The share of Chinese brands in the Russian new car market continues to grow rapidly. So, in the period from August 15 to 21, our fellow citizens bought 2,590 fresh “heavenly” cars, and this is 26.4% of the total number of cars sold, which in turn is a record figure for car manufacturers from China.
After the events in February, many foreign car manufacturers have partially or completely suspended their activities in our country. The same companies that remained raised prices to unimaginable values, and the Russians, in dire need of an update of the vehicle, were left with nothing but domestic brands and “Chinese.” And while the former are still in the lead, the latter are steadily gaining momentum.
So, according to the data of the agency “AUTOSTAT”, after the results of the third week of August, the total share of “heavenly” brands reached 26.4% for the first time. The Chinese have already overtaken their Korean competitors – their figure has fallen to 16.1%. Ahead – only domestic brands, occupying 39% of the market.
If we look at brands, LADA cars were in highest demand with dealers selling 3,613 cars. Kia built 936 cars, Haval – 732, Geely – 719 and Chery – 672. As for specific models, LADA Granta (2529 units) remains the best seller. Second place went to Haval Jolion (546 units), third place went to LADA Vesta (486 units). Geely Coolray and Chery Tiggo 7 Pro round out the top five: 421 and 398 people respectively made their choice in their favor.
