I have been driving an Aurus for a long time, and before that I had a Mercedes. And you know, I really like Aurus - comfortable and convenient 
Valentina Matvienko

According to the parliamentarian, it is necessary to switch to Russian cars when the old cars "end their life". She believes that you should not get rid of imported cars for the sake of "ostentation" and "campaigning".

At the same time, Matvienko did not specify which cars would be purchased for the senators. She referred to the fact that these issues would be dealt with by employees of the Administrative Directorate of the President of the Russian Federation, members of the government.

The Speaker preferred that these be cars that are as import-substituted as possible, and not "quasi-domestic" cars with half of foreign parts.
