The plant will work on 21 and 28 June which are Saturdays, in accordance with an agreement with the plant’s labour union, Prime-Tass reported.


AvtoVAZ plans to produce an extra 2,742 cars and assembly kits as a result of the shifts added after high demand in April and May. Sales in April rose 30% month on month to 67,000 cars, the automaker said.


Higher output in June would enable dealers to replenish their inventories.
