NAZ Orders 500 China`s Lifan Vehicles
The Nakhchivan Automobile Plant (NAZ) continues to work normally and ordered in China around 500 Lifan passenger cars. This was reported by the plant’s local media director Musa Abdullayev.
He said that 270 units of machinery are ready and sent to Azerbaijan. From the words of the representative of NAZ it is clear that the local production of cars is not real. Furthermore, the plant gets almost finished cars.
According to the State Statistics Committee, in 2015 Azerbaijan carried out assembly of 728 passenger cars, which is 60.9% less than in 2014. In January-March NAZ was idle.
In a Cabinet meeting, President Ilham Aliyev called on government agencies to buy cars from the NAZ, calling them good-quality.
Until now the main buyer of the NAZ Lifan vehicles has been the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, which distributes them free of charge to the preferential categories of people (disabled WWII and Karabakh war, liquidation of consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster, the 20 January tragedy, etc.). ----08D
