When will the mass production of all-Iranian electric cars in Kerman Motor begin?

Khodrocar - Saman Firouzi explained about Kerman Motor's latest achievements and actions in the field of electric vehicles: "Kerman Motor Company is moving forward in two directions in the field of electric vehicles. The first path is the production of an all-Iranian electric car. We started the production of local electric vehicles in 1400 in cooperation with Mapna. Actually, before the speed and acceleration of the wave of using electric cars, according to the needs of the country and observing the trends of the world's automotive industry, Kerman Motor started moving towards these cars. Currently, according to the plans, 8 units of this car will be tested in September, and after passing the necessary tests, mass production of local electric cars will start from January. »

He continued: "In the second phase, we started our cooperation for CKD assembly with a foreign party. From June 21, the first series of these cars were delivered to Tehran's public transportation and taxi fleet. In the first phase, 1,000 vehicles will be delivered, but we plan to deliver a total of 4,000 vehicles to the country's public transportation fleet by the end of the year."

The CEO of Kerman Motor also said about the growth of production in this company: "Last year, Kerman Motor managed to produce 72 thousand cars. Of these, about 14,000 were pickup trucks and about 58,000 passenger cars. We were able to experience significant growth both in the production of pickups and in the production of rides.”

Firozi continued: "The production of 125,000 cars is predicted for this year as well. In order to realize and achieve this goal, the necessary planning has been done and the necessary resources have been provided with the cooperation of the Ministry of Industry.”

He added: "The important point is that Kerman Motor promotes the production of passenger cars in two areas. The first area is the production of local-national passenger cars. By designing and building the research and development unit, Kerman Motor has created a center where more than 300 personnel are working today. In this unit, we are moving towards domestic automobile manufacturing. According to the schedule of January, 50 cars 100% designed and developed by Kerman Motor will be delivered.”

The CEO of Kerman Motor also stated about Kerman Motor's plan to become the most valuable car manufacturer in the Middle East: "As previously announced, Kerman Motor plans to become the most valuable car manufacturer in the Middle East by 1405. In these years, despite all the challenges, problems and problems that exist, the movement has not stopped, so that by the end of 1402, we have been able to achieve 60% of this goal. We will definitely reach this goal by 1405. According to Kerman Motor's research, the market value of the most valuable car manufacturer in the Middle East is two billion dollars, which Kerman Motor rejects.”
