The Chinese concern Sinotruk (owns Sitrak and Howo brands) confirmed Quto.ru that trucks are checked for compliance with the OTTS certificate (approval of the type of vehicle). The company “actively contribute to an unscheduled audit initiated by Rosstandart and Prosecutor General.” What are the claims of the authorities are not yet specified.
The Sinotruk concern is the main competitor of KAMAZ in the Russian market: according to Avtostat, Sitrak trucks were first ahead of the Chelninsky auto giant for sales for 12 months last year. From January 2022 to April 2025, 50 thousand heavy Sitrak heavy trucks and almost 17 thousand Howo have implemented in our country, which corresponds to the total market share of 21%.
Russia called the problems of WeICHAI engines on the Shacman dump trucks Rosstandart explained how the hacman dangers were brought to Russia in Russia, the “most aerodynamic truck” from the creator of Sitrak was brought to Russia
According to Gazeta.ru, an unscheduled check will last from May 13 to 26, and the Sinotruk concern risks facing the review of OTTS. In February, Rosstandart’s claims led to the fact that they banned the sale of Shacman-Besellers, and now the authorities have become interested in the successes of the “Chinese” in the segment of trunk tractors (Sitrak) and heavy dump trucks (Howo).
KAMAZ CEO Sergey Kogogin directly stated that dangerous trucks were imported from China to Russia that did not correspond to technical regulations, but did not specify who defeated the legislation. This week, a representative of the auto giant complained that KamAZ sales look “not very good”, and “all negative factors came together in 2025”.
