Pakistan’s Auto Market Maintains Strong Growth in the First Half of the Year

2026-07-29

Pakistan’s automotive market continued its positive momentum in June, highlighting resilient consumer demand and growing confidence in the country’s manufacturing sector.

According to the Pakistan Automotive Manufacturers Association (PAMA), the sales of new vehicles reached 22,741 units in June, representing a 4.4% year-on-year increase. During the first six months of the year, cumulative sales climbed to 118,123 units, marking an impressive 35.2% growth compared with the same period last year.

It is important to note that PAMA’s statistics cover only locally assembled vehicles produced by its member manufacturers. Sales from non-member brands such as Kia, Changan, and MG are not included, meaning the overall market size is likely even larger.

Brand Performance

Suzuki remained the market leader despite a 12.7% decline in June sales, retaining a commanding 50.8% market share. Toyota ranked second with a 15.4% market share, although its sales slipped 4.9% year on year.

Several brands recorded remarkable growth. Honda posted a 64.4% increase in monthly sales, securing third place, while Haval achieved a 62.8% surge, ranking fourth. Hyundai placed fifth despite a 7.3% decline in sales. Tank, JAC, and Jetour followed in sixth, seventh, and eighth positions respectively, reflecting the increasing diversity of Pakistan’s automotive market.

A Market with Expanding Opportunities

The strong first-half performance demonstrates the resilience of Pakistan’s automotive industry and signals growing opportunities for manufacturers, suppliers, and investors. Rising demand, expanding model offerings, and increasing competition among both domestic and international brands are contributing to a more dynamic automotive ecosystem.

As vehicle ownership continues to rise and the automotive supply chain develops, Pakistan is expected to remain one of the region’s most promising markets for automotive manufacturing, components, and aftermarket businesses.
