AvtoVAZ said there can be no competition between Lada and Tesla

Togliatti auto giant AvtoVAZ responded to the statement by Elon Musk about the possible entry of Tesla into the Russian market.

According to a company representative, there can be no direct competition between Lada and Tesla. Even if Tesla officially appears in Russia, electric vehicles will not compete with Lada, since they are targeted at different audiences and are in completely different price categories.

“Taking into account the cost of modern electric vehicles and the cost of any Lada model, which today are the most affordable cars on the Russian market, there can be no competition,” a representative of AvtoVAZ.

On May 21, the head of Tesla, Elon Musk, spoke at the New Knowledge marathon and said that the company could soon enter the Russian market, as well as appear in Kazakhstan and other CIS countries. In addition, Musk said that a new plant for the company could open in Russia. After this statement, proposals from heads of different Russian regions were sent to the founder of the company.
