Sales at Avtovaz, Russia’s largest carmaker, climbed 14.8% to 30,282 vehicles, Autostat added.

The figures point to an almost unchanged overall Russian car market in September, alongside considerably stronger growth at Avtovaz. That contrast is relevant for assessing domestic demand and the automaker’s performance.
