Due to the economic instability, the company was forced to do the same this year. But, the Suzuki bikes price increase this year is Rs, 50,000 till August 2022.
Effects Of Price Hike
Bikes used to be an affordable conveyance for the people of Pakistan. In comparison to cars, bikes are convenient to ride on the congested roads of Pakistan. Also, they are fuel efficient and low cost, so people opt to use bikes for their day-to-day work. But, this continuous price increase is harming the stakes of the buyers of bikes.
Bikes are getting out of reach of many customers in Pakistan which is a hindrance to transport to the public. The government needs to intervene in this matter to stabilize the prices. Otherwise, the people of Pakistan would have no choice other than to stay at home or walk to distances to work.
