Vehicles for recycling. Cars available for recycling. Pros and cons

The conditions for car recycling in 2020, in accordance with the requirements of the state program for exchanging old cars for new ones, have undergone minor changes compared to the previous year. The main innovation was the admission to scrapping of almost all vehicles, with minimum requirements for the period of ownership and year of production. At the same time, the mileage technical condition, make and model, country of assembly do not matter.

The program includes almost all types of equipment, with the exception of certain categories of special vehicles and tractors. Thus, you can receive a certificate of compensation for the purchase of all types passenger cars, SUVs and light trucks, medium-duty and heavy-duty vehicles, minibuses and specialized types of transport.

The conditions and terms of the car recycling program in 2020 at the time of writing are valid until the first quarter of this year, then the Government of the Russian Federation will decide on the extension of the validity and the corresponding requirements for state subsidies for the development of the Russian automotive industry.

The timing of the 2020 car recycling program will be determined by the Russian Government for at least one year. According to the president, prime minister and those responsible for implementing the program, the state is not going to stop subsidizing the exchange of old cars for new ones, considering the project to be relevant and in demand among the population.

Conditions for car recycling

If the question is how long will the exchange of old cars for a compensation certificate last, the 2020 car recycling program does not currently provide an unambiguous concrete answer, but its conditions have already been determined.

The main condition for recycling: the car has all the components and documents in order.

To recycle an old car in 2020, the owner must provide the following documents to the dealership:

passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation (vehicle owner);
passport vehicle;
certificate of deregistration of the vehicle with the traffic police;
act of handing over the vehicle to the recycler.

The original or copies of documents to be presented to the dealership are determined depending on the vehicle exchange format chosen by the owner of the scrapped car (recycling or trade-in).

Requirements for vehicles under the recycling program

According to the terms of the federal car recycling program in 2020, mandatory requirements for scrapped vehicles have been determined in Russia.

Scheme of requirements for accepting a car for scrap.

availability of documents establishing ownership of the car;
complete technical base of the vehicle with the presence of all units and components;
The car must be owned by the owner for at least six months.

The law provides for the possibility of introducing additional requirements for a scrapped vehicle, established by the dealership. Also, representative offices of automobile manufacturing plants may include in the mandatory conditions of participation in the program a clause on the need to dispose of the vehicle exclusively at recycling companies included in their own list.

The recycling program may not be available to owners of old cars due to the following parameters:

non-compliance of the vehicle with the conditions of the federal program or the offer of the dealership;
statelessness Russian Federation;
false documents provided for the vehicle or inappropriate technical base of the vehicle, deliberately equipped with different models and brands;
the car is completely new, or purchased on lease, credit, bank installments and at the time of disposal is pledged to the bank.

The refusal to provide a discount by the dealership is determined by it independently and may not have a reasoned reason, since the format of mutual cooperation between the dealership and the car owner is not regulated and is exclusively in the contractual plane.

Discount amount for the recycling program

Before deciding to scrap a car, you need to make sure that the desired vehicle that the owner plans to purchase to replace an old one is participating in a scrappage or trade-in program. A rebate certificate often applies to certain vehicle models, each of which has its own maximum rebate amount.

The minimum threshold of monetary compensation for the purchase of a new car to replace a scrapped vehicle depends on the car manufacturer and the recycling format (program or Trade-In). Thus, the VAZ company offers a minimum discount amount of 20,000 rubles, while the maximum amount of compensation is 80,000 rubles.

The current certificate for a discount under the recycling program can reach a maximum of 600,000 thousand rubles, is offered by Mitsubishi partner dealerships and applies exclusively to vehicles of the model Mitsubishi Pajero Sport.

On average, the amount of compensation varies from 50,000 to 350,000 thousand, depending on the car purchased. The discount will be valid only at a specific dealership, and its size is determined individually. Often, the owner of a scrapped car is offered participation in special promotions, which, if additional requirements are met, offer more favorable conditions for purchasing a new vehicle.

Conclusion

In conclusion, it is worth noting that the car recycling program in Russia will continue to operate in subsequent years. State subsidies for auto manufacturers located in Russia make it possible to remove dangerous and faulty vehicles from the roads, replacing them with new, safer and more comfortable cars.

During operation, any car wears out, as a result, there comes a time when it becomes unprofitable to repair it, it is necessary to purchase a new model. For this purpose, you should take advantage of the opportunities provided by the recycling program. Buying a car under the recycling program in 2019 means becoming the owner of a car purchased with significant discounts.

In order to become the owner of a new vehicle on the most favorable terms, you need to have a clear understanding of how the recycling program works. It was first tested in 2010 and has been improved every year since then. Its main tasks are:

increasing sales of cars produced by domestic manufacturers, as well as enterprises owned by foreign companies but operating in the Russian Federation;
improving traffic safety by stopping the operation of vehicles with a high degree of wear and tear;
improving the environmental situation by reducing emissions of exhaust gases into the atmosphere.

Those citizens who would like to become owners of a used car can resort to the services of car dealerships; some of them practice such sales within the framework of the trade-in system, when the cost of the vehicle being traded in is taken into account when purchasing the car selected at the dealership. However, it should be borne in mind that the dealership’s specialists will value the vehicle being rented out significantly below its market value, so such a deal will not be very profitable.

IN this year the government plans to allocate more than 60 billion rubles. to support the auto industry. Economic crisis led to a significant reduction in sales of new cars, which affects the financial position of market participants. The question of extending the car recycling program for 2018 remains open.

The economic crisis has led to a rapid decline in sales in the automobile market. For 2015-2016 the drop in sold cars was 24% and 29%, respectively. The only factor that keeps the market from an even greater collapse is government support.

Last year the government allocated 54 billion rubles. to support this sector. At the same time, the authorities use the following tools to revive sales:

recycling program;
purchasing a car on trade-in terms;
reduction of interest on car loans;
financing of leasing programs.

In 2017, the government plans to expand the scope of support - the volume of budget funding will amount to 62 billion rubles. In addition, in the second quarter the authorities intend to launch additional tools to stimulate demand. At the same time, state support will become targeted, officials note, which will increase its effectiveness.

The vehicle recycling program remains the most effective measure to support the market. This program allows you to save on purchasing a new car from 50 to 350 thousand rubles. subject to disposal of the “old” car. In this case, the additional costs for dealer services amount to 10 thousand rubles. In addition, the vehicle will need to be deregistered. In addition to the economic component, the recycling program allows you to reduce the number of old cars, which has a positive impact on the environmental situation.

Without this tool, the market could have dropped by 40% last year, which would have led to a significant deterioration in the financial condition of industry representatives. At the same time, the prospects for extending the car recycling program for 2018 remain vague, due to economic realities.

Sales dynamics

This year, analysts expect a resumption of sales growth in the automobile market. AEB representatives predict sales growth of 4%. As a result, the total volume of cars sold will reach 1.48 million units. However, January results do not look so optimistic - sales fell by 5%. Analysts attribute similar trends at the beginning of the year to low lead activity in the first two weeks of January. In the future, sales will restore positive dynamics, which will continue in the medium term.

In addition to government support, a significant driver of growth this year will be the recovery in lending.

At the same time, banks will be able to offer more attractive interest rates, taking into account the reduction in the discount rate by the Central Bank.

A further recovery in the economic situation will call into question whether the recycling program will be extended in 2018. The government is not confident in the effectiveness of this measure and assumes that the program will be wound up soon.

Car recycling program: prospects for 2018

Representatives of the Ministry of Economic Development are considering canceling the recycling program in the near future. Department experts note an improvement in economic dynamics, which is reflected in the restoration of income growth. As a result, government support for the industry is no longer necessary; demand for new cars will continue to increase.

Reducing state support will help reduce the burden on the budget, which is experiencing significant difficulties. The authorities intend to gradually reduce the budget deficit, which is impossible without optimizing the existing cost structure. The recycling program may also be cut.

Another factor that could lead to the cancellation of the program is constant complaints from the European Union. The recycling program allows you to purchase only cars that were assembled in the Russian Federation. As a result, the main “beneficiary” of this program remains Hyundai and Kia. This creates unequal conditions for all market participants, EU representatives are sure. In particular, European partners intend to file a complaint with the WTO.

Further prospects for the recycling program for 2018 depend on the development of the economic situation. Optimists predict a gradual market recovery and a reduction in lending rates. In such conditions, there will be no need for large-scale support from the state. At the same time, the government will be able to reduce budget expenditures.

In the event of a new decline in prices on the oil market and a deterioration in macroeconomic indicators, the government will be forced to extend support for the auto industry into 2018.

Reading time: 5 minutes

Desire to purchase new car is present in almost every person. But alas, desire alone is not enough. It is necessary that it coincides with financial capabilities, because collecting the required amount is not easy. And the fact that the state lends a shoulder to its citizens, encouraging their desire to acquire a new car, does it credit. It was thanks to the funds allocated by the federal government that it became possible for many Russians to purchase a car under the recycling program last year. Perhaps this will happen in 2020.

How to buy a new car for recycling

Naturally, since this program involves the expenditure of budget funds, it is aimed at helping Russian citizens. Therefore, only those who have Russian citizenship can participate in it. This is the first basic condition.

Further: the money allocated by the government for this program is intended to promote development. This means that it is important not only to understand how to buy a car under the recycling program in 2020, but also that it will be possible to purchase only cars produced by enterprises located in the Russian Federation.

An old car that can be returned under the program must be owned by a citizen for at least 1 year.

If a Russian has chosen another option for exchanging his vehicle - trade-in, that is, he has decided to enter into an agreement with the seller to exchange his car for a new one with an additional payment, then the minimum period of ownership is limited to 6 months. But according to the trade-in program, the old car is not disposed of, but is sold by the dealership after pre-sale preparation. Consequently, they will not take any car, but one that can be easily sold. That is, there are restrictions on age and condition.

But under the recycling program you can hand over almost any car, of any age. True, in this case, the owner will not receive any payment for the scrapped car, but he will be given a certificate (certificate) entitling him to a discount when buying a new car, which can range from 10 to 350 thousand, depending on its make and model .

In addition, there are a number of other rules that determine how to hand over an old car for recycling and buy a new one on favorable terms. The dealer from whom you will draw up documents to write off your car for scrap will inform you in detail about this.

What cars are included in the program?

Here we should talk about those cars that are sent to the landfill, and about those that replace them. In other words, everyone is interested in the answer to the question of which cars are accepted for recycling according to this state program and which ones can be purchased in return within its framework.

What cars can be recycled

As mentioned above, you can take part in the program in 2020 by recycling any car.

Make, year of manufacture, mileage do not matter. The law only stipulates that a machine that is subject to disposal must be fully equipped.

What brands can you buy?

Naturally, the question of which brands of cars can be purchased under the recycling program is decisive for most car enthusiasts. After all the procedures for preparing documents for a scrapped car have been completed, and a certificate has been received for the right to receive a discount when purchasing a new car, it’s time to study the possibilities and prospects.

You should understand that even with the mentioned certificate in hand, you cannot go into a car dealership and choose any car you like. The fact is that automakers themselves decide which car models will participate in the state program.

Of course, only domestically assembled cars can be offered for purchase, since the program does not apply to cars manufactured outside the Russian Federation. Only the manufacturers themselves determine which cars they sell for recycling, and what the prices for new cars will be, taking into account the discount. This is entirely their prerogative. The state has nothing to do with pricing. There are only recommendations from the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation regarding the size of such a discount: 50 thousand rubles - upon purchase passenger car and up to 350 thousand rubles – when purchasing a cargo truck.

The cars under the 2019 recycling program, the list and prices for which we give below in the table, were selected by official dealers. In order to purchase them, you must contact directly the manufacturer’s representatives in your city and receive from him step by step instructions specific actions.

What discount can you get?

In reality the process looks like this. You are contacting official dealer with the question, what kind of car can I buy under the recycling program? This may be one model, or there may be several. For example, Citroen gives a recycling discount only for the C4 model, and Ford declares a whole line of its models assembled in Russia to participate in the program. This is the first.

Second. Having drawn up an agreement and all documents for the disposal of your old car, you receive a certificate for a discount when purchasing a new car. Its size, as already mentioned, depends on the type, make and model of the selected car. The table shows the program discounts that were in effect last year.

Car make	Model	Discounts on recycling, thousand rubles.	Trade-in discounts, thousand rubles
Chevrolet	Niva	40-80	30
Citroen	C4	-	70
Datsun	On-DO, Mi-DO	50-70	50
Ford	Fiesta, Focus, Mondeo, Ecosport, Kuga, Explorer	50-180	20-130
Hyundai	Solaris	50	40
KIA	Rio	50	-
LADA (VAZ)	Vesta, XRAY, Granta, Kalina, Priora, Largus, 4x4	20 Largus and 10 all other models	20-60
Mazda	6, CX-5	-	40-95
Mitsubishi	Outlander	-	80-100
Nissan	Almera, Sentra, X-Trail, Qashqai, Terrano, Pathfinder	50-100	50-350
Peugeot	408	-	130
Renault	Duster, Kaptur, Sandero, Stepway, Logan	50-90	40-90
Skoda	Rapid, Octavia, Yeti, Superb	50-150	40-150
Volkswagen	Polo	50-90	50-90
UAZ	Patriot, Pickup, Hunter	40-60	50-70

Regarding trucks, then the size of discounts when purchasing them under the recycling scheme can reach the maximum possible - up to 350 thousand rubles. However, more detailed and accurate information can only be obtained from representatives of the automaker. For example, KamAZ in its program provides a number of benefits both in terms of price and terms of acceptance of an old car.

It should be noted that the list of vehicles under the vehicle recycling program presented above is not final. Manufacturers reserve the right to make changes to it as per model range, as well as the size of the discounts provided.

Please take the sociological survey!

Is it possible to buy a used car through a recycling program?

The question of whether it is possible to recycle a car and buy a used car never ceases to worry drivers. After all, new cars are expensive, and discounts for their purchase through the recycling program are small. Naturally, you want to turn your attention to a used car and buy it using financial assistance from the state.

But, alas, today used cars are not included in the program. The government only funds the purchase of new cars. This is understandable, because it thereby stimulates sales of domestic manufacturers. And they, in turn, increasing the number of cars sold, increase tax contributions to the budget, from which the recycling program is then financed. Why is not the circulation of cash flows in the nature of the state?

Therefore, it is impossible to buy a used car under the recycling program. We need to look for other ways to solve the problem. One way out could be an appeal. The presence of a certificate for a discount under the recycling program can be a strong argument in favor of making a positive decision to issue credit funds.

What else can you recommend to those who are wondering whether it is possible to buy a used car through a recycling program? Nowadays, many car dealers use the trade-in scheme, accepting old cars from clients and offering them used cars in exchange for an additional payment. What is the advantage of the proposed exchange for those who want to get rid of their old iron horse?

Firstly, the buyer purchasing a used car is guaranteed that everything is in order with its documents. And, secondly, dealers are responsible for the technical condition of the car they offer and can give a guarantee on it.

These are the options available today. And since you won’t be able to buy a used car through the recycling program, you should still think again about purchasing a new car. You can go to review your requirements for a car in the direction of choosing a cheaper make and model, consider different versions of bank loan offers, or, in the end, borrow the missing amount.

In 2020, it will be possible to purchase a car for recycling on even more favorable terms. Automotive industry support programs provided good results, which were appreciated by both car owners and dealers. The government not only left the opportunity to trade in an old car in exchange for a new one, but also introduced a number of pleasant additions for car owners.

Car recycling, which began in 2014, will continue in 2020. More than 200 billion rubles have been allocated for these purposes. Additional deductions and new ones are expected in the summer best conditions.

Now you can buy a car under the recycling program in two ways. The first involves receiving a discount for a vehicle being recycled. The second method is the Trade-in program, which allows you to exchange a used car for a new one with an additional payment.

Buying a car under a recycling program

Buying a car through a scrappage program has become even easier in 2020. Read the instructions for scrapping your car below.

With this option, you need to obtain a recycling certificate from the traffic police, it will give you the opportunity to get a discount on the car in the showroom. After this, you should provide the certificate to the dealer network and buy the car. Sellers must be subject to the terms and conditions of the program.

In order to hand over a car under the recycling program in 2020, you must contact the dealership chosen by the owner, provide there the scrapped vehicle and the following required documents:

Russian passport identifying the owner of the car;
vehicle passport;
certificate of deregistration of the vehicle with the traffic police with the note “due to its being sent for recycling.”

Buying a car using the Trade-IN program

Such a program for exchanging an old car for a new one may not be suitable for every car owner. Dealers set certain conditions and requirements. To register cars in 2020 under the Trade-in program you will need:

Owner's passport;
Certificate of deregistration or registration of a vehicle.

An appraisal examination can reduce the market value of a car by up to 50% due to the following indicators:

presentation;
make and model;
mileage;
period of use;
technical condition.

Age and mileage can significantly reduce the benefits that Trade-In offers. But the discount can be significant if the make and model of the car is currently in demand.

Choosing a car for recycling and its cost

According to the terms of the project, state program, the discount applies only to cars that were assembled on the territory of the Russian Federation. Foreign brands are also included in this category. Now there are more than 400 factories in Russia, where they assemble not only VAZ, GAZ and UAZ cars, but also Citroen, Nissan, Volkswagen, Renault and others. The full list of 33 titles can be seen.

The discount for the 2020 recycling program will depend on the chosen direction of the program and on the parameters of the used vehicle proposed for participation in it. Given the model of the new car, the price may change significantly or remain virtually the same.

General values discounts look like this:

For passenger car They will give you up to 60 thousand rubles.
They offer up to 120 thousand rubles for a minibus or SUV.
Light-duty trucks and buses will save up to 175 thousand rubles.
A heavy truck and bus will help reduce the price to 350 thousand rubles.

Some dealer networks add their own conditions, which makes the discount on some models even more profitable.

“LADA VESTA” can go to the new owner for 60 thousand cheaper. The campaign from VAZ “Time to part with NOT Vesta” will help with this.
“Audi A8” and “Audi Q5” can become more profitable by 80 and 150 thousand rubles. respectively.
The purchase of a BMW X6 will give you 60 thousand rubles.
Purchasing a Ford Fiesta will reduce the price to 93 thousand rubles.

The benefits of the program are obvious. It has excellent reviews from both car owners and sellers. Savings can reach up to 300 thousand rubles and more, or may have almost no effect on the price. But, to a greater extent, it all depends on the condition and parameters of the used car, on the model of the chosen car and on their compliance with each other.
