In February, Russian dealers sold 41,851 brand new cars, which is 62.1% less than in the last winter month of 2022. However, we are already used to such figures. Now we are getting used to the fact that the sales leaders are no longer Hyundai-Kia, Toyota, Skoda and others like them, but solid Chinese.
On the first and second place in the list of the most demanded passenger cars without changes: “gold” – for LADA Granta, of which 16,257 units were sold, and “silver” – for the Niva family (6632 SUVs Legend and Travel). But then – a slight change: Haval Jolion, who finished in fourth place in January, passed former bronze medalist Geely Coolray. In favor of “Jolion” 2445 people made the choice, in favor of “Culray” – 2366.
Next – solid “Chinese”. Geely Atlas Pro kept the fifth position (1269 units), and the brothers Haval F7 and F7x – the sixth and seventh. True, this time they switched places: the coupe-like SUV attracted 1212 buyers, and the usual – 910. The Changan CS35Plus (545 units) suddenly broke from 15th to eighth place, and Haval Dargo (535 units) rose to the ninth out of tenth. . Close the TOP-10 UAZ “Patriot” (462 units), which in January was only 13th.
We add that, according to the Association of European Businesses (AEB), LADA generally leads the new car market – 23,437 cars sold in February. Also in the top three are Haval and Geely: 5324 and 4053 cars sold respectively. Chery should also be among the winners, but these Chinese do not send data to the AEB every month, but once every quarter, so this time without them.
Another curious thing: Sollers (a new house brand under which converted JAC trucks are sold) added five positions and took eighth place (348 units). In addition, another Russian-Chinese brand, Evolute, has disappeared from the list. It appeared in January, albeit marked as “no data”, but now it’s gone again. Probably in Lipetsk they thought it was too early to publicly share their insignificant sales.
