"Volga" will not return even a van

The minivan under the brand name "Volga" GAZ not going to produce

Again emerged in the media hype about the return conveyor Gas "Volga" turned out to be true is exactly the opposite. Supposedly, this brand can release minivan type VW Caddy. Edition CarsWeek.ru said the news on the company and here received an official response: "as part of Speke GAZ Group is investing more than ₽20 billion in the organization of production of new models of commercial vehicles and components. Including LCV in the next generation of self-developing Gas that's already in progress in our engineering center. Production of cars in the segment CDV (Car-Derived Van, which includes the so-called "heels"), in Speke are not supposed to".
So that "Volga" and "Chaika" (intellectual property rights in those marks remain over the Gas) and does not smell.

Under signed by GAZ Group SPIK and received investagate until 2028 will produce conventional LCVs, in the range which will produce, in particular, the new turbodiesel, it is highly likely that it will be localized (most likely YAMZ) 2.0-liter 136-horsepower diesel engine series EA189 class Euro 6 Volkswagen Group.

With a turbodiesel VW EA189 the Gazelle NEXT van Panel van E6 GAZ Group showed at the last IAA’2018 in Hannover 

Expansion of the LCV line will go through the development of the model "Sobol NEXT", the prototype passenger version (A16R12) with a wheelbase of 3.01 m and a length of 5.03 m which was shown at the Moscow International motor show 2012 at the stand of the GAZ Group.

Promising GAZ "Sobol NEXT" (A16R20) promised in the series back in the mid-2010s, but so far in the series and launched

 PS I will Remind that a series of light LCV "Sable" just turned 20 years old and her life cycle as the older "GAZelle BUSINESS" is coming to an end, so a replacement in the NEXT generation release of AZ GAS sooner or later.
