Their original model was the plastic-bodied Sinad I hatchback (styled as an SUV in press releases) launched in 2000. This was followed by the facelifted Sinad II, which received a larger grille in three compartments.[4] A coupé version, the Sinad III was also presented. In 2003 the Axon 5-door estate version of the Sinad was launched. The development of the car was undertaken by BMS Automotives Ltd of United Kingdom based on an existing Renault model and a concept by International Automotive Design. The air conditioned vehicle named Sinad in Iran and Sultan for export markets has a 1,600 cc (98 cu in) Renault K7M engine and mechanical components.
