KAMAZ Magnate 2025 crossover shown on renderings: what to expect from the new car
By ForGeeks Chinese brands under Russian brands: how local assembly helps foreign manufacturers bypass barriers and conquer the Russian market. Chinese car brands continue to show interest in the Russian market, but some companies prefer to remain in the shadows. For example, automaker SAIC has not made any official statements about its plans to enter the Russian market, but its models can already be found in Russian showrooms. Given this interest of Chinese companies, it is not excluded that in the future we will see the appearance of new cars on our roads.
Nevertheless, government measures aimed at protecting the domestic auto industry are getting in the way of this process. In particular, the duties and various payments that foreign automakers must make when importing cars are being increased. These measures stimulate foreign companies to organize assembly plants in Russia. That is why Chinese cars under Russian brands are appearing on the Russian market.
In these circumstances, it is quite likely that a new crossover such as the KAMAZ-53212 Magnate 2025, shown by portal naavtotrasse.ru, will soon appear on our market. Recently, an independent designer presented renderings of this car, which aroused considerable interest among the public. Although Kama Automobile Plant has not yet made official announcements about the launch of passenger cars, its active participation in the revival of the Moskvich brand shows its readiness to develop a new market segment.
Collaborating with Russian companies is becoming a strategically important move for Chinese manufacturers, especially given their ever-expanding global presence. However, it is not easy to operate in the Russian market – in addition to scrappage duty, other mandatory payments are added, making the cost of Chinese cars too high. Therefore, Chinese manufacturers are forced to immediately consider localization of production in order to reduce costs and make their cars competitive.
Partnership with Russian companies opens up new opportunities to bring a wide range of vehicles to our market with minimal costs and risks. This is especially true for models like the recently revealed KamAZ-53212 Magnate 2025, which could become an important addition to the current lineup of Russian brands.
