The Saipa Pride is still the best-selling car in Iran by a very large margin with 47,261 sales: compare that with the 54,410 Ford F-Series sold in the US during the same month and you’ll have a better idea of how massive that figure is! The Peugeot 405 is still very valiant in spite of its 24 years of age, selling 16,808 units in September – to be compared with the 6,427 Peugeot 207 sold in France during the same period.

Peugeot places 2 models on the podium with the 206 at 15,557 units, up 44% on August, followed by the Iran Khodro Samand at 12,437 units. The Renault Tondar 90 (aka Logan) is still 4th but up 31% on last month at 8,586 sales. The Saipa Tiba at 2,941 units and the Peugeot 207i at 1,463 sales are still quite low but in significant increase: respectively 30% and 178% on August…
