These topics were discussed by Suneel Munj in the last weekly including fuel prices, new Suzuki Every, metro project in Faisalabad and fake engine oil fraud in Pakistan.

1.    Change in Fuel Prices

Gasoline and diesel prices saw a slight decline. Petrol moved from Rs. 259.10 to Rs. 249.10 per, a significant difference of 10 Rs. Diesel, following the same path, moved from Rs. 262.75 to Rs. 249.69, a change of Rs. 13.06 Rs.

2.    Suzuki Every Replaces Bolan

Suzuki Bolan has been a constant in Pakistan’s commercial spaces for decades. Finally, Suzuki bids farewell to this obsolete model by replacing it with Suzuki Every, a Kei car used for commercial commutes in Japan. However, the price factor of Every is a bit stressing. According to recent price figures, Bolan was sold for around 19 lacs, whereas Every will be available at an expected price of Rs. 26 lacs.

3.    Cars Sales Expected To Improve

While the Pakistani car industry is at a low, auto financing has been continuously decreasing, leading to decreased interest rates. This difference tends to improve car sales in Pakistan.

4.    Sleepy Drivers Account for 43% of Motorway Accidents.

Distracted and sleepy drivers are the main reason for increasing motorway accidents. According to authorities, drivers doze off onto the steering wheel, which becomes the main reason for car crashes on highways.

5.    Deepal Cars Ready For Sale

Spied shots of Deepal cars, including the SUV S07 and Sedan L07, have surfaced on social media, indicating their upcoming availability at dealerships.

6.    Sindh Initiates Vehicle Transfers Through Biometric

A quite laid-back but impactful decision by the Sindh government states that from October onwards, all vehicle transfers will be done through biometric authentication and not through the obsolete manual documentation method.

7.    Fake Engine Oil Industry – Caught

Engine oil plays a critical role in the functionality of your cars. Since multiple mobile dealers are selling fake engine oil in Pakistan, we advise you to be cautious and buy engine oils only from reliable sources.

8.    Faisalabad Metro Project

Faisalabad announces a Metro train project costing around Rs. 70 Billion aiming for an efficient and affordable commuting method for city dwellers.

9.    Glass Train Project

Another interesting project launch is the Glass Train project extending from Pindi to Murree. This project aims to level up tourism in Pakistan, specifically in the Punjab.
