Pak Suzuki has blamed the tax hike and the NEV levy for rising production costs. It had already approached the government to reduce the sales tax. It had warned the increase in the sales tax would also impact the sales volume in Pakistan.
The government has also imposed NEV levy on all fuel-based vehicles, including motorcycles and trucks. However, electric and hybrid vehicles have been exempted from it.
The government will not also charge on units made for export and vehicles diplomats or international agencies use. Industry experts have said that this tax would result in widening the prices gap between traditional and electric vehicles.
