Toyota Indus Motor Company has increased freight charges for delivering its vehicles across Pakistan, pointing to rising fuel prices and higher transportation expenses. The updated charges have come into effect immediately and will apply to vehicles delivered through the company’s dealership network nationwide.
In a notice sent to dealers, the company explained that the revision was necessary because increasing fuel costs are affecting the transport of vehicles from its manufacturing plant in Karachi to dealerships in different parts of the country.
The company said that the current ex factory Karachi retail selling prices of its vehicles have not been changed. However, the revised freight charges will influence the final amount paid by customers because delivery costs are added to the dealership invoice when the vehicle is handed over.
Since Toyota vehicles assembled in Pakistan are shipped from Karachi to cities across the country, delivery costs differ based on distance. Buyers living in areas farther from Karachi may experience a more noticeable rise in the total delivery cost compared to customers in southern regions.

The company added that the updated freight policy will apply to all Toyota vehicles across Pakistan and will also cover “Good to Go” full payment orders recorded in the IMC system. Full payment NCS must be submitted by March 17, 2026.
IMC stated that the change reflects the growing cost of transporting vehicles and that it will continue to keep an eye on fuel prices and overall operating expenses.
