The new recycling fee leads to a change in the model structure of parallel imports

Popular models with power over 160 hp, such as the Geely Monjaro and premium Chinese hybrids (Lixiang, Zeekr), are gradually leaving supplies. This was reported by the analytical agency “Avtostat” with reference to surveyed auto experts.

Commercial Director of Matolistics Plus Marina Zanarevskaya confirms that the changes are especially sensitive for Geely Monjaro, and demand for Zeekr and Li Auto has decreased. At the same time, there is a growing interest in cars with less powerful naturally aspirated engines, for example, the Mazda CX-5 (155 hp).

Director of the Rolf sales department Nikolai Ivanov believes that in the premium segment, buyers will most likely buy the car they want, even if it rises in price by 700 thousand rubles due to new fees.

Earlier, cars of the new controversial Zubr brand were noticed in Minsk.
