misconception of most of indain is that they have cheaper cars there, but if you do a conversion, the cars cheaper in pakistan are cheaper(the one assembled here)..Post #56
Surely we have more options here in India, march this year I bought a Suzuki Swift VXI variant in my city and on road with taxes it cost me 6.25 Lacs INR.
Whether taxes or not but I can surely see that taxes and duties are very high in Pakistan and being a mid sized market local manufacturing is not in a very good shape. Most of the vital parts are imported that's why they are that expensive.
indian rupee is nearly twice as pakistani rupee
swift a completely new model will cost 13 lacs if brought today that is about 8 lac indian rupees, the reason why its so is that pakistan dont assemble swift, if you look at cars assembled in pakistan like mehran or corrola it comes out to be cheaper than indian counter part
the real problem is not cost , its lack of options and lack of quality.we just have 3-4 types of motor vehicles assembled in pakistan
