Toyota Camry is a well renowned brand all over the world due to its reasonable price and reliability stats. Then again in Pakistan; we are a little different then the rest:). Here its among the best cars available from the Company. We get only 2.4 version with almost basic trim while in Australia and other countries it also comes in 3.0. This car has a descent history in Pakistan.

Overall:
This car overall has nice lines, comfortable interior, descent looks and its among the more reliable cars. It wont feel under powered if not powerful and does have good road grip and a feel for the driver. While one negative aspect is that it does not have that low center of visual gravity like other cars.

Performance:
It comes in 2.4L and wont feel under power in any regard. The maintenance is least although a little bit expensive. The car is responsive and feels great as a daily driver. The ride is comfortable and pleasant while at times braking on wet surfaces might get it a little off balance. The car has Electronic Power Steering (EPS), Anti-Lock Braking (ABS), Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD). While this particular trim does not have any Vehicle Assistance or Stability Controls.

Interior:
Interior is in beige and comfortable with 8-way supportive seat, electronic driver and passenger seat. Comes with sunroof, 6 in-dash cd/mp3 player with steering buttons. It has automatic climate control and the A/C is a class of its own and comes with ion filter, which wont stress engine even if driving uphill and does not either effect fuel economy. It has auto-headlamps and rain sensing wipers which are convenient features. The interior is nicely laid out with everything in total reach of the driver. Car comes with pinch-free Auto Glass side mirror and retractable and auto side mirror. The car has a built in security system with immobilizer and security alarm.

Mileage:
Local with A/C 9-9.5 km/L
Local without A/C 10 km/L
Highways with A/C 12-12.5 km/L
Highways without A/C 13km/L
The mileage is descent provided driving the car with slightly heavy foot.

Pros:
Descent engine with good mileage and power band
Comfy and spacious interior
A daily driver
Good sterio system

Cons:
Expensive parts
Wet braking is at times an issue

Price:
The price of Camry in Pakistan started at around 23 Lacs which was just perfect but now it is almost touching 96 Lacs for the new model which has new shape and some new feature but that just does not compensate for 70lacs + of price hike.
I might settle for Mercedes Benz C or E class, may be Toyota Mark X 3.0g and there are a lot of other options.

Suzuki Alto (now discontinued) is a well reputed car in Pakistan even with its outdated engine and looks.

This car comes with the same engine that was used in Potohars back in 1980's with minor tweaks for CNG and fuel consumption. Over the passage of time Suzuki has hardly made any interior/exterior change. Car prices are constantly rising and its price started around 5 Lacs is not at 8,21,000 Rs which is not worth the product and you may opt for Imported Car in this range and even lower.

The handling is a nightmare on its Stock tyres, and the car is also extremely stiff and bumpy. So changing to softer and wider tyres is recommended, which will make a lot of difference in its comfort and grip. The car will handle fine till 80kms; above that and you will feel like losing it. It comes with hydraulic steering system which is acceptable for the reason that EPS at high speeds due to high steering sensitivity will become a risk.

Interior wise this car has sub standard build quality and squeaks from a new car are nothing new. Recently they changed the traditional cassette player to JVC CD/mp3 Player. The seats are a little uncomfortable specially while turning when the body roll takes over and you literally start moving to the sides. The A/C works just fine if not good.

Exterior wise the looks still come from the 90's and nothing has been upgraded; it even does not have rear screen defrost

The positive point is its spare parts. They are as cheap as anything and you can get them from almost everywhere at some serious cheap price. So driving in traffic takes the edge off you.
Economy on CNG is around 4Rs/Litre while on Petrol with A/C; local it would hardly give you 12km, on Long route it increases to 14km/l which is still not acceptable for 1000cc Carby engine.

This cars engine has been discontinued worldwide and recently this model was taken off the chart from Suzuki Pakistan.

I have recently bought the 2012 altis 1.6 A/T.
I find this car good in eficiency giving about 12km/liter.
The cruise control feature is very handy on the motorway,by the way no local made cars have this feature.
Ground clearance is much better than Gli,Xli,Civic,and City.
Performance wise not my favorite car,wish the older 1.8ltr version was still availible.I also notice the Rpm reaching to 3 when cruising speed is about 120km.
The engine is more quiter than xli/gli.
Should have steering wheel audio or temprature controls.
One thing that disturbs me is that in the sunroof version there is a lot less headroom compared to xli/gli/civic.
The driver and passanger seats are comfortable but the rear seat should have a bit more leg room.
The plastic mirors and plastic door handles are removed like in the gli/xli.
The door from the interior gives a quite classy look with leather.
The dashbord is full of plastics,and does not give the premium feel when adjusting the A/C.
Toyota should have had dual airbags,as the Altis is only having one for the driver.
Having some minor hold backs,but overall best car in the market.

Mehran is one cheap car available in Pakistan with no competition in its range of price and it self..

It gives great mileage on petrol and cng both if you use and drive ecoLY means soft or positively...

Its hard or un comfortable if you drive corolla or city beside this but in the range of 607,000 this is the best 0meter car you can purchase and forget to go to any workshop for any repairs (excluding oil, airfilter, oilfitler, tuning reasons etc...)

Its has Excellent Market value means if u gonna sale it even after a year or two still it is gone give a great cash money...

No spare part issue, you can get its part all over PAK.
