Indus Motors Company (IMC) had previously hinted at an increase in the prices of its cars. Now that the rupee has devalued even further, the company has announced massive price increases for its Corolla, Fortuner and Hilux vehicles. This is the second time the automaker will increase its car prices after January 2018.
The increase in price will not only hit new customers, but also those who have already booked their cars with the company a few months ago.
This announcement was already made by Indus Motors Company’s Chief Executive Officer Ali Asghar Jamali during a media workshop in Muzaffarabad, Azad Kashmir. The prices weren’t announced back then, but the company has now unveiled the new prices.
