List of Cars With 1000cc and Smaller Engine

After the new reduced customs duty on 1000cc cars in Pakistan, you must be thinking about the car models whose prices are expected to decrease. Here is the list of 1000cc and smaller engine new cars available in Pakistan.

Conclusion

A reduction in prices is going to help companies to reduce the prices of cars in the 1000cc or smaller engine category. The sales of all major automobile companies in Pakistan had decreased significantly in 2022 compared to 2021 as per the latest PAMA car sales report. If the companies pass down the benefit (which they should), their sales are likely to get a boost. Many people were forced to buy used cars in Pakistan due to frequent increases in car prices in 2022.

It is worth mentioning that The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has also eased the sanctions on the import of CKDs for car assemblers in Pakistan from 2-Jan-2023. These decisions indicate that the government is finally trying to give some relief to medium-income people who mostly buy 1000cc or smaller-engine cars.
