  • Suzuki Swift GLX now costs more than Rs4.7 million after latest hike

    Suzuki Swift GLX now costs more than Rs4.7 million after latest hike

    Pak Suzuki Motor Company has announced its third price hike in less than 30 days, resulting in an increase in the prices of some of its more affordable car models. This move follows the ongoing trend, with Pak Suzuki citing mounting inflation and local currency depreciation as the primary reasons for the price increase.

    With immediate effect, the revised car prices are as follows:

    Variants Old Price (Rs) New Price (Rs) Increase (Rs)
    Alto VX 2,034,000 2,144,000 110,000
    Alto VXR 2,359,000 2,487,000 128,000
    Alto VXR AGS 2,528,000 2,665,000 137,000
    Alto VXL AGS 2,615,000 2,795,000 144,000
    Wagon R VXR 2,877,000 3,062,000 185,000
    Wagon R VXL 3,052,000 3,248,000 196,000
    Wagon R AGS 3,348,000 3,563,000 215,000
    Cultus VXR 3,326,000 3,540,000 214,000
    Cultus VXL 3,654,000 3,889,000 235,000
    Cultus AGS 3,906,000 4,157,000 251,000
    Swift GL M/T 3,807,000 4,052,000 245,000
    Swift GL CVT 4,092,000 4,335,000 263,000
    Swift GLX CVT 4,462,000 4,725,000 263,000
    Bolan VX 1,754,000 1,852,000 92,000

    A production halt was announced by the manufacturer last week as a result of the continued economic downturn and inventory constraint. Further days without manufacturing indicate a greater sales drop. That might result in Pak Suzuki losing a considerable portion of its market share, especially in light of the recent price increase.

  • Pak Suzuki may discontinue Cultus to promote new Swift

    Pak Suzuki may discontinue Cultus to promote new Swift

    One of Pak Suzuki Motor Company’s (PSMC) best-selling vehicles, Suzuki Cultus, will reportedly no longer be produced. According to reports, all variants of the hatchback will be officially phased out in the upcoming months.

    According to Pakwheels, Alto and Swift sales had an impact on Cultus sales, and the company intended to actively promote Swift while boosting Alto sales.

    If the rumours are true, it may be terrible news for those who adore this tiny hatchback since Cultus has long held the top spot in the 1,000cc category.

    According to information from the Pakistan Automotive Manufacturers Association (PAMA), PSMC sold more than 9,800 Alto in March of this year. In April, the amount fell to 5,000. In May, sales slightly increased to about 5,400.

    It is also worth noting that PSMC has not made any public statements about the development. Once the business issues a formal statement regarding this, PSMC’s response will be added.

    The current generation of Suzuki Cultus was introduced in 2017. The hatchback is available in three variations from PSMC: VX, VXR, and VXL. Since its debut, Cultus has dominated the 1,000cc segment of the home market due to its compact size and impressive fuel economy.

    It is still too early to tell if these rumours are true, as several reports from last month that Pak Suzuki was preparing to reintroduce the Mehran turned out to be false after The Current obtained confirmation from numerous dealerships.
