ST. PETERBURG, Nov 7 (PRIME) -- German car producer Daimler may spend at least 300 million euros on construction of a Mercedes plant in Russia’s Moscow Region, Industry and Trade Minister Denis Manturov told reporters on Monday.
“The production capacity is about 25,000–30,000 cars of premium segment, excluding the S-class, I mean premium off-road vehicles,” he said.
“As for the timeline, I think that we are to sign a special investment contract until the end of the year, this is a question of our colleagues’ readiness. I can say that construction of the full technological cycle plant will cost at least 300 million euros”
