Khodrocar - Omid Qalibaf stated in a television interview: "Sometimes production may decrease due to the supply chain, and sometimes, for example, in the summer season due to power outages and other cases, the production process may decrease." These items can be categorized into two parts, but overall production is important and should grow, while daily and monthly production is not the criterion.
The spokesperson of the Ministry of Industry is silent on whether the increase or decrease in the amount of production in a month can affect the price. He said: No; Because the changes are not significant; For example, Iran Khodro produced 2,000 units per day in July and 2,400 units in August, the difference in production was about 200 to 300 units, and this difference does not affect the market much, because if the production is reduced in one month, this The problem is compensated in the months when the production increases.
Stating that the two Iran Khodro and Saipa companies went on summer vacation in August, he added: In total, these two companies had 19 working days in August, but the working day in July was 24 days.
Pointing out that production in Iran Khodro, Saipa and other car manufacturers in August increased by 4.6% compared to July, Qalibaf said: The production trend in Iran Khodro in August compared to July was a decrease that Saipa and other Automakers compensated by increasing production, which means that the 4.6% growth was due to the growth of all automakers.
He added: Automobile manufacturers produce cars according to their capacity, and currently we do not have any problems in terms of demand, but automobile manufacturers face problems in some bottlenecks and at some points in time, and their production decreases. On the contrary, sometimes their production increases.
Qalibaf stated that the amount of cars produced last year did not reach 900,000 units, and said: The production of 1,600,000 units is targeted for this year. 750,000 units are planned for Iran Khodro, 650,000 units for Saipa and the rest for other private car manufacturers.
The spokesperson of the Ministry of Industry stated: To achieve this goal, the bottlenecks in the supply chain must be removed, but in order to increase production in the first half of the year, car manufacturers must increase their activity. For example, the production of Iran Khodro should grow by about 60% by the end of the year, which means that there should be a jump in production in Iran Khodro. Of course, the Ministry of Privacy provides the necessary support to car manufacturers, but the main issue is the industry itself, which must create production growth.
