🇷🇺 In February 2025, 78.0 thousand new passenger cars were sold in Russia, which is 24.9% less than a year earlier.
Sales of Russian Lada Granta and Lada Niva models dropped by about 40%.
Comments from Alexey Kalitsev, Chairman of the AEB Automobile Manufacturers Committee:
"February confirmed the forecasts of market participants for the first half of 2025. Factors such as the increased recycling fee, high loan costs and reduced credit availability, as well as changes in the tax system, have led to a decline in sales volume. In the near future, the downward trend in sales is likely to continue."

Opinion - The soldiers were operating an M88 armored recovery vehicle, based on the M48/M60. The thing weighs 60+ tons. I suspect they probably fell into a swamp...
