About a week ago, Suzuki increased the price for nearly all of its available cars in Pakistan, including all Mehran variants. Experts believe that the increase in Mehran’s price came as a consequence of a massive 53% drop in Pak-Suzuki profits during the past 9 months.
Effective from 10th April, the Suzuki Mehran has received yet another noticeable price hike.

New Mehran Models Get Price Hike
Following the Rs. 5,000 increase last week, Suzuki Mehran’s both VX and VXR variants are seeing an increase of Rs. 24,000 this time.
The new prices of all Mehran models (inclusive of price hike) are mentioned below:
- Mehran VX = PKR 679,000
- Mehran VXR = PKR 732,000
- Mehran VX CNG = PKR 749,000
- Mehran VXR CNG = PKR 802,000
New Security Feature
This time, however, Suzuki has introduced a new feature alongside the price surge. All Mehran variants will now come with an Immobilizer.
An immobilizer is an electronic security device which prevents the car’s ignition from working until the original key (or a token) is present. This makes it nearly impossible for thieves to hot-wire a car.
An immobilizer or immobilizer key generally has an RF identification transponder which is verified automatically upon car ignition.
Suzuki hasn’t released any information regarding SRS airbags. This is important to mention because both immobilizer and SRS airbags features were made compulsory with the auto policy last year and companies were forced to incorporate such safety features. It seems that Suzuki is finally adding these features to conform with the new policy. It is hoped that the addition of SRS bags is also incorporated in their cars in the near future.
With the Mehran VXR touching 800,000 and noticeable price increase in the past few months, the car will become a tough sell since, at this price range, most imported Japanese cars have it beat on all fronts.
Good
Bought a Mehran VXR just 1 week back. Didn’t see any security system ?
well said!
I bought a second-hand suzuki cultus from Pakwheels.com, far greater value for money to be honest and I’m a previous mehran owner.
Hats Off to leave Mehran :
Es ko sale kar ke pateesa kha lena chahy insan ko, pata nahe log ku es fazol gari ko purchase karte han, boycott kar dena chahy es gari ka to.
It’s because they have no other option.
The Japanese cars may although seem to be good value, but the simple fact is that most areas of pakistan are remote enough that japanese car parts availability is a problem as compared to Pakistan-assembled counterparts.
Now a days, it is not a problem I think. There are number of famous japanese car models and parts of them are easily available. Second thing is that mostly japanese car owners are sophisticated enough that they don’t need for parts.
it is just a mentality factor otherwise no logical reason to purchase a car like Mehran
You do have a point there.
You’re right. 4 se 5 lakh ke darmiyan used mein Alto mil jati he jo Mehran se 100 guna zyada comfortable he. Mehran mein to khoti rehri wala shock system laga huwa he, leaf suspension kehtay hein usay I think.
Aor tez speed par chalany se Mehran car mein turbulence bohut aati he, yani gari tarapna shoro ho jati he. Ye is liye ke gari ki shape streamlined nahi he aor high speed par air drag ki force imbalance hoti he is par.
Leaf suspension? Asan lafzon main “Kamaani”.
Kamaani :-D

Lol han yehi hai “Kamaani”
Spring suspension
u sir have been looted…might as well could have bought a khota gari.. sasti bhi and has the same features as mehran.
In jaisay logon ki waja say hi aaj Pakistan mein 30 saal purani mehran bik rahi hai.
Absolutely agreed
If suzuki had offered new models in past years, they wouldnt have been in a tough position like they are today. Now investment cost would be too much higher to introduce new models and keeping in view the junk they had been selling with absolutely rubbish after sales services i would say to be better off with japanese import.
humarey loog agar sirf aik Mahinay k liye inka kachra lena band kar dain tou aqal dhikanay ajaye gi inki aur qeematien berhana tou dur ki baat ulta ghatana shuru kar dain ge.
If : Hamary Log !
i bought a new brand new mehran and saled out very next day. Thanks. Suzuki
Bhai yeh purchase karne wala mashwara kis azeem aadmi ne dia tha?
Khawab Main Dada G Aye the :
aare sir you are back :-) Welcome back… Just checked your profile, its been around 40 minutes you have started commenting on ProPk again and you have already added around 19-20 messages. Good going (Y) 2min/comment seems like you are busy with your office work!
Lol. Main, KMQ aur woh ?
LOL
Har comment pey nazar :-D
Hadd hai yar… Pata nai wo kon log hoty hain jo Mehra ly laity hain. Bhai agar itni zor say mehran ayi hoi hoti hai to 1, 2 maah wait kar k thory say paisy aur jorr kay japani car lay leni chahiye.

Be a Pakistani Man !
All Industrialist gives Brand New Mehran to his employee :
Khawaja sb hr koi eik do maah mein itny paisy nahin chaap skta. Logg kayi saal paisy jorny k bd gaari lety hain.
suzuki can have big stick from my side
Ab mjh jaisy kisi ka agr budget hi 3 lac ho tu woh bechara yehi le skta hai naan.
khota gari sasti hai, aur mehran say behtar. thandi hawa bhi lagti hai agr chatri lga lo to
Funny. My point was Suzuki is benefiting from the miseries of people. Due to this point Mehran Resale Value will never drop unless some other Auto Players introduces a better but in same price alternative.
Bhai phir pedal chal le bnda.
Say No to Suzuki Mehran !
Where you have been ?
Bus Kuch Nahi !
Holidays Pe tha Aaamir Bhai Se Permission Le K Gaya tha :
Holidays Khatam now i am in working position !,.
Bhai logon
Bought it only because of two reasons
Resale value
Parts available
P. S Through Bank it costed me 9.30 lakh
Sharif say bachay hotay tou Mehran kabhi na letey tum. Sari awam ko perishan kar diya hai tum nay.
Did I knock your door to read my comments?
Yar aik tou hutiyapay ka kaam kia hai tum nay oper say logon se sorry karnay k bajaye, bhes kar rahay ho. Propak users ko itna perishan kabhi nahi dekha mainay jitna tumharay Mehran leney pe huwey hain. Maafi maango sub se.

All Japanese, upto 10 years old models can be leased out now, from all major banks.
u were jst saying that we shud NOT buy frm banks
Your words reflect your brought up. Go and sue Suzuki instead of blaming. You better start saving money and buy Audi for your self.

O bhai ye awam nahi sudharne wali. Iss qoum ko kabhi mil k kisi ka bhi dimagh thikanay lagana nhi ae ga chahay wo politicians hon ya koi pvt. company. Sab isi trah apni bajwa k khush hain.
Energy Zaya nahin krni lakin Fazool mashwary hr jagah batny hain.
You can give your point of view but you should not call anyone stupid because he thinks differently.
Bhai typical of you :). See from his view point who has INVESTED and brought this Chaand Gari,, what you suppose he will do now? bank will never let him go anywhere till he pay it all. #SavingHisDecision ,, aasaan alfaaz mai #Ta’sal’lee :)
yhyyyy….lets celebrate… #MyFirstCarSuzuki ;)
Innocent Pakistanis will still buy Mehran to support the looting of Suzuki
Purchasing Mehran is not innocence, it is a foolish decision I believe
can any1 tell me k i booked my car 2mnths back and the expctd dlvry dt was 2nd april but still it has not cm due to this upgrade…will i hv to pay the new price or they will dlvr on the previous price?
