Having entered Kazakhstan’s market in 2021, Chinese brand HAVAL is gaining ground among both individual car lovers and major companies.

Astana Motors Finance has approved yet another application under a financial lease agreement: Haval F7 smart SUVs will join the corporate car fleet of GALANZ bottlers, a leading soft-drink maker in Kazakhstan.

Haval F7 started to win the global market in 2018, first, thanks to the high safety standards and smart driver assistance systems: automatic parking, 360° around view camera system, smart all-wheel drive and crossroad collision avoidance system. The model’s capacity, reliability and off-road performance and the brand’s warranty terms are also top-level. That is why, Astana Motors Finance ranks Haval among the top five cars recommended for lease.

«We are grateful to our partners, Haval Almaty and Astana Motors Finance, for both the prompt consideration of the financial lease application and the fine selection of a car as per the company’s request and needs. We ordered the cars for our regional directors, each supervising several regions, and their work involves regular travelling. Haval SUVs meet these needs perfectly,” Arslan Jumabayev, Commercial Director at GALANZ bottlers, commented on the transaction.

Astana Motors Finance renders financial and operating lease services for all the car brands represented by Astana Motors but is focused on average price cars where the price, quality and status are delicately balanced. Signed in 2021, the agreement with Great Wall Motor of China, the owner of the Haval brand, is an important step towards the expansion of the range of cars available both for direct purchase by individuals and through financial lease for corporate clients via Astana Motors Finance.
«Haval cars have now become recognizable in Kazakhstan and are of much interest to car lovers. We try to meet the growing demand and expand the range of models represented in our dealerships,” Akylbek Anarbayev, Director of Haval Motor Kazakhstan, noted.

Lease is currently one of the most popular and profitable tools to update the car fleet, which enables not to take money out of circulation, with a minimum initial investment.

Arman Japakov, Director of Astana Motors Finance: «We have been on the lease services market since 2004, so we know that the effective cooperation is made up of many components. These are the quality of services provided, consistency and favorable terms. For example, we have been working with GALANZ bottlers for more than 10 years, with over 50 vehicles being financed under financial lease agreements during this time, and they trust our recommendations by 100%. I think this percentage will be even higher after the purchase of Haval cars.

Haval Motor Kazakhstan, the official distributor, is also confident in the successful future of F7 models and other brand cars. Haval has been leading the sales of off-road vehicles for about 10 years in both China and the CIS. Haval smart SUVs are a really good solution for business!
