Given the public dissatisfaction with the quality of domestic cars, an automotive expert has outlined two strategies in case international sanctions are removed or stay put.
Siamak Moqtaderi also told Donyaye Khodro in an interview: “If we reach an agreement [over the Iran nuclear deal], we should expedite cooperation with all car manufacturers and technology companies. But if there is no agreement, we should select cars that suit people's needs and start production in cooperation with domestic parts manufacturers.”
Moqtaderi noted that if the sanctions continue, reverse engineering should increase, especially in the component manufacturing sector, so that the production of old cars is discontinued. He stressed that reverse engineering is the best option at present for Iran’s automobile industry.
In the past, policymakers announced numerous automotive plans that were either not implemented or abandoned halfway due to economic conditions.
