On March 3, Moskvich began delivering its vehicles across every city in Russia where the brand has authorized dealers. A sizable network has already taken shape, with 52 sales and service points now open in 23 cities. These hubs are spread across major urban centers such as Moscow, St. Petersburg, Volgograd, Voronezh, Yekaterinburg, Izhevsk, Kazan, Kemerovo, Krasnodar, Krasnoyarsk, Naberezhnye Chelny, Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Orenburg, Perm, Rostov-on-Don, Samara, Saratov, Stavropol, Tyumen, Ufa, and Chelyabinsk. The expansion marks a significant step in making Moskvich vehicles accessible to a wide audience and signals the brand’s commitment to a broad, countrywide footprint.
The rollout will continue with the brand’s dealers adopting the recognizable Moskvich branding. This transition is accompanied by comprehensive training for network staff, with a particular emphasis on electric vehicles. For many customers, the electric model experience is new, and the brand is focused on delivering knowledgeable support, confident demonstrations, and a seamless purchasing journey from the first inquiry to after-sales service.
The broader plan for Moskvich includes a concrete production and product strategy. In the year 2022, the company set ambitious output targets, aiming to manufacture 600 cars, with around one third of that total powered by electric motors. The manufacturing roadmap projects a total production volume of 50,000 vehicles, among which 10,000 are expected to be fully electric. These figures reflect the brand’s push toward electrification while maintaining a diversified lineup that can meet various customer needs in different regions of the country.
In terms of pricing, the Moskvich 3 city crossover has a starting point at 1,970,000 rubles. This price positioning places the model within reach for a broad segment of buyers looking for a compact crossover that blends practicality, urban usability, and modern features. As the dealer network grows and local support improves, potential buyers can anticipate more precise pricing, financing options, and value-added services in their area.
