At the same time, more than 86% of new cars imported into Russia in 2025 are more powerful than 160 hp: since December, they have been subject to an increased recycling fee, making imports in many cases unprofitable.

Among used Volkswagens, on the contrary, for cars up to 160 hp. accounts for 70% of supplies. The leaders are Golf, Tiguan, Passat, Jetta and Tayron.
