Sales of SsangYong crossovers were stopped finally in Russia

The latest SsangYong cars were sold in Russia this spring. This year, only four Korean-made crossovers were sold, the last car found a buyer in April. There are no available cars at dealer.

At the same time, SsangYong officially still keeps a presence in the Russian market. As the press service of Sollers informed, in the near future the resumption of sales is not planned, but in the future the company will continue to look for options to resume supplies of SsangYong crossovers to Russia.

A few years ago, Russia was the largest export market for SsangYong crossovers: in 2013, 34,000 Korean-made cars were sold in our country. But after the collapse of the ruble at the end of 2014, the assembly of cars at the Sollers plant in Vladivostok was ceased, and deliveries from Korea were not begun.

In January of 2017, SsangYong returned to the Russian market with Korean-made crossovers. The demand for cars of the brand turned out to be miserable: for the year only 123 cars were sold. At the same time, deliveries of crossovers were ceased, and in the future, a few dealers sold off stocks of cars.
