Pakistani motorcycle brand Sothassi has entered the local two-wheeler market with its debut model. The
Sothassi Classic 400 price in Pakistan has been confirmed as an introductory ex-factory rate, and bookings are now open at the company's Rawat facility. The retro-styled roadster targets riders who want to move up from small commuter bikes without paying middleweight-segment money, giving Pakistan's growing 400cc category a new locally assembled contender.
Sothassi Brand Overview
Sothassi is a new Pakistan-origin motorcycle manufacturer named after a spider species native to the Chitral valley, which also appears in the company's emblem. The brand was founded with the goal of building globally competitive motorcycles domestically rather than relying purely on imports. Its founder previously worked on prototype vehicle design before launching Sothassi's own model lineup, which includes the Classic 400 alongside two larger models built with an Austrian motorcycle partner. The Classic 400 is the brand's first commercially priced motorcycle and its introduction to the Pakistani market.
Sothassi Classic 400 Price in Pakistan
The Sothassi Classic 400 price in Pakistan has been officially set at Rs. 845,000 on an introductory ex-factory basis. The company announced the rate through its social media channels and opened bookings soon after, with orders being placed directly at its factory in Rawat. Sothassi has not yet confirmed the booking amount, delivery timeline, or dealership network, so buyers currently need to visit the factory to reserve a unit. Since this is an introductory price, it may be revised once regular production and nationwide availability begin.
Sothassi Classic 400 Specifications and Features
Engine and Performance
The Classic 400 runs a 397.2cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine paired with a carburetor fuel system rather than fuel injection. It produces 26 hp at 7,000 rpm and 30 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm, with both electric and kick-start options. Front and rear disc brakes handle stopping duty. The carburetor setup keeps maintenance simple for local mechanics, though it also means the bike skips the EFI and liquid cooling found on some rivals in this price range.
Design and Comfort
Styling leans heavily retro, with a round headlamp, twin exhausts, teardrop-style tank, and an upright riding stance reminiscent of classic roadsters. The bike measures 2,130 x 760 x 1,140 mm with a 1,420 mm wheelbase, a 790 mm seat height, and 160 mm of ground clearance. A 13-litre fuel tank supports touring use, and tyre sizes are set at 100/90-19 front and 130/70-18 rear.
