Due to the shortage of new machines and components, as well as inflation and rising prices for raw materials and logistics, new machines will become even more expensive. If the dollar continues to grow, then imported cars will increase in price by 20% already during 2022.
This is reported by Izvestia, citing experts.
Alexei Mukhanov, head of the research and customer analytics group of Avto.ru, gave a slightly more optimistic forecast. The growth of car prices in 2022 will be 10%. He supposes that the growth of the recommended prices of the companies can be compensated by reduced dealer mark-ups.
Sergey Pigalkin from CarClick noted that in absence of new shocks, demand will remain at the same level as last year, and increase in price will be 10-15%.
