Due to the federal government’s considerations, Islamabad may see a substantial increase in withholding taxes on new car purchases. These potential changes won’t just involve a flat increase but could introduce a percentage-based hike, particularly affecting cars with engine capacities ranging from under 850 cc to 2000 cc.
The proposed tax adjustments are part of a new budget plan that will impact vehicles across the board, including popular models like the Toyota Yaris. Additionally, the government has decided to eliminate import tax exemptions on various items, especially luxury vehicles valued at $50,000 or more, which will now face higher taxes and duties.
The Toyota Yaris boasts advanced features such as a multi-information display system that integrates convenience seamlessly into the driving experience. This system provides real-time notifications for door status, Eco wallet and fuel economy data, and detailed driving information accessible at the touch of a button.
Renowned for its engineering excellence, the Yaris offers exhilarating driving dynamics. It is available with two robust engine options: the 1.3L NR and 1.5L NR, paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed CVT transmission.
In terms of safety, the Yaris is equipped with a three-six SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbag setup, which is deployed during severe accidents to mitigate potential harm to occupants.
As discussions progress regarding these tax measures, car buyers and enthusiasts alike are keeping a close watch on developments that could impact the automotive industry in Islamabad.
