The Russians began to massively rent premium cars. The most popular models among customers are Mercedes-Benz, Rolls-Royce and Lamborghini. Prices vary from 10 thousand to 95 thousand rubles per day.
Since the beginning of 2023, the number of offers to rent a car has increased by 55%. Most of them are in Moscow, the Moscow region, St. Petersburg and the Krasnodar Territory, Izvestia writes.
Experts attribute the increase in offers to the increase in the cost of servicing premium cars. Therefore, Russians who, for various reasons, do not use a car, prefer to rent it to cover maintenance costs, close a loan or have passive income.
- Imports of new cars to Russia in January-May increased by 4.8 times, deliveries from China in monetary terms reached almost $1 billion per month. The sharp jump in imports was due to a long absence of local offers in the mass segment, including Lada Vesta, market participants point out.
