Experts from the service for buying and selling cars online SberAvto and the audio service SberZvuk conducted a survey among Russian car enthusiasts and found that 32% of them immediately after buying a new car include rock songs in it to assess the quality of the music system.
As stated in a press release received on February 18 by the editors of Izvestia, 96% of respondents usually listen to music in the car, 83% of them every day. Only 7% of survey participants answered that they preferred to spend the first trip in a new car in silence.
Many owners of a new car (21%), in addition to listening to rock songs, maintained a good mood after buying energetic pop music, and 17% of respondents preferred their favorite radio station.
Almost a third of the respondents (32% and 31%, respectively) admitted that during the first trip they felt joy and even pride from the realization of a dream. Many respondents were inspired when they started planning road trips (28%) and were looking forward to showing their new clothes to their relatives and friends (20%). Although about a quarter (26%) of drivers, the purchase could not distract from thoughts about maintenance costs, and 27%, along with joy, also felt excitement, because owning a car is also a responsibility. 5% were a little worried that the new car would break down or have an accident (multiple choice was available in the question).
On January 19, SberAvto experts conducted a survey among Russians and learned about the most anticipated new cars in 2022. The most anticipated premiere was the fifth-generation Kia Sportage crossover, sales of which will begin in the first half of 2022. This model was named by 15% of respondents.
