Sales of the coupe-shaped crossover Changan Uni-T, the 12th model in the line of this Chinese brand, have started in Russia. The front-wheel drive car is equipped with a 167 horsepower engine and a seven-speed “robot”. Those who want something more brutal can wait for the Traveler crossover from the Jetour brand. The Russian representative office of the brand has confirmed that this model will reach our market.
And in continuation of the topic of Chinese cars – the news that photo spies released another car of the FAW brand, which can be registered at the AvtoVAZ plant in St. Petersburg and become a Lada. We are talking about the Bestune B70 liftback. But so far there is no official confirmation of this information – just as there are no preliminary dates for the start of production.
Speaking of native brands. The head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation, Denis Manturov, supported the idea of giving domestic cars Russian names. And he emphasized that “from a perception point of view, this is absolutely fair, and AVTOVAZ needs to work out this idea.”
Meanwhile, unmanned trucks drove onto the M11 Neva highway. Recall that earlier an experiment with self-driving cars began there, and now the initiators have moved to heavy equipment. Until now, only KamAZ trucks drive on the toll road without a driver: they carry cargo from the transport companies PEK, GlobalTruck and Gazpromneft-Snabzhenie.
And one more extremely curious news: recently the Supreme Court explained how to apply Article 319 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Insult to a representative of power”. So, according to the Plenum, one statement or obscene gesture to a traffic cop is enough to start a criminal case. That is, to fine the offender up to 40,000 rubles or send him to corrective labor.
