Due to the Ukrainian conflict, all car manufacturers have faced serious problems. Some suspended deliveries of cars from abroad and the conveyor belts of their Russian factories for political reasons, others experienced acute shortages of components due to disruptions in supply chains. Only the Chinese car manufacturers, on whom great expectations were still placed, had more or less confidence. But it looks like they won’t save the situation either.
The newspaper “Kommersant”, referring to the statistics of the customs authorities of the PRC, reports that in May the volume of deliveries of Chinese cars to Russia fell significantly. So, if in March the “heavenly” companies sent cars to our country for an amount of $ 190.7 million, and in April – for 84.6 million, then in May – only 32 million. That is, the difference between the last two months of spring was 62.2%.
The drop in imports is explained by logistical problems caused by the Ukrainian conflict and anti-Russian sanctions. In addition, local outbreaks of the coronavirus in China and lockdowns interrupting the work of ‘heavenly’ manufacturers had a negative impact. Played “against” and the instability of the ruble, which was observed in May.
Really in the near future we won’t even be able to buy Chinese cars? Not at all: the experts of the AvtoVzglyad portal are sure that our neighbors have everything under control. And you can learn more about this by watching the recording of the online conference dedicated to the topic of the automotive industry in the PRC, which can be found here.
