if they needed to change the reputation and add something to their portfolio then they had good 10 years when their liana failed and we were left with 3 sedan options and none in the SUV/crossover category, they launched these vehicles just when kia/hyundai, renault released their plan for entry in Pakistan,so they knew that these manufacturers will be releasing SUVs and sedans but not before 2019, thats why in order to achieve a time advantage they introduced these two vehicles, that way when the real competition kicks on then they would be marketing that public has experienced our vehicles already, thats the only reason why they aren't assembling it locally so that if around 2019 they were forced to upgrade the models then they just need to flip the cards.
