Russian car brand Lada has idled production due to parts shortages. The iconic marque is currently owned by Groupe Renault.
Renault had previously paused production at other factories in Russia, citing short supplies of parts, but it has not taken any steps to exit its Russian operations in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Lada is expected to resume production next week.
Lada dominated the Soviet market during the 1970s and 1980s, and its Niva SUV remains on sale today at a starting price below $10,000. Russian President Valdimir Putin has used a personally owned Lada Viva painted in camouflage colors to promote the Russian automotive industry.
