Russian dealers predicted a rise in car prices due to the fall in the ruble exchange rate
Car dealers have predicted how car prices will change in the future.
Due to the depreciation of the ruble, the price of vehicles will increase by 1 to 5%.
This opinion is expressed in an article by the Kommersant portal, which cites experts.
Some experts expressed concerns that prices could jump by as much as 15%. However, Sergey Udalov from Avtostat does not think so.
According to the expert, dealers and manufacturers are well aware that there is competition in the car market. Therefore, raising prices too much may be unprofitable for business.
Moreover, not only foreign cars, but also domestic cars are expected to see a price increase. Experts explain this by the fact that the Russian auto industry uses many components supplied from abroad.
The next indexation of the recycling fee will also lead to a revision of car prices, which could spur buyer interest in December.
For reference
Exchange rate is the price of one country's currency expressed in the currency of another country.
