One of the many automakers which have entered in Pakistan is Changan Automobiles– a Chinese state-owned car maker, in collaboration with Master Motors.
The company initially started selling CBUs in the country, however, on 2nd May 2019, it rolled out its first-ever locally assembled Changan vehicle, a mid-sized van Karvaan in Pakistan. It is expected that the company in the company days will also be producing two commercial pickups M8 and M9 at its local assembly line.
Aside from vans and pickups, the joint venture is also eyeing to launch its mid-size SUV, Changan CX70T in Pakistan to disrupt the local auto industry and to grab market share. The official launch date and price of the SUV have not been revealed by the company so far. But to gear up the speed, the company has started testing the vehicle which has been spotted; see the pictures below:

The vehicle comes with both auto and manual transmission; let’s see which options the company will offer.

Well it will take a year or so to convert it into RHD..
With rupee devaluating every week, dont expect any company to commit suicide, its not an easy task to calculate the feasibility of a launch at this point of uncertainty,
They’ve put the LHD sticker on the back glass, where it is interfering with the driver’s visibility in the rear-view mirror.
BTW turbo is not successful in Pakistan. Probability of getting fake engine oil or fake fuel very high.
As always, your reviews and comments are really helpful sunil. Thank you
