The opening of the first official dealership of the Chinese brand Li Auto (Lixiang) in Russia will take place before the end of May. This is stated in a message from Sinomach Auto, a company representing the brand's interests in Russia, which was received by Izvestia on April 30.

A month after the announcement of Li Auto's (Lixiang) entry into the Russian market, 32 official dealers were appointed in the country, many of them among the top ten in terms of sales. Now the first cars are arriving at the warehouses, said Dmitry Rotkin, deputy head of the branch, director of the Department for the development of the Sinomach Auto dealer network in Russia.

Li Auto cars in Russia will receive a master account, a Russified interface, a 3-year or 100,000 km warranty, as well as a 160,000 km battery warranty. Prompt delivery of spare parts from a central warehouse in the Russian Federation is promised.

The company noted that for several years, Li Auto models have been among the leaders in terms of imports to Russia through alternative import channels.
