Islamabad, July 2, 2025: Lucky Motor Corporation (LMC) has announced a sharp increase in Kia car prices in Pakistan, effective from July. The company cites the new NEV Levy imposed in the federal budget, a weakening Pakistani rupee, and rising global freight charges as key factors driving the hike.
Despite internal cost-cutting efforts, LMC stated the price revision was “unavoidable” due to external pressures. The price increase spans across popular models like Picanto, Stonic, Sportage, Sorento, and Carnival.
