Avtovaz Targets 20,000 Car Exports by Year-End Amid Sanction Pressures

Date:

Avtovaz, Russia’s leading automaker, is on track to export approximately 20,000 Lada cars by the end of 2024, signaling a strong recovery in the export sector despite the ongoing pressures from international sanctions. This marks a significant improvement compared to 2022-2023, when exports plummeted to almost zero, with only a few thousand cars being shipped abroad.

Recovery Amid Sanctions

Maxim Sokolov, President of Avtovaz, shared this optimistic outlook at the Transport of Russia forum, highlighting the company’s ability to recover export volumes even amid mounting economic challenges. “While we haven’t yet reached the high export levels seen during the Soviet Union era, we are progressing steadily and expect to reach about 20,000 cars exported by the end of 2024,” Sokolov commented.

Plans for Future Growth

Looking ahead, Avtovaz is focused on expanding its export volumes even further. Sokolov mentioned plans to increase exports by at least 50% in 2025, showcasing the company’s confidence in rebuilding its presence in global markets.

Key Export Markets

The primary destinations for Avtovaz’s exports are non-CIS countries, with Belarus being the first in line. Additionally, exports to Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan are also growing, and Avtovaz is actively working on expanding its reach to other non-CIS markets. Despite ongoing sanctions, these countries remain crucial partners for the Russian automaker.

Avtovaz’s recovery in exports signals a bright future for the company, even as it navigates the complexities of the global market and political challenges. As the company continues to build momentum, the automotive industry in Russia may be poised for further growth in the coming years.
