Tez Raftar Sixer

Engine and gearbox

The Sixer shares its engine with the rest of the 200cc Tez Raftar passenger range: a 197cc, single-cylinder, four-stroke unit with liquid cooling. Pak Star rates it at 10.3 kW (about 13.8 hp) at 7,500 rpm, with 14.2 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. The manual gearbox has four forward speeds plus reverse, and you can start it with the electric starter or the kick lever.

Fuel and running costs

You can run it on petrol from the 6.5-litre tank or on CNG from a 22 to 30 litre (water capacity) cylinder. Pak Star’s claimed economy is 28 to 30 km per litre on petrol and 36 to 40 km per kg on CNG. Expect lower numbers with a full load of passengers.

Size and practicality

Pak Star’s own page calls the Sixer a seven-seater, although third-party price lists describe it as a six-seater, so confirm the seat layout with the dealer. It is 2,950 mm long, 1,220 mm wide and 1,900 mm tall, with a 2,065 mm wheelbase. Unladen weight is 415 kg and rated load capacity is 600 kg. The turning circle is 5,940 mm. Like the Supreme, it uses a C-section steel channel frame and a steel-pipe hood frame covered in rexene, coated cloth or canvas.

Brakes, suspension and tyres

Suspension is two heavy-duty shock absorbers and two dampers at the front, and two leaf springs with two dampers at the rear. A mechanical drum brakes the front wheel and a hydraulic disc the rear. Tyres are 135-10 tube type with a 10-ply rating, and the battery is 12 V 34 Ah.

Versions and price

The third-party list names two versions at the same Rs 434,000 price: the standard Sixer and the Sixer Tanga Body, which differs in body style. Only the standard Sixer appears on Pak Star’s website, so check that the Tanga Body is still built. Prices on that list date from around 2024 and are described as ex-factory and including GST. Warranty terms and colours are not published online.

Which version to buy

Our opinion: mechanically the two versions are the same, so choose by looks and by what passengers in your area prefer. The standard Sixer is the safer choice because it is the one Pak Star still shows on its website, which should make body parts easier to find. If you want face-to-face seating instead, look at the F2F.
