Production of the luxury Aurus Senat car has been launched at the Ford Sollers plant in Elabuga, Tatarstan, TASS reported on Monday. Russian President Vladimir Putin took part in the opening ceremony by videoconference.

The minimum price of Aurus Senat cars will be USD 245,000, and as reported earlier, the first batch of cars from the production line will come with a high level of options and a price of USD 300,000.

– I travel in such vehicles and I have driven them many times. This is truly a high-quality vehicle which meets all the world standards – Putin said.

Shipments are planned to start in June, the Kremlin says. The majority of Aurus vehicles are planned to be sold on the international markets, mainly in the Middle East.


The Elabuga plant is also planning to produce the Aurus Komendant SUV, TASS reports.

Domestic companies comprise 70% of the suppliers of the components for Aurus vehicles, Putin said and added that it was a good opportunity for them to develop new technologies and get additional orders.

Aurus is the first Russian luxury car brand created from scratch by specialists from the NAMI design institute.
