GAC is negotiating with Russian factories on the localization of production

About this newspaper Izvestia was told by the head of the GAC Motor Russia sales development department Pavel Nikiforov. According to him, “negotiations are underway with a number of local manufacturers and are in the stage of discussion of the site.” He added that the Russian market remains for the GAC one of the priority, since our country has become a leader in terms of export sales. Therefore, all resources, interests and priorities are “built in favor of Russia”.

Nikiforov did not specify which sites in Russia GAC ​​are considering for local production. But he said that the GS4 model will be most likely to stand on the conveyor, since it is “the most interesting in terms of volume and positioning.” “This crossover is presented in a large segment, which used to be the Toyota Rav4 model-many are drawing a parallel between them,” added a top manager.

At the former Hyundai plant, dozens of Jaecoo crossovers found the former Toyota factory in Russia began preparing for restarting: it turned out new details when the former GM factory in Russia would restart the Chery

GS4, we recall, went on sale a few days earlier with a starting price of 2,899,000 rubles with a discount on Traid Inu (2,999,000 without it). The crossover, which in terms of dimensions is comparable to Geely Atlas, can be bought with a connection of a 1.5-liter motor with a capacity of 170 forces and a robotic gearbox. The drive is only front, although competitors are offered with full.

Together with the GS4, the company introduced two more new items in Russia. One of them is the Gac Empow sedan, which performs in the same class with Hyundai Elantra. The Empow is equipped with the same one and a half liter engine for 170 forces and the semi -diaphasnous “robot”. Its cost has not yet been declared.

Well, the third novelty is a special version of the GS8 with the prefix Traveller. Such a flagship costs 4,649,000 rubles, taking into account the discount on the trad-Inu (4,949,000 rubles without it), while the basic version of the same model can be bought for 3,799,000 rubles.
