Recently, AvtoVAZ has often been criticized for the fact that the plant's products are becoming more expensive, and in addition, the price of Lada cars is adjusted upwards too often. On the social network Telegram, a company representative explains what determines the pricing of Russian cars.
The main reasons for the serious increase in price include inflation, rising energy and raw material prices, changes in tax policy and the cost of components. The price of cars is also influenced by the pricing policy of competitors, as well as state regulation of the industry.
The last indexation of prices for Lada cars occurred at the beginning of this year, and by the end of 2024, experts determined that AvtoVAZ products had risen in price by an average of 4.3%, which, according to the Lada representative, is only half of inflation.
