Pakistan’s auto industry showed strong growth in October 2025, with total vehicle sales climbing 32% year-on-year to 17,333 units. Passenger cars, motorbikes, tractors, and commercial vehicles all contributed to this robust performance. The rise was driven by strong performances across passenger cars, motorbikes, tractors, and commercial vehicles, as new model launches and improved financing options attracted more buyers.
Market analysts noted that this rebound highlights growing consumer confidence and stabilization in auto financing, despite broader economic challenges such as high inflation and currency pressure.
Major carmakers reported significant gains, led by Suzuki Alto, which sold 4,931 units, and Toyota models Corolla, Yaris, and Cross, which jumped 78% year-on-year. Hyundai Nishat and Honda Atlas Cars (HCAR) also showed strong momentum in mid to premium segments.
The increase reflects rising consumer demand, improved financing options, and new model launches. Market analysts see this as a positive sign of recovery in Pakistan’s automotive sector despite economic challenges.
