With a little delay we now have access to November Kazakhstan data courtesy of www.akab.kz, and things are getting a turn for the worse here with sales down a harsh 19% year-on-year to 13,673 units, impacted by grey Russian imports as I described in last month’s article. The year-to-date total is now up just 0.3% at 150,561 deliveries and should fall into negative by the time Full Year 2014 results are through, whereas it was up a gigantic 71% a year ago. The Lada Priora keeps the lead despite a 38% drop followed by the Lada Granta (+5%) while the Kia Rio replicates its fantastic Russian performance in Kazakhstan by more than doubling its sales year-on-year to 790 units in third place. The Uz-Daewoo Nexia imported from neighbouring Uzbekistan is back in business and lodges a second consecutive month inside the Top 5 vs. #10 year-to-date, the VW Polo is up 99%, the Lada Kalina up 93% and the Chevrolet Cobalt smoothes out somewhat but still shines at #15.
