In April, the sixth model of «Moskvich» 2024 in the basic «Comfort» configuration could be bought for 2,200,000 rubles, and the car in the «Business» version cost 2,400,000 rubles. The engine and gearbox for these configurations are the same: a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a CVT.

The official cost of the car is unknown. Industry experts believe that the crossover will be offered in the range of 2.7 million rubles to 3.2 million rubles, taking into account dealer discounts for loans and trade-ins. A direct competitor to «Moskvich 8» is Chery Tiggo Pro Max.

Recall that the «Moskvich» car factory switched to full-cycle technology in May. Only «Moskvich 3» and «Moskvich 3e» will be assembled in this way.
