Recently, the British investment company SV Motors Ltd bought almost 65 percent of LuAZ shares. At first, many suspected that the founders of the British concern were close to "Ukrprominvest," which controlled LuAZ. However, the head of the automaker's supervisory board, Volodymyr Hunchyk, reported that SV Motors is indeed a British investment company that invests money in machine-building production throughout Europe. In the near future, we will witness LuAZ absorbing almost 2 billion hryvnias in investments. These are not the only changes at LuAZ. Since February, two Cherkasy plants have joined the automaker's structure: one producing "Bohdans" and one producing trucks. So now the "Bohdan" automobile group, which includes LuAZ, is represented in all segments of the automotive market. As for the long-awaited new Volyn jeep, the news about the LuAZ-13-01 is not optimistic so far. The plant is still looking for a manufacturer of a high-quality and inexpensive gearbox for the "bodyk" (as the Lutsk jeep is jokingly called). By the way, the vehicle that is supposed to fill the Ukrainian niche of the "Niva" will cost about 5 thousand dollars.
