At the former Toyota plant, not only electric cars, but also trucks will be “registered”
The official statement of the concern says that the site in the Northern capital, previously owned by Toyota, will return to work next year. Then the SKD (most likely) assembly of the BAZ-S36A11 civilian truck will begin. This, we recall, is a joint development of the Obukhov Plant and the Bryansk Automobile Plant – it was presented in April (the AvtoVzglyad portal spoke in detail about the domestic novelty here).
And two years later, that is, in 2026, the enterprise will launch the production of E-Neva electric vehicles, as the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Denis Manturov announced back in mid-April. However, before the production will be “rocked” by some other “electric trains”, cars of third-party brands. But what exactly is still unknown. It is possible that the plant in St. Petersburg will “train”, again, on the “Chinese”.
Recall that Toyota announced the closure of its Russian plant last fall. According to Vedomosti, because of this whole story, the Japanese have lost about 650 million dollars – this is the amount that is estimated at the cost of compensation for employees who have left, as well as the sharply reduced value of assets.
