FAQs

Which car gives the best fuel average under 15 lacs?

Suzuki Mehran EFI typically gives the highest city mileage, around 14 to 15 km per liter.

Is the Suzuki Cultus better than Mehran?

For comfort, space, and a smoother drive, yes. For the lowest maintenance cost, Mehran wins.

Is Daihatsu Cuore fuel-efficient?

The manual version is reasonable, but it is not a mileage champion compared to EFI models.

Should I buy a carbureted car or an EFI car within this budget?

EFI is always better for fuel economy and smoother performance, especially with rising petrol prices in Pakistan.

What matters more than model year?

Condition. A clean, well-maintained engine is more important than a newer registration.

Final Thoughts

Under 15 lacs, buying a used car in Pakistan is all about compromise. You choose between fuel efficiency, comfort, AC performance, and resale value.

If pure mileage and low running cost matter most, the Suzuki Mehran EFI remains the safest bet. If you want a better daily driving experience without sacrificing too much fuel economy, the Suzuki Cultus EFI offers the best balance.

Cuore and Alto are comfort-focused alternatives but come with slightly higher fuel bills.

In today’s rising petrol price environment, smart buyers focus on EFI technology, engine condition, and maintenance history rather than badge value. Buy the cleanest car you can find, verify documents properly, and prioritize mechanical health over cosmetic shine.
