The special feature is that the car

country in car production. In the first phase, there will be showrooms of Bangla
Cars in 8 divisions of the country. Besides, the manufacturer is going to open
30 more showrooms across the country.
In the meantime, a showroom has been
opened at Tejgaon industrial area in the capital. Where some cars of different colors
of the native own brand Glory i-Auto has been displayed. The new model car of
2021 is also being decorated in the showroom. As per the information, the
factory of Bangla Cars is located in Panchabati of Fatullah, Narayanganj. 12
types of vehicles will be produced and marketed from there including Cars, Trucks,
Buses, Lorries and Pickups etc.
However, although the car sales
activities have started, but the official journey has not started yet. Though
it was supposed to be inaugurated on March 26 of 2021, the inauguration
ceremony has been postponed due to the COVID-19 situation. If all goes well,
the official inauguration will take place soon.
The Hossain Group is working jointly
with Japan, Indonesia and China to manufacture Bangladeshi Car as a brand name
of ‘Bangla Car’. The MD also said, we are going to manufacture cars with local
brands, local designs. The cars will be a combination of ISUZU Japanese
engines, Chinese bodies and Indonesian chassis. These cars are different from
other brands. Photon or Mitsubishi can make one or two models of cars in the
country but Bangla Car can manufacture variety of models. From 1500 to 2500 cc and
even different colors based on buyer needs.
The Made in Bangladesh Car is not a
foreign car brand, the factory is producing own car for the first time in own
name in the country. Toyota is a Japanese company, Haval is a Chinese company same
as Bangla Car is a Bangladeshi car manufacturing company. Like TATA of India, the
company will meet the demand of the country and then will start export. The
company is now in trial production, more cars will come within upcoming months,
the world will see a new car named as Bangla Car which will be 'Made in
Bangladesh Car.'
The company will start manufacturing Pickup,
Lorry and Truck soon. There will be total 12 types of vehicles including Buses.
Moreover, electric cars will be launched next year. PHP is making cars with Photon's,
Pragati is making with Mitsubishi. But the Bangla Car is the country’s first
own brand.
All services and facilities of the manufactured
vehicles will be available from Bangladesh. The company has a plan of producing
four to five thousand cars every year. Their plan is to produce various kinds
of vehicles including electric motorcycles, electric vehicles, big lorry
trucks, cement carries etc. Five years warranty / guarantee will be provided
for each vehicle. Bangla Cars Limited plans to build up an integrated base of
production, marketing and service in the whole country for our own Made in
Bangladesh Car.
