He stated that the government has continued to reject their demands, and that they would not engage in negotiations with authorities unless their profit margins on petroleum product sales are enhanced by 6%.

Butt said that the administration had already assured the gasoline dealers that their demands would be satisfied, hence the strike had been called off.

GOVT Refuses to Allow Vintage Car Import

November 11, 2021 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News


The government has declined to offer a one-time exception for antique automobile imports. The trade ministry had presented a case to the cabinet in this respect at a meeting held last week.

The participants were notified by the Commerce Division that the Import Policy Order (IPO) 2020, Appendix-C, Clause 10 indicated that the import of second hand/used automobiles was prohibited, save for those explicitly exempted under Chapter 87.
Pakistanis are prohibited from importing secondhand automobiles, even vintage vehicles.

The SRO, however, could not be implemented due to the Import Policy Order’s prohibition on the import of historic automobiles.

According to Pakwheels.com, the MG 5 sedan will make its debut in Pakistan a year from now, bringing another promising addition to Pakistan’s C-Segment compact sedan market.

Gallery

As none of the cars teased by the Javed Afridi has make their way into the Pakistan market Only HS and ZS crossovers are available so far and due to covid-19 situation their has been delay in the delivery of the vehicles so far as the MG5 will be re introduced in Pakistan as MG GT (‘GT’ stands for Gran Turismo or Grand Touring,).

INTERIOR

As Pak wheels share the new look of the MG5 OR MT GT it will be direct compete with other big Manufacture car that’s are available in Pakistan right now like Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, and Hyundai Elantra.

Let’s take a closer look at each of these aspects and assess the vehicle’s market potential in Pakistan.

Engine Options

MG5 OR MG GT Will be available in Pakistan in two Different Engine Variants

  • 1.5 litre normally aspirated 4 cylinder petrol engine with 119 horsepower (hp) and 135 newton-meters (nm) of torque
  • 1.5 litre turbocharged 4 cylinder petrol engine with 173 hp and 230 nm of torque, will be available for the MG GT or MG5.

Features

As MG GT OR MG5 is a Modern Vehicle it will be equipped with Different Features as Follow

  • 6-way adjustable driver seat
  • 4-way adjustable front passenger seat
  • Foldable rear seats
  • Adjustable steering column
  • Multi-function control switches on the steering wheel
  • Keyless entry
  • Push start
  • Power windows
  • Premium six-speaker stereo
  • 10.1-inch touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple Carplay
  • Cruise control
  • Electronic climate control

Expected Price

Nonetheless, it is expected that the car would cost between Rs. 3.7 million and Rs. 4.3 million. However, given Javed Afridi’s fixation on MG automobiles being competitively priced, it’s probable that the vehicle will be priced slightly lower than the competitors. Let’s hope the latter situation holds true for the Pakistani market.

Given that the MG GT will be released as a direct rival to the Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, and Hyundai Elantra, it will most likely be priced similarly. However, it is unclear if the GT will be released in Pakistan next year as a locally built car or as a Completely Built-up Unit (CBU), which will have a considerable influence on its pricing. Some testing Units of MG GT Has arrived in Pakistan to be tested on Pakistani Roads
