The Saipa company announced its intention to enter the empty Russian market last year, but the matter did not go beyond the official website. Why? And when will
Iranians were very surprised when they heard about Saipa’s official Russian-language website. And they explained that it was launched by Best Motors company, which, while calling itself an official distributor, is not yet. For example, negotiations are still ongoing and no agreements have yet been reached. They hope to solve all the problems in 2024 – then both a representative and the first dealers will appear.
What models will Saipa offer the Russians? First, the Shahin sedan, presented last year at the international exhibition MIMS Automobility Moscow. Second, the Quik hatchback was presented at MIMS-2023. These cars are positioned as budget cars, but representatives of the brand cannot even say the approximate cost yet. Much will depend on the market situation and, of course, on the exchange rate.
While Saipa (by the way, the name of the brand is correctly pronounced “Saipa” with an emphasis on the last syllable) is generally far behind its compatriots from Iran, Khodro. They, as the AvtoVzglyad portal previously wrote, are already selling Tara sedans and are also preparing three more models for the Russian premiere. Which one, you can find out here.
