Lets hope the Lada doesn’t go ByeBye.
“AvtoVAZ, the maker of Lada cars, says Chinese rivals expanding in Russia are eating into its market share.”
Maybe RuZZia should sell Siberia to China and they can use the money to buy Chinese cars.
“Around 60% of newly sold cars in Russia were Chinese at the end of last year, almost double their share in 2022, according to Russian data provider Avtostat.
Not everyone is happy.
Russia’s AvtoVAZ, the maker of Lada cars, said that Chinese carmakers are crowding out Lada by offering large discounts.
“Many Chinese brands, carrying out, I would say, aggressive expansion into the Russian market, are beginning to break through,” Maxim Sokolov, president of AvtoVAZ, told the Russian newswire Interfax in March.”
