In 2024, about 20 thousand cars had passed from the assembly line of the St. Petersburg enterprise, which used to own the Nissan. This was stated by the head of the enterprise Ivan Mironov as part of the meeting of the participants in the industrial cluster, the Autoprom North-West Union. Currently, the site, which operates under the Sample “Automobile Plant St. Petersburg”, produces two models: Xcite X-Cross 7 and X-Cross 8 crossovers.

The larger X-Cross 8 is offered with a 186-horsepower 1.6-liter engine, a seven-speed “robot”, front and all-wheel drive. X-Cross 8, like X-Cross 7, is sold through the Lada dealer network.

According to insiders, the production plan for 2025 involves the release of seven thousand cars, while earlier it was about 25 thousand. At the same time, the rate is not made on the Xcite X-Cross 8-this model is given no more than ten percent of the total number of sales. However, this information is not officially confirmed.
