Chinese cars are starting to surpass European cars in parameters such as service. In this respect reports “Prime”, referring to auto expert Egor Vasiliev. According to him, after the departure of European brands, the entire dealer infrastructure went to Chinese companies at almost no cost.
“As a result, we are now dealing with Chinese cars that have not only begun to outperform Europeans, but are also created taking into account the specifics of operation in difficult Russian conditions,” Vasiliev added.
According to the auto expert, cars of European, American and Japanese brands, once legally purchased from Russian dealers, have nowhere to repair. Cars supplied through parallel imports often experience operational problems. Therefore, new Chinese cars have a serious advantage.
