Aurus — that's all!
The Aurus plant in Yelabuga has been in a prolonged shutdown since the beginning of February, which will last at least until the end of March, according to its sources
reports the Telegram channel Russian Automobile.
The official reason for the downtime is inventory. Those working on the conveyor and the administration were sent home, while everyone else counts bolts and nuts. The channel's authors are confident that accounting for bolts can be done in a week, and the real reason for the production halt is that there is simply no demand for these cars, as they are too expensive.

The channel's authors are confident that accounting for bolts can be done in a week, and the real reason for the production halt is that there is simply no demand for these cars, as they are too expensive.
For example, the price Aurus Senat in 2025 reached 48.7 million rubles, and the Komendant — 52 million rubles. Mostly they are bought by state entities. Last year only 142 cars were sold.
At the same time, in 2025, 225 Rolls-Royce, 198 Bentley and 159 Lamborghini were registered in Russia.
The plant management refutes this version, stating that the reason for the conveyor stoppage is work on modernizing production operations.
