Last spring, the Russian Cabinet of Ministers ordered to simplify national vehicle certification rules. Because domestic car factories suddenly lost the supply of a whole “bouquet” of high-tech components for assembling cars.

The decree made it optional to install systems such as ABS, ESP and airbags on a new domestic vehicle. In addition, the ERA-GLONASS emergency response system was allowed to be used with a reduced functionality in the event of an accident – without the possibility of automatic operation in the event of an accident. Well, now you can use all engines – even Euro-0.

And February 1, 2023 was set as the expiration date for permission to produce “simplified” cars. But since the spring of 2022, nothing has fundamentally changed in the supply system of Russian car factories. Although AvtoVAZ somehow adapted to the situation and began to re-equip its LADA Granta with airbags. Nevertheless, the government of the Russian Federation has decided to extend the license for the production of “simplified” cars, reports RIA Novosti.
