The entry of 6 car manufacturers of the country into the production of electric cars

6 prominent car manufacturers of the country have decided to produce electric cars. 2 prominent car manufacturers of the country are also present. In the following, we will examine the details.

According to the latest automobile news, according to the Deputy Minister of Transport Industries of the Ministry of Industry regarding electric vehicles, 6 automobile manufacturers of the country, including 2 prominent automobile manufacturers and 4 automobile manufacturers in the form of private sector, in the agreement signed with China, in cooperation with Chinese companies, automobiles produce electricity in Iran.

Regarding this 25-year strategic plan, Manouchehr Lagi said that we are not the only country that goes to China for a cooperation agreement regarding the production of electric cars; But there are also different countries that want to produce electric cars in cooperation with China. He considers this situation of China because of the new and advanced technologies that they have at their disposal.

The multi-stage program of the Ministry of Security regarding the production of electric cars

The Deputy Minister of Transportation Industries of the Ministry of Security explained that in order to create a competitive market for electric vehicles, the Ministry of Security has developed a plan that will be implemented in two stages. In the first stage, the Ministry of Defense is obliged to design programs for the proper use of electric vehicles and to take advantage of their advantages, such as reducing air pollution and fuel consumption in the country. One of the programs of the first phase of this plan is to prepare the necessary infrastructure for the use of electric cars in the country so that we can get the most efficiency from electric cars.

He further explained about electric cars that these cars are automatic and smart cars that require great accuracy in their control due to their high acceleration. In this regard, Manouchehr Lagi pointed to a program in which public information and education about electric cars will be done first. Also, at this stage, a number of drivers will be given training for these cars and information that must be checked, such as the battery charge status and the car's operating status, on a trial basis.

Logic also mentioned the issue of supporting these cars and explained that this issue is very important. A person who prepares and uses an electric car must be supported by the company in question. In this case, he mentioned 3 programs; The first plan is to identify the necessary parts and spare parts for these cars so that we can properly support the owners of these cars. In this regard, we have chosen 2 centers that have taken the responsibility of identifying these materials and parts.

In the explanation of the second program, Raghi said that for this stage, we intend to create a network of agencies under the title of smart agencies. In this regard, the necessary negotiations have been conducted with car manufacturers and we are going to create this network by introducing the best dealers and after-sales dealers. Also, during the conversation with the car manufacturers, they will equip the experts and the necessary materials and resources to create an after-sales agency for electric cars so that this after-sales agency exists not only in Tehran, but also in other cities.

Regarding the supply and support of spare parts for electric cars, he mentioned about one thousand knowledge-based companies that have announced their readiness to supply spare parts and accessories used in these cars. These companies are going to produce spare parts for electric cars in a high volume.

The vice president of transportation industries of the Ministry of Industry also explained the third stage of this program, in which electric cars or their parts are produced in a microelectronics town. This town will be established through the cooperation of the Vice President's Office of Science and the Organization of Industrial Towns of the Ministry of Security and a large university. The purpose of opening this town is to produce microchips, parts and electric motors for these cars, and different types of sensors for electric cars are produced inside the country in order to gradually reduce our dependence on other countries. Also, by increasing and expanding such settlements, we can have electric cars with advanced and modern technology.

The future of making electric vehicle batteries in the country

Manouchehr Rogi also explained about the lithium batteries of electric cars. He mentioned lithium batteries as the most important issue in the discussion of electric cars and said that Mapna company is currently producing these special batteries in cooperation with a factory. He also stated about the development plan of these batteries that the expansion of these batteries should be done quickly so that every car manufacturer that produces electric cars can also produce the lithium battery needed for its product. Battery recovery is one of the most important issues in this field, if it is done and implemented, it will greatly help the economic aspect of these cars. He mentioned the most important challenge of recovering these batteries as its very complex processes and software issues involved.

The Deputy Minister of Transportation Industries of the Ministry of Security spoke about the development of a standard for electric vehicles and considered its implementation as dependent on the construction of advanced laboratories and then relevant test networks. The issue of developing and implementing standards for electric cars is one of the most important and necessary things that must be done before the final production of these cars.

In response to the criticisms of the ministry regarding the signing of a cooperation agreement with China to manufacture electric vehicles, the vice-president of transportation industries of the Ministry of Industry said that the world's major automobile companies also turn to Chinese companies to take advantage of the advanced and up-to-date Chinese technology in electric vehicles. they do. This official of the Ministry of Security gave the example of the German Volkswagen company, which had entered into a memorandum of understanding with Chinese companies to design a lithium battery production line and create a large and advanced factory for the production of these batteries.

Joint Research Center

Manouchehr Rogi explained about the strategic performance of car manufacturers and parts supply companies and said that each supplier company should make 50% of the parts needed by car manufacturers. If the domestic companies cannot handle this task, a joint research center should be established by the domestic automaker and the foreign parts supplier company. In this regard, one of the domestic companies has created such a center in cooperation with the private company of the other party, where about 100 people are working in this center, and the managers of this center have announced the increase of work capacity up to 1000 people. It should also be mentioned that all the costs of this center, from the creation to the workers' salaries, are paid by the foreign component manufacturing company.

He expressed hope that the follow-up of this 25-year strategic plan by the first vice president, who has also visited China, will be done more quickly.

Addressing people who think that in this plan, Iranian car manufacturers will only have the role of support or assembler, he answered that we have started this function through a joint program with China and the intention is to industrialize and then make this product competitive to increase We have the number and quality in the country.

The deputy of transportation industries of the Ministry of Industry mentioned 3 advantages of electric cars; First, Iran has professional experts in the field of telecommunications and intelligence.
