Russia had a BMW factory before the attack in Ukraine, 2022.After the attack, Germany cut car making ties with Russia and the factory was supposed to be defunct.Nothing of the sort happened: Russians keep making BMWs in the same factory which built them for Germans previously. They are using same equipment, same schematics, but now they wont get parts from Germany so they make Russian parts with varying success and outsource some from China, from a Chinese brand of cars.The car chassis manufacture itself is just metalmaking and completely automated by robots, Russia only needs to give them sheet metal. So they infact look like BMW:s. Its the electronics which is more tricky, its a Russo-Chinese monstrosity now.https://www.verkkouutiset.fi/a/uusi-villitys-venajalla-piraatti-bmwt/Nevertheless of some electrical problems, the more rich Russians are content with driving a BMW even if its not actually German quality.>Pirate BMWs have been manufactured since January 2021 (Russian military needed sheetmetal for itself in 2022-2024 so car factory couldnt operate for two years)Reports say 145 cars have been sold in 2025-2026.

>>538350081the german BMWs arent much better tho.actually I'd even go as far and claim these bootleg BMWs work better than the official ones.
>>538350081do they have 1960s volga engines in them?
>>538350081I wonder what is their quality in compare to regular ones.Everything is becoming more and more shitty nowadays...
>>538350420No mention about the engine they use
>>538350081The sanctions on Russia gave Russia billions in equipment and foreign investment overnight.
>>538350338>actually I'd even go as far and claim these bootleg BMWs work better than the official ones.The BMWs in Germany are made by turks. Russian/ white engineers made cars would be surely better than made by brown turks.
Russians>germans
>>538350081What the fuck, they don't have permission to do that!
>>538350582Russians are asiatic. They cant make anything designed after 1969 without foreign help. They had to restart production of soviet era orc tech V8s for that reason, carburetors and everything.
>>538350081Wow that's a lot of cars for a country with over 100 million citizens! Russian economy is booming!
>>538350081>Buy Russian BMW....good quality...need no gasoline...runs with vodka.
>>538350081>2026>actually German quality
>>538351058better than literal orc tech
>145 carsXDDDDDDwow >>538350420>>538350488indian tata engines https://aecoproducts.com/importing-auto-engine-parts-from-india-to-russia/
>>538350582>made by turks.turkshit 1911s are better than colts these days soooo
>>538351284>indian tata engines https://aecoproducts.com/importing-auto-engine-parts-from-india-to-russia/lol, makes sense this is where they would get the engine
>>538350319So basically a factory making BMW's finished the production of what they had started when BMW abruptly pulled out. Is there any end to how retarded Eurofags are now? It's like they all live in some fake universe.
>>538350582german bmws are made by indians in bangalore. in germany they at most put an amw sticker on an indian-made car>>538350582russian car quality is notoriously bad, even worse than chinkshit if you can believe it
>>538350081I wouldn't download a russian MVW
>>538353310Russian car quality has improved in the last 15-20 years. Their manufacturing reliability is fine. This was done mostly by European manufacturers merging with Russian factories and improving processes and parts supplies. Russian made parts are lagging but they are at least trying to improve that. Russia has a huge trucking industry and those vehicles are very well-made. They also have a luxury car line Aurus that is very high quality. It's not impossible that they'll be producing more native cars that are decent over the next five-ten years. In my reading of their industry there are some issues with basically legacy union-type workers at the biggest factories dating back to the Soviet era and that is the reason they don't make good progress. The US car industry has a similar problem and Japanese/Korean factories located in new regions away from the legacy factories paper it over.
>>538350081>>538350127what are car manufacturing stories?
>>538354397ook ook
>>538350081sounds like the stories where after ww1 germans were banned from building tanks, so they shipped their steel factories to russia to build tanks under disguised as farm tractors, in a german-russian cooperation. the tank factories then end up used by the allied jews against germany in ww2. it seems too obvious.
