    Here’s why KIA Pakistan is teasing ‘Yasir and Alvin’ 

    KIA Motors Pakistan recently stirred curiosity on social media by mentioning “Yasir and Alvin” in a post, leaving some oblivious while surprising others.  

    Clarifying the mystery, KIA Lucky Motor Corporation is hinting at the introduction of a sedan resembling the Toyota Yaris and Changan Alsvin.  

    This serves as a clear indication of the automaker’s intent to enter this segment. The upcoming car is expected to match the size of the Toyota Yaris and Changan Alsvin, eliminating the possibility of it being an entirely different model.  

    This move suggests that, for the time being, the Corolla and Civic segments remain unthreatened by a new entrant.  

    While the brand has not disclosed the car’s details or its name, it is apparent that a new vehicle is on the verge of being launched. 

    Considering the current economic challenges in Pakistan, with soaring car prices, launching a new vehicle seems like a risky decision.  

    The nation is already grappling with high petrol costs and escalating inflation, making the timing of this introduction noteworthy. 

  • Changan is not reducing the price of Alsvin variants

    Changan is not reducing the price of Alsvin variants

    With the exception of Alsvin, Changan has announced price reductions for all locally assembled vehicles.

    While Changan and every other brand in Pakistan increased the price of automobiles to an all-time high, it appears that the Chinese manufacturer has noted that Alsvin variants were far less expensive and still seemed like a good option for local car buyers as compared to other sedans from top brands.

    Here are the new prices for Changan vehicles:

    Model Old invoice New price Reduction
    Oshan X7 Comfort Rs7,449,000 Rs7,049,000 Rs400,000
    Oshan X7 FutureSense Rs7,749,000 Rs7,549,000 Rs200,000
    Karvaan Standard Rs2,469,000 Rs2,419,000 Rs50,000
    Karvaan Plus Rs2,619,000 Rs2,569,000 Rs50,000
    Alsvin Comfort Rs3,394,000    
    Alsvin DCT  Rs3,649,000    
    Alsvin Lumiere DCT  Rs3,844,000
