Dynamics of the capacity of the Russian car market in 2015 - 2020

According to the experts of AUTOSTAT agency, this figure is about 3% lower in compare with the figure of 2019. Recall that then the maximum result of the market capacity in its entire history was recorded - 2.57 trillion rubles. The growth in market capacity is largely due to an increase in the weighted average price of a new passenger car.

Accordingly, the market capacity grew by the same amount. It is also worth noting that the smallest market volume over these 6 years was in 2016 - 1.31 million units. By the way, at the same time the market capacity was at a minimum - 1.72 trillion rubles. At the same time, the maximum market indicator for the reporting period was in 2018 - 1.67 million new passenger cars.
