Pakistan is facing many difficulties with its economy, the lowering foreign currency reserves and deterioration in the value of local currency. On top of it, there are ever growing debts. Some of these factors and their consequences are affecting the local auto industry as well.
The auto manufacturers of Pakistan first face the challenge in opening Letter of Credits (LCs) with banks, in order to import the completely knock down (CKD) vehicle kits, which are used to manufacture the vehicles. As mostly the automakers of Pakistan relying on importing the CKD kits for manufacturing the vehicles instead of localisation of Parts manufacturing. So after not being able to import any supplies, the auto manufacturers of Pakistan left without supplies, being unable to operate all the time, hence this results in off days of operation, increasing the costs of automakers.
Here a second thing, hits the auto manufacturers, which is ever devaluting local currency. As the payments of all imports need to be made in foreign currencies and mostly US Dollars, so any fluctuation in local currency impacts the local automakers. So ever deteriorating value of local currency is big challenge for local auto makers, ever increasing the costs of manufacturing the vehicles.
Hence, after these factors described above, the automakers are left with no other option, than to increase the car prices. Toyota Pakistan have increased the prices of their vehicles three times until now in the year 2023. This third increase came in around the mid of Feb 2023, the details of these increased and old prices are as follows.
