Morattab

1957 – present — Iran

Morattab

Morattab, an established SUV manufacturer from Tehran, Iran, traces its origins back to 1957. Initially an agency and distributor of commercial vehicles, Morattab shifted its focus in 1962 to manufacturing vehicles, notably producing versions of the Series Land Rover under license from Rover of England. This pivotal move marked the beginning of Morattab's long-standing association with rugged terrain vehicles. Following the 1979 Iranian Revolution, Morattab experienced a significant transformation. The company was nationalized, leading to changes in ownership and management as it fell under the government's control. Despite these challenges, Morattab continued to produce vehicles, including unlicensed versions of the Land Rover after the original licensing agreement lapsed. In more recent developments, Morattab has adapted its lineup to include the Morattab Series IV, inspired by the Santana Motor models from Spain. These vehicles incorporate modifications such as parabolic leaf springs, one-piece windshields, and fully fitted interiors, powered by a locally built 1.8-litre four-cylinder Nissan-derived petrol engine. This model represents Morattab's commitment to blending traditional rugged features with modern automotive technologies. Today, Morattab remains a significant player in the Iranian automotive industry, continuing its legacy of producing durable and adapted vehicles suitable for the challenging terrains of Iran and beyond. The company's journey from a local distributor to a manufacturer of iconic and enduring vehicles underscores its resilience and innovation in the face of political and economic upheavals
