The shares of Russian and Chinese trucks in the car market are almost equal

After four weeks of the continuous growth, the market of new trucks for the first full week of September (from the 5th to the 11th) went negative for the first time: last week only 1694 HCV segment vehicles were bought, which is 11% lower than the previous week (1792 units). However, it is 4% better than a month ago (1537 units). Such data were obtained by the experts of the analytical agency "AUTOSTAT" in the course of processing and analyzing the data of JSC "Electronic Passport". And although the Russian KAMAZ is still the leader in this market, with a wide margin from competitors, however, in addition to the domestic brand, the TOP-5 now includes four Chinese ones: Shanaxi, FAW, HOWO and Sitrak.

Moreover, looking at the results of the market in the specified period (from September 5th to September 11th), experts noted that the total shares of domestic and Chinese brands were almost equal. Thus, 714 trucks of Russian origin (45% of the market share) and 693 units of Chinese origin (44% of the market share) were sold the previous week. In the model rating, KAMAZ-43118 (purchased in the amount of 167 units) and KAMAZ-65115 (145 units) are still the leaders, however, only 12 units of the difference separate the second place from the third one (where the Chinese FAW CA3310 is located).
