If you’re in Karachi and searching for an affordable city car that gets the job done without breaking the bank, you might want to take a closer look at the 2006 Chery QQ listings on platforms like OLX and PakWheels.
These compact hatchbacks are becoming a go-to choice for daily commuters, students, and first-time car owners looking to make their money go further.
Launched in Pakistan in the mid-2000s, the Chery QQ was China’s budget-friendly answer to popular small cars like the Suzuki Mehran and Daihatsu Cuore. With its cheerful design and reputation for solid fuel economy, it quickly found favour among buyers who needed a practical and low-maintenance ride for city life.
A scroll through the listings shows several 2006 models up for grabs in Karachi. Most come with essentials like working air conditioning, power steering, and what sellers describe as reliable engines. Prices vary based on condition, mileage, and upkeep, ranging from around Rs450,000 to Rs700,000.
One example we came across was priced at Rs640,000, with the seller saying it has mainly been used within the city and is still running strong. Given the price of some ageing Mehrans in similar condition, the QQ might actually be a smarter pick.
Powered by a modest 800cc engine, the QQ isn’t built for speed, but it does well where it matters , fuel efficiency and ease of use in city traffic. It doesn’t come loaded with modern tech or premium features, but if you’re looking for something simple that gets you from A to B, it delivers on that promise.
Spare parts for the QQ are generally available in major markets, though buyers should be mindful of wear and tear, which can vary from car to car. It’s always a good idea to bring along a mechanic and check all documentation before sealing the deal.
Whether you’re after a small car for your daily office run, a student vehicle, or a practical second car for the family, the Chery QQ remains one of the most wallet-friendly options on Karachi’s used car scene. Keep an eye on online listings and local car bazaars, you might just find a deal worth driving home.
