Anar MAKASHEVA,

“Car production in the country is growing, and its pace is twice as fast as the market recovery rate. Parity between imported and locally produced cars is just around the corner - the share of the domestic auto industry reached a record 46,9% for the first time in the first four months. This became possible largely thanks to the next tranche of financing of the preferential car loan program at 4%.”
