“Avilon”: Taxi drivers in Russia will soon transfer to the same cars

Deputy Director General of the Avilon AG dealer Renat Poepteyev in an interview with Drom.ru said that by the time of the change in the fleets of the Evolute sedan, “will become non -alternative to our consumers.” The top manager believes that buying domestic electric cars will force taxi drivers. Current single sales Evolution I-Pro are a matter of weak production capacities, and not a lack of customers.

Renat Palekteev emphasized that Avilon believes in Evolute and in the long run the brand has the potential. The non -alternative of electric vehicles for taxi drivers has not yet been confirmed, but Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin recently promised to transfer half the taxi vehicles to an electric trough by 2030.

With what mileage is a taxi sold in Europe? And at what price? EVOLUTE I-SPACE: The most affordable “Electro-hybrid” AvtoVAZ opposed the Lada monopoly in the taxi segment

Two years ago, Vladimir Putin instructed to consider the development and application of requirements for taxi localization, so drivers and parks may really not have a choice-only two budget Russian electric cars in the market (Evolute I-Pro and Moskvich 3E). The deputy general director of Avilon sees the prospects for the use of EVOLUTE electric cars and for commercial transportation.

The bill on localized taxis should enter into force on October 1, 2025, but at present only four autovaz models meet the requirements. The parties discuss the possibility of delaying one year and a number of messages: for example, localization requirements may not be distributed to models whose analogues are not made in Russia.
