The volume of imports of used cars from China to Russia has increased more than fourfold in the seven months of this year, said Sergey Tselikov, head of the Avtostat analytical agency.
If at the beginning of 2025, China accounted for only about 3% of the total structure of used cars imported into the Russian Federation, then by July this figure had increased to 16%.
Tselikov noted that most of the imported cars are models of "global" brands that are produced at factories in China.
A lot of used Toyota, Volkswagen, Mazda, Nissan, BMW models produced in China are coming. "Chinese" brands account for about 25% of used car imports - mainly Geely and Changan.
The expert added that mostly new models aged about three years are imported from China to Russia.
