Moscow 2010: A storm of new wealth ...

When we talk of BRIC, which includes industrial countries such as the emergence Brazil, Russia, India and China are generally made reference to China and India while forgetting the new giant of Europe Eastern Russia.

A car show DEVELOPER

The first edition of the Auto Show in Moscow was held in 1992 and since 2006 he stands inside the Crocus Expo Exhibition Center in Moscow. World-class, this building makes available the organizers of the event no less than 120,000 square meters of space available. This is a show that is held annually and attracts over a million and a half visitors.

The year goes by, we had to cancel the holding of the Moscow Motor Show since many manufacturers had abandoned the said event.

But this year for the presentation of the 14th edition of the Motor Show we can say that everything is back to normal. Thus, more than 600 vehicles that are exposed and presented by sixty exhibitors from a dozen countries.

A growing economy

With nearly two million vehicles sold annually and local production which believes in order to eye, already exceeding the million and a half units, it is clear that the holding of this event represents a window on the world for its local producers, including the giant AvtoVAZ.

In recent years, new manufacturers come to make reservations on-site models in local market, or even to european markets. Among these we find the names of Ford, Volkswagen / Audi, PSA Peugeot / Citroen, Mitsubishi and Renault. South Koreans Hyundai and Kia are very popular in Russia and will produce more of the vehicles there, including a new Hyundai Accent specific expectations of Soviet.

Sales of several foreign manufacturers have progressed by more than 40% in recent years and there is evidence that Russian economic bubble is still booming, despite a slight slowdown last year. The small downside remains from local manufacturers stagnant, especially in sales, although they remain very important. Speaking local builders, there is in reality a large industrial group called AvtoVAZ, which includes among others the Lada brand. A giant that is happening very close last year forced to close its doors.

However, the future of AvtoVAZ is henceforth responsible for the injection of big money from the government, but especially thanks to a commercial agreement signed with Renault / Nissan group that will allow both companies to develop, produce and market several new models using platforms french group.

Through this agreement, we see that the Italian Fiat is the loser and General Motors-just missing out on a great business opportunity in this country emergence.
