AVATR 07 Max RWD vs Ultra AWD in Pakistan: is PKR 2m extra justified?

AVATR 07 price in Pakistan: launch references, not a current official tariff

AVATR Pakistan now publishes a local 07 model page, brochure and Master Changan specification sheet, confirming that Max RWD and Ultra AWD are Pakistan-market variants. The accessible official page and specification sheet do not state a retail price. Two dated launch reports published on 3 and 4 October 2026 independently quote PKR 20,000,000 for Max RWD and PKR 22,000,000 for Ultra AWD, with a reported PKR 4,000,000 booking amount. [1,2,3,4]

CarRates therefore records those two amounts as reported launch references rather than guaranteed current official prices. Registration, withholding tax, freight, insurance, charger installation, accessories and any later revision may change the payable total. Obtain a dated quotation naming the exact variant, model year, colour, delivery month, refund terms and every additional charge before payment.

The same battery supports two very different performance levels

Both variants use an 82.16 kWh lithium-iron-phosphate battery and what AVATR calls a full-stack 800V silicon-carbide platform. Max RWD has one 252 kW permanent-magnet rear motor, rated at 338 hp and 365 Nm. Ultra AWD adds a 188 kW asynchronous front motor for a stated combined 440 kW—590 hp—and 645 Nm. [2]

AVATR claims 0–100 km/h in no more than 6.8 seconds for RWD and 3.9 seconds for AWD. These are manufacturer figures, not independent Pakistan road tests. The extra acceleration is substantial on paper, but it should not outweigh tyre cost, insurance, ride quality and how often full performance can be used safely.

575 km and 545 km are NEDC figures, not road guarantees

The official Pakistan sheet lists 575 km NEDC for Max RWD and 545 km NEDC for Ultra AWD. The lighter RWD variant is rated at 2,290 kg, while AWD is 2,420 kg. NEDC is a laboratory cycle and generally should not be read as a guaranteed motorway or summer result. Speed, heat, air conditioning, gradient, payload, tyre pressure and usable battery reserve all affect real range. [2]

Map the regular return journey, include a conservative reserve and inspect dependable charging options before buying. A buyer unable to charge at home or work should not assume that a large published cycle number removes public-charging inconvenience.

The 420 kW charging headline needs the footnote

AVATR lists up to 420 kW DC and 6.6 kW AC charging, a 10-minute 30–80 percent DC claim and 3.3 kW vehicle-to-load output. The specification footnote says the DC result is based on announced or engineering-development simulation values and can vary with weather, road conditions, state of charge, load and tyres. [2]

Peak power is not the average charging rate and requires a compatible high-output charger, suitable battery temperature and state of charge. Ask which cable and home-charging hardware are included, then obtain a qualified site survey for available load, protection, earthing and cable route. AVATR also says the V2L accessory plug is purchased separately.

Ultra adds chassis hardware, larger wheels and a richer cabin

Both variants use double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension with magnesium-aluminium components. Ultra alone adds self-levelling air suspension, continuous damping control and intelligent U-turn assist. RWD uses 255/50 R20 tyres and 166 mm stated ground clearance; AWD uses 265/45 R21 tyres and 155 mm. [2]

The larger Ultra wheels may sharpen appearance but reduce sidewall depth and can raise replacement cost. Drive both variants over the same broken surfaces, speed humps and parking ramps. Confirm tyre availability and price before assuming the more complex suspension is automatically the better Pakistan setup.

Both variants receive Nappa leather, 14-way powered front seats, zero-gravity function, front massage and ventilation, front-and-rear heating, a 35.4-inch panoramic screen and 15.6-inch central display. Max has a 16-speaker Pioneer system; Ultra adds a 25-speaker 2,016-watt Meridian system and intelligent fragrance system. [2]

Safety equipment is broad, but assistance is not autonomy

AVATR's Pakistan sheet lists front, side, curtain, rear-side and front-centre airbag coverage, ABS, stability and traction control, tyre-pressure monitoring, eleven exterior cameras, twelve ultrasonic sensors and one millimetre-wave radar. It also lists automatic emergency braking, blind-spot detection, lane warnings, adaptive cruise, lane centring, 360-degree view and parking assistance on both variants. [2]

These are equipment claims, not an independent crash-test result or permission to disengage from driving. Confirm the precise vehicle software, calibration, warning behaviour and warranty support. Ask for the vehicle, battery and high-voltage warranties in writing because the public specification sheet does not state every coverage term or capacity-retention condition.
