Contracting production of Chinese brand machines will be commissioned at the capacities of the Avtotor Kaliningrad plant, Vedomosti reports with reference to two sources. According to the Auto-Potok Telegram channel, they use the line that was created for BMW assembly. She has been idle for almost three years.
There is little information so far. Insiders say that representatives of Changan and Avtotor are negotiating the possibility of launching contract assembly of the Chinese brand cars at capacities in Kaliningrad. What models are planned to be put on the conveyor is still unknown.
The capacities that Avtotor prepared for the production of BMW are going to use. This is a whole case with a production capacity of 50 thousand cars per year. It has been idle since 2022, when BMW stopped delivering cars to Russia and local assembly.

The Changan line includes 12 models. These are sedans, liftbacks, crossovers and pickups, the cost of which varies from 1.5 to 4.5 million rubles.
