The exact date of the release of this car to the transport fleet is not known; But an importa poi is the lack of sufficie infrastructure for the use of these cars in the coury, the most importa of which is the lack of special charging stations for all-electric cars. Other factors that make it difficult to use these cars in Iran include the high cost of maiaining all-electric cars, the short life of the batteries, and the lack of existing infrastructure for repairing and replacing the batteries of these cars.
As long as all the infrastructure needed to use these cars is not created in the coury, importing a limited number of these cars and creating an advertising show will lead to a big failure for Iranian car manufacturers; Because before using these cars, we have to think about replacing them.
