Master Motors whose Chinese Collaborator is Changan Automobiles is reportedly all geared up to assemble vans and passenger vehicles in Pakistan by April 2019 for the local customers, reports a local media outlet.
As per an industry analyst, the company has already got advance booking of its vehicles, and with the removal of the ban on non-filers, this was a high time for the company to start the assembly of its vehicles. Moreover, due to harsh new restrictions of importing vehicles into the country, the margin of sale for the new automakers is great.
After receiving the Greenfield investment status from the government, Master Motors officially signed the partnership agreement with Changan Motors on 29th June 2018. Changan Automobile is a Chinese automaker and is famous for manufacturing high-end SUVs and Sedans in China. Moreover, the joint venture will be investing the US $ 100 million in the local auto industry.
