In July this year, Isuzu withdrew from the joint venture with Sollers and since then the production site in Ulyanovsk has been fully owned by the domestic car manufacturer. It is on hold for the time being, but the restart should take place before the end of this year.

It emerged that Sollers plans to restart production at the former Isuzu factory (now the site is called Sollers Comtrans) in the coming months. This was announced by the company’s deputy head, Zoya Kaika. She also added that the residents of Ulyanovsk will present to the public the line of cars that will be put on the assembly line in December.

Ms. Kaika did not go into details, but emphasized that the new models will help the manufacturer maintain the market share previously held by the Japanese. And the last, we remind you, offered the Russians not only commercial trucks, but also passenger SUVs: the frame of the “rogue” MU-X and the D-Max pickup. It is very likely that their places will be taken by the next “Chinese”.

By the way, in the near future, another “frozen” car plant, Hyundai in St. Petersburg, is likely to restart. The AvtoVzglyad portal talked about the transfer of this enterprise to a new owner in more detail here.
