[2] The upmarket version named ELX features smart instrument cluster, multi-purpose Persian-reading dashboard telematics, alarm with door auto-lock, park assistant, electric Recaro cloth seats equipped with heater/cooling fan, luxury dashboard trim, passenger illuminated vanity mirror, 4-disc brakes with ABS/EBD, and finally rally alloy wheels.

Not as well equipped as ELX, this model was simply an upgraded version of Pars in terms of engine and rear brakes.

The Iran Khodro website contradicts this information, stating that a non-ELX 16V variant was still produced in 2009 (and with drum brakes in the rear).

[5] The more powerful LFY engine (later used on the ELX) fitted to the 16V models grabbed the interest of the authorities who are always seeking for high-performance yet inexpensive cars as service vehicles.

They also managed to just barely fit a daylight system on the new Pars, they removed the plastic protection pieces from the car's body to make it look and seem more modern.

The car this time around, was also equipped with more features such as a DRL System, Electronic stability control, Gear Shift Indicator screen.
