Auto financing in Pakistan has increased to Rs. 263 billion at the end of April, up from Rs. 236 billion in March, as buyers increasingly turn to bank leasing for new and used vehicles, according to latest data from the State Bank of Pakistan.
The trend of improving auto financing began in August 2024, when the total stood at Rs. 227.3 billion. However, it is still below the peak of Rs. 368 billion reached in June 2022.

Outstanding credit to the private sector reached Rs. 9.48 trillion in April.
