IN THE LAST FEW ETERNITY THERE WAS RAIN OF SUVS IN PAKISTAN AND A LOT OF NEW COMPANIES STARTED TO LAUNCH NEW SUVS AND CARS IN PAKISTAN. SUVS WERE LAUNCHED BY KIA, HYUNDAI, CHANGAN, TOYOTA, PROTON AND DFSK GLORY. BESIDES THIS Prince KNOWN AS DFSK AND UNITED MOTORS LAUNCHED THEIR SMALL HATCHBACKS IN PAKISTAN WHICH COMPETE for MEHRAN( AKA BOSS ) AND LAST GENERATION OF ALTO AND WAGONR.

FIRSTLY THEY LAUNCHED UNITED BRAVO WITH AN 800CC ENGINE THEN UNITED ALPHA WITH A 1000CC ENGINE AND THEN DFSK LAUNCHED PRINCE PEARL WITH AN 800 ENGINE AS WELL.

UNITED BRAVO
United Auto Industries (Pvt) Ltd. came into existence in 1999 by introducing economical 4-stroke motorcycles and Auto rickshaws with the brand name UNITED.[citation needed]
United Auto was firstly got famous for their loaders, scooters, rickshaws and bikes in Pakistan but now they planned to launch an 800cc car named “United Bravo” and “united alpha” in September 2018 and a 1000cc & 800cc light commercial vehicle in fall 2018 or mid-2019. In 2017, the United Auto Industries applied for IPO for the copyright of vehicles’ design and announced to launch of 800cc and 1000cc vehicles in the country. It has a joint venture with a Chinese automaker to produce these two new vehicles for the Pakistani market.

its ex-factory prices are 1600000pkr/-
and quite the pretty best price bracket beacause its competitor WagonR cost 3+ million which is worth less and not value to money but united alpha don’t have an anti-locking breaks system and power steering and consumer claimed that its built quality is not that much better and air condition didn’t work properly and don’t have air bags so no safety features but spare parts will be available on the dealership and easy to buy…
