According to sources, Pak Suzuki is planning to launch the Alto by June 2019. Official prices are yet to be announced but it is speculated to fall between PKR 9.5 lac to PKR 11.5 lac. However with the Rupee constantly depreciating against the US Dollar, it’s hard to predict the actual prices at this stage.
