Don't tell me you are serious.. If that is the quality of suzuki cars in pak, then they sure are robbing you guys..
 
I think that you guys are overestimating these cars and the Iranian automotive industry in general.

In the first three months of this year Iranian vehicle imports from Turkey rose by 60% after easing of sanctions. The increase is even more in March (approximately 155 %).

Motor vehicle production is different from cars production.

In 2015 we produced 884 k cars and you produced 791 k.

No, Iranians don't prefer foreign brands. Rich Iranians who have ultra money buy foreign cars.

Anyway it's stupidity of our government that we import foreign cars and waste our money. We should help our own industry. We have one of the biggest and oldest automotive industries in the world and we are producing cars since 60's. Importing cars from abroad will harm our industry and destroys jobs in Iran.

Anyway I don't know why you always bring your country in Iranian threads and try to compare or troll.
Ok we import cars from our neighbors Turkey and Uae.

You said Iranians prefer foreign cars which is wrong and tried to say Iranians prefer foreign cars because Iranians produce low quality cars...

Your trolling doesn't work since we export cars to many countries including Russia, Ukraine and Belarus if we produced low quality cars we couldn't export.

My uncle bought an Iranian made peugeot 206 15 years ago and it still works better than clock. It's still like its day one after 15 years. Also I believe Samand is one of the best sedan cars in the world.

We have already had discussions about turk, Iranian rivalry in this thread:

I'm not trolling. I'm telling the truth.

The Iranian Ministry of Industry has approved the importation of vehicles manufactured by General Motors’ European subsidiary, Opel.

Iran said on Sunday that it has issued the authorization for imports of automobiles produced by the American carmaker Chevrolet.
http://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2016/01/10/445271/Iran-approves-imports-of-Chevrolets/

Car imports have risen, from $184 million in 2002 to $1.5 billion in 2007.[36] In 2006, the government lowered the automotive import tariff levels to 90 percent for light weight vehicles and since then a huge influx of imported vehicles has been witnessed in the country.[26] The tariff level for import of heavy vehicles is even lower at 20 percent, due to low levels of local production and high demand. As a result, a variety of automotive brands are being presently imported into Iran including Toyota, BMW, Mercedes Benz (these three being the expensive and/or luxury brands), Rover, Ssangyong, Audi, Subaru, Volkswagen, Renault Leon, Altea variety of heavy vehicles, construction and mining equipment from leading manufacturers such as Mercedes Benz, Renault, Iveco, Mann, Kamaz, Caterpillar.[26]

Don't be mad at me, be mad at your goverment. You guys are simply killing your own industry. That's what I'm trying to show you. As a matter of fact, Iranians prefer foreign brands. Have a nice day.

Iran doesn't import any cars from Turkey. Actually if you care to do a little research you'd know that samand sold a fortune in Turkey.

Just some years ago we produced ~2 mil. Vehicles per year which was reduced due to sanctions as apparent in your table. In a 2 year period we'll surpass our previous high since many MOUs are signed with world leading companies like Renault and Mercedes

Safer with Big tyres and a few other stuff would make an awesome
Off-roader !

Is it available to civilians ? At what price? Maybe one can buy it and take it to Pakistan.
Unfortunately its not for sale on the market. I've heard of people owning them but of course they're agha-zadeh (with links to special organization) and not normal people

I see that you love off road cars :D
