As is the tradition on BSCB, I can share with you sales of locally-produced models in Pakistan for the month. A pretty accurate picture of the new vehicle market in the country given import taxes are too high to allow imports in any significant numbers. The market for locally-produced cars is up a very dynamic 27% year-on-year in October to 12,653 deliveries, bringing the year-to-date total to 120,186 units, now down just 380 sales on 2013. The Toyota Corolla continues to fully enjoy the benefits of its new generation, up a gigantic 81% on October 2013 to 4,099 sales and a huge 32.1% market share. The Corolla is now down just 2% year-to-date. The Suzuki Mehra (+18%), Cultus (stable) and Bolan (+12%) follow.
