Mercedes, BMW – isn’t this the dream of every teenager in every country in the world? And suddenly - a surprise: a boy in Uzbekistan, with whom the host of the 808 channel is talking, suddenly declares that if he had 100 thousand dollars, he would buy a LiXiang L9 - a premium Chinese SUV. Cost – from 4 million 787 thousand rubles. Why? Are things really that bad for the German auto industry? It’s worth figuring this out by visiting car dealerships in Uzbekistan.

It is clear that the price is more or less affordable for citizens of the country. And until recently, 70% of the vehicle fleet in Uzbekistan was made up of Chevrolets. But what happened today?
China has slowly begun to “conquer” the country: in particular, the BYD company. There are many car dealerships and cars on the roads from this brand. And we will try to find out how much cars from the PRC and “local” Chevrolet and other brands cost in Uzbekistan. It will also be interesting to find out how you can buy and bring a car to Russia.
