The groundbreaking debut of Afghanistan's first sports car, "Mada 9," marks a significant milestone in the automotive industry. The journey of this innovative creation from the province of Nimroz to Qatar's borders, and its subsequent appearance at the Geneva International Motor Show, holds a tale of determination, bureaucratic hurdles, and timely assistance.
The creator and director of Entop, Mohammad Reza Ahmadi, captured the momentous event on video as the Mada 9 crossed the Iranian border. This moment symbolized the first step of its journey to the Geneva International Motor Show, scheduled to take place in Doha on October 5th. The vehicle's arrival at the show is facilitated by transportation through Iranian ports, Sputnik Afghanistan reported on August 28.
Ahmadi's ambitious project faced an unexpected challenge when he discovered a legal regulation that initially prohibited the export of cars from Afghanistan. The revelation of this bureaucratic inconsistency posed a potential setback for the visionary project. However, subsequent developments indicate that the issue was addressed and resolved, paving the way for the car's export.
While the report mentions "bureaucratic inconsistency by the Taliban," it's not entirely clear how the Taliban were involved in resolving the issue. The report doesn't provide specific details regarding this aspect.
Ahmadi's gamble to showcase the Mada 9 at the Geneva International Motor Show in Doha was not without challenges. Initially facing financial constraints that could have jeopardized his participation, Ahmadi's determination pushed him to seek solutions. The turning point came when he received unexpected support from well-wishers who contributed $100,000, enabling him to continue his journey to the exhibition.
The Doha exhibition holds immense potential for Ahmadi, as he aims to secure permanent investors for his groundbreaking project. The platform provided by the Geneva International Motor Show offers the perfect opportunity to showcase the Mada 9's innovation, performance, and design, and attract investors who share Ahmadi's vision for the future of Afghan automotive manufacturing.
