According to the Russian Automobile telegram channel, in 2024 several Volga brand cars were officially registered in Russia, despite the lack of mass production and the necessary permits. The situation raises questions among automotive market experts.
Three demonstration models presented to Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin in May 2024 were registered: the Volga C40 business sedan and two crossovers – the compact K30 and the mid-size K40. Experts note the paradoxical nature of the situation, since registration of cars under the Volga brand without vehicle type approval (VTA) does not meet the established requirements.
The revival of the Volga did not happen: there is no website, and the phones are silent Details have appeared about the market prospects of the new Volga The Ministry of Industry and Trade will help release new Volgas
Particular questions are raised by the fact that when applying for a vehicle design safety certificate (VSSC), the applicant does not have the right to change the make of the car, but the cars were registered as Volga, and not as Changan, on the basis of which they were created.
The new Volgas were presented in Russia at the end of May 2024 at the Digital Industry of Industrial Russia exhibition. The revived brand’s lineup includes the D-class C40 sedan and two crossovers – the C-class K30 and D-class K40, based on cars from the Chinese manufacturer Changan.
