Governor of the Kaliningrad region, Anton Alikhanov, said that very soon – before the end of 2022 – the Avtotor plant will show several models that will be produced at its facilities instead of BMW, Kia, Hyundai and Genesis. It seems that the company is slowly emerging from the crisis, although there are still many questions.
According to the head of the region, factory workers are now actively working to resume production. This is evident from the fact that several thousand cars have already been assembled at the company in recent weeks. Of course, these are cars of Chinese brands, but it is not yet clear which one. The official declined to release details.
Most likely, we are talking about the products of the company BAIC (Beijing Automotive Group), or rather, about the mid-sized D50 sedan. It can be equipped with a 1.5 liter petrol engine with a capacity of 116 forces or an electric motor. So this representative of the “heavenly” automotive industry may well compete with LADA Vesta, although it is larger.
In addition, it is possible that the BAIC X55 crossover with a supercharged 1.5-liter 150 hp engine will also be registered with Avtotor. It is slightly larger than the Hyundai Creta, but, unlike the popular “Korean”, it does not have all-wheel drive.
We also add that the newspaper Vedomosti wrote in November that the plant could also start assembling Chery cars. But probably still not them, but cars of the Kaiyi sub-brand.
