Russian Car Market Still Needs State Support Measures – AEB

  • According to the Association of European Businesses (AEB) statistics, the sales of new cars and light commercial vehicles in Russia during January-April 2021 increased by 24.3% year-on-year and to make 515.9 thousand units.

    “April 2021 new car sales are 151 964 units and 290,4% higher than the “Black April” of the last year. Especially the four biggest local manufacturers show above-market performance compared to the same month of the last year when the lockdown affected them most. The total sales of the first four months 2021 are 515 934 units and, as expected, 24,3% higher than 2020, but 4,5% below the sales of the same period of 2019*. So far, the sales achievement of this year supports our year-end forecast of 2,1 % sales increase vs. last year, but, with the market getting its real trace, the AMC will be able to update its annual forecast in July. The state support measures are still needed to further stabilize the customer demand and the business,” Thomas Staertzel, Chairman of the AEB Automobile Manufacturers Committee, commented.

    Lada remained the leader of the Russian car market in April 2021 with its sales up 4-fold year-on-year up to 37.9 thousand units.

    KIA continues to rate the second with its sales amounting to 15.1 thousand cars, up 4.4-fold year-on-year.

    Hyundai remains the third with its sales up 6.4-fold year-on-year to 15.5 thousand cars.

    Renault ranked the fourth, its sales grew by 4.5-fold year-on-year up to 13.9 thousand units.

    Škoda replaced Toyota in the fifth position with its sales up 3.4-fold year-on-year to 10.4 thousand units.

    The only brand that saw its sales decline in April was Zotye (down 33%).
