According to the AEB Automobile Manufacturers Committee (AEB AMC), sales of new passenger cars and light commercial vehicles in Russia increased by 290,4% in April 2021 compared to the same month of the preceding year. In the fourth month of the current year, 151,964 units were sold; 113,042 units more than in April 2020.

”April sales were 290,4% higher than the “Black April” of the last year. Especially the four biggest local manufacturers showed 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. 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.
