The capital regions are leaders in the secondary market of spare parts

At the same time over 80% of this sum is belonged to foreign spare parts (USD 1.87 billion). These data are presented in the new marketing report “Market of automotive components and spare parts for passenger cars in Russia”.

Another region, the market capacity of which exceeds the billion mark, is the Moscow region, where it was sold automotive components for USD 1.38 billion.

Also it should be noted that these two regions have about a fifth part of the total Russian market. Spare parts for foreign cars of the Moscow region are also popular (USD 1.08 billion), while the market volume of components and assemblies for Russian cars is at least three times smaller (USD 304 million). In addition, this ratio is more than four times in St. Petersburg, which was the third in the overall standings (USD 923.3 million).
