In 2026, the VGV automotive brand will launch two new models on the Russian market. These are the Bolden S7 pickup and the restyled VGV U70 crossover.
The company decided to focus on increasing sales, expanding the dealer network, and developing service infrastructure in Russia. VGV is part of the Chinese concern Sinotruk, and the brand's crossovers are assembled at the Belarusian plant "Unison."
Sales in the Russian Federation started in the fall of 2024, and the lineup currently includes the U70 and U75 Plus models, built on the same platform.
The Bolden S7 pickup debuted in China in the summer of 2024. For the Russian market, the model will receive a 177 hp diesel engine, 410 Nm of torque, an eight-speed automatic transmission, all-wheel drive with differential lock and a downshift, which makes it a direct competitor to mass-segment frame pickups.
In 11 months of 2025, the VGV brand sold 237 cars in Russia, increasing sales by 80% compared to last year.
