Prices for cars from the Middle Kingdom are already quite high, but in the next three months they will become even higher due to the weakening of the ruble and the continuous increase in the cost of logistics services, dealers say.
Price growth is predicted to fluctuate within 10%.
The association “Russian car dealers” confirmed the rising trend in prices for Chinese cars in the spring. In fact, they have no clear competition other than domestic brands. But it is worth taking into account the current economic conditions and the purchasing power of Russians – so if prices rise, it will be insignificant.

However, dealers also do not exclude that, given the reduced consumer demand for cars in the Russian Federation, Chinese car brands will try to keep prices at the end-2022 level in the coming months.
The only thing on which all dealers are unanimous is that you should not expect a price reduction for new Chinese cars – they do not see the conditions for this.
