‘Chevrolet sales increased invariably in January-March 2008 against the first quarter of 2007, and we expect them to exceed the figures for the second quarter of 2007 in April-June 2008,’ Autobahn’s Sales Manager Dmitriy Poleschuk said to UrBC.

AUTOSTAT reports Russian automobile market is now only Europe’s fourth largest market. 73% of automobiles sold in Russia were foreign ones, while Chevrolet is still Russia’s best selling foreign brand that even managed to build up its share of the market up to 9.3%.

‘We feel the increase in sales has to do with more car loan offers becoming available. We sell about 70% of all Chevrolet cars on credit,’ Dmitriy Poleschuk added.
