Belarusian brand "MAZ" became the most popular in the market of new buses in Russia for the last May 2022. This was found out by the experts of the agency "AUTOSTAT" during the processing and analysis of the weekly data of JSC "Electronic Passport" (EPTS). This event can be considered as unique, since MAZ became the bus market leader for the first time, although only for one week (from May 23rd to 29th). Recall that this market is unconditionally dominated by the domestic "PAZ" with a share of about 50%.
During the previous week of May, new MAZ buses were purchased in our country in the amount of 68 units, while the "PAZ" was sold in amount of 65 units. The Russian "Volgabas" finished the top three of leaders (35 units), and the best among the foreign was the Chinese brand Yutong (12 units). The indicators of other brands amounted to less than 10 units. However, despite these results, PAZ still remains the market leader in May for new buses.
So, for the four weeks of May (the period from the 2nd to the 29th), its sales were 313 units. The result of the Belarusian brand MAZ is 119 sold buses. At the same time, it is even ahead of the domestic "NEFAZ" (150 units).
