So paperwork writes "company operated outlet", in case they're not involving 3rd party dealers this shows a long term strategy where they probably won't need to care about dealer margins, we can only see if there's an effect on pricing once a local model is launched.

I dont think any company can operate without a dealer network. because company operated stores like these Hyundai are more of outlets in malls but car buyer need location for service and warranty issues. I think there will be dealers but Hyundai has been very slow in their setup, so for now maybe company operated stores. I am sure there will be dealers when local production starts. Hyundai also know they are not selling anything, I am not sure if anyone bought Santa Fe, so dealers network with nothing in production will be just an overhead not only for Hyundai but also the third party dealers. I mean why to open dealership when there are no cars for sale. Yes there are for sale but who is buying 20 Million Santa Fe.

Tesla has company operated outlets, service centers and they dont have dealers, but that is Tesla .

Yh let's see

Actually only the emporium one is in a mall
Both the jail road & new Karachi one are proper showrooms.

Btw jail road one is actually providing service to Hyundai santro's & shehzores.

Ionic Hybrid price is kept at an insane value of Rs. 64 lacs. It is easily more than 20 lacs higher than what it should have been!
I wonder what was Nishat thinking, especially when next door Kia Sportage is available in 46 lacs (FWD version).

after Santa Fe this price was expected. It's sad!

“Hyundai Nishat Motors Private Ltd (HNMPL) will start local assembly of Porter H100 pickup with 20 per cent indigenisation from January next year, the company announced on Tuesday”

No mention of any other car.

Awam : We want cheap cars (hatchback) in below 1.5 million and sedan below 3.0 million category.

Hyundai : Hold my cup....
Presenting the stupid/ugly ionic hybrid for 6.4m ghareeb awam ko Khushi ka moqa be nhi dia.
Sad times for the country.

Bhai they are not here to sale cars instead they will operate thier showroom as a Museum so no need for third party dealers.....
Don't know what their target audience is who is gonna pay insane prices..

Really absurd pricing for a ripoff"2nd Gen Prius" i.e Korean crap...are there enough mentally deranged ppl up for buying this one? .....and somewhere I saw a comparison btw it's price and the brand new Prius 4th gen from Toyota Indus. Can someone tell me how many units Indus managed to sold at their non-compatative prices...Peace...

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2019-10-09 20:27:31 +0500 #598

no one buys that Prius from Indus and I think no one will buy this Ioniq at 6.4 Million and its not on the road price . Hyundai is just showing their portfolio which no one cares in our market. The Ioniq case is same as Santa FE. Just SHOW-SHAW

harrissaeed89 (Harris) 2019-10-09 20:36:37 +0500 #599

So that mean this SHITBOX will cost more like 7Mils....what the he'll is going on.....I think Mian Mansha only brought this brand to do some money laundering with just the name tag atfront:D

@fazalwahab11375 seems like your earlier predictions about Hyundai-Nishat intentionally slowing down construction of plant and local assembly were true after all.

So if I have the money why would I go for this and not sportage or even the kia grand carnival with a V6? Just because it's hybrid? I think I'll pass as would anyone.
Hyundai needs to fire marketing people and hire competent people.

The interior with stuck-on LCD is disgusting as the exterior....no elegance in design language AT ALL.....just a frickin' microwave oven...
