Trending
2025 has been a great year for car launches. This year’s launches were one of the biggest car launch years and the highest since 2022, thanks tothe economic stability of this year.
Since this year is ending, and as per our culture, where we do car wraps in which we add all the cars launched in the year, and so this year we’re back with 2025’s wrap with all the cars launched in 2025, including both local and imported, unveiled and facelifted:
45 new cars were introduced this year, of which 21 were CBU (imported), 14 were CKD (locally assembled), 5 were facelifts of existing models, and 5 were unveiled with no price yet; hence, a total of 45 cars.
Here’s the detailed list of all the cars, starting from January 1st to the present date. We’ll keep adding newly launched cars in this list until 31st December:
Launch Price: Rs. 9,750,000
Launch Date: Jan 8, 2025
The year started with a solid addition to the pickup market, which was untouched by other companies before. Still, JAC decided to take the risk and introduced the T9 Hunter with a 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine.
At the time, its biggest selling point was being the cheapest diesel truck you could buy. Although JAC later introduced the even cheaper FRISON 2X, the Hunter is the one that kicked off the momentum.
Launch Price: Rs. 15,890,000
Launch Date: Jan 12, 2025
If you have a need for speed, this was the highlight of the year. The Sonata N-Line claimed the crown as the fastest brand-new car assembled in Pakistan. While it certainly isn’t cheap, relative to the market, it offers incredible value if compared with German performance giants like the BMW M-series or the Mercedes-AMG line.
This sedan comes with a 2.5-liter turbocharged engine that produces 290 hp, taking it from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.3 seconds, and has a good engine growl in the exhaust, boosted by artificial sound inside the cabin through the speakers. The interior is also plush, with leather throughout the cabin and all the tech goodies you’d expect from a D-segment flagship.
Launch Price: Rs. 12,850,000
Launch Date: Feb 6, 2025
The long-awaited upgrade from the old 4th-generation Sportage finally arrived this year. This new generation of hybrids is a considerable step up in tech.
The price was definitely higher than before, but considering the massive improvements and the hybrid engine, it justifies the jump for many buyers looking for a crossover SUV with a HEV powertrain from the Korean company.
Launch Price: Rs. 43,200,000
Launch Date: Feb 6, 2025
Launched the same day as the Sportage L, this electric SUV is a complete head-turner thanks to its exterior, which looks like it came straight out of a sci-fi movie. Since it is a fully imported unit, the ex-factory price exceeds Rs. 4 crore, placing it in the ultra-premium category.
Launch Price: Rs. 7,500,000
Launch Date: Feb 6, 2025
The GuGo Box was the first all-electric B-segment hatchback in Pakistan. While cheaper options like the GuGo GiGi or Honri Ve were already available, those belong to the micro-category, cars that are much smaller in size with a lower range. The GuGo Box steps in to bridge that gap, and it could be a good choice for buyers who want a proper, standard-sized hatchback rather than a micro-vehicle.
Launch Price: Rs. 8,399,000
Launch Date: Feb 10, 2025
Initially introduced in 2020, the HS established a strong reputation through offering high-tech features like ADAS, a turbo engine, and an impressive interior in the compact SUV segment at an aggressive price point. It was arguably one of the few vehicles that demonstrated the potential of new Chinese entrants. Later, in December 2022, MG began local assembly of the HS. By February, the company unveiled a facelift with cosmetic updates and a new interior color option, dubbing it the “Trophy” variant. This is now the sole variant offered in the MG HS lineup.
Launch Price of Jetour Dashing: Rs. 8,295,000 and Jetour X70 Plus: Rs. 8,495,000
Launch Date: Feb 20, 2025
United Motors made a comeback in the passenger car space with the launch of the Jetour Dashing and Jetour X70 Plus. Both models are use a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine and come loaded with all the modern features you would expect from a competitive Chinese brand today.
These launches were noteworthy given the context. While United Motors’ earlier attempts with the Alpha and Bravo faced challenges regarding build quality, the Jetour models are distinct products from a separate company (Chery’s group in China) introduced by United in Pakistan, ensuring no such issues with build quality and reliability.
Launch Price: Rs. 12,975,000
Launch Date: Mar 24, 2025
Following the arrival of JAC’s diesel pickup earlier in the year, ISUZU entered the market with the 3rd generation D-Max. ISUZU’s older 2nd-generation D-Max couldn’t succeed in the market for various reasons, but this new generation tried resolved those issues and brought much-needed competition to a segment long dominated by a single player.
Launch Price: Rs. 6,800,000
Launch Date: Apr 11, 2025
In reality, this was essentially the same vehicle as the GuGo Box, as both originate from the same international model, the Nammi 01. Although there are minor changes between them, the backbone remains the same.
What made the launch interesting was the competition. Shortly after Chawla introduced the Dongfeng Box, pricing pressure intensified, prompting a noticeable adjustment from its competitor, GuGo, which dropped the price of its BOX just days after the Dongfeng’s launch.
Launch Price: Rs. 11,999,000
Launch Date: Apr 13, 2025
After years of anticipation, Hyundai finally introduced the 4th-generation Tucson with a hybrid powertrain.

The new model offered better efficiency, better technology, and a clear step up from the 3rd generation, which was a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter model.
Launch Price: Rs. 3,140,000
Launch Date: Apr 18, 2025
The Alto received a minor refresh. Suzuki added power windows with pinch protection, Hill Hold Control (HHC) in AGS trims, as well as airbags, ABS, EBD, a rear chrome grille across all trims, and some other changes as well. Read the blog that we’ve linked to the launch date for more details.
No price increase
Launch Date: Apr 30, 2025
GWM updated the H6 with a focus on exterior tweaks and a few interior refinements while keeping the price unchanged. This decision was significant in a market where facelifts often arrive with hefty premiums. By holding the line on pricing, the brand earned goodwill and reinforced the H6’s value proposition in the mid-size SUV category.
Launch Price: Rs.15,999,000
Launch Date: May 10, 2025
Kia raised the bar with the new 4th-generation Sorento, delivering a clear upgrade over the previous model. This one came with three options: 3.6-liter V6, 1.6-liter FWD HEV, and the top-spec 1.6-liter AWD HEV.
Launch Price: Rs. 4,999,000
Launch Date: May 16, 2025
Inverex surprised many by stepping into the EV space with the Xio, a tiny electric hatchback even smaller than the Alto. Known primarily as a solar and energy solutions company, Inverex’s move into electric mobility reflected how EVs are attracting players from outside the traditional auto industry.
Launch Price: Rs. 8,999,000
Launch Date: Jul 14, 2025

Launch Date: Jul 25, 2025
The BYD Shark 6 is the country’s first-ever plug-in hybrid pickup truck. It represents a shift in a segment traditionally dominated by rugged diesel engines, offering a more sophisticated, lifestyle-oriented alternative for buyers who can afford it, because the two crore price bracket is not for everyone, of course.
Launch Price: PKR 16,999,000
Launch Date: Jul 26, 2025 
The Riddara RD6 is Pakistan’s first-ever all-electric pickup truck, challenging the decades-long dominance of diesel and petrol engines in the segment. It is curated for a new breed of urban adventurers who need the utility of a flatbed truck in an all-electric option. But again, it targets a very specific audience because 1.7 crore for an EV truck is not something everyone can buy or want to buy.
Launch Price: PKR 12,895,000
Launch Date: July 28, 2025 
After the H6 HEV, Sazgar introduced the PHEV trim for the H6. It’s also a locally assembled option, with a good battery size of 19 kWh and a lot of hi-tech goodies you’d expect from a competitive Chinese brand.
Launch Price: PKR 8,999,000
Launch Date: Aug 1, 2025

Launch Price: Rs. 10,999,000
Launch Date: Aug 14, 2025
This marked Capital Smart Motors’ entry into the Pakistani market. The Forthing Friday holds the title of the first officially launched REEV (Range Extended Electric Vehicle) in Pakistan. Basically, if you don’t know what a REEV is, it is similar to a PHEV, but with one key difference: only the electric motors drive the wheels, while the engine works solely as a generator to charge the batteries.
Although the Nissan Note e-Power was available in the market before Friday, also featuring a REEV powertrain, but it arrived via private imports rather than through an official company launch like this one.
Launch Price: Rs. 9,999,999
Launch Date: Sep 2, 2025
Another offering from Capital Smart Motors, the JMEV Elight grabbed attention as the country’s cheapest all-electric sedan.

Launch Price: Rs. 6,149,000
Launch Date: Sep 5, 2025

Launch Date: Sep 29, 2025

Launched alongside it were the ZEEKR X and 7X, premium compact and mid-size SUVs that showcased the brand’s range and ambition. Notably, the 7X holds the title of the fastest brand-new Chinese car officially launched in Pakistan.
Launch Price: Rs. 8,775,000
Launch Date: Oct 9, 2025

While minor cosmetic tweaks differentiated it, the real story was its pricing and accessibility.
Launch Price: Rs. 6,850,000
Launch Date: Oct 10, 2025

Launch Date: Oct 31, 2025

Launch Date: Nov 11, 2025
The K50 Hunter is the first-ever REEV pickup truck in Pakistan. Unlike traditional diesel vehicles like the Hilux Revo or D-Max, the Hunter appeals to a new generation of buyers who demand the rugged capability of a body-on-frame truck paired with the smoothness and efficiency of a PHEV vehicle.

Launch Date: Nov 13, 2025
MG surprised everyone at the PAPS Auto Show by unveiling a 2.5-liter turbo diesel pickup truck. The twist?

If you want to know the difference between the two chassis, we’ve linked this guide for your convenience.
Launch Price: Rs. 5,999,000
Launch Date: Nov 14, 2025
Alongside the truck, MG also unveiled this compact electric hatchback. It competes directly with the GuGo Box and Dongfeng Box. One interesting fact we would like to tell you is that in China, the Binguo is made by Wuling, which is owned by SAIC Motor, the same parent company that owns MG. This explains why they are being showcased under the same umbrella.
Price not revealed
Launch Date: Nov 14, 2025
After a long time, Suzuki showcased a new addition to its portfolio with the unveiling of the Fronx at PAPS. Although currently just an unveiling, the company hasn’t launched it yet. But when it’s launched, it will be Suzuki’s first-ever locally assembled SUV in Pakistan. Not just that, featuring mild-hybrid technology, it will mark the brand’s first time entry into the hybrid segment, and it will be the most expensive option in Suzuki’s local lineup.
Launch Price: Rs. 9,999,000
Launch Date: Oct 21, 2025
Following the J6, the brand introduced the J7, a PHEV SUV designed to target hybrid competitors in the sub-10-million-rupee price bracket.

Launch Price: PKR 13,900,000
Launch Date: Nov 15, 2025 
007 (launched internationally as the eπ 007) is an all-electric D-segment flagship-level electric vehicle brought by Chawla Green Motors, which also brought Dongfeng BOX earlier this year. It competes with BYD Seal and, yes, not to forget about its scissor doors, which are the showstopper.
Launch Price: Rs. 1,295,000
Launch Date: Nov 27, 2025
It’s more of a quadricycle than a passenger car; it occupies a unique niche for urban commuters, students, and small families looking for a weather-protected alternative to motorcycles or aging used hatchbacks.
Price not revealed
Launch Date: Dec 20, 2025
Just yesterday, Changan unveiled its flagship brand, AVATR, in Pakistan, launching its first model, the ’11.’ This super-luxury, mid-size electric SUV is built on the CHN (Changan + Huawei + CATL) architecture and features Huawei’s proprietary DriveONE iTRACK 800V system for ultra-fast charging. In fact, with a supercharger, you can add 200 km of range in just 10 minutes.
Besides these goodies, the vehicle offers an impressive range of 680 km (NEDC) or 578 km (WLTP) and is packed with a jaw-dropping list of high-tech and luxury features, including Nappa leather interior, three screens, 25 Meridian speakers, and massive 22″ rims with Brembo brakes.
