The "Alarm-Motors Hyundai" dealer in St. Petersburg completely sold out the first batch of Solaris HS in a day, which arrived on March 18. Buyers booked cars in advance, when they were not yet in the showroom, so Russians who came to the car dealership could not purchase the displayed cars. This is not surprising, since the first batch shipped by AGR Automotive Plant LLC to both capitals was only 150 cars. But Solaris HS can still be purchased in other cities.
Thus, more than 200 Solaris HS 2024 models are still being sold in Russia. They are presented in three trim levels out of four possible: Active Plus, Comfort and Sportline. Most of the cars available for sale are equipped with a 123-horsepower 1.6-liter engine and a six-speed "automatic". However, there are also "Solaris" with a 100-horsepower 1.4-liter naturally aspirated engine and automatic transmission.
Prices differ from those announced earlier. For example, the basic Active Plus configuration at a dealer in Voronezh costs RUB 2.05 million. The exact same car in Moscow will cost RUB 2.17 million.
Cars in the Comfort configuration with additional Winter equipment are available from a dealer in the capital from 2,199,000 to 2,339,000 rubles, with Light and Winter packages - the price tag starts from 2,110,000 rubles, with the Light package - 2,374,000 rubles, and with Advanced options - from 2,363,000 rubles.
There are Comfort configurations with three packages Light + Winter + Advanced or Light + Advanced + Safety. Prices for such cars range from 2,370,000 to 2,428,000 rubles. Without "extras", the Comfort configuration can be found in Moscow from 2,243,000 rubles. The only car in the Sportline Comfort + Advanced configuration is available for 2,310,000 rubles.
Dealers explain the high demand for Solaris HS by the interest in the car not only from individuals, but also from corporate clients, including taxi fleets.
