May 5, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> Sales of new passenger cars rose by 17 percent month on month to 6,700 vehicles in Belarus in April, according to BAA Consult, affiliated with the Belarusian Automobile Association.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Belarusian car manufacturers dominated the market last month, with strong sales in high-tech segments, securing a leading position for the BelGee, a Belarusian-Chinese assembly plant, it noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BelGee accounted for nearly 48 percent of the market with 3,200 vehicles sold, while the combined share of all Belarus-based brands stood at 62 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

April statistics indicated a shift in consumer preferences toward eco-friendly vehicles, with fully electric cars accounting for one in three vehicles sold in the country and the combined share of electric and hybrid models reaching 43 percent, BAA Consult said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The car market will be dominated by manufacturers from Belarus and Russia, which established industrial assembly of passenger cars along with welding, painting and assembly operations at local plants, said Siarhiej Varyvoda, board chairman at the BAA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
