United Bravo Competition
United Bravo competes with
Prince Pearl, Suzuki Alto,
and
Suzuki Mehran
in the Pakistani market.
United Bravo competes with
Prince Pearl
which is also a new car and shares several features with the Bravo. Pearl has similar engine power, same mileage, and almost the same interior features which makes it a strong competitor for United Bravo. It has also been launched recently so its resale value is similar to that of the Bravo.
Suzuki Mehran
has been discontinued in Pakistan but it has been a consumer favorite for a long time. United Bravo was launched as a replacement for Mehran and has a lot more features than Mehran such as power windows, rear camera, keyless entry, and fog lights.
Suzuki Alto
is another strong competitor for United Bravo. With its exceptionally good mileage and larger dimensions, Alto supersedes Bravo. It also falls in the same price range as that of Bravo which makes it an even stronger competitor.
