Criminals in Russia began to steal Chery, Geely and Haval cars, which are widely used in taxis and car sharing, to be dismantled for spare parts. Andrey Kondrashov, head of the Laboratory for Copyright Protection against Theft, told Gazeta.Ru about this.
“These cars are very often used in taxis and car sharing. And it turned out that taxis and car sharing repair their cars mainly with used spare parts, reducing the cost of maintaining the fleet. Chery Tiggo 7, 8 and 9, as well as Haval F7x, are popular among car thieves,” Kondrashov said.
According to him, car thieves respond to increased demand for spare parts for such cars and at the same time hide traces of the crime by dismantling the car. Overall theft statistics have fallen, but the number of Chinese cars among those stolen is growing. The number of Geely Tugella thefts has also increased, Kondrashov added. Cars that have recently entered the market, such as the Geely Monjaro, are virtually absent from theft statistics, he concluded.
