They will be produced from “partner” car kits at the former Nissan plant.
According to Rossiyskaya Gazeta, citing a press release from AvtoVAZ, the production of cars under the Lada brand at the former Nissan plant in St. Petersburg will begin earlier than expected, already in May-June. Recall that earlier it was said about the start of production in the second half of the year.

AvtoVAZ has not yet disclosed the models that will be produced at the new site – it was only said that these would be sedans and crossovers of classes C and D. But today there was an indication of one of the possible models . At first, cars (one or more Chinese automakers will act as a partner) will be assembled from car kits.
If the former Nissan plant starts operating in May-June, then AvtoVAZ’s main conveyor in Togliatti will stop: due to a shortage of components, the corporate vacation was postponed from July-August to May-June.
