Fuel economy for the 3 main Japanese entry level sedans (liters per 100 kms):
Mazada 3: 5.8
Corolla: 6.2
Civic: 6.6
TOYOTA CANADA: Language
And Dena: 7.2 (which I don't believe b/c I can't find an independent test). But even this 7.2 is higher.
Now to say Dena is comparable to the other 3 in terms of equipment is fucking laughable. Dena doesn't even have side airbags as standard equipment (optional). It literally has seat belts, radio, CD player and that's it. Does it have Bluetooth? Live navigation? AUX jacks around the car? USB slots? Speed sensitive volume? Electric power assist steering (Dena has old hydraulic shitty steering)? Alloy wheels (no it doesn't)? Modern suspension and transmission (loool HELLL NO! Dena doesn't even have an automatic option!!!!!)?
Now let's get to safety.The Japanese models have driver side, passenger side, passenger front, driver and passenger overhead and seat mounted airbags. Dena has inferior quality front airbags, that's IT.
I left out half a million other things that Dena doesn't even have as extra options.
Better handling??!?!?!?!??!?!?! WTF! Literally EVERY part in Dena is inferior quality. It doesn't have better handling. Don't bull shit us.
More power? Standard Dena has 113 hp. Standard models of Mazda 3, Corolla and Civic have 155, 132 and 143 horsepower respectively.
The warranty on the 3 Japanese models is superior as well (means better quality).
Corolla 2015 model:
Corolla L: 28/37 (8.16 / 6.17 Litters): Minimum price for this model is $18234 + 825 (Toyota delivery fee which is separate from dealership fees) = $19050 ( 65.7 Million Iranian Tomans), Let us imagine there is ZERO tarrif or TAX.
Corolla LE Premium: 29/38 (7.88 / 6.1 Litters/100km): Minimum price for this model is $23309 + 825= $24134 ( 83 Million Tomans).
Note 1: Actual MPGs may vary (means higher).

Dena ELX Turbo: 150 hp / 215 Torque/ All standard items on EF7 model + Hybrid turbo charged engine + Standard curtain airbags+ Electric Assisted Steering + some other decorative items....
Price for Dena is only 42 Million Tomans or $12000!!!!
Does it have Bluetooth? Live navigation? AUX jacks around the car? USB slots? Speed sensitive volume? Electric power assist steering (Dena has old hydraulic shitty steering)? Alloy wheels (no it doesn't)? Modern suspension and transmission (loool HELLL NO! Dena doesn't even have an automatic option!!!!!)?
yes it has. Bluetooth + live navigation in Farsi and English + Aux jacks + USB 2 Slots + Electric Power assist Steering on its ELX model + Aluminum Alloy 15 Inch wheels, It has Manual transmission but they promised for an Auto Trans soon...Let aside the fact that Manual Transmission has its own advantages over auto... even old SAMAND LX has Alloy Aluminum wheels!!
Better Handling is something very famous and known for Samand based cars. Those who tested it professionally noticed that it has a very nice handling and even better stability on curves...
I am not going to argue that Dena is better than Japanese cars... Japs are very good with building cars.... I once heard an American friend saying in response to a question about if European cars are better than American ones... he said, American cars are always better than any other cars because simply it is American and we are American....
This applies to me too... Whatever Iranian cars are for me it is the best car and I always use it proud...
I have two unsolved issues with guys like you...
1- Why you are so Impolite and bi tarbyat? You know this explains a lot of bad experiences from your childhood... Nobody seems better by swearing or claiming to be cool and I know-everything!!
2- Why you so called EX- Iranians become so much Nokar Sefat and slave of other nations than your own? Although I always say, Those who left Iran for West are better off staying there and change their nationality... They beg for identity... Most of those who leave Iran for west are either people with serious psychological issues or weak character slaves who where ever they are they get treated the same!!
It is very funny and childish to COMMENT SO CERTAIN about one car named DENA while non of you have ever sit behind its wheels.... None of you tested it and yet claim childish claims... Most previously produced Iranian cars have serious issues...I admit it... specially SAIPA cars...but as far as a professional point of view is concerned, my professional mechanics say, Some Samand models and DENA in particular are a big step a head and very acceptable in quality.
Despite all similarities and differences between Corolla and Civic with Dena, one sane individual must always remember that DENA is priced only $12000 while Corolla is between 19000 to 23000 with similar accessories and up to 32000 for its fullest version.
The funniest fact about Corolla cars is that, for Iranians inside Iran, a 2015 Corolla costs around $32650 to $38260

This means a DENA with $12000 is waaaaaaaaay better than a $38000 Corolla....
DENA is not inferior to Corolla, it is your mentality and mind set which is inferior to your beloved Jap or Western cars!!!
When you consider yourself inferior to other nationalities, then everything that comes out of your MIND is inferior to others....for me and all my friends... We are proud of ourselves and our country and all MADE IN IRAN products...
DENA is one of the best in market for $12000 and has a good quality... I tested it myself and I must say it is one good car for a very cheap price relative to imported ones...
