Despite high car prices and ongoing economic challenges, Pakistan’s auto industry showed strong signs of recovery in May 2025.
A key highlight was the sale of over 1,000 units of Toyota’s popular Fortuner and Hilux models. These premium SUVs and pickup trucks remain in high demand, showing that many buyers are still willing to invest in reliable and durable vehicles.
Toyota Pakistan led the market in May, with a total of 5,519 vehicles sold. This impressive performance made Toyota the top-selling brand for the month and played a major role in boosting overall industry figures.
In total, 10,949 cars were sold across the country in May 2025. This marks a 40% increase compared to the previous month, highlighting a positive shift in the market. Experts say this rise reflects growing confidence among consumers and a slow but steady recovery in the auto sector.
Even though the economic environment remains tough—with inflation and import restrictions affecting prices and supply—buyers are still showing interest, especially in trusted brands like Toyota. The demand for SUVs and pickup trucks is particularly strong, as many customers prefer vehicles that can handle long-term use and rough road conditions.
This upward trend is encouraging for manufacturers and dealers, as it signals that the worst may be over for the local auto industry. If the current momentum continues, more growth is expected in the coming months. The industry now looks forward to further improvement in sales and production levels.
