In March, GAZ plans to produce about 1,500 cars for export to Iraq. By mid-2003, GAZ expects to supply about 5,000 cars to Iraq. GAZ signed a contract to supply Volga cars with Iraq’s Ministry of Trade in September 2001.


Currently, GAZ is negotiating with Iraq over the conditions of a new contract to supply 5,000 GAZ cars and vans of the Gazel family.
