Major Decrease in Prices of Imported SUVs & 4×4 Vehicles in Pakistan

 

The Pakistani automotive market is experiencing a significant shift as the federal government rolls out new fiscal measures under the Finance Act 2025. With the support of newly issued Statutory Regulatory Orders (SROs), a sharp reduction in duties on imported vehicles—especially SUVs and 4×4 vehicles—has led to substantial price cuts across popular models.

These changes mark a pivotal moment for both car enthusiasts and importers, as the luxury and high-performance SUV market becomes more accessible than ever before.

What’s Behind the Price Drop?

The price decline is primarily driven by the government’s decision to revise the total incidence of duties on imported vehicles, including:

• Customs Duty (CD)

• Regulatory Duty (RD)

• Additional Customs Duty (ACD) — now reduced from 7% to 6%

This reform is part of a broader strategy to promote transparency in vehicle imports, reduce misuse of tax amnesty schemes, and encourage legitimate business practices within the auto industry.
