Under the sanctions, according to experts, premium brands will be the first to leave the domestic market. European manufacturers of expensive cars were noted among the candidates for departure. The outsiders were Jaguar, Volvo, Porsche, Infiniti, Land Rover, Lexus, Opel, Jeep.
In the current situation, the stocks of cars for brands that have stopped deliveries will last for a maximum of 4 months, and the number of dealerships will decrease.
It is extremely difficult for premium brands, including BMW and Mercedes-Benz, to continue working in the Russian Federation under the current conditions. The same applies to Infiniti, Land Rover, Lexus, Porsche, Jaguar.
July sales figures, with individual brands falling by more than 90 percent, indicate the depletion of machine stocks. Parallel imports are not particularly popular, as automakers have limited car supply quotas and there is a high chance of being sanctioned.
