The middle class in Pakistan, who are already struggling with inflation, are now in a worse financial situation as a result of Atlas Honda’s second price increase in the last 20 days.
The price increases have made it more and more difficult for the average person to buy these well-liked bikes, which are frequently referred to as the ride of the masses.
The burden on Pakistan’s middle class, which is already struggling to make ends meet, has increased as a result of rising prices for both cars and motorcycles. The rupee’s value against the US dollar has fallen as a result of the nation’s economic instability, making it more challenging for companies to import raw materials and pass the costs on to customers.
It remains to be seen how long these price hikes will continue and what effect they will have on the economy and the people of the country.
