The vehicles will hit the roads in 2023. However, Pakistan Auto Show 2021 is commencing on October 14th at Karachi Expo Center. Like all other major brands, Premier Automobiles is going to showcase the upcoming Volkswagen cars over there. Here is the complete list with key features and expected prices of Volkswagen cars we might come across at the event.
Volkswagen Amarok
The Volkswagen Amarok is a midsize crew-cabin pickup truck. It competes with the Isuzu D-Max, Ford Ranger, Toyota Hilux, Nissan Nivara, Mitsubishi L-200, and other pickup trucks in its segment. Anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control, a full-time four-wheel-drive powertrain, reversing cameras, rear parking sensors, cruise control, dual-zone climate control, a 6.3-inch infotainment unit with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, 14-way power-adjustable seats, a multi-function steering wheel, and other features are standard in the car. Volkswagen Amarok price in Pakistan is yet to be announced.
Volkswagen Tiguan
Compact crossover SUVs such as the Kia Sportage, Hyundai Tucson, Toyota RAV4, and Mazda CX5 compete with the Tiguan. Dual-zone automated climate control, a panoramic sunroof, adaptive cruise control, an overhead view camera, front collision warning, autonomous emergency braking, park distance control, lane-keeping system, and blind-spot monitor with rear traffic alert are just a few of the sophisticated features of the vehicle. However, the Volkswagen Tiguan price in Pakistan is not revealed yet.
Volkswagen ID.4
The ID.4 is a small crossover SUV. It competes in the international market with Tesla’s Model Y, Chevrolet’s Bolt, Nissan’s Ariya, Ford’s Mach-E, and the future MG Marvel R. The top-tier level has a range of 400 kilometers. The high-mid-tier variant has a range of 410 kilometers, while the low-mid-tier and base variants have a range of roughly 290 kilometers. The lowest models come with 52 kWh battery packs, while the higher models come with 77 kWh battery packs.
It sports a long list of features, including DC fast charging, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning. Moreover autonomous emergency braking, driver attention warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, parking sensors, dual-zone automatic climate control with rear air vents, a 10-inch touch-sensitive infotainment unit, heated seats, and a panoramic sunroof are among its key highlights. Volkswagen ID.4 price in Pakistan is not confirmed by the company.
Volkswagen Polo
Polo is undoubtedly the most popular subcompact hatchback in the world, notably in Europe and the United Kingdom. Hyundai i20, SEAT Ibiza, Skoda Fabia, Suzuki Swift, Peugeot 208, and Toyota Yaris are its competitors. Despite its status as an “economy car,” the Polo impresses with its features. It comes standard with a 6.5-inch smart infotainment screen, driver and passenger airbags, front disc brakes with anti-lock brakes, automatic climate control, and rear parking sensors, a backup camera, and an immobilizer system, among other features. Volkswagen Polo price in Pakistan will be market competitive.
The prices of Volkswagen cars will more or less decide its fate in Pakistan�s price-sensitive market. However, Volkswagen’s brand value and quality will make it a fierce contender in the country. The competition is growing and new entrants are eyeing their launches in Pakistan. Pakistan Auto Show 2021 is sure to attract a decent number of eyeballs.
