Don't cry for GM Russia. Reuters poroča, da sta bo AvtoVAZ od GM odkupil njegovo polovičko v skupni firmi/tovarni, ki v Toljatiju proizvaja delno modernizirano (nekateri menimo, da oblikovno skaženo) Nivo - z značko Chevrolet. Leta 2014 je ta firma pokazala prototip nove Nive, ki pa ni dočakal realizacije. Od istega leta naprej so namreč mednarodne sankcije in padajoča cena nafte kruto skrčile ruski avtomobilski trg.

On Monday, Avtovaz signed an agreement to buy GM’s 50% stake in the venture, which sees the two companies produce the Chevrolet Niva car from a factory in Togliatti, a city on the Volga river.
Avtovaz did not disclose financial details of the deal which would end GM’s presence in the car assembling business in Russia.
According to the agreement, the factory will continue producing and selling cars under the Chevrolet brand for “a certain period of time” before switching to Russia’s Lada brand.
