Dewan Farooque Motors has launched the light commercial vehicle Kia Shehzore in Karachi today. The vehicle was revealed during a ceremony in Karachi in the presence of the company’s top officials. It is pertinent to mention that the company announced the launch of Shehzore and a small electric vehicle (EV) in a few days. “We look forward to continuing to serve the people of Pakistan with high-quality products and after-sales services through our strong nationwide dealership network,” the company stated.

Company officials earlier told the media that they are going to launch three variants of Shehzore: Standard Cabin, King Cabin, and Grand Cabin (Double Cabin). Importantly, the double cabin is being introduced for the first time in Pakistan.
This Dewan Motors plant was shut down in 2015 when the company was assembling passenger cars under the name Hyundai Sonata and commercial vehicles under the name Shehzore. The company has been working to reopen the plant, and in 2022, Dewan Motors signed a Technical License Agreement (TLA) with Kia Corporation for the assembly and manufacturing of special-purpose commercial vehicles.
