Chinese brands are the only ones that bring new models to the market during the crisis: sales of the Tula Haval Dargo began in the summer, Changan announced prices for Uni-K, and Chery is a new Omoda brand, the first model of which (the C5 crossover) has already been certified in Russia.

All of them are copies of electric cars of the Chinese company Dongfeng, which are localized at the Motorinvest plant in Lipetsk (by the way, the background of the plant is very scandalous).
