Expert say the economy of Ukraine has emerged from the crisis. One of the factors which can prove their opinion is the growth of car sales for the Ukrainians. In January 2012 the Ukrainians bought 12281 motor cars which is 24% more than over the previous year (only new cars are taken into consideration), as it has been reported by the press-service of Ukravtoprom Association. But this number of cars sold is lower than in December 2011 – at that time there were sold 25000 cars (it was a record of post-crisis car sales – Author). Such decrease in comparison with December figures is based on the fact that in January people traditionally prefer spending money on their holidays and vacations but not on cars. The leader of January is South Korean Hyundai (9,5% or more than 1200 cars) which left behind Russian VAZ (about 1100 cars) with its second place. The third place is occupied by ZAZ: 993 cars were sold, almost 80% of them – Lanos cars.
