The aim of this paper is two folds:
1- To compare the level of technological advances in Iranיs
Automotive Industry with that of its competitors globally.
2- To compare the relative technological advances of Iranיs Auto
Industry with other sectors of the Iranian economy.
To measure the level of technological advances, we have used the Atlas Model of Technology.
The results indicate that the level of technological advances in Iranיs Auto Industry is quite low compared to developed countries; differences in the level of technology used in other sectors of the Iranian economy are not statistically significant.
In conclusion, we proffer several recommendations and suggestions for improving the current level of technology in Iranיs Auto Industry.
