Big increase in Suzuki Cultus and Swift Prices in Pakistan amid ‘Safety Upgrades’.
Pak Suzuki increased prices of two popular hatchback models in Pakistan, the Suzuki Cultus and Swift.
The Cultus now has an updated price starting from Rs4.23 million for the base model, while the Swift’s price stands around Rs4.3million.
While the price increase comes as a surprise to many, Cultus is already facing slow sales as compared to Alto and other entry-level cars, but Pakistanis still trust it due to its strong resale value and easy availability of spare parts.
The earlier models of the Cultus, however, had faced some criticisms, especially regarding cabin noise on long drives and the average quality of paint.
Suzuki claimed several new features in the updated Cultus, particularly focused on enhancing passenger safety.
These changes, along with the added features, have contributed to the overall price hike across all variants.
Cultus Price in Pakistan
| Model | New Price | Price Increase |
| Cultus VXR | 4,230,000 | 372,000 |
| Cultus VXL | 4,316,000 | 72,000 |
| Cultus AGS | 4,618,000 | 72,000 |
New Safety Features
Rear center seatbelt
Rear head restraints for comfort
Driver seatbelt warning buzzer, with a display on the speedometer
ISO-FIX child seat anchors
Child seat anchor garnish
These upgrades, along with additional improvements in safety, have led to the price increases across all variants of the vehicle.
Suzuki Swift New Price in Pakistan
Suzuki also announced new prices for its Swift model. The Swift GL MT variant, which was previously priced at Rs4.3 million, now costs Rs4.416 million after a Rs80,000 increase. This follows a steady rise in Suzuki’s sales in recent months.
Suzuki Swift New Price
| Variant | New Price | Price Increase |
| Swift GL MT | 4,416,000 | 80,000 |
| Swift GL CVT | 4,560,000 | 80,000 |
| Swift GLX CVT | 4,719,000 | 80,000 |
Suzuki has clarified that the new prices are provisional and could be subject to further revisions.
The company also stated that any applicable government taxes or additional fees at the time of delivery will be borne by the customers.
Cultus and Swift remain strong contenders in the hatchback market, offering a combination of stylish designs, modern features, and improved safety options.
However, with rising production costs and the addition of new features, vehicle prices in Pakistan have steadily increased over the past year, making it more challenging for potential buyers.
