The story

Atlas Honda was founded as Atlas Autos Limited following a technical collaboration agreement with Honda Motor Company in 1963, focusing on motorcycle production and sales in Pakistan. The first manufacturing facility was established in Karachi. Later, Honda Atlas also established a manufacturing plant in East Pakistan called Atlas Epak Limited but it was lost after the independence of Bangladesh.

In 1976, Honda Atlas launched CD-70 and CG-125 in Pakistan. Three years later, in 1979, Honda Atlas established a second motorcycle manufacturing plant in Sheikhupura, named Panjdarya Limited.

In 1988, a joint venture agreement with Honda was signed in 1988. Both Atlas Autos Limited and Panjdarya Limited operated were merged in 1991, and the consolidated entity began operating as Atlas Honda Limited.
