Islamabad, 26 Apr, 2025: Pakistan Suzuki Motor Company (PSMC) has officially hiked Swift prices, increasing the cost of its GL MT variant by Rs. 80,000.
Effective from April 26, 2025, the new retail price stands at Rs. 4,416,000, compared to the earlier rate of Rs. 4,336,000.
The Swift GL MT, a popular hatchback in Suzuki’s lineup, has long been a favourite among buyers seeking a compact, efficient vehicle.
However, this recent price revision could affect its appeal, particularly as Pakistan’s automotive sector continues to struggle with declining demand and rising inflationary pressures.

Background of the Price Increase
The decision to hike Swift prices follows a series of adjustments made by PSMC over the past few months. In February 2025, the automaker had also raised the prices of its entry-level model, the Suzuki Alto, by as much as Rs. 120,000.
At the time, company officials attributed the increase to the inclusion of several new features designed to improve both safety and driving comfort.
In addition to the price revision, Suzuki had subsequently introduced an updated version of the Alto, unveiling enhancements across all its variants.
These improvements confirmed earlier industry speculation that significant upgrades were on the way for one of Pakistan’s best-selling hatchbacks.
Impact on Consumers and Market
Industry analysts suggest that the repeated price increases could potentially weaken the purchasing power of already cautious consumers.
With high inflation and economic uncertainty affecting household budgets, potential buyers may now think twice before committing to new car purchases.
Despite the higher price tag, PSMC remains hopeful that brand loyalty and feature upgrades will help maintain Swift’s popularity.
Market experts, however, caution that rising vehicle costs might drive buyers toward more affordable alternatives or second-hand options.

Future Outlook
As economic challenges persist, further adjustments in vehicle pricing cannot be ruled out. Manufacturers across the board are grappling with rising production costs, currency fluctuations, and increased taxation, all of which continue to influence the final retail prices passed onto customers.
In this environment, companies like Suzuki will need to balance product upgrades with affordability to sustain their customer base in Pakistan’s tightening automotive market.
