After Kia Lucky Motors added Capital Value Tax (CVT) to its lines, the pricing of Kia automobiles in Pakistan was modified. The Finance Act 2022 mandates a 1 percent CVT on vehicles with engines larger than 1300cc. The new tax is also applied to all orders starting on July 1, 2022.
Here are the updated prices once this new tax has been applied.
Kia Picanto
So because Kia Picanto’s engine is under 1300cc, the CVT is not relevant, therefore its pricing are unaffected.
Kia Stonic
And here’s the new price after taxes for the Kia Stonic, the company’s first vehicle to be impacted by the CVT.
• Due to the imposition of a Rs. 44,250 CVT, the first model, Stonic EX, would now cost Rs. 4,469,250 as opposed to the previous price of Rs. 4,425,000.
• An additional Rs. 47,250 is added as Capital Value Tax to the second model, Stonic EX+, bringing the cost up to Rs. 4,772,250 from Rs. 4,725,000.
