The head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, Denis Manturov, announced that the GAZ Group is planning to start producing passenger cars under the legendary Volga brand. The revived serial Volga will appear in 2024.
"Colleagues say that mastering a new model takes about 8-9 months. But we also allow for some additional reserve period of time: we plan to choose a partner in the nearest future. Take a year, let's say. By next summer, I think," Denis Manturov replied, answering the question of the beginning of production timing. In other words, the same scheme will be applied to 'Volga' as to 'Moskvich': at the first stage - large-unit assembly from Chinese car kits, at subsequent stages - localization.
Despite the fact that GAZ is primarily associated with trucks and commercial vehicles, the company has sufficient competencies for the production of passenger cars. Back in 2006, the company purchased a production complex for the production of sedans - for the production of Volga Siber. From 2013 to 2015, GAZ produced Chevrolet Aveo cars under contract for General Motors, and from 2011 to 2022, contract assembly of Volkswagen and Skoda cars for Volkswagen Group Rus was carried out at the site in Nizhny Novgorod.
