Pakistan is a developing country with a low average income for the majority of its population which prioritizes affordability over luxury at any given time. For cars, this comes down to their durability, usage, and the minimum budget required to purchase such a vehicle that can be used for the needs of the whole family. With the rate of taxes on the car industry still very high, the market is captured mainly by low profile cars for the daily usage of small families. Given the budget constraint there is an option of buying either a new car from one of the automobile manufacturers in Pakistan or as is the trend nowadays you can opt for a slightly used imported Japanese car.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why choose a Budget Car?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Here, where majority of the population belongs to the middle class, people look for budget cars that fulfill their daily needs without denting their savings too much. The average working class individual in Pakistan is likely to spend a maximum of 12 lac rupees and will hope to find a vehicle that can fulfill all the daily usage requirements. These budget cars are known for their passenger capacity, mileage and performance along with easy maintenance. They are more efficient in terms of fuel consumption hence more environmental friendly. Most also offer the added bonus of a fair resale value after a couple of years of usage.<\/span><\/p>\n
