Despite a market embracing new trends and technology, the iconic Honda CD 70 remains a dominant force in Pakistan's two-wheeler industry. This classic motorcycle, featuring a design largely unchanged since the 1990s, holds an impressive 40% share of the country's motorcycle market.
Analysts attribute this enduring popularity to the CD 70's focus on practicality. Its fuel efficiency makes travel economical, while its rugged build tackles everything from city streets to rural roads. The CD 70's affordability remains unmatched, and its simple design allows for easy maintenance by local mechanics.
Though the Pakistani rupee has strengthened against the US dollar, Honda is yet to announce price reductions for the CD 70.
Industry experts believe that Atlas Honda will likely hold off on price changes until the end of the outgoing fiscal year — which will end on June 30.
This decision reflects broader market trends and strategic planning within the auto industry. For those looking to buy a CD 70 or following the market, this means stable prices in June 2024. As the motorcycle industry adapts to economic changes, future price adjustments and product updates remain to be seen.
