The decline reported by the manufacturers was largely in line with the historical year-end phenomenon, where consumers generally delay their purchases until the new year.
On the other hand, prices of cars have increased many fold in the absence of any regulatory body from the government’s end and the consumers are left with no choice but to buy expensive cars. Almost all major automakers in the country including Pak Suzuki, Toyota Indus, and Honda Atlas have increased prices of their cars.
