The marketing agency NAPI analyzed insurance box genuine spare parts’ prices for traditional Russian* and Chinese cars from aggregators.
Over the year, from June 2025 to June 2026, the average price for spare parts for traditional Russian brands (LADA and UAZ) increased by 11.3% and reached 19.7 thousand rubles. The rear bumper (+6.5 thousand rubles), rear headlight (+3.1 thousand rubles), and rear fender (+12.5 thousand rubles) showed the largest percentage growth.
The average price for spare parts for Chinese-brand cars grew by 8.9% to 78.1 thousand rubles. The largest percentage increase in average price over the year concerned the radiator enclosure (9.6 thousand rubles), airbag (+17.3 thousand rubles), and wheel disk (+7.8 thousand rubles).
Representatives of MIMS Automobility St. Petersburg 2026 commented on the situation in the spare parts market, noting that rising prices for genuine spare parts are increasing the need for market participants to reconsider their purchasing strategies. This issue is particularly acute in the Chinese car segment, where the average cost of the insurance box is already almost four times higher than that of traditional Russian brands. Given the high volume of used car market and the continued expansion of the Chinese car population, it is crucial for suppliers, distributors, and service companies to develop alternative supply channels, expand their line-up of high-quality analogues, and establish a stable product portfolio in advance. Finding new manufacturers and suppliers is no longer a one-time task, but a key factor in maintaining affordable repair cost and business competitiveness.
