Indian Corolla is expensive than the Pakistani made one


Both Honda and Toyota‘s major export of parts to different parts of the world is done from Thailand and after the devastating floods had hit the country, export of parts was crippled and production of Toyota vehicles was stopped until, Toyota and Honda both asked its Indian companies to step up production of parts and deliver them around the world.

Now though, Toyota and Honda are both looking forward to making India as the major auto parts exporting hub.

“Quality and competitiveness are high in India. We are exporting as many as 56 critical engine and body components for the Brio from our facility in Tapukara, Rajasthan. Besides, some components for the Jazz and City are also being shipped from India”, said a senior executive at Honda Cars India.

“When the floods affected production in Thailand, we stepped up exports of components to our other Asian facilities from India. Revenues from component exports consequently doubled to Rs 229 crore over our initial estimates of Rs 112 crore last year. Apart from de-risking business, exports helps in countering the impact of adverse forex fluctuations”, said an executive with Honda Cars India (HCI).

Toyota has already invested a lot to expand their production of critical parts such as engines and transmission. Meanwhile in Pakistan, local auto assemblers have resorted to lame comparison to make their goodwill.

Paapam’s former chairman, Aamir A Allawala, said at a recent press conference that Pakistani cars are cheaper than most cars manufactured in India, Allawala claimed, adding 1,800cc Toyota Corolla is being sold in India for $16,334 (retail price excluding taxes) while the price of the same car in Pakistan is $13,253, lower by $3,081.

Including taxes, the retail price of Toyota Corolla in India is $26,744 while in Pakistan it is $19,781, a difference of $6,963.

Similarly, the retail price of 1,800cc Honda Civic in India he said was $19,216 (excluding all taxes) while the same car is being sold for $15,214 in Pakistan, a difference of $4,002, he said.

After including all taxes, the difference in prices of Honda Civic in Pakistan and India is $7,403. In India, Civic is being sold for $30,455 while it is available at $23,052 in Pakistan.

That’s a huge claim considering, Toyota and Honda, apart from having massive portfolios, both have launched India only cars which are built completely in India and is now, exporting those cars to as far as Brazil where it was recently launched.

The thing is allawala is taking all for a ride . Corolla comes in Quite a few Variations in India starting with on road price of 20598.83 USD to 28837.16 . He picked a high end figure and posted it with low end one and claimed Eureka 6k difference .

Plus he Skipped the quality part of manufacturing completely . Do i need to elaborate more ??
 
.
i think maybe the cost diff is due to enviromental laws, the India version has to comply with Bharat stage IV(similar to Euro IV) where as Pak is still struck with Euro II.

Same is the case with other cars i guess...:what:

Looks like OP forgot to read the line in bold. The article itself says that Pakistanis are giving lame excuse lol

OP can you please share the source of the article.

Why would anyone buy a cheap low quality car when one can buy the same high quality car at little more price?

if they tried to built cars on Indian standard they will become bankrupt and ended up in selling their plants to kabari wala.

Just googled the prices in India & Pak.

Pak : Rs

1.6 Altis M/T 1899000
1.6 Altis M/T SR 1994000
1.6 Altis A/T SR 2084000


India : INR 11.25000 to 15.75000

Can someone pls apply the value of Re of both countries and share a comparison ?
 
.
A price comparison on the face of it really won't give any insight. Since pricing depends on a lot of factors. E.g. Car prices in Germany is upto 45% higher than prices in the US ( e.g. a car like Jetta). Does that mean Germany has worse car industry than US?

The only thing the price difference tells us is that the Govt taxes more in India compared to Pakistan. Other than that unless you have the Cost of production of each vehicle (as compared Sale price mentioned here) this thread is pretty useless.
 
.
Manufacturing exporting and retail prices can have a high divergence.

Manufacturing price (excluding taxes/subsidies) depend on cost of material capital and labour. labour is small part of it cost of material is cheaper for most cars vs pakistan due to highly developed eco system.

The 1800cc cars have to pay a very high exise duty in india The excise is dependant on capacity of engine so many international version sell on a lower engine capacity in India.
Compare to US The car like Honda accord sell at almost double the price in India but the cheapest car in India is 2.5 times cheaper than the cheapest car in US.
Export is cheaper as they are excluded from excise.

Due to these factors the retail price of cars can have differential values not necessarily implying the competetiveness of the economy.
 
.
Corollas are yawn-inducing econo-boxes, IMO. Most Corollas in urban India are livery cabs, hotel courtesy vehicles, rental cars and the like. That's what boring Toyotas are good for anyway.

this is because our emission standards are higher.euro 4.

Does it matter? Both India and Pakistan have sub-par, shitty auto-sector.

Actually, I take my words back. Pakistan has none.

Whole Muslim world combine probably builds 5 to 6 million cars per year. (with Turkey/Iran/Indonesia producing like 70% of those...hah!)

China alone builds 13 million or something.

What a shame....

My signature sums it up all....
