This issue is currently being discussed

The President of AvtoVAZ confirmed that the issue of purchasing Lada Aura and Iskra cars for the state segment is already being actively discussed.

A TASS journalist asked him whether AvtoVAZ was discussing the possibility of supplying Lada cars for the needs of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation, to which Sokolov gave an affirmative answer.

«Yes, Aura will go first, but Iskra will go second at the next year», — specified Sokolov.

Earlier, AvtoVAZ Public Relations Director Sergei Ilyinsky commented on rumors about problems with the production of the Lada Iskra, which are sincerely surprising, as he put it.

Vehicle production will begin in 2025.
