BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 5. Passenger car production in Iran saw a modest increase of 1.7 percent in the first month of the current Iranian year (from March 21 through April 20, 2025), compared to the same period the previous year (from March 20 through April 19, 2024).
Data obtained by Trend from a report published by Codal.ir, a comprehensive database under Iran's Securities and Exchange Organization, shows that Iran’s three main automakers — Iran Khodro (IKCO), SAIPA, and Pars Khodro — produced a combined total of 46,703 passenger vehicles during the period. This marks a small rise from the 45,916 units produced during the same month last year.
However, despite this short-term growth, the total passenger car output for the previous Iranian year (from March 20, 2024, through March 20, 2025) declined by 1 percent year-on-year. The three manufacturers produced 969,450 units, down from 979,500 units in the year before that.
