But GAZ cars are in stable demand
As RIA Novosti writes with reference to the analysts of the Kontur.Torgi project, Russian state-owned companies and enterprises began to buy Chinese cars instead of European ones that left Russia.
“The interest of the state in Chinese concerns can be clearly seen.”
“ Instead of Europe, government customers turned to Chinese manufacturers. 8 tenders were announced for Haval cars, last year – only 1. For Chery products – 3, a year ago there were no tenders at all. For Geely cars – 2 purchases, last year they were also not purchased. Thus, the state’s interest in Chinese concerns can be clearly seen ,” said Vasily Danilchik, an expert at Kontur.Torgov.
As for Russian automakers, there is an interesting point here: GAZ products are in stable demand among government customers (156 purchases this year against 128 last year), but there are fewer tenders for the purchase of Lada – 152 against 164 last year.
