by In April, against the backdrop of sanctions imposed against Russia, all positions in the bestseller trio were occupied by AvtoVAZ cars. And, it must be said, even this situation may be temporary – in Russia, all car manufacturing plants were halted, including AvtoVAZ.
And that’s not to mention the cost of Russian Lada cars, which have approached the price of Korean and Japanese models (however, they can no longer be bought in Russia, at least not at a reasonable price).
How car prices have changed in Russia
According to Autonews.ru, in April, the most popular car in Russia was the Lada Niva. In general, the TOP-3 most popular cars in the primary market looks like this:

We propose a new slogan for AvtoVAZ:
Everything will be Lada. But that’s not certain. If it will be.
For general reference: in April 2022, a total of 32,706 new passenger and light commercial vehicles were sold in Russia, which is 78.5% less compared to the same month last year. Let’s recall, as of recently, workers at the largest car factory in Russia are planting potatoes instead of assembling BMW and Hyundai.
