February of changes: Chinese cars are taking over the market, but LADA is still holding its own

The Russian car market continues to decline. So, in February of the last – pre-war – year, the Russians took 114,349 cars from car dealerships, but this year – only 56,148 new cars. The TOP-5 brands most in demand among our compatriots have also changed dramatically.

If in 2022 these were LADA, Kia, Hyundai, Renault and Toyota, then after the flight of the last two and the “freezing” of the activities of Korean manufacturers, the list of new leaders will look like this: LADA, Chery, Haval , Geely, Kia. Beautiful, you see, a sad, but characteristic image.

There is good news though. If last February the domestic LADA Granta was not at all in the top three best-selling cars, then it even topped it in this car! And the brand as a whole shows the wonders of sales, the volume of which increased by 13.6%, according to the Avtostat agency. Unfortunately, this does not go without a hitch: the sales growth of Chinese products has increased by more than 50%.

If we return to the other most popular models, the top five includes LADA Niva Travel, Chery Tiggo 7 Pro, LADA Niva Legend and Haval Jolion. And while “Granta”, who pushed Kia Rio off the podium for reasons beyond his control, with its 27% market share overtakes the rest of the finalists at least 4 times. It is clear that the main issue here is the price of the issue, and the prices for the Togliatti model are the most interesting.
