There is an opinion that Ukraine does not have its own automotive industry, and what exists is just scrap metal. Partly this is true, but there are historical moments that elevate the domestic automotive industry and serve as reasons for pride.
For example, many people know well that the Ukrainian LuAZ is considered a very capable off-roader, capable of surpassing more famous and much more expensive competitors. And although it was a long time ago, you will surely be interested to know that the LuAZ-969M made it to the TOP-10 best cars of Europe in 1978!
Then, at the Turin Motor Show, the jury named the Lutsk off-roader one of the best in terms of off-road capability and cost.
