Rumors of Delayed Launch

According to the Pakistan Automotive Manufacturers Association (PAMA), Honda Atlas witnessed a sharp decline of 29% as company sold just 1280 units in September 2022 compared to 1809 units the previous month (August 2022), which is why the company may consider postponing the launch of their new crossover SUV.
