The automotive industry rightly prides itself on being recognized as the �mother of all industries.� In its folds it carries many different kinds of vehicles to provide mobility to people and goods. While they may appear to be simple machines, their design and manufacturing have much deeper roots in all the known technologies. In-depth knowledge and skillful application of mechanical, electrical, electronics, chemical and a host of other technologies culminate in achievement and improvement of the manufacturing base of a country, by focusing on a single product the automobile. This then provides an opportunity to produce a large number of goods and services for consumption of the entire international community. Use of the word �mother� for automotive industry is therefore the most appropriate description to define the nature and importance of the industry.
The Automobile industry has been an active and growing field in Pakistan for a long time, however not as much established to figure in the prominent list of the top automotive industries. Pakistan has a large range of motorbikes which are used throughout the whole of the country for terms of transportation. In the past, there have been talks about expanding the industry however nothing has been heard till now. Cars are imported to the country in large figures from Japan and people buy mostly manual cars rather than automatic.
