Selling all automakers’ products at a loss / not opening the airbags of domestic cars is a lie!
According to Tejarat News, Mostafa Aghamirsalim, a representative of the people of Tehran in the Islamic Consultative Assembly, referring to the government’s decision on car imports, said: “Importing 70-80 thousand cars does not affect the price of cars, but only a company will be built along with other companies such as Kerman Khodro.” .
He added: “We need to import nearly 1 million cars to adjust the price of domestic cars, but if we try to import this number of cars, how do we want to answer domestic carmakers and engineers and workers;” One of the reasons for the poor quality of domestic cars is the sanctions situation in the country, in which we depend on foreign parts in many parts. Of course, many car parts are made in the country, but the production of some parts is not economically justified.
Not opening the Eberg of domestic cars is a lie!
Myerslim in response to the non-opening claim Airbag Domestic cars in road accidents stated: This claim is not true at all and some people claim not to open Airbag They are the cars, they are to blame for these accidents.
Traffic police on foggy roads do not block the passage of vehicles and then claim that the airbags do not open. Even if the car airbags do not open, it is a technical defect that needs to be fixed. Do not open Airbag 100 cars out of 900,000 cars produced is a statistically insignificant.
He added: “Of course, I do not mean that these weaknesses should not be eliminated, because even the technical defects in 100 cars are high, but the technical defects of domestic cars should not be an excuse for imports.” The technical problems of the car can be solved on its own, and technical colleges and universities can solve these problems. If the experts in this field destroy, they will definitely migrate abroad and work in big companies such as Benz and Volkswagen.
Automotive factories are at a loss
Referring to the financial issues of the automotive industry, the representative of the people of Tehran in the Islamic Consultative Assembly said: “Most automobile factories are losing money because the cost of their products is higher than the selling price and they must borrow from the bank.”
Also, after taking a loan, they have to pay 20 to 25 percent of the loan interest, with which they have no choice but to increase the price of their products. At present, the country’s automobile industry is close to 200,000 billion tomans.
Myerslim said that the high price of cars has nothing to do with car manufacturers: the current high price of cars is due to problems in the distribution system and the presence of intermediaries; That is why the government must reform the car distribution system. Automotive factories sell all their products at a loss in the market; For example, the price of Peugeot 206 in the factory is 160 million Tomans, which is sold in the market, over 300 million Tomans; But it is not clear who will get the difference in this price.
No one can criticize the car industry as much as I do
Myerslim continued: I have been in the automotive industry for almost 50 years and no one can criticize this field as much as I do; As if I have done the most criticism in the field of automobile manufacturing, but I disagree with people who deceive the importers. We currently have 14 importer families in the country who have a dealership and import cars; Those are cars that do not benefit the masses at all, but benefit the rich and the wealthy.
A member of the Article 90 Commission of the Islamic Consultative Assembly stated that importing a car worth $ 5,000 is impossible: At a price of $ 5,000, we can only import low-quality cars from countries like India. Iran is the only country in the world. The price of a car increases by about 80 to 90% after leaving the factory, because people do not buy a car for need, but look at the car as a capital good.
We have no shortage in car production
Myerslim added: “The increase in car prices is not due to a shortage in production; Last year, we produced about 850,000 cars, which was even more than the country needed. In Tehran, for example, there is 6 times more capacity than a car; But because people’s capital is melting, people are investing their money in cars, and so car prices are rising day by day.
The representative of the people of Tehran in the Islamic Consultative Assembly, emphasizing that in order to analyze the problems of the automotive industry, we must first examine the country’s macro-economy, added: The issue of car manufacturing should also be considered in its place.
In the automotive industry, technical, managerial and financial issues are of great importance, in the meantime, the location of technical issues is easier than the rest. Engineers and workers can solve the technical problems of cars, and if we do not despise them, they can do their job properly.
Domestic cars have embarrassed foreign automakers
A member of the Expediency Discernment Council said: “The production of domestic cars has been built during these years, which has embarrassed foreign carmakers and importers.”
Samand, Rana, Dana and Tara were among the very good cars that were produced during these years, and about 60,000 of these cars are exported abroad.
The country’s automobile industry has been developing over the past years, and importers are constantly kicking the industry to make progress. They magnify a few weaknesses against the car industry.
