The mini van or MPV segment of the Pakistani auto industry is a very important segment due to two-main reasons:
  • First, the people of Pakistan value family system and usually live in big/joint families and more often than not service of a bigger vehicle is warranted.
  • Second, the commercial areas in Pakistan are congested and bigger trucks/vans always get a problem of mobility and maneuverability.

The introduction of X-PV in Pakistan helped to bring a much-needed option in the locally manufactured MPV market. 


Considering the improving economic conditions, vehicle penetration and infrastructure projects of Pakistan, the demand for MPV’s and the demand of commercial vehicles is bound to go up in the next couple of years.


Faw XPV is a spacious ambulatory compartment for the comfort of the patients. It has a more improved and strengthened body with a 1000cc engine of Euro 4 emission standard. Before launch, it was said to be cost effective, fuel effective and environment-friendly and to the amusement of the users, it is designed to perfection in all of these.


The main thing which differs this Al Haj FAW XPV Ambulance from other ambulances in Pakistan is its antibacterial and nonskid flooring as well as fireproof and safe electrical wiring. Moreover, it has an 80W multi-tone siren with all the inside and outside lights of the vehicle being LED. FAW has actually groped ample technology in one vehicle, making it a huge success all over Pakistan.
