GM leads Russia's (foreign) car sales

Chevrolet was the leader with 114,964 cars sold, followed by last year's leader, Ford, with sales of 105,858 and Toyota finishing up third with 99,503 in sales.
Showing the biggest increase in sales was Chinese car manufacturer Chery, which increased its total sales by 580% to 24,000.

If one includes sales of other GM brands the lead will probably be a lot more.

hyundai used to be the market leader at one time(ie just a very short while ago) seems like it is nowhere in contention now.

Re: GM leads Russia's (foreign) car sales

Ah, we've come full circle! It IS a Daewoo... the old Lanos. Very simple, but it looks nice enough.
