Modernisation of Iranian Car Industry In Full Swing

August 2006 | Product Launch

The production of the latest version of Iran Khodro's flagship "world car", the Samand, has rolled off the production line this month. The company claims that the new car is compliant with Euro III emissions standards. This is a breakthrough for the Iranian car sector, which earned a bad reputation in the past for manufacturing vehicles that were unsafe and polluting. Iran Khodro has managed to cut the car's fuel consumption, raised its performance and reduced its exhaust pollutants. The company also claims to have improved the engine's power output.
