By now regular readers would have already guessed the purpose of this article, we try to cover this topic on a recurring basis to list down current premium (ranges) on vehicles offered by local auto manufacturers in Pakistan. We start off with sales figures of May 2017, car sales have inched closer to a new high of 19,000 units for the month of May 2017. The total OEM sales leaped up by +25%YoY to 183,142 units during May‐17 as compared to the same time period from the previous year.

IGI Securities mentioned in their report that Pak-Suzuki registered a sale of 11,131 units, Indus Motors registered a sale of 4929 units, followed by Honda Atlas with 4,660 units sold in the month of May 2017.

Thus we come to our next point, as per some industry analysts, car sales for 2016-17 are expected to register 270,000 units with imports amounting to 60,000 cars. Pakistan is the 6th largest populated country with  half of its population living below 30 years. More importantly, car penetration stands at as low as 13 vehicles per 1000 persons and an increasing per capita income Pakistan offers huge potential for growth to global car-makers.
