Increase the
retail prices of Toyota Corolla
The Indus Motor Company (IMC) has announced to marginally increase the
retail prices of Toyota Corolla, Daihatsu Cuore and Toyota Hilux variants due to increasing
utility expenses and record depreciation in rupee, which has down by 5
percnet against Japanese Yen. During the period of PPP govt. the rupee is continuously losing its values against dollar. The corrupt PPP govt. has caused a great loss to the economy and nation. Their greed is limitless. Most corrupt person of Pakistan is president of Pakistan.
According to
the statement issued from IMC, prices have been increased by around 1.5
percent only on account of very steep decline in Pak Rupee against US$
and Japanese Yen which is making the imported CKD kits and local vendor
parts more costly as the raw materials of vendors are also imported.
Prices
on Corolla variants have increased by 20,000 rupees, Altis variants
prices have increased by Rs. 30,000 whereas the price of Cuore has been
increased by Rs15,000.
The new prices will
be:
Toyota Corolla XLI Rs. 1,444,000
Toyota Corolla GLI Rs. 1,574,000
Toyota Altis AT Rs. 1,879,000
Toyota Altis MT Rs. 1,789,000
Toyota Hilux 4x4 Std. Rs 2,489,000
Daihatsu Cuore CX Rs 824,000
Daihatsu Cuore CX CNG Rs 874,000
Company
spokesperson, explaining the reason of price increase, said, “We have been
absorbing most of the costs on account of depreciating rupee so far,
however, recent decline has forced us to marginally increase our
prices.”
“Additionally, increase in unit
price of electricity and gas and their load shedding is also forcing us
to move to more expensive diesel fuel for electricity generation, which
is also resulting in increased costs,” he added.
He
said that IMC is taking up all cost reduction initiatives through
localization and efficiency enhancement and is making its best efforts
to keep the prices in check despite the challenging environment.
