But first, a few words about the company with which our customers will have to deal.
FAW not only ranks first among all Chinese automobile companies, but also ranks among the 200 largest enterprises in the world. This is the oldest car factory in China - it has been producing cars since 1953. The Russians are interested to know that it was created by order of the chairman of the Communist Party of China, Mao Zedong, impressed by what he saw at the plant. Likhachev, and they built the enterprise with the assistance of the USSR.
Last year, FAW sold an unprecedented number of its cars - 2.6 million units. Mostly freight, which the company has been producing for nearly 60 years of its existence. However, the “passenger” production is also gaining momentum: the company has had such specialization for the last fifteen years. FAW Group's distribution centers and branches operate successfully in more than 80 countries of the world, and now in ours.

Please explain what the bouquets of fresh flowers on the costumes of everyone who represented the brand at the FAW stand symbolize?
- Eastern tradition: clothes are decorated with flowers on significant days. The introduction of products on the Russian market is one of them. The peculiarity of the moment is that the former ties of the First Chinese Automobile Plant with your country are renewed, although now in the commercial sphere. Believe me, this is also an event for us.
“It’s good for customers when a choice appears. But you will have to convince them of the merits of their cars in the face of intense competition. What are you going to like?
- For several weeks now, the Besturn B50 city sedan has been sold in Russia. In our opinion and according to the reviews of third-party experts, the machine is equipped and designed in the spirit of modern trends. In confirmation of this, I will say that the basic configuration already includes systems that provide reliability, comfort and a level of security that are competitive with those in the cars of leading world brands. (For more information about the model, see below. - Ed.).
FAW B50
I want to note that this car, formally related to class C, is closer to class D for a number of characteristics, including dimensions. And the price is very moderate: depending on the configuration - from 519 to 619 thousand rubles. Hence the hope of a successful sale of the Besturn B50. So he will give an idea of the level of technology that the company produces.
The first result is quite satisfying: the debut hundred Besturn B50 delivered in the Russian Federation sold out pretty quickly. By the end of this year, our distributor in Russia, the Qingroup company, is sure to sell 4.5 thousand cars of the brand, next year - 10 thousand, another year - about 20 thousand … Not only the B50, but also other models in the price range range from 300 to 600 thousand rubles. There will be seven to eight items in the model line.
In comparison with the cars of other Chinese automakers, ours have a number of advantages. Among them, a branded service network in almost a hundred cities of the Russian Federation, a three-year warranty on new cars or 100 thousand kilometers … However, the events will show how much we are right.
Thank you, success
