It was GAZ’s first participation at an auto expo in Viet Nam. It
introduced five types of vehicles to explore the Vietnamese market,
including GAZelle NEXT trucks, GAZelle NEXT Citiline buses with 19
seats, GAZelle Business 4x4 trucks, GAZon NEXT medium-duty cargo and
Sadko 4x4 trucks.
The firm said it would come up with a detailed plan for assembling cars in Viet Nam.
Christian Kremer, deputy director of Global Sales and Marketing of
GAZ, said the models displayed at the AutoExpo were models representing
different segments of the best-selling commercial vehicles in the market
of commercial light trucks in Russia and Europe.
He said the firm considered Viet Nam a potential market with great
growth in the coming years. From this year, GAZ began implementing the
intergovernmental protocol signed between Russia and Viet Nam on
supporting the production of motorised transportation vehicles in Viet
Nam.
GAZ is currently exploring the possibility of establishing a joint venture and starting sales in Viet Nam, Kremer said.
GAZ has 13 production facilities in Russia and assembly plants in
Turkey and Kazakhstan, with more than 500 types of vehicles, including
passenger cars, trucks, buses, military vehicles and special vehicles.
It has exported products to more than 40 countries across the world.
