Why are many Changan Karvaan owners in Pakistan reporting poor interior material quality such as plastic panels and dashboard trims?

Users frequently complain that cabin plastic feels cheap and prone to cracks o r rattles. Is cost-cutting in materials affecting the van’s long-term durability?

Yes, complaints are widespread.
Owners consistently report:

Hard, low-grade plastic dashboard and door trims

Cracking o r fading of panels under sun exposure

Rattling panels after minor bumps

🎯 Reason: Cost-cutting to keep Karvaan affordable in the 7-seater van market. The material quality is below average compared to Suzuki APV o r older Toyota vans.
