Nobody knows them

Ivanov, lepas and Icar brands niche, so there is no talk about voluminous sales. According to him, Rolf did not even decide whether he would take them to practice for him.

According to Evgeny Zhitnorehin of Fresh, Cher Holding’s new brands in Russia will face a number of difficulties. Therefore, the certificate process of the models will take a lot of time and require significant financial investments. Difficulties in transporting spare parts and components from China to Russia are also possible challenges, and high costs will be needed for inadequate recognition and promotions of brands among Russian buyers.

In an interview with Autoexpert Sergey Tsyganov, Gazeta.ru, the Russian market now emphasized that the Russian market does not need new Chinese brands, but Lepas and Icar will still be able to make money.

“Our automobile market does not need new Chinese brands. However, the stamps mentioned will be able to win in the youth markets. Today, buyers under the age of 25 have started to choose a car as home appliances. And every new brand always attracts a new audience because of freshness. Even if this car is old, only with a different name,” he believes.
