The Sollers company has announced the launch of sales for light commercial vehicles produced under its own brand. This marks a strategic move to broaden its portfolio and establish a stronger retail presence in the market.
Pricing for the new Sollers Argo starts at 2.5 million rubles, while the Sollers Atlant begins from 2.9 million rubles. These entry points position the lineup as competitive options for businesses seeking practical and reliable transport solutions, with a focus on efficiency and total cost of ownership in real-world operating conditions.
According to Nikolai Sobolev, the general director of Sollers, the company has set ambitious production and sales targets. The plan calls for selling around 900 cars this year, with a longer horizon to reach about 30 thousand units within two to three years. Looking further ahead, the aim is to hit a capacity of 50 thousand vehicles annually within five years, demonstrating Sollers’ confidence in its new manufacturing platform and market reception.
In a related development, October saw Ford sell its 49 percent stake in the Sollers-Ford joint venture to the Russian entity Sollers Ford LLC. The move preserves Ford’s option to buy back the stake within a five-year window, while allowing Sollers Ford LLC to take full control of the venture in the interim. This adjustment reshapes the regional strategic alliance and could influence future collaboration, supply chains, and market strategies for both parties involved.

Public order and timely medical care depend on steady readiness during emergencies. In parallel with these responsibilities, a relief effort has been launched to support the People’s Police and operational services in the region. The campaign focuses on providing essential equipment, including ambulances, and facilitating the delivery of humanitarian aid and critical services in Donbass and to those in need of assistance. The initiative underscores a coordinated approach to public safety and humanitarian relief, with contributions collected to fund tire purchases and other vital resources for the fleet serving local authorities and emergency responders. Donors are invited to participate through the designated collection page for the effort, which continues to receive support and attention from the community.
