Due to the poor economic condition of Pakistan, the people there are facing difficulties. If someone wants to buy a new car there, he will have to think a hundred times. The cheapest car in India is Maruti Suzuki Alto. Its ex-showroom price starts from Rs 3.54 lakh. You will be surprised to know that the price of Alto in Pakistan is 22.51 lakh Pakistani rupees. This amount in Indian currency is approximately Rs 6.53 lakh. Meaning, compared to India, Alto is sold at almost double the price in the neighboring country.
Such a huge difference in car prices between India and Pakistan is really a cause of concern for Pakistanis. Even for the cheapest car, people there have to spend twice as much as in India. Now the question is, what are the reasons behind such expensive prices of cars in Pakistan ? Why do people there pay more money?
Why are cars expensive in Pakistan?
In recent times, it has been seen that car companies had to face a lot of challenges in the bad economic conditions. Some companies had also closed their plants for several days. At the same time, due to less money in hand, car sales in Pakistan also reduced. People have reduced buying new cars. Apart from this, things like tax and import duty also increase the price of cars.
All New Alto: Pakistani Alto
Rising costs force car companies to sell cars at higher prices. Now let us talk about Alto sold in Pakistan. 'Suzuki Pakistan' company sells Alto in the neighboring country. The name of this model of Alto is 'All New Alto'. Its four variants are sold in Pakistan.
India vs Pakistan: Whose Alto is more powerful?
Pakistani Alto comes with 658 cc engine. Maruti Suzuki Alto sold in India gets the power of 796 cc engine. You can see that even by paying double the price, you can get a less powerful Alto in Pakistan. At the same time, even at a lower price in India, you get the experience of a more powerful Alto than in Pakistan.
