OREANDA-NEWS. The Russian automotive market continues to face hard times. Monthly sales of new passenger cars in 2015 are comparable to 2009. What should we expect from the market in the second half year?

"It is very difficult to forecast automotive market development in the second half of the year: it is at bifurcation point and the vector of its further development has not been determined yet, - CEO of ROLF company Tatiana Lukovetskaya says. - The situation will depend on many factors such as macroeconomics, dynamics of the rouble exchange rate - as if its depreciation continues, car prices will raise again – as well as possible launch of government industry supporting measures and automakers’ policy. "

Summer with traditional low purchasing activity continues. Dealers try to attract customers with discounts and various promotion actions ... "This is the time to be very deliberate in trade stock forming. Flexibility in production policy is particularly important.  Perhaps it is time to form new, more balanced relations between dealers and manufacturers. The logic of the business will require new rules "- Tatiana Lukovetskaya said in an interview with AUTOSTAT.
