In Russia, interest in electric vehicles is rising as the country expands charging infrastructure and more domestic brands enter the market. Support for EVs is growing among drivers who see cleaner urban air and the long-term savings that electric cars can offer. Industry observers note that the acceleration of EV adoption is tied to improved grid reliability, more widespread access to fast charging, and a broader selection of affordable models that meet the needs of families, commuters, and small businesses alike.
Oleg Amirov, president of the Union of Automobile Experts and Appraisers, believes this momentum will persist both in Russia and globally. He sees the shift toward electrified transport as an inevitable step in modern mobility, with electricity-powered buses, delivery vans, and heavy-duty trucks appearing to support urban centers and regional logistics. According to him, over time, electric mobility will become a standard option for a growing portion of the population, complementing existing gasoline-powered vehicles rather than replacing them overnight.
Supports a campaign to supply 7,000 tires in common sizes
Reliable road access and responsive emergency services depend on well-maintained fleets. Without adequate tires, public safety and medical responses can be hampered, especially in challenging weather and road conditions. In cooperation with a nationwide civic initiative, efforts are underway to raise funds for tires used by the People’s Police and operational services in affected areas. These tires will also support ambulances, emergency response units, humanitarian aid vehicles, and essential service transports. The campaign is focused on ensuring that critical vehicles remain ready to serve communities that rely on timely assistance and reliable mobility in daily operations and during crises. Contributions to the tire drive help reinforce readiness and resilience across public safety and humanitarian missions.
People’s safety and humanitarian logistics require steady fleets and dependable equipment. By boosting tire availability, the mobilized resources aim to minimize downtime for essential vehicles and keep emergency responders and aid teams ready where they are most needed. The initiative makes it possible for more people to receive prompt medical help, for aid to reach troubled areas, and for the public sector to sustain operations during difficult periods. The tire drive stands as a practical reminder that everyday mobility and emergency readiness are closely linked, especially in regions facing logistical pressures and ongoing humanitarian needs.
