As reported by analysts of "Autoconsulting", in the first months of this year, not a single VIP-class car was sold in Ukraine. Car dealership sellers are worried about the safety of their property and are massively suspending operations, explaining this by renovations, and are trying to strengthen their show windows by covering them with plywood.

A large Mercedes-Benz dealership center, located near Lva Tolstoho Square, has ceased operations "until better times", and its show windows are now closed with sheets of plywood. Customers are being redirected to the showroom on Stolychnе Shose.

Other dealers are acting similarly, moving their sales points closer to the outskirts of Kyiv. The representative offices of Ferrari, Bentley, and Lamborghini are also considering closure. Currently, they operate only nominally, as their entrance doors are locked.
