- Pakistan is a country that assembles passenger cars (CKD) but does not produce them. In 2013, the country assembled 121 000 vehicles after a peak in 2007 (176 000 units). This decline in production is mainly due to the recession that hit the country after 2007 and the severe floodings of 2010. Pakistani auto plants are underutilized because the country's plants have a capacity of approximately 270 000 units (i.e. only 45% usage rate).
- In a country where the motorization rate is low (8 vehicles/1000 inhabitants in 2007), production is intended only for the local market. Importing very few vehicles (mostly sedans from segments D and E for businesses and administrations), we can hence consider that the annual market is equivalent to the annual production. Which ranks Pakistan in the 45th place world wide in terms of PC registrations. (behind Kuwait and before Morocco ) and 33th largest global producer ahead of Portugal and behind Uzbekistan.
- In 2013, the production of Pakistani PC was composed of 100% Japanese vehicles: Suzuki (55% of annual production), Toyota (in JV with Indus - 25%) and Honda (20%). Since the beginning of 2014, Hyundai has entered the market.
- In the first quarter of 2014, 8 models were produced:
- 4 Suzuki: The Mehran (former Alto - segment A), Cultus (former Swift - segment B), the Bolan (Minivan) and the current Swift .
- 2 Honda: The City (segment B) and Civic (segment C)
- 1 Toyota: the Corolla (segment C) is the most produced and sold model in the country.
