Chery Pakistan having teamed up with Ghandhara Nissan (GNL) is on the verge of launching the Tiggo 4 Pro and Tiggo 8 Pro crossovers in Pakistan as local CKD production is in full swing and locally assembled right-hand drive units are already being dispatched to dealerships across the country. This is again a sound move to begin assembling the vehicles locally prior to formal launch, contrary to some newcomers setting example of launching vehicles with local production not in sight thus causing sheer agony to the customers.
