The former Kaluga plant Volkswagen produces three hundred cars a day

As the Russian car telegram channel found out, the enterprise restrained by the new owner in the Kaluga region increased the volume of production by a large-sized method to almost 300 cars. We are talking about the models of Chery – Tiggo 4 crossovers, Tiggo 7 Pro Max and Tiggo 8 Pro Max. Also in the workshops of the plant, the fourth crossover, Tiggo 9, was previously seen, although there is no information about its assembly yet.

The Volkswagen ex-Wolkswag, after the departure of the German concern from Russia, crossed the AGR Automotive Group. For more than two years, the site was idle, but in July 2024 the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Anton Alikhanov said that the plant was restrained. What kind of cars they assemble there, Alikhanov did not specify then.

The production of new Tenet brand machines will begin in Russia in the second quarter the new Russian brand Tenet will produce at least three crossovers: they are disclosed at the former Mercedes-Benz factory launch the production of new brand ESTEO

Only in February 2025, AGR announced the launch of Tenet’s own automobile brand, under which cars assembled at the former Volkswagen plant will be sold. Production will be launched in the second quarter (April-June). Tenet’s first -born will become a crossover 32T – this is the Chinese CHERY TIGGO 7L with other nurses. Following the conveyor will stand 3XT based on Tiggo 4, and the third model will be 31T – according to some reports, Tiggo 8 Pro Max will hide under this index.

Earlier it was reported that at first Tenet cars will be assembled with a coarse method. In the second quarter, AGR will go to serial assembly with a gradual increase in volume, simultaneously preparing the conveyor for the production of a full cycle – with welding and coloring. They plan to establish small-sized assembly in the third quarter (July-September).
