Are Changan Kalam drivers in hilly regions of Pakistan like Murree o r Swat experiencing faster brake wear due to frequent downhill braking?

Using brakes on slopes increases friction and heat. Are regional driving styles affecting pad longevity?

Yes, absolutely. In hilly regions, continuous downhill driving requires repeated braking, which causes increased friction and heat buildup. This leads to faster pad wear. Drivers in areas like Swat, Murree, Abbottabad, o r Khairagali should expect shorter brake pad life and maintain their braking system more frequently.
