Honda HR-V has garnered massive interest from Pakistani car buyers despite the ongoing economic turmoil in the country. Due to a reported large number of bookings and limited production numbers, Honda Atlas Cars Limited (HACL) has extended its delivery time up to 9 months.
A 3S dealership representative told ProPakistani that the delivery time for HR-V VTi-S is July 2023, while that for VTi is September 2023.
He added that the VTi variant has received more orders than the VTi-S, hence the lengthier lead time. A report from Autojournal.pk claims that both variants are readily available with Rs. 500,000 ‘own money’ at certain dealerships.
