Government focus and persistent incentives through ADP 2016-21 and AIDEP 2021-2026 have broken the Big-3 nexus and increased total number of automobile manufacturing and assembling firms to over 15 in Pakistan. Additionally, while production capacity has more than doubled in the last one decade, but automobile sales remain stagnant.

The local parts and vendor industry is largely disintegrated from GVC while exports of automobiles and auto parts remain negligible.
