International automaker all set to launch new hatchback in Pakistan

ISLAMABAD – United Motors is all set to introduce an automatic version ofits 800CC Bravo hatchback in the first half of next year.

The company, after asking for feedback from its customers, worked on thecar and tweaked a few things before relaunching it of sorts. In theimproved version, the company is offering 3 new colors and has worked onthe engine, the exterior – with changes to the door handles – as well theinterior.

Although in lieu of these changes, the company hiked the price tag by Rs.60,000 and the manual variant is now priced at PKR9.85 lakh.

At present, United Bravo is the only locally assembled 800CC hatchback inthe country but it will soon face stiff competition from the soon to belaunched Prince Pearl. The Pearl, just like the Bravo, will have bothmanual and automatic variants and is expected to hit the markets in January2020.

On paper, the move to introduce an automatic variant makes sense and willhelp Bravo compete but for now, the Bravo is limited to a few cities and isyet to expand nationwide.
