From synchronization to deviation in car prices.
Car price review for the year; Why is the gap between factory and market rates increasing again?
"Economic World":
Examining the price trend of 6 main products of Iran Khudro and Seifa from October 1404 to October 1405 shows that the market price of many products moved in sync with the increase in factory prices until August of this year and the gap between the two prices was limited at times.
However, since August and at the same time as the exchange rate peaked and car manufacturers' production fell by about 32% in the first seven months of the year, the free market changed its course and greatly increased the distance from the factory price.
For example, the market price of Peugeot 207 and Tara Automat, which were in relative agreement with the factory price in the previous months, reached about 4 billion tomans in October, while their factory price was recorded at 2.2 and 2.4 billion tomans respectively.
This upward trend is also observed in Shaheen Automatic and Soren Plus.
Although the factory price has increased in certain periods, external variables such as the exchange rate, inflationary expectations and reduced supply have played a decisive role in the price surge in the market in recent months.
Following these conditions, the car manufacturers once again asked to change and raise the factory price of their products, referring to the increase in production costs and raw materials.
