TL;DR
- 214 premium brand cars valued at 5.9 billion rubles ($75 million) were imported into Russia between March 2022 and the present, circumventing EU and UK sanctions.
- Recipients include families of sanctioned oligarchs, state contractors, and executives from defense enterprises.
- Luxury car brands like Bentley, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, and Rolls-Royce were imported after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
- Supplies came from at least 15 countries, including EU states, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkey, China, South Korea, and the UAE.
- Approximately half of the car import transactions were paid for in euros and US dollars, potentially traceable by regulators.
- Auto dealer 'Avtodom' was the largest Russian importer, accounting for about half of the sampled vehicles.
- Bentley cars were delivered to annexed Crimea, and Maserati cars were directly supplied from EU countries after sanctions were imposed.
- The EU is introducing a 'No Russia clause' from 2024 to prevent European exporters from reselling cars to Russia, with potential accountability for violations.
