Expert Alexander Korotkov said that cars of this segment are sold in the secondary market longer than others and are rapidly losing in cost. According to him, the pickup bet in the current economic conditions is unjustified. Large manufacturers run the risk of forming an excess of illiquid machines, and the buyers themselves – to stay with a loss -making asset for a long time.
Analyst Alexander Korotkov warned of high risks when buying Chinese pickups in Russia. According to him, large car manufacturers who made a bet on this segment that are non -standard for the Russian market may encounter a surplus of unsold models. Selling them with benefits in the current economic situation is extremely difficult.

The average sales time in the secondary market exceeds a month and a half, which indicates low interest from buyers. For comparison: crossovers and SUVs find a new owner in about three weeks. In conditions of economic instability, Russians often prefer more universal and practical cars, so interest in pickups remains extremely limited.
According to the results of April, the Russian company UAZ has hardly retained the third place in terms of sales of pickups. According to the Avtostat agency, the JAC brand with the result of 443 of the car sold was the leader, Great Wall took the second place with 324 cars. UAZ sold 211 pickups, only a little ahead of the Sollers and Foton brand, in which the indicators were 204 and 203 units, respectively.
