Russian car dealers have not yet thought of importing new cars from a country like Azerbaijan. Meanwhile, the experts of the AvtoVzglyad portal are sure that this plan can turn into a good business idea, contributing to the saturation of the domestic market with foreign cars.

You will be surprised, but cars are also assembled on the shores of the Caspian Sea! Licensed by the Iranian IKCO (Iran Khodro Corporation). Azerbaijani Khazar SD is a copy of the IKCO Dena sedan. The latter is the result of repeated restyling of the old man IKCO Samand. I remember that the Iranian “Samanda” already tried to break into the Russian market – about 20 years ago, but then “this business did not grow together” for them. But now, disguised as an “Azerbaijani”, there are opportunities. In addition, SD’s main competitor in the domestic market – LADA Vesta – is sold at dealers mainly from old stocks.

AVTOVAZ keeps promising us that it is about to resume production of Vesta. But looking at the situation with the LADA Granta, now produced in Togliatti without ABS and central locking, one inevitably suspects that the new Vesta will be just as poorly equipped. Unlike Khazar SD.

With the “complete set” everything is more or less in order. As for the technical characteristics, SD and Vesta are almost identical in size. In the “warehouse” Vesta configurations, there are still CVT gearboxes. But this does not last long: in the near future only “mechanics” will remain at the disposal of AVTOVAZ assembly production. For Khazar SD, MCP is also a non-alternative option.

The most powerful Vesta engine (1.6 l gasoline) develops 113 horsepower. Of. The performance of a one and a half liter SD petrol engine is 117 liters. Of. In other words, in terms of technical characteristics, the cars are almost the same. The main problem is the price. An investigation of internet advertising sites shows that there are apparently very few new LADA Vesta in the car dealers. Prices for 113-horsepower models start at 1.5 million rubles, and in most cases are noticeably higher.

As for the Khazar SD, it is sold in Azerbaijan for about 730,000 rubles in our money. “Customs clearance” of such a car for import into Russia will cost a little more than 300,000 rubles. Obtaining a document called SBKTS will cost 60,000-80,000 rubles if you import a car according to the most common “for an individual” scheme at car dealerships. In addition, the logistics cost of delivering a car from Azerbaijan to Russia is another about 150,000 rubles. Total about 1.25 million rubles. the delivery costs of the Iranian-Azerbaijani Khazar SD without mileage to Moscow. Let’s add the “seller’s interest” and get the final sale price at the level of 1.5-1.6 million rubles. More than a competitive offer in relation to Vesta. Come on buy…
