In the first quarter of 2025, 23,357 LADA Vesta family cars were sold in Russia, with almost 70% of them having an automatic transmission.
According to Avtostat, the share of automatic transmissions reached 68.5%, while manual transmissions accounted for only 31.5% of sales.
68% of Vesta sedan buyers choose automatic transmissions, and slightly more, 69%, for station wagons. This is a noticeable increase compared to 2024, when the total share of automatic transmissions in sales was only 28% (18% for sedans and 53% for station wagons).
This dynamic indicates a sharp increase in interest in comfortable LADA Vesta modifications and indicates a shift in consumer preferences towards automatic transmissions.
