First appeared in the latest car

Recently, we received information indicating that a company is planning to assemble Walling Starlight S in Iran; A project that, according to some previous rumors and news, is likely to be related to Nik Azin Motor.

In the last few weeks, in an exclusive article, we announced the plan to import the products of two brands, Wooling and Baojun, by a start-up company called Nik Azin Motor; A collection that has introduced itself as the exclusive representative of SGMW Group in Iran. This automobile group, which operates in the form of a Chinese-American joint venture, is one of the groups that cooperation with in the country's harsh sanctions and war conditions raises questions about how such a contract is formed and implemented. Of course, by reviewing the contracts of some Iranian companies with foreign car manufacturers in recent years, it can be assumed that Nik Azin Motor has signed a contract with one of the regional representatives of this group instead of working directly with the main group of SGMW; This issue, if true, can still be considered as an important step in the way of entering Wooling and Baojun products into the Iranian market.

According to Nik Azin Motor's claim about the exclusive agency of this group, as well as some rumors that the import conditions have become more difficult for the companies that previously followed the program of supplying Voling and Baojun products, in recent months, rumors have been raised about the possibility of assembling the products of these two brands in Iran. Now, new information has been received by the correspondent of the Last Khoro media, which shows that a company is planning to import Walling Starlight S parts in the form of SKD and assemble this crossover in Iran.

In the current situation, it is not possible to introduce Nik Azin Motor as the executor of the Walling Starlight S assembly plan with certainty; However, considering the announced plans of this company to operate in the field of Wooling and Baojun products, as well as the rumors that were heard before about the possibility of assembling the products of these two brands, the possibility of the connection of this collection with the mentioned project cannot be ignored.

Finally, we have to wait and see what information will be released about this project and is Nik Azin Motor the same company that is following the Walling Starlight S assembly program?! On the other hand, the country's war conditions and the resulting restrictions can also affect the implementation process of such projects; Therefore, until the release of official information from the related companies, it is not possible to make a definite opinion about the identity of the operator and the start of assembly of this crossover in Iran.

Voling Starlight S is a family crossover of SGMW automotive group products, which is produced and supplied with two types of plug-in hybrid and all-electric powertrains.
