Pak Suzuki launches Wagon R AGS

[Mark-x]

As per the document which the company has shared with its dealers across the country, the all-new Wagon R with Automated Gear Shift Transmission (AGS), is coming with an airbag. Moreover, the price of the car, w.e.f January 1, 2020, is set at PKR 1,890,000/. The circular also reads that the company has sold more than 100,000 units of Wagon R since its launch. 

 

Aside from Wagon R AGS, there are already two more variants available in the market right now, which are Suzuki Wagon R VXR and Suzuki Wagon R VXL.

Wagon R has lost significant market share over the past six months or so. The imposition of Federal Excise Duty (FED) as well as the devaluation of Pakistani Rupee against the US dollar surged its price massively. As a result, its sales have dropped, and consumers prefer to purchase the 660cc Alto instead. In the first five months of the ongoing fiscal year, its sales have declined by a massive 74.97%. The automaker only managed to sell 3339 units of Wagon R in the July-November period. Pak Suzuki produced 6356 units of its hatchback in this period, which shows the low demand in the market. Have a look at the comparison of sales stats of Wagon R in the fiscal year 2019-20 with its corresponding period last year.
