President of the country Shavkat Mirziyoyev stated at a meeting that in 2026, a new car would begin to produce a new car at the Uzauto Motors factory. The press secretary of the head of state clarified: we are talking about the Damas factory-they plan to produce available and demanded 7-seater cars here. Investments are estimated at $ 100 million.
The successor of the Chevrolet Damas is known a little: the car will be seven-seater, and the engine will be the Euro-5 ecostandart. Negotiations with the partner will be completed this year, large-nuclear assembly will begin in 2026, and production in a full cycle with 50 percent localization is expected by 2027. The fate of Mikrovan Damas and his cargo version of Labo is not clear.

Chevrolet Damas is one of the few cars that is still produced with a carburetor engine. Under the hood, a three-cylinder 800 cubic engine with a capacity of 38 horsepower. The traction is transmitted to the rear axle through a 5-speed “mechanics”. In the back of less than four meters, three rows of seats. Demand from year to year is growing: in 2024, 102 thousand (+14%) Chevrolet Damas were released in Uzbekistan!
Over five years, the production of compactwenes has almost doubled, and still demand sometimes exceeds the supply. The secret is simple: the starting price is only 93,156,000 soums (600 thousand rubles). What the model will stand on the DAMAS conveyor is not specified, but it will not be easy to compete with a 40-year-old veteran at a price.
