According to Ehsan Arkani, the director of the event, 150 automakers and auto parts manufacturers from Iran and other countries are attending, local auto website Asbe Bokhar reported.

“More than 60 representatives of producers of vehicles, motor oil, engine parts, tires and electric parts from different countries, including Japan, South Korea, China, Turkey, Germany, France, Italy and Poland, are present at the event,” Financial Tribune quoted him as saying.

Local carmakers also unveiled a new model at the event, including one locally assembled Chinese model.

The company introduced FAW’s entry-level Besturn B30 sedan produced in collaboration with Iran’s Crouse Group. The model, which was initially produced by Chinese carmaker FAW under the name Besturn, comes after a fairly successful experience of selling Besturn B50 in the local market.
