Honda Atlas increases car prices due to 'FED impact'

Following Pak Suzuki and Indus Motor Company, Honda Atlas Cars (Pakistan) has also increased prices across its lineup by up to Rs126,000, confirmed multiple dealerships to Business Recorder.

The latest hike, they say, is due to the increase in Federal Excise Duty (FED) in the recently announced Finance (Supplementary) bill 2022.

Following are the revised prices:

Prices of Honda City's 1.2L MT and 1.2L CVT have remained unchanged at Rs2,729,000 and Rs2,949,000, respectively.
