You can’t hide an awl in a bag, and every event, no matter how crazy it may seem at first glance, has its own logic. This is exactly what happened with the unexpected and explosive farewell from Russia to one of the most important centenarians of the domestic car market – the Renault brand. More recently, “Romb” was the main supplier of cheap, folk cars, created models for Russia and owned AVTOVAZ, calling a spade a spade. But today the French are caught between a rock and a hard place. A policy that has nothing to do with business, but remains a fact: Renault is forced to leave Russia.
However, there are laws of the genre that cannot be violated by anyone: billions in investments and signed contracts cannot just be taken and given up. Companies, especially such a large one, know how to negotiate. So Renault agreed with Russian officials, giving itself not only a chance to bounce back, but also, as we see it, a market share. Plus, the deal – and that’s exactly it, don’t confuse soft with warm – looks as crazy as it is ambitious.
They came out a long time ago, in 2015, the French bought the rights to the legendary brand Moskvich in Russia, which is not a member of trade unions and associations, therefore can not be used for political pressure on Renault . But at the same time able to fix the position of the French brand during the forced exodus from Russia.
A few weeks ago, the AvtoVzglyad portal assumed exactly such a turn of events, but with reservations about the details of the present moment, which rejected all old terms and rules. Well, the situation is so irrational that even fantastic scenarios take place. We need to take a broader view of the world, let go of stereotypes and accept any scenario, even the most fantastic one. What times – such decisions!
Who and what will be producing in the factories of the Moscow Renault Plant, which can already be called AZLK again? Renault representatives declined to comment predictably, citing only the news from the mayor’s office, but our sources close to AVTOVAZ shared information about the start of certain “processes” that are “far from complete”.
Let’s assume – we’re pretty good at it – that the conveyor, originally ground for the B0 platform, will stamp LADA XRay and Largus, then switch to its own models. That? Let’s take a closer look at Renault’s Chinese partnership, originally founded for the production of crossovers and then moving exclusively to electric vehicles.
And what the hell isn’t a joke, exactly? Russia is the richest country in the world with electricity and we have already seen the “electroMustang”. Why is ElectroMoskvich worse? Although the first case didn’t go well…
