If a Russian has the opportunity not to buy a Chinese car, then he should refrain from such a purchase at least for the next three years, until experience is accumulated in the mass operation of Chinese cars in Russia. Jan Heitzer, deputy chairman of the National Automobile Association, told socialbites.ca.
“We need to gain some experience and have a free view of what condition these cars will be in after three years of operation. This also applies to the condition of components, assemblies and paintwork,” Heitseer noted in an interview with socialbites.ca.
For most Russians, Chinese cars are a new product of last year, and everyone who buys them today does so at their own risk and risk, listening only to the advice and advertising of sellers, he added.
“Chinese cars have many design flaws; the location of some components and assemblies is too low, uncoordinated operation of the engine and gearbox. And as a rule, Chinese cars are made of very thin metal; According to this indicator, the Chinese are inferior to the Koreans and Japanese,” the expert noted.
In addition, Heizeer explained that the prices of Chinese cars, which in Russia are sometimes twice as high as in China, do not allow us to put up with these shortcomings.
