep.

3Sales and productions of Pak-Suzuki remain the highest in the financial year 2015-16 mainly because of Punjab Apna Rozgar Scheme which gave impetus to demand of its two brands—Suzuki Bolan and Suzuki Ravi.

Suzuki produces five brands in Pakistan in all segments compared with Toyota Indus and Honda which produced cars of Above 1300 CC.

  • that Header Image though.. wish Purestan actually had all those cars & you wouldn’t have to post that Malaysian parking lot picture. :P

    • It is indeed Puristan. You however do not have any posterity in your pedigree. It has still given space to your ancestors and you while you continue to take a jab at it just like an incestuous inbred skunk. Could you please bugger off? You are simply incapable of loyalty. Puristan will be better off without you.

      • A) its PURESTAN not PURISTAN.. B) used google translator for that thesarus? only if you used Google Images search prior to that.
        you so called “CUNTRY” ke thhekaidaar.

        • Yar aik tou tu ney virus zaka jaisi shakal banai hoi hai photo main ya phir usi ki lagai hoi hai aur ooper se baatien bhi dou takay wali kar raha hai. Halka ho ja thora. Pakistan motherland k baray main kuch na bol.

        • No, Google translator is what you used to understand what I said. And even with Google translator at your service, you wrote “thesarus” instead of “thesaurus”. Shows that spellings are not your strength anyway. Nothing will likely be sufficient to shut you down for good :) But I did do something to your putrid ego this time and reduced you to talking about merely a spelling. Things like you need to get an education to understand that nouns have no standard spelling.
          Why are you so serious about Google anyway? Did your dad use Google before naming you? ha, ha, and ha.
          Google cant be used to produce any piece of literary work like mine. Had this been possible, many like you would have passed themselves off as writers, literati and what not.
          “CUNTRY” should be the cun_ who gave birth to you. I am not her thaikedar (pimp). When it comes to COUNTRY however, I love it, and yes I am its thaikedarr. Miniatures with pint-sized ego do not understand what it means to love Pakistan. So, please do not exert your pea-sized brain. It might faint, and fall off into your skull due to exhaustion.
          Oh and I wish, I really do, that your dad had used a condom. You are the side effect of evolutionary process, and a failed experiment in mutation. Please stop gracing us with your presence. Havent I begged that already?

          • alright GOD OF THE LAND. don’t spread your tail in my space if you don’t like to be stepped on it. :)
