The Russians will be sold the so-called “Moskvich 6” (a complete copy of the Chinese Sehol A5 Plus) at a price twice as high as the original model.
The Russian copy of the Chinese car Sehol A5 Plus from Jac, which the Russians pass off as a Moskvich 6, turned out to be 2 times more expensive than the original model. Russian journalists found out that a real scam was unfolding in local car dealerships: prices for the so-called “Moskvich” are in the range of 2.4-3.1 million rubles, while the original Sehol A5 Plus costs 1.36-1.87 million in China translation into Russian rubles. The publication reports this Autonews.
Journalists clarify that the so-called “Moskvich” began to be assembled at the Moscow plant in early September.
Moreover, Russian car dealers report that the price of a car may rise even more.
The Moskvich plant, before the Russian army invaded Ukraine, belonged to the French automaker Renault. However, the French company decided to leave the Russian market, after which the plant came under the control of Moscow and switched to assembling Chinese cars under the old Soviet brand.
At the same time, there is information that Kia and Huyndai will completely close their business in Russia before the new year. Information about this officially appeared in the Russian media today.
Previously, the Russians forgot to change the logo of the Chinese brand on the steering wheel of “their” car. It turned out that the presented car was a Chinese crossover.
