JV "GM-AvtoVAZ" has settled with the construction of a plant to produce engines

Management of the joint venture "GM-AvtoVAZ" intends to set a building in Togliatti engine plant Opel before the end of this year. It is worth recalling that the information on the possible establishment of such enterprises appeared in the last year, but still decided to build the plant and is not accepted. According to managing director of General Motors in Russia and CIS countries Warren Brown, the final decision on this question depends on several factors. "We can not err in making this decision. So now I tell you I can not say definitely no" yes "or" no ", - said William Brown. The main problem, in his opinion, lies in the fact that it is not clear Does there exist in the Russian market consumers in modern engines produced in Russia, except for JV "GM-AvtoVAZ" and Volga car. Remember also that Russia planned to deploy the engine manufacture Opel FAM-1 volume of 1.8 liters. These engines are currently installed on Chevrolet Viva. In addition, similar motors would be used and on the export version of the SUV Chevrolet Niva, but until this modification is still not put into serial production.
