Pak Suzuki Motor Company Limited (PSMC) has increased the prices of its bikes for the 4th time this year. The 1st price hike occurred back in January, the 2nd came in July, the third one happened a couple of months ago, and the latest one happens to be the 4th.
Previously, the automaker cited the depreciating local currency and the COVID-19 induced drop in the sales to be the reason for the price bump to meet the operational expenses. However, the business has picked up in recent months following the easing of lockdowns and so has the value of the local currency, yet the prices continue to go up.

It is said that greed has no limit. These three companies in Pakistan honda, yamaha and suzuki having govt hand on their shoulders doing extensive damage to locomotive market. Understanding Pakistans people mind set that this nation is always having inferiority complex and for show up they can go up to every limit these three motorcycle manufacturers taking full advantage and looting with both hands. Thanks to China who brought motorcycles to poor mans access. I say people should boycott these companies who in the name of fake quality and material making the nation fool and looting.
