Bangla Car and Car industry in Bangladesh
Usually, Maa Enterprise directly imports the DFSK’s Glory i-Auto in Bangladesh. Bangla Cars Ltd is in fact an authorized assembler of DFSK. In fact, the deal between Bangla Cars and DFSK was one and a half years old. The activities didn’t go any further because of the impact of coronavirus.
Still, Bangla Cars Ltd has been making cars with the parts assembled from worldwide reputed companies such as China, India, Japan, and Indonesia. With ISUZU of Japan for the engine, the body parts from China, and the chassis parts from Indonesia, they have been building the cars.
The Haval cars directly originate from China, Toyota originates from Japan whereas Bangla Car is completely Made in Bangladesh. PHP is manufacturing Photon’s car, Progoti is manufacturing Mitsubishi’s car where Bangla Cars Ltd is making the Bangladeshi car.
Unlike Photon or Mitsubishi, they are capable of building the cars of all models.
However, although the selling activities are up, the official journey has not started yet.
They had a schedule for an opening ceremony in the last 26 March. But due to ongoing pandemic situations, they postponed it after Eid. From this June, Bangla Car will start its journey with pickups.
They already have a showroom in 181-182 Tejgaon. They showcase the cars there in 8 different colors. They are Red wine, Electric Blue, Mid-Night Blue, Brown, White, Silver, Red, and Black. Apart from this, they are also ready to feature the on-demand color for the clients’ needs. The new model car of 2021 has already been taken to the showroom.
Most necessarily, such an SUV (sporty utility vehicle) costs more than 10 million Taka where you can get it at only 3 million Taka.

For the first phase, showrooms will be opened in each of 8 divisions of the country. Moreover, the carmaker company is going to launch 30 more showrooms over the country.
In every making, all of the manufacturing processes will focus on domestic brand and design. Subsequently, Bangla Cars Ltd plans to deliver the cars from 1500 to 2500 cc to meet the clients’ demand. If everything goes as plan, they are about to export the car in the middle of the next year. Even like Toyota, they hope to export besides fulfilling the domestic demands. Now the cars are on trial production. After June-July, they expect to manage more cars commercially. Then they will be able to show the cars made in Bangladesh to the world.
Moreover, they are going to launch the electric car next year. Consequently, Bangladesh will get a place in the thriving worldwide automobile industry.
The users will get all types of car facilities from Bangladesh. The carmaker company already plans to marketize 4-5 thousand cars every year. And, that will certainly cover all types of vehicles including electric vehicles. As a result, there will be a remarkable contribution to the Bangladesh economy.
