According to the Moscow Government’s Department of Transport, the capital has become the largest consumer and producer of electric vehicles. The city’s industry closely interacts with transport. It produces 57% of all Russian electric vehicles and is home to two companies in the passenger electric vehicle segment—Moskvich and Atom.
Moscow is a leader in transport engineering not only in Russia but also globally. For example, the SVARZ plant in Sokolniki is developing production of the most advanced KAMAZ electric buses. Final assembly of these eco-friendly vehicles is carried out here.
All complex microelectronics for commuter rolling stock are manufactured in the capital.
Moscow companies produce high-tech equipment for traffic management systems, smart road signs, and traffic lights.
The Technopolis Moscow special economic zone, on the instructions of Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin, places special emphasis on developing social infrastructure. Employees here have access to a variety of sports facilities and services. The city is successfully developing a joint project with Rosatom to create a modern Gigafactory. The plant will produce traction batteries for electric vehicles, electric buses, and electric vessels.
