Reporting "Asre Khodro", According to a local automotive website, Persian Khodro, the line is set to produce more than ۳۰,۰۰۰ units in the fiscal year that begins on March ۲۱.
The car’s body is produced locally by one of the subsidiaries of IKCO, called TAM which makes the vehicle meet the bare minimum of ۳۰% localization need.
The price for the new car is estimated to be ۷۷۰ million (€۱۸,۷۸۰), according to an earlier report by the local technology site Zoomit.
On Time
The announcement of the vehicle comes only two weeks after a picture was released on IKCO’s Telegram account showing the first ۲۰۰۸ model rolling off the line in a test production.
Earlier in ۲۰۱۶, IKCO chief Hashem Yekezare said Peugeot would begin production of the new SUV by March.
In February in a confirmation of the date, Jean Philippe Imparato of Peugeot said that production of the Peugeot ۲۰۰۸ “would start before the coming Persian New Year.” He was speaking at a conference on Iran’s automotive future.
Family- Friendly
The Peugeot ۲۰۰۸ is a compact SUV that will have to take on strong competition in the form of the Renault Captur, Kia Soul and Nissan Juke. All of these front-wheel drive cars offer an SUV-like stance, urban-appropriate supermini dimensions, and low running and purchase costs.
The ۲۰۰۸ is a family-friendly SUV, a tall, ۲۰۸ supermini-based, a four-meter-long entrant into an increasingly saturated market.
Like most of its rivals, it is typically a straightforward piece of engineering. While considerably more meat has been added, the platform beneath the taller car is the same as the one that underpins the ۲۰۸. Overall the ۲۰۰۸ might be a heavier car, but it is more practical than the supermini on which it is based.
Shockingly, the vehicle only has a ۱.۲ liter engine inside which gets ۱۱۰ horsepower, however, according to reports from Europe, the car has enough power to pull it through the Tehran traffic with its automatic gearbox.
Accordingly, the car gets a combined fuel cycle of ۴.۸ liters per ۱۰۰ km, official statistics state.
Britain’s WhatCar magazine states the car does a good job through the urban sprawl, with its light steering controls.
Future Models
Other cars to be produced by the company in the next few months include the Peugeot ۲۰۸ which is priced at ۶۸۰ million (€۱۷,۰۰۰) and the Peugeot ۳۰۱ which will cost ۵۸۰ million (€۱۴,۵۰۰).
The Peugeot ۲۰۸ model is hotly anticipated to take over from the current ۲۰۶ model, which has been produced in Iran for over a decade.
During the sanctions years, most Peugeot ۲۰۶ parts were supplied by Iranian and Chinese automakers and the model is to remain in production for the foreseeable future due to the price difference.
