According to the National Statistics Bureau, almost 114,000 vehicles of all types have been manufactured in Kazakhstan since the beginning of 2022. The leader was the Kostanai region, with over 70,000 cars produced there. The car factory in Almaty increased production to 37,205 units.

Analysts predict that this year the Kazakh car industry will continue to expand production capacity, increasing the localization of the output.
