The return of the Zhiguli: AVTOVAZ model names can be rewritten in Russian

The head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation, Denis Manturov, supported the idea of ​​giving Russian names to car models of Russian brands. And in this regard, AVTOVAZ has every chance to become the main target for such a renaming.

– This is absolutely fair from a perception point of view, and I think AVTOVAZ should work out this idea. At least when it comes to replacing foreign words in model names. Actually, I hope that at the next Board of Directors, the residents of Togliatti will give feedback and their proposals, – said Manturov, Chairman of the Board of Directors of AVTOVAZ.

The head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade also said that Russia already has its own “people’s car”. This is LADA Granta with a retail price of 750,000-850,000 rubles. According to the minister, the state should increase the availability of Russian cars through incentives and support measures.

– We will do our best to support those colleagues from the automotive industry who come forward with such proposals, we are ready to consider this matter as soon as possible. Since the first sign is Moskvich next to Lada, next year it will be followed by Volga, I hope, Manturov said when asked by RIA Novosti about the likelihood of reviving the Oka brand.
