Experts spoke about the prospects of Evolute electric vehicles

At the end of September, the production of domestic Evolute electric vehicles started in Lipetsk. Experts interviewed by the agency "AUTOSTAT" informed how much they will be in demand among Russian buyers. "The Evolute i-Pro sedan is the youngest model in the brand's line; it is mainly designed for corporate sales - taxis and car sharing - which are in demand today. The Evolute i-Joy and i-Jet crossovers may find demand among private buyers, but it will still be a metropolitan customer. There is also an i-Van minivan, but I think its sales volumes will be limited. The manufacturer announced plans to sell about 10,000 Evolute cars the next year, which is an ambitious figure, but doable," comments Andrey Olkhovsky, General Director of Avtodom Group of Companies. Renat Tyukteev, director of Mercedes-Benz, Audi and Evolute dealerships at AVILON, said that a partnership agreement was signed between Avilon and Motorinvest.

At the moment, the dealer has already signed contracts with large corporate customers for the supply of over 100 Evolute vehicles. The first cars of the brand are expected in the nearest future, a large lot of 200 cars will arrive in the fourth quarter, and within 1.5 - 2 months the dealer is preparing to receive the Voyah Free luxury SUV. "I can assume that the Evolute models will bite off a part of the new electric car market and a part of the used one, in case that the programs of subsidizing car loans and leasing will work. Only in this case, the purchase seems profitable to me.

The share of private traders, I think, will be a third of sales. And the main distribution regions are, of course, the capitals, large metropolitan areas of Central Russia and the Black Sea resort area," says Igor Morzharetto, the editor-in-chief of Radio Avtodor.
