Where will the empire of assembly cars reach with the import of used goods?

Khodrocar - In his latest statements, Lotfollah Siahkoli, a member of the Parliament's Industries Commission, announced the implementation of the plan to import foreign cars under 5 years of operation from the next two weeks and stated that from this time on, the import of these cars will take on a serious implementation process. . According to him, there is no limit on the size of the engine in the import of foreign used cars and there is no limit on the amount of import of these cars by natural and legal persons.

This news is that since March of last year and at the same time as the forecast in this field in the additional budget bill 1402, the car market reacted to this issue, so that despite the approaching end of the year and the boom of the Shab Eid car market, the price It fell in the market.

The downward slope of the prices in the car market continued even after the Eid holiday until the market faced a heavy recession. In this situation, the entry of the Competition Council into the issue of the pricing of assembled cars was also the reason, besides the pre-registration of the cars. The import, which was made with the amount of 500 million Tomans, has led to the worsening of the recession and the decline of prices in the car market.

In the meantime, the news of signing contracts with importers for the entry of new Chinese, Japanese, and even European cars fueled further price reductions, which of course affected the prices of domestic cars as well as assembly.

Examining the price trend of imported and assembled cars showed a decrease, although the prices of imported cars are still significantly different from the prices of previous years, but it cannot be different from the drop of 100 to 400 million tomans of these cars.

Rashidi Kochi, a member of the country's internal affairs and councils commission in the parliament, who has the most opinions about cars, emphasized a while ago that now the foreign cars that entered the country have a price difference of more than 10 times with similar foreign models and are more expensive. This means that the price of these cars is 1000% more expensive in our country, and we will definitely see a decrease in prices in the market with the start of importing new and used cars.

After these statements, it was thought that the trend of falling prices in the market continued, so that more imported and assembled cars experienced a decrease in prices, until we saw a price drop of 50 million to 500 million tomans in these cars.

Undoubtedly, with the implementation of the import of used cars and the lack of restrictions on the size of the engine, we will increase the variety in imports, and this will have a significant impact on the market, which has experienced many restrictions since 2017 and has lost the latest cars due to the ban on imports. .

In these years, due to the restrictions on access to all types of cars, the assemblers were able to create a good market for themselves, and since these cars are mainly Chinese and had a not very large market before the import ban, they were able to With the import of the latest models, the car market will be thirsty

In the meantime, the consumers who were looking for modern cars were forced to buy these cars even with the prices of billions, and now with the lifting of the ban on imports, especially the import of used cars, the market acceptance of these cars has decreased to the point where the price of some cars in The market has reached lower than the factory price, which happened in recent years and during the peak of domestic production.

It remains to be seen how the market will react to the arrival of the first shipment of second-hand imported cars, although there is no doubt that buying these cars will also have its problems.
