Production Toyota Land Cruiser SUV Prado, organized at our car factory Sollers, covered. The management of car assembly plants did not agree with the generals of the concern Toyota, the previous agreements on the assembly of Kruzak were canceled, the new ones were not signed. The reason for the termination of cooperation with the Japanese voiced economic unprofitability of this enterprise. That is, it’s not profitable to assemble Kruzaks in Russia today, but it’s more profitable to bring the finished one today ... As an alternative, the option of transferring Sollers’s plants from the practiced "screwdriver" assembly of a Japanese SUV to a full assembly was considered, but after calculations they decided how they decided: Toyota Land Cruiser Prado will be imported wholly. Whole production process by assembling prado in the Far Eastern sites, Sollers is completely stopped, workers are transferred to the line for the layout of Mazda cars. According to Sollers, the Mazda assembly line is 100% loaded. However, the leadership is looking for new partners who would be interested in the released capacities of the factories, because foreign cars of other brands could also be collected here.
