Hatchbacks can comfortably fit 5 people on short commutes. And 95% of most families' commutes are within the city i.e short..

We've a swift and gli at home and honestly everyone uses the swift cos of how shitty the traffic is in lahore now. Move to a slightly crowded road and the bike walas will make your life hell in the gli.

Result: 2014 swift is near 160k km driven and gli from 2013 is sitting at 43k
if I am given the roads without the bike riders coming from every side, I'd probably be driving the gli more but it has become hell driving that thing in this city with no traffic control.

I drive my civic only to office and back... afterwards wherever i have to go i use wife’s passo and even on weekends i drive Passo everywhere ... much more easy to drive n park and way more comfortable

[danishmmh]

Same here, corolla is limited to office as it is at Port Qasim and you can flex it a bit on the roads to PQ, where as every where else it is Vitz

[IceCold]

What about your Vitara? That would than remain parked most of the time.

[speedster_101]

Same here, my 2015 Corolla Gli has done only 15,500 Kms till now.
Only use it for long routes.
In city I drive my Khyber without any worries.

So much hate for sedans, yet everyone who dislikes them owns one

[danishmmh]

I will be selling my Corolla once I receive alto. So alto and vitz/picanto if picanto makes sense.

Reason for selling is that father absolutely does not want to drive it as it is big, he prefers bike or even Careem over driving it.

[drtariqazeem]

Boss that is in use of my Dad... sab sa ziada wohi chalti...
74k odo since July 2017

[drtariqazeem]

Yes that’s a fair point.
I don’t dislike sedans just that Civic seats are hard and uncomfortable.
Driving wise its class apart.
Plus if u want to take to market or populated market place then hatch is the logical choice.

[Sahib]

i think its a Picanto thread. KIA multan confirms launching date 16 September Monday.

Wow! Is ka matlab uncle khoob enjoy ker raha hain.

[drtariqazeem]

Sir daily pindi sa Islamabad... once or twice a week yeh double chakkar bhi lagtay... plus Lahore/Peshawar/Gujranwala travel on motorway/GT road (work related)
He only knows that its auto and seats are high as compared to sedan so its easy to get in/out ( he has problem in left knee) he can take it anywhere he wants to if driver is not there...thats it... he is happy

[drtariqazeem]

What about dealership in ISLAMABAD...?????

[danishmmh]

any price idea

[speedster_101]

So much hate for sedans, yet everyone who dislikes them owns one

Its not hate. Its about requirement.
Sedan for long routes, when you have luggage.
Hatchbacks for local use.

[zuhaibafzal]

Yes booking will open from next week

[drtariqazeem]

Confirmed ?
What about Islamabad dealerhsip ?

[omar4494]

Exactly i have the same thoughts. Have 2015 , 1.6 altis only for motor way / high way travel clocked 35k only , And use my old 2001 cultus in city. nothing beats the comfort/ relaxed driving of a small mechanically fit hatchback in city driving.

[drtariqazeem]

I tend to disagree with the Comfort part in Cultus
