For the past three years, rumors about the launch of the locally assembled Suzuki Every have circulated, but each year these claims have been proven false. Initially expected in 2022, hopes shifted to 2023 and the first half of 2024. However, recent reports suggest that the much-anticipated launch may finally happen in the coming weeks of 2024.

Why Suzuki Every is Replacing Suzuki Bolan?
Suzuki Every is set to replace the long-standing Suzuki Bolan, which has dominated its segment for years. The transition stems from a Lahore High Court directive, which ordered the Engineering Development Board (EDB) to enforce international safety standards, including mandatory airbags. Despite the initial deadline in 2021, companies were given an 18-month extension until mid-2023. Shockingly, the Suzuki Bolan is still being sold without airbags.
The EDB has confirmed that by mid-2024, airbags will be mandatory in all locally assembled vehicles, which means the discontinuation of Suzuki Bolan is imminent.
Safety Standards Deadline
- Airbags Requirement: By mid-2024
- Extension Period: Until mid-2023
- Affected Vehicle: Suzuki Bolan
Conclusion
As Suzuki Every is expected to replace Suzuki Bolan, safety concerns are pushing this change, driven by the mandatory installation of airbags. Whether Suzuki Every will finally launch remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the outdated Bolan will soon be phased out. What do you think about this new shift in Pakistan’s auto industry?
