Last year, legal entities purchased 3056 Tank 500
SUVs
Drom.ru conducted a large investigation and found out which of the legal entities bought the Tank 500 SUV last year. The data turned out to be interesting, and, judging by it, a variety of budgetary and non-budgetary organizations are purchasing the car. There is even a collective farm on their list.
First, it should be noted that in the Tank 500 sales structure, legal entities make up approximately half of the total: last year they purchased 3056 cars out of 6392 sold.
At the end of last year, three Tank 500 ended up in the garage of the Federal Security Service, but other organizations were buying the SUV. For example, two cars went to the government of the Leningrad region, three – to the economic department under the Cabinet of Ministers of the Government of Tatarstan. The main center for administrative, economic and transport support of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation bought seven Tank 500s at once. One copy was added to the balance sheet of KamAZ, another vehicle was bought by the Union of Russian Mechanical Engineers. In December 2023, as many as four «Tanks» went to the Kurgan Machine-Building Plant, part of Rostec.
One Tank 500 was purchased by regional consumer societies in the town of Tsivilsk (Chuvashia) and in the town of Tatarsk, Novosibirsk region. And one car went to the collective farm «Motherland» in the Rostov region. Tank 500 was bought last year by the Zvezda TV channel, the Novosibirsk Mechanical Plant Iskra, the Chepetsk Mechanical Plant for the production of nuclear fuel and a “lot of other weapons organizations.”
Finally, Drom.ru notes that the Haval representative office in Russia purchased 47 cars for its own needs.
