Hyundai Motor Group aims to develop a stronger presence in Iran’s auto market, said an Iranian motor company official.

Hyundai, as a first step, intends to increase satisfaction among its Iranian customers and market its products in the country based on a more appropriate system of supply and demand, Saman Firouzi, managing director of Kerman Motor Company, was quoted as saying in an Iran Daily News report, citing Irna.

He said that Kerman Motor Company, a producer of some models of Hyundai cars, will continue its cooperation with the Chinese automotive companies as well.

Firouzi added that the support given to the Islamic Republic by Chinese companies during the Western-imposed sanctions against Iran will not be forgotten.
