Overview of the automotive market in Pakistan
Pakistan's automotive market presents a unique phenomenon: consumers are still enthusiastic about buying cars despite the high prices and delivery delays they face. The reason behind this is closely related to Pakistan's *** system.
Currently, Pakistan's automotive production relies heavily on CKD (Full Bulk Parts) or SKD (Semi-Bulk Parts) components imported from Japan for assembly. These production activities are mainly dominated by sole proprietorships and joint ventures, with foreign investors owning the production and technology of the factories. Since Pakistan's industrial base is relatively weak and has not yet formed an autonomous system in the true sense of the word, when production and technology are in the hands of foreign businessmen, consumers and the local market have to be controlled by others.
This kind of community of interests between foreign businessmen and local manufacturers maintains high products** through high tariff protection policies, and forms an industry monopoly, so as to earn high profits. Although Pakistan has gradually reduced the protection of *** since 1995, due to the influence of the community of interests, ** has not been able to fully implement the tax rate stipulated by the WTO.
This situation has led to an intensification of the contradiction between supply and demand in the Pakistani automotive market. On the one hand, consumers cannot afford the high price of imported cars; On the other hand, due to the lack of automobile production in the country, the supply has exceeded demand for many years, making it extremely difficult to buy a car. Therefore, it is not surprising that there are queues for car purchases in Pakistan.
For exhibitors, despite the many challenges, Pakistan's automotive market still has great potential. With the development of the economy and the growth of consumer demand, it is expected that the automotive market in Pakistan will usher in more opportunities in the future.
