Last month saw sales of new cars and light commercial vehicles in Russia decreasing by 10,646 sold units and amounted to 156,848 cars, according to the AEB Automobile Manufacturers Committee (AEB AMC).

“With over 6% volume loss, November sales confirmed the prevailing negative trend in the Russian car market this year,” said AEB Automobile Manufacturers Committee chairman, Joerg Schreiber.

“Of course, the year-on-year comparison should consider the strong sales in the latter part of the previous year, on the back of the anticipated VAT increase.

“For exactly the same reason however we do not expect to see a trend recovery in December.”
