Changan Pakistan has increased the prices of several models following the new budget and rising operational costs. The Changan Oshan price hike stands out as the most significant, with up to Rs 200,000 added to some variants.
The new prices affect popular models like the Oshan X7, Alsvin, Karvaan, and Sherpa. The increase comes after the government imposed a New Energy Vehicle (NEV) adoption levy ranging from 1% to 3%, depending on engine size. This tax has impacted the entire locally assembled automotive industry.
The Changan Oshan price hike affects both FS (5- and 7-seater) variants, which have each gone up by Rs 200,000. The Comfort (7-seater) variant has also seen a Rs 175,000 increase.
Below is a table of updated prices for Changan’s vehicles:

The Changan Oshan price hike reflects a broader trend in Pakistan’s car market. Due to the new NEV levy and higher fuel and manufacturing costs, many automakers are revising prices.
While some companies have absorbed part of the cost, most—including Changan—have passed the burden onto buyers. This move is likely to affect car sales, especially for premium models.
Buyers planning to purchase a Changan vehicle may want to act quickly or explore other options, as further adjustments could follow in the coming months.
