In a bold move to commemorate its 35 years of operations in Pakistan, Toyota Indus Motors has rolled out major price cuts on all trims of its Corolla Cross SUV. The company’s latest limited-time promotion, effective from August 1, 2025, reduces prices by up to Rs. 614,000 — a significant incentive likely to draw attention in a challenging automotive market.
Limited-Time Discounts Across All Variants
Here’s how the new pricing stacks up (ex-factory, Karachi):
- Corolla Cross 1.8 HEV X: Previously priced at Rs. 9,449,000, now available for Rs. 8,935,000 — a reduction of Rs. 514,000.
- Corolla Cross 1.8 HEV: Down from Rs. 8,999,000 to Rs. 8,535,000 — saving Rs. 464,000.
- Corolla Cross 1.8 X: Gets a Rs. 564,000 cut, now priced at Rs. 7,935,000 (previously Rs. 8,499,000).
- Corolla Cross 1.8: The base variant sees the steepest drop — Rs. 614,000 off, bringing the price down to Rs. 7,235,000 from Rs. 7,849,000.
What’s Behind the Discount Strategy?
According to Toyota, this pricing strategy is part of its 35th-anniversary celebration in Pakistan. However, beyond the celebration tagline, the move seems to be aimed at reinvigorating interest in the Corolla Cross amid rising competition and a sluggish auto market, where affordability has become a growing concern for buyers.
Offer Scope and Market Impact
Notably, the price cuts apply only to the Corolla Cross lineup. Toyota hasn’t extended similar promotions to other models in its portfolio — at least not yet. The timing of the offer suggests Toyota is focusing on boosting SUV sales before the year-end, leveraging the Cross’s hybrid credentials and premium feel to win over middle-to-upper segment buyers.
If you’re eyeing a new hybrid SUV and waiting for prices to cool off, this might be the window to act. But with limited availability confirmed, expect demand to spike fast.
