Thats really good , others should follow suit

[sohaibshaddy1]

They were already selling, especially, the H6 HEV at such a profit margin that to bring it now with growing competitive market, they decided to not increase the price.

Regardless, these peeps are strategizing wisely as opposed to the buffoons at Lucky

[tech_wiz]

Credit where due, thats very good news for people looking to book Haval. Goes a long way in establishing reputation and trust.

Had an inkling they wouldn't increase prices that much after the new competition, and specially after they were the first ones to offer reduced cost repairs earlier this year for those affected by the hailstorm in Islamabad.

But didn't expect that they wouldn't increase them at all. This is great for consumers and great for Sazgar as well due to the marketing buzz it would generate and likely win over more people who were probably considering the Sportage or Tuscon.

[zee5han]

They will have to pay the taxes so technically THEY REDUCED THE EX FACTORY PRICES by the tax value to retain them where they are

[darthvader]

Great move, but also highlights the sheer amount of margins built into these prices. Kia was able to reduce Sportage by 18 lac just casually in a single go.

Please do not talk about the sheer margins of local assemblers. You have no idea how oppressed and innocent our local assemblers are. Just ask a famous auto youtuber who would explain to you at lengths how much taxes and duties Indus Toyota CEO has to pay to produce and sell a Toyota Fortuner, and those poor but caring souls are left with no choice but to pay from their own pocket on every consumer sale just to keep its price tag at Rs 21 Mn or so. Companies such as these need to be praised and rewarded for their sheer patriotism.

[waqasahmed03]

partially true. But, there is another side. Companies like indus which are using old obsolete engines like 2.7v for fortuenr and 1.6/1.8 for corolla must have done casting inhourse. But they are still importing huge chunk as CKD and have to pay duties.

[usman19854]

Tbvh, you've to build huge margins in such a low volume market

The market is doing same volumes it was doing almost 10 years back but now with 3x the options, of course everything costs a ton

[pwuser15238026645]

Does anyone have the facelift H6 2.0T? What is the real life fuel economy with 9 speed DCT?

[pwuser16167916698]

The owned is busy marketing this shit, while the software can crash anytime.i had a KIA sportage before this. THAT was a genuinley reliable vehicle!. it never made one single sound. i drove that for like 50+ kms.

I am looking to get Haval non hybrid H6 FL model. Please confirm the fuel average and if its underpowered or its adequate.

[alitayyab]

I don't know if it has been posted before, but the user manual for FL Haval H6 (HEV/PHEV) is available (in English) online

Don't ya'll thing HEV is overpriced? I'm saying this after looking at top trim Kia Sportage pricing. There should be big gap between them.

[ArslanNawaz]

Why should there be a big gap? This h6 is a top seller in middle east too. Not just pakistan.

[kameetaha]

Top seller does not mean they would price on par with its competitors.
Not just its cheaper over there, they also got great financing and maintenance options hence they received popularity.

[tech_wiz]

It is a top seller abroad because it undercuts its competition by anywhere between 20%-30%. In Pakistan, its the opposite. KIA HEV FWD and Tucson HEV FWD are both cheaper than H6 HEV.

[pwuser167550015690]

It is a top seller abroad because it undercuts its competition by anywhere between 20%-30%.

H6 (Specially HEV) didn't have any competition in Pakistan when it launched. So it captured the market unopposed.

Kia, Hyundai and Toyota to an extent then entered the market already owned by H6 so they had to undercut that to gain any traction.

And KIA didn't launch cheaper than H6 btw. They had priced the Sportage above that in their arrogance and got a harsh reality check when that thing didn't sell well.

Nishat played their cards sensibly because they could see the Sportage disaster and undercut the market leader.
