Currently, the number of used car exports to Russia is increasing rapidly.

Behind this is the economic sanctions against Russia issued by the Japanese government in March of this year, “export ban on ‘luxury goods’.” As a result, in addition to diesel engines and tractors, passenger cars priced at over 6 million yen each were considered luxury cars and were subject to import bans. Exports of dump trucks, bulldozers, and trucks were also banned in June. As a result, the only cars that can be exported to Russia are “used passenger cars” with low unit prices, and demand is rapidly increasing.
