Frequently asked

Glossary

1

OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)

A manufacturer that builds parts or vehicles fitted as original equipment on a new vehicle, usually supplying the assembly line under a supply contract.

2

OES (Original Equipment Supplier) parts

Components made by the same supplier that builds for the assembly line but sold through the service channel, often branded and boxed for dealer networks.

3

Aftermarket

The independent supply chain that sells replacement parts, accessories, lubricants and equipment for vehicles already on the road, outside the vehicle maker's own dealer network.

4

Genuine vs aftermarket parts

Genuine parts carry the vehicle maker's brand and packaging; aftermarket parts are made by independent manufacturers and can be equivalent, budget or performance-oriented depending on quality tier.

5

CKD (Completely Knocked Down) kits

Vehicle sets shipped as disassembled components for local assembly, a common model in Pakistan's car, truck and two-wheeler plants.

6

SKD (Semi Knocked Down) kits

Partially assembled vehicle sets that need fewer local operations than CKD kits, typically used to meet local content and tariff rules.

7

Localisation / local content

The share of a vehicle built from domestically sourced parts; it drives demand for locally made castings, forgings, plastics, wiring, batteries and electronics shown at auto-parts fairs.

8

Filtration and consumables

Oil, air, fuel and cabin filters plus belts, brake pads, wipers and fluids that generate recurring replacement demand across the vehicle parc.

9

Two- and three-wheeler segment

Motorcycles, scooters and three-wheelers are the highest-volume vehicle segment in Pakistan, creating heavy aftermarket demand for tyres, chains, sprockets, batteries and small engine parts.

10

EV / electric mobility

Battery-electric and hybrid vehicles and their components, including battery packs, chargers, motors and power electronics, a fast-developing category in South Asian auto shows.

11

Emission standards (Euro II to Euro VI)

Engine and fuel-quality tiers that set permissible exhaust limits; each step up reshapes demand for fuel injection, exhaust after-treatment and diagnostic equipment.

12

Telematics and connected vehicle

In-vehicle hardware and software that tracks location, driver behaviour, fuel use and diagnostics, increasingly sold into commercial fleets and insurance programmes.

13

ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems)

Cameras, radar, sensors and software supporting functions such as lane keeping, automatic braking and parking assistance, plus aftermarket retrofit kits.

14

OBD diagnostics

On-board diagnostic ports and scan tools used by workshops to read fault codes, service intervals and emission data on modern vehicles.

15

Lubricant grades (API / ACEA)

Industry classifications such as API and ACEA that define oil performance for petrol, diesel and heavy-duty engines; grade choice matters for warranty and fleet contracts.

16

Workshop equipment

Lifts, tyre changers, wheel balancers, alignment rigs, compressors, spray booths and hand tools sold to garages and service chains.

17

Distributor vs dealer

A distributor buys stock in volume and resells to garages, retailers and sub-dealers across a territory; a dealer sells to end users, often under a brand franchise.

18

Trade-only B2B exhibition

A fair where admission is restricted to industry buyers, distributors and press rather than the general public; registration usually requires business credentials.
