More than 140 dealers from all over Russia, more than 10 media and top-loading factories, and a number of financial institutions gathered together to sum up the 2018 JAC brand under the efforts of all parties. Grow and harvest, and discuss the plan for common development in 2019.
The Russian car market is huge and it is the sixth largest car market in Europe. Before the financial crisis, the Russian market maintained rapid growth for several consecutive years. In 2008, the overall market size reached nearly 3.4 million. Due to the impact of the economic crisis and the continued sanctions imposed by the United States and Europe after 2011, the Russian auto market began to shrink sharply. The 2017 Russian auto market has seen its first growth, with sales reaching nearly 1.6 million. In 2018, the Russian auto market continued to grow again, with sales exceeding 1.8 million, an increase of 12% year-on-year.
With the improvement of the world economy, the transformation of the Russian economy and the slowdown of US and European sanctions, the Russian auto market is also continuing to recover. After five years of intensive cultivation in the market and careful cultivation,JAC has accumulated a lot of money and has become the first brand of light trucks in Russia and a new benchmark in the industry.
At the beginning of the conference, the Russian subsidiary first thanked the dealers for their trust and support for JAC. At the same time, the Russian subsidiary carried out the work summary report of 2018 and the key work of 2019 in terms of sales, service and publicity.
