When did the 1966 #Hillman Hunter (#Rootes Arrow) finally die? #IKCO kept its drivetrain alive under the Arisun pick-up till 2022, since every mechanic in Iran cut their teeth on localized Hunter, the #Paykan. That year, the Arisun finally switched over to the regular FWD #Peugeot 405 platform. #WeirdCarMastodon #PSA

Added Iran’s newest car, the #IKCO Reera, to #Autocade. Not that easy since IKCO has blocked its website to certain countries, including New Zealand, and we don’t rely on Wikipedia since that would make our info second-hand.
