Now Russian dealers offer the Iranian Peugeot 207i under the “gray” scheme, but soon budget hatchbacks will arrive through the “official” channel, which will provide buyers with at least a full-fledged manufacturer’s warranty. As the representative of Iran Khodro told the AvtoVzglyad portal, the five-door is already being certified.
It may seem surprising, but despite all the sanctions, the “official” Peugeot 207i from Iran will be sold in Russia under the French brand. And yes, an agreement has been reached with the creators of the “original” hatchback export to the domestic market. “No problem: we have a cooperation agreement with the French and we have been working together for more than 30 years,” Iran Khodro said on the AvtoVzglyad portal.
Our interlocutor emphasized that the model is already being certified, but he did not even mention the estimated dates for completing all the necessary procedures and starting sales in Russia: “I don’t think it will take much time.”
In addition, we asked whether Iran Khodro plans to bring other Peugeots to the domestic market. The answer is “not yet”.
Recall that the “gray” sale of the Peugeot 207i recently started in Russia. The hatchback is equipped with a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine with a capacity of 105 hp. Of. and automatic transmission. The list of options is not bad: multiple airbags, heated front seats, rear parking sensors with camera, multimedia system, cruise control. And a very attractive price – 1.5 million rubles. That’s just with warranty, problems may arise, because it is given by the dealer.
