Specialized experts predicted for the Russian auto industry an increase in the share of domestic brands to 45%, which implies the release of a number of new products,
Let’s start, perhaps, with the “nails”, which, without exaggeration, will be the new models of the Moskvich brand that have fallen from oblivion. The mayor of the capital, Sergei Sobyanin, personally announced his readiness to start production of new cars, even promising that the Moscow car plant would reach the same volumes as the French Renault once demonstrated. And two freshly baked cars will help in this – a crossover and a sedan, the names of which will most likely contain indexes 5 and 6.
Unfortunately there are no technical details yet. But one thing is clear – the handicrafts of the same Chinese company JAC will become a donor for future products of the original Russian brand Moskvich. By the way, there is nothing wrong with this, because it is better to use ready-made solutions than to spend decades trying to build at least something similar to a car, as is done in vain at the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant.
But LADA has clearly grown in quality, albeit again not without the help of Chinese colleagues. The Volzhans relaunched the flagship Vesta, which received ABS from the Middle Kingdom, and soon the list of versions will be supplemented with “two-pedal” gearboxes and the most fashionable tablet of the infotainment complex.
However, Vesta is not the only premiere of the Volga Automobile Plant: at the St. Petersburg enterprise, which once belonged to the Japanese Nissan, several promising crossovers are being prepared for assembly at once, which, by the way, also had a hand in Chinese comrades. And the large-scale work on updating the nationwide LADA Granta, which clearly does not intend to give up the lead among all the cars on the market, is almost complete. The icing on the cake will be a “warmed up” LADA Niva modification with a productive engine and a bunch of various improvements. Well, why is it worse than the Gelendvagen, which has not changed shape or style for years, but is still relevant?
Let’s move on. In the product line of the new Russian brand Evolute, represented by the i-Pro sedan and the i-Joy crossover, an addition is being prepared in the form of the i-Sky SUV, which parodies the Chinese electric car Dongfeng Forthing Thunder . The novelty is trying to justify the declared source during complex tests in the north of Russia, so as not to fail even before the start of sales. By the way, the power reserve of the next “Evolute” is 600 kilometers. In any case, the automaker itself insists on it. We’ll probably find out exactly how it works soon.
Another utopian, but no less Russian product is being prepared for release by the Almaz-Antey concern. The project, called E-Neva, is an electric crossover that can “try” not only an electric motor, but also a hybrid. Let’s say more: representatives of the company explain the possibility of even installing a hydrogen unit in a car. However, why was not stated.
And the once loudly advertised project of the city car “Kama” was transformed into a whole line called “Atom”. The country is promised three small electric cars that can even be controlled from a smartphone. It seems that the couriers get a miniature Duo, and the young people who decide to get on a wonder car share get a more spacious Family. The third model is still only being designed in prototype status and will most likely be aimed at taxi drivers. Unless, of course, they want to move from proven experience with foreign cars to dubious “carts” Made in Russia.
