History

In 1999 Iran Khodro Company merged its bus and midi-bus production lines with Khawar Industrial Group truck production lines together and the new company Iran Khodro Diesel, public joint stock was born to manufacture different types of commercial vehicles for domestic and overseas markets.
Today, Iran Khodro Diesel has a wide production site of 600,000 square metres (6,500,000 sq ft).
