Deputy head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Vasily Shpak announced the delivery of domestic ABS systems to Russian car manufacturers from July 1. Their production is established in Kostroma.
«The local production of ABS is already being launched in Kostroma. From July 1, serial deliveries of ABS to Russian car manufacturers will begin», — said Vasily Shpak.
The deputy head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade reported that it has already been possible to import replacement electronic control units, cable products and, partially, sensors. «We continue to plan to increase the share of Russian electronic components in the automotive industry, as well as to localize the missing electronic architecture», — he added.
This news has already been commented by the editor-in-chief of the publication “Behind the wheel” Maxim Kadakov. «They launched it. But assembly is not yet full-fledged production. At its Kostroma plant “Pegasus” the company Itelma has organized an automatic assembly line. And even recruited new employees for this. But in its basis our ABS is a Chinese system. By the way, from spring they put ABS on Vestas with Lada Pegas Kesens sticker…So, originally, it is a Chinese ABS Kesens», — Maxim Kadakov told us.
