Additional payment for Zeekr 001 can be 3 million rubles
Belarusian car dealer «Atlant-M» announced the start of official sales of cars of the Chinese brand Zeekr in Belarus, which we have already reported. Now additional information has appeared for interested Russians.
Recall that Zeekr X can be purchased from 126,000 Belarusian rubles (about 3.5 million Russian), and for Zeekr 001 they ask from 166,500 Belarusian rubles (4.7 million Russian). For comparison: in Russia the unofficial Zeekr 001 costs about 5.5 million rubles.
However, Russian buyers are not recommended to rush to Belarus for the new Zeekr. The fact is that from April 1, 2024, new rules for paying recycling fees will come into force in Russia, which will significantly increase the final cost of imported cars. According to preliminary estimates, the additional payment for Zeekr 001 could be about 3 million rubles, which will raise the price to 7.7 million rubles.
Therefore, experts recommend that Russian buyers carefully check the documents for cars imported from the EAEU or China in order to avoid additional costs and risks. It is best to purchase cars imported by official dealers with a full package of certification documents.
In the case if a car is imported from China and it is not on the list of those allowed for parallel import deliveries, the legal entity must obtain OTTS, therefore, when purchasing, you must require certification documents that comply with the legislation of the Russian Federation.
