These plans will cost approximately $US90 million, which UAZ will meet by increasing
car prices and cutting component prices.

The company aims to increase output to 90,000 vehicles this year, an increase
of 5.9 percent, 45 percent of which will be cars, with trucks making up the
remaining 55 percent.
