Mr Igor Komarov said “We agreed on the particular time and amount of funding of the new production line, which will create additional jobs at AvtoVAZ. We understand that we can start the production of vehicles of three concerns on one line in 2012. The alliance will supply 75% of the funds and AvtoVAZ will cover the rest.”
