The rising prices set by Pakistani bike manufacturers are posing challenges for consumers, making it increasingly difficult for them to make purchases.
According to the data from the Pakistan Automotive Manufacturers’ Association (PAMA), bike sales stood at 73,588 units, down 11 per cent in July 2023 compared to the previous month. Atlas Honda sold 62,012 bikes, down 17 prt cent month over month (MoM).

Pak Suzuki sold just 957 motorcycles in July, up 164 per cent compared to June 2023. Yamaha sold 675 motorcycles in July, down 28 per cent compared to the previous month. Sales of Chinese motorcycles fell by up to 80 per cent compared to June.
PAMA didn’t mention why the sales declined. Analysis by research firms posits that import restrictions and associated production halts are likely affecting bike manufacturers.
Some industry watchdogs believe that the exaggerated bike and fuel prices are also to blame.
