In Russia, finally, there may be quite competitive car brand. On his desire to do domestic car industry, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin told the head of a group of companies ONEXIM Mikhail Prokhorov, one of the most successful Russian businessmen. The billionaire is going to attract to the project of the St. Petersburg manufacturer of trucks Yarovit "and is ready to invest in the project for two years, ie during the time it would take to his study and start-up. It is about creating a budget city car golf class from scratch, but not about assembling cars. According to Kommersant, the cost of the machine will be about € 8,8 thousand. In this case we also consider the option to create never seen before the Russian automobile industry and hybrid electric vehicles. The details of the project so far nothing is known. As soon as the press secretary, Vladimir Putin, Dmitry Peskov, said that its production will be organized on "new basis". What is this then a phrase, nobody knows. However, there are just two are not mutually exclusive views on the subject. Vedomosti, citing one of his acquaintances Prokhorov wrote that the basic principle is to develop a universal platform and the selection of component base, so that both the designer could gather and a sports car and a minivan and a sedan. A Reuters referring to engineers familiar with the prototype model, announced that it will be a car-class golf with a body made of plastic. In any case, according to Peskov, the prime minister liked the idea of ??a businessman, and he called for the speedy elaboration of the project concerned ministries. However, the money under his government is likely to provide will not be, as the project is not yet included in the list of innovation. In addition, the main purpose of the state at the moment is still AvtoVAZ. By the way, despite the fact that production is likely to be located in St. Petersburg, Prokhorov is ready for the wishes of the authorities, some of it may be moved to one or the other troubled region to provide local residents with jobs. However, options for cooperation with AvtoVAZ is not considered in principle. Starting the auto industry from the ground, namely that wished to do Prokhorov, - a very expensive pleasure. More surprising look testimony of various sources about the amount that a businessman ready to invest in this business - from € 100 million to € 1 billion and if the second figure yet somehow meet modern realities, the first is not enough even to buy the finished base. But still it is necessary to design, build a car to run tests, to organize production, distribution network and delivery. The total amount, of course, can be reduced if we take the finished model, but this is what a speech is not. Waiting for child Prokhorov and other serious problems. Key among them: lack of quality components and competition from foreign companies, which can make the business unprofitable. It is with suppliers began to fight for AvtoVAZ specialists Renault. From low-quality parts can not make a quality car. And their purchases abroad will inevitably increase the cost of the machine. In this car worth even € 9000 can hardly be called the budget option. The world's leading automakers such as General Motors, Volkswagen and Mitsubishi have already announced that in 2011-2012, scheduled to release on the Russian market for cheap cars under $ 10,000. So Prokhorov with their products is not enough that can be late to the market cost of cars, but to be on it superfluous. Let us hope that Prokhorov knows what to do. Even despite the fact that the car industry has never been interested in his sphere. Nevertheless, he has repeatedly took on a new deal for himself and has always remained with the shield. In any case, state managers have long been a proven track record with the worst hand, showing that the first thing they start to engage in a new place of work is to provide for their children and grandchildren a comfortable life. Same Rostekhnologii, to bend under him, dozens of companies, most of them managed to divert the negative. Therefore, there is hope only for people such as Prokhorov, who know how to build a competitive business, and how to extract from him a good judge.
