VAZInterServices was founded in 1991 to produce parts for Lada cars and a pick-up truck based on them.[2] In 2003, the company became part of the SOK Group.[3] In 2008, the Russian government took control of VAZInterServices and other SOK Group assets by force.[4] In 2010, the control of VAZInterServices was transferred from AvtoVAZ to United Automotive Technologies, a holding company focused on supplying other manufacturers,[5] after it acquired a majority of SOK Group's VIS-Trust group, which included VAZInterServices. In 2011, AvtoVAZ bought VAZInterServices' vehicle manufacturing division. By 2013, it mostly finished the process of merging PSA Bronto into VAZInterServices, renaming it VIS-AVTO.[6]
From October 2014 to April 2015, VIS-AVTO assembled the Lada Niva Urban for its parent AvtoVAZ.[7] In 2021, it began producing a Bronto-badged Lada Niva Legend.[8] VIS-AVTO and AvtoVAZ partnered on production, with the former taking charge of main assembly and the latter of welding and painting.[9]
VIS operates as a supplier of auto parts, mainly for AvtoVAZ.[10] As of 2018[update], it is one of the nine companies of the United Automotive Technologies group.[11]
Operations
[edit]Since starting operations in 1991, VIS-AVTO has produced commercial vehicles (pickup trucks and vans) based on the Lada 2105 and Lada 2107 (VIS-2345, VIS-23452, VIS-23454, VIS-234500-30); Lada Samara (VIS-1705, VIS-1706, VIS-2347, VIS-23472); others. As of 2021[update], it produces commercial vehicles of up to 720 kilogrames payload based on the Lada Granta and Lada Largus, as well as Bronto-badged variants of the Lada Niva. Its Tolyatti plant has buildings covering 9,440 m2 and can modify about 3,500 vehicles per year.[12]
VIS also has a plant in Tolyatti. As of March 2016[update], it had 971 employees.[10]
