Karakoram motors in Pakistan are the pioneer automobile assembler and importer of Chinese automobiles in Pakistan & have already signed a sole distribution and technical collaboration agreement with Chery Automobiles. They are also the first company of the world to assemble 800cc Chinese single cabin Right Hand Drive (RHD) pickup outside China. However since more than a decade an auto consumer in Pakistan gets to see the same old vehicles being sold by Karakoram. While Chinese vehicles have progressed leaps and bounds over these years, we still see cars that creates an utterly bad impression of Chinese cars in peoples’ minds.

Karakoram really need to bring better vehicles here with competitive prices & proper after sales support. Pakistani market is poised for affordable feature packed sedans and a car like Arrizo5 with all its charm under PKR 15 lac is sure to become a wonder.
