Faw V2 Pakistan Launch

[abid110]

we have a mentality of not accepting change. i remember Dewan introducing Spectra and Kia Classic...both were really great cars (Classic being very old looking but very tough and easy to maintain thing) but see what happened! naa sirf factory ko taala laga, balkay company bhi bandd...jab k our country still admire a 80's shaped Mehran in 2014 (and counting..) which has no luxury/options..!
i find this FAW car to be a flop and extremely low sales..seriously, why would we invest 1million on a thing which have no guarantee of existence in future? let us not compare it with Swift - wo Pak Suzuki ki car hai...ye company agar gadha gari me engine fit kr de tou wo bhi log khushi khushi 5 lac me le lenge..

[imranafzal4]

Tough time for a new company to enter in a market in which no competition, GM, Chevrolet Out of the market, then why we expect from FAW? People immediately compare with Vitz 1.0 and Swift, Cultus and reject this, even they don't consider the life importance and Safty feather which offered, and people also ignore the used and new car difference, people prefer 6 years old Vitz / 3 year Old swift with 80,000 on ODO on THis new model, if these Chinese brand put low price then we said its cheap so quality is not up to the mark, if they put reasonable price then we said too much costly, Yahan kuch nai ho sakta, Suzuki capture Low and Middle class, Corolla capture the commercial, Rural and Upper middle class and Honda capture Urban High salaried segment, so no competition at all...

[imranafzal4]

I think the only way to enter the market is basically 0% market to some level, same as Suzuki enter in 2 wheeler market, they offer flexible payment plans and in result now from last 3 4 years Suzuki bikes existence on road improved, they offered 50% down payment and rest of payment in next 1 year or 6 month without any Mark Up%, so people just sold their existing Bike and pay 50% down payment, same idea can be worked for FAW, they can put 70% down payment (Appx 7 Lakh) and rest of payment in 1 year Equally Installment With 0% markup or max 5% then people will think and consider this option, Even Mehran's Buyer will consider this, and after 2 3 years if the quality is good then this model will be successful model in this price range

to all it doesnt matter if its chinese or japanese , after all you all have some thing in your home or in your car a chinese component. people are buying new things. look at strange shaped jap cars selling like hotcakes. it will definitely sell more with time. i prefer it over cultus , santro, alto , mehran, wagon R by looking at features and also prefer it over swift, used vitz by looking at its price.
quality of this car will be judged by some 1 who uses it for atleast 1 year. right now interior plastic is equal to city's interior plastic.right now its best value for money. not ugly, good features, and who needs parts change within first 3 years of a brand new cars.
you people should avoid honda and toyota monoply , instead every 2nd thread is about my new grande, my new civic, my new city.

[usama1]

As hyundai santro did in 2000....0% mark up...and on easy installments...and now see how many santros we see on the road...it was a complete flop in start but after introducing it on installments...it got a super hit...i dont know what marketing analysist and marketing ppl of chevy, cherry and Faw is doing...they have a great presitence to follow of above mentioned companies...but completly keeping thwir eyes closed...

Just like Chinese and Pakistan made bikes faced criticism then sold like hot cakes. Well with all those features and still better quality then same league car it's absolutely top notch. XPV proved it self way before. Still performance, price and build quality a side which is good in all ways comparing to bolan. XPV still having hard time having resale value. Still it's just matter of time that the nation understands what thy getting in that sort of money vs what they were having in same league by the old elephants occupying the PKdm market.

Forgetting the 150% import duty + freight rate + passport + clearance fee = still FAW presenting the V2 cheaper.
As it is made in Pakistan with no compromise on quality, safety, warranty, parts availability.
Yes, it is a marriage between two vehicles as per Chinese traditions still at least some one interested in investing in PKdm regarding the issues Pakistan facing.
On personal level I'm not sure about the V2 but by god they did a good job with the XPV. Sirus looks going no where and waiting for the 2 door pickup truck that would have some potential if launched on reasonable price quote.

With all respect I do understand you guys being on the same page. Still on personal note, I don't think it's because of the government. What I think is that the international and even the local media has portrait Pakistan in such a way that who would like to invest in Pakistan?
My cousins from UK, US, Canada calls us asking "Omg are u guys okay we heard this XYZ happened" and we are like "No, everything is fine"
Other then that, in movies like GI Joe, iron man, Olympus has fallen etc Pakistan has been stated as a terrorist and weak country who needs help. Fact of the matter with heavy heart we have lost quite a respect among international market.
Thank God for companies like FAW, huawei, Oppo still wiling to invest where as they have a pretty big market just across the border on north.

Exactly ..better in every way.except (pak people's fav :-P) resale .
People should start trusting new brands, its the only way the trust builds on brand and its makes resale better.
