AGR notes that the company managed to form a wide network of Russian suppliers who uninterruptedly supply the conveyor with automotive components.

It was reported that the assembly uses components left at the plant after the departure of Hyundai and Kia, but AGR did not confirm this information. The parts stored at one of the largest automobile plants in Russia should be enough for about 70 thousand cars, subject to the purchase of some components, insiders said.
