Islamabad, 1 May, 2025: Kia hikes Picanto price once again in Pakistan, increasing the cost of its automatic variant as part of a broader adjustment due to rising input expenses.
The revised pricing will be implemented from May 1, 2025, affecting new buyers across the country.
In a formal notice issued to dealerships and prospective customers, Kia Lucky Motors revealed that the Picanto Automatic (AT) variant would now carry an updated ex-factory price tag of Rs. 3,940,000, reflecting an increase of Rs. 90,000 from the previous rate of Rs. 3,850,000.

Price Revision Details
- Model: Picanto (Automatic)
- Previous Price: Rs. 3,850,000
- Revised Price: Rs. 3,940,000
- Effective Date: May 1, 2025
- Increment: Rs. 90,000
According to Kia, the earlier pricing will remain valid only for customers who complete full payment and have their vehicle booking processed by April 30, 2025.
Any orders submitted on or after the beginning of May will be subject to the new rate structure.
Kia emphasized that the listed ex-factory prices are exclusive of transportation and insurance charges, and any fiscal changes introduced by the government such as taxes or levies at the time of delivery will be the purchaser’s obligation.
This price adjustment comes at a time when automotive manufacturers operating in Pakistan are grappling with rising costs of imported components, currency fluctuations, and elevated logistics charges.
Industry analysts believe such increases are likely to continue unless economic conditions stabilize.
While the price bump may impact consumer sentiment, the Picanto remains one of the more affordable hatchback options in Pakistan’s compact car segment, known for its fuel efficiency and city-friendly dimensions.
Dealers are anticipating a rush of buyers looking to finalize bookings before the end-of-April deadline to avoid the revised pricing.

Kia hikes Picanto price at a time when the automobile sector is undergoing constant transformation, responding to both global supply chain pressures and domestic financial policy shifts.
As with previous revisions, the company stated that pricing is subject to future changes based on market conditions.
