OREANDA-NEWS. According to the analytic agency "AUTOSTAT", for the 6 months of 2016 sales of automatic transmission cars in Russia were 320 thousand units, which meets the market share of 51%. Thus, for the last six months, it was bought in our country more cars with the "automatic" than with the "mechanics".

Redistribution of sales in favor of cars with automatic transmission was at first time in the history of the Russian market, because until this year their market share was always less than 50%. For example, the figure was 48% in 2015. As a result, for the last six months it has increased by three percentage points, which is largely connected with the increase in the share of sales of cars with "automatic" transmission at the brands that are market leaders.
