98% of its capacity in two shifts in the current year in 1401 (started March 21, 2022).If a proper policy had been adopted for SAIPA from
the beginning of policymaking, it could have produced 2,700 vehicles in three working shifts, he underlined.The CEO of SAIPA Automotive
Group Company emphasized that according to 8-article order of the President, increasing production was one of his demands and this important
issue required provision of liquidity while the Monetary and Credit Council (MCC), contrary to the past several years, did not provide any
facilities for automakers.If liquidity had been allocated to car manufacturers, increase in production of car would have done better and
Tiba and Samand cars have been introduced as unsafe cars by the Iranian Standard Organization (ISIRI)
These cars have been equipped with standards and the main problem in the cars produced in 1399 (2020) dates back to the time that no
standards had been defined for these cars and now these cars are operating and transiting in the country, so that serious decisions must be
taken to collect the worn-out and old cars.Following the order of Iranian President Raeisi on eight articles regarding transparency and
increasing public satisfaction and the emphasis of the Minister of Mining Industry and Trade, Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade embarked
on establishing an integrated car allocation system in the beginning of the current year in 1401 (started March 21, 2022) he said, adding,
