There is high demand for Lada Granta with automatic transmission in Russia. In this respect he is writing “Rossiyskaya Gazeta”, referring to dealers.
Alexander Shaprinsky, commercial director of the Pragmatika dealership network, said that many buyers who once drove a Lada with automatic transmission are now calling them and asking them to contract new Grantas.

Zhitnukhin said that, most likely, part of the Jatco “boxes” remaining at AvtoVAZ will be transferred to dealers for subsequent repair and maintenance of Lada Granta with automatic transmission.
