KamAZ has taken the lead in the heavy truck market

In February 2026, carriers purchased 2.9 thousand new large-capacity trucks with a gross weight of more than 16 tons. This is immediately 33.4% less than a year earlier, but 20.8% higher than in January, analysts from the Autostat agency report.

The undisputed leader among heavy transport suppliers was the domestic KamAZ, which managed to deliver 1,063 trucks to customers. The indicators of other market players turned out to be much more modest.

Thus, with a noticeable lag, the second and third places were taken by the Chinese FAW and Sitrak (316 and 298 units, respectively), which previously had very significant supply volumes.

The top 5 leading brands were rounded out by the Russian Ural (233 units) and the Belarusian MAZ (215 units), which managed to push aside extremely strong competitors from the Middle Kingdom, including Dongfeng.

In the model rating of the segment, there was a change in the favorite – instead of the Sitrak C7H truck tractor, the KamAZ-43 118 became one – this is an all-terrain truck with a 6×6 wheel arrangement.
