Purchasing a car in Pakistan is a significant financial undertaking, a stark contrast to the affordability seen in India. While cars are within reach for many middle-class families in India, the same vehicles are sold at significantly inflated prices in Pakistan. A prime example is the Maruti Suzuki WagonR. In India, the starting price is approximately ₹4.98 lakh, whereas in Pakistan, the same car sells for around ₹32.14 lakh. Similarly, the popular hatchback Suzuki Alto starts at just ₹3.50 lakh in India, but costs over ₹23.31 lakh in Pakistan. This price difference is so substantial that one could purchase a mid-size SUV in India for the same amount. The exorbitant prices in Pakistan make car ownership a considerable economic burden for its citizens.
