Deliveries of domestic anti-lock braking systems (ABS) will begin on July 1. About it told Deputy Head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Vasily Shpak RIA Novosti.

The first domestic production of ABS will be launched in Kostroma, Shpak added. From July 1, it is planned to begin serial deliveries to Russian automakers.

Russia has already managed to replace imports of electronic control units, harness products, and also partially sensors for the automotive industry. The plans will continue to localize the missing electronic architecture, the deputy minister added.

In May 2022, the government allowed the production of cars with lower environmental and safety standards, in particular, manufacturers were exempted from the requirement to equip cars with ABS, airbags and dynamic stabilization system (ESP).

On June 1, the government extended the simplified technical regulation until February 1, 2024 with the gradual cancellation of previously introduced mitigations. According to the document, from December 1, 2023, the equipment of ABS vehicles will again become mandatory.
