The New 6th Gen Honda City Official Launch Date is Here

July 1, 2021 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

In July 2021, the 6th generation Honda City will make its debut in Pakistan. However, Honda Atlas has opted to open up the bookings for the car a month and a half in advance, without even completely showing the vehicle.

This City will succeed the 5th Generation predecessor, which has been marketed in Pakistan for more than a decade, and will compete directly with the Toyota Yaris and Changan Alsvin.

Performance

In Pakistan, it will be offered with two engine choices. A 1.2-liter naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder petrol engine produces 89 horsepower and 114 Nm of torque, while a 1.5-liter naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder petrol engine produces 118 horsepower and 145 Nm of torque. The engine will be paired to either a manual or a CVT transmission, depending on the model.

The new City, on the other hand, will face stiff competition from the Yaris and the Alsvin, both of which are newer, but similarly equipped vehicles. In addition, while the Yaris is pricey, the Alsvin is a less costly option to the City. In addition, the Proton Saga is a smaller, less expensive, and well-equipped alternative that, although not a direct rival of the new City, poses a real threat.

Lets Wait how the new City hold its Value against other Car that are available in the Country right now.

A test flight of a flying car between two airports is successfully completed by a Slovak Company.

June 30, 2021 / By Zunair Tahir /Automotive News

AirCar operates a 35-minute trip between the international airports of Nitra and Bratislava in Slovakia.
Prof Stefan Klein claims that the automobile, which runs on normal gasoline and has a BMW engine, can go over 1,000 kilometres.
In roughly two minutes and 15 seconds, a hybrid automobile can transform into an airplane.

According to BBC News, a firm in Slovakia has created a successful prototype of a hybrid flying automobile.

According to the British broadcaster, the automobile, known as AirCar, flew 35 minutes between international airports in the Slovakian cities of Nitra and Bratislava.

Prof Stefan Klein, the car’s designer, claims that it runs on normal gasoline, has a BMW engine, and can fly over 1,000 kilometer’s at an altitude of 8,200 feet. He also stated that the automobile had been in the air for about 40 hours.

In roughly two minutes and 15 seconds, the hybrid vehicle can transform into an airplane. On Monday morning, Prof Klein tested the automobile in front of reporters and took off from a runway. When the automobile was airborne, he stated it soared at about 170 km/h. The automobile can carry two passengers and has a combined weight restriction of 200kg, according to the inventor.

The innovation, however, will disappoint pop culture lovers because it does not take off like drone-taxi prototypes. A runway is required because the automobile can only take off and land vertically.

Porsche Is Investing Heavily On Electric Vehicle Batteries

Almost Took Two Years To Complete

AirCar took nearly two years to create and cost less than two million euros, according to Klein Vision, the firm behind it. According to Anton Rajac, a Klein Vision adviser and investor, the firm will be successful if it can attract a tiny amount of worldwide airline or taxi sales.

“In the United States alone, there are roughly 40,000 aircraft orders. And if we convert 5% of those to flying cars instead of planes, we have a big market “Rajac told the BBC about the potential.

Forza Horizon 4 will no longer get new vehicles or features prior to the release of Forza Horizon 5.

June 29, 2021 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The studio’s next game, Forza Horizon 5, will be published in November 2021, according to Xbox’s E3 2021 preview earlier this month.

Playground also highlighted the future game’s influence on Forza Horizon 4 content production on Monday’s edition of video show Forza Monthly. Following the release of the Series 37 update for Forza Horizon 4 on June 29, subsequent updates will not feature new content.

Playground senior producer Tom Butcher remarked, “With Forza Horizon 5’s release being our priority over the next several months, we’ve made some modifications to Forza Horizon 4’s monthly series updates.”

“As a result, beginning with Series update 38, players who are familiar with the game will notice the restoration of material from Series 7 to 32. Consider it a mix tape that includes the return of some of your favorite material as well as newly introduced new features.”

“Although we aren’t expecting to introduce any brand-new vehicles or features in the coming months, you should have a lot of fun reliving these situations and seeing how you manage them the second time around,” he continued. Photo challenges, prizes, the Forzathon Shop, and backstage voting will all be available as usual, thanks to all of our latest Series updates.”

When asked if the game will continue to receive updates after the release of Forza Horizon 5, Butcher stated, “We do intend to make sure Forza Horizon 4 continues to be a great experience, but we aren’t ready to disclose precise plans quite yet.”

The Good News is that after 850cc, 1000cc cars are becoming more affordable as well.

June 27, 2021 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The federal government made vehicles with engines up to 850cc cheaper earlier this month by eliminating the Federal Excise Duty (FED) and lowering the Sales Tax to 12.5 percent from 17 percent. Everyone was ecstatic when they heard the news. Despite this, many people preferred to hear the phrase 1000cc instead than 850cc.

So, what’s this? The government has complied with our request. Shaukat Tarin, the Finance Minister, has announced the continuation of tax exemption for automobiles up to 1000cc, making all domestically built 1000cc cars cheaper.

What Will be the impact these Cars are Getting Cheaper

Because the middle class can only afford automobiles up to 1000cc, this tax relief will undoubtedly have a big influence on the local automotive market. The government has lowered automobile costs in a budget for the first time in Pakistan’s history.

Consumer purchasing power will rise as a result of the effort, as will automobile sales in the country. The government, on the other hand, has not proposed any tax relief for imported automobiles, indicating that it is focused on the domestic auto sector and encouraging people to buy local vehicles.

What are your thoughts on this news? On a scale of one to ten, how pleased are you with this big tax cut? Let us know what you think in the comments area.

When Will Automobiles Become More Affordable to Consumers?

Okay, so the government has enacted the Fiscal Budget 2021-22, which includes lower taxes on automobiles with engines under 1000cc. But the real question is when prices will start to fall. And the response is July 1st, 2021.

The budget has been considered and approved by the government in the National Assembly. It will be deployed in the beginning of next month. From July 1st onwards, the revised pricing will be in effect.

In the meanwhile, customers who get automobiles this month will be charged the existing price. If the invoice for the car has been issued, the buyer must pay the current price. There’s no getting around it.
