The largest automobile manufacturer in Russia, VAZ, was surpassed by the Koreans from Kia!
In November, the Russian citizens have opted for 10,834 of Kia Rio models, while Lada Granta has managed to convince only 10.520 customers.
The difference of 314 cars is enormous, if we compare the number of inhabitants, but for VAZ this means a lot, which is NR1 automobile manufacturer in the Russian Federation since the 70s. Company officials accuse its partners that delayed the delivery of components required and thus the production of new cars has stagnated for several days.
Even so, VAZ remains the Russians favorite, with a total of 351,992 cars sold by the end of November, while Kia sold only 175,495 cars. Lada Granta is the preferred model being sold 139 405 models, followed by Hyundai Solaris with 105,142 units shipped and the third stood is Kia Rio, with 84,350 models sold
