AvtoVAZ head Maxim Sokolov stated that he sees potential in developing the localization of Lada cars in Iran and expects a dealership to open soon in that country.
In principle, in Iran it is necessary to make a project for localization, for the assembly of our cars. This will provide certain competitive advantages. Therefore, we are placing a big bet on the Iranian direction and expect that our dealership will open there soon.
Sokolov noted that the potential partner is interested in the company's entire product line, including the new Lada Iskra model.
In April, AvtoVAZ began mass production of Lada Iskra, with sales starting on July 20 of this year. The auto giant's production capacity allows it to produce up to 150,000 Lada Iskra per year.
