Mazda
Mazda builds cars in China at the Changan Mazda plants, so a new Mazda bought in Moscow, in a rich trim level, can come at Chinese-market pricing. If you'd rather buy a used Mazda in Moscow, we'll find a fresh unit and check its history before the purchase. In both cases we pick versions up to 160 hp — the recycling fee stays at the discounted rate, and the turnkey price is known upfront. We handle delivery, customs clearance and paperwork ourselves, so buying a Mazda in Moscow and the Moscow Region comes without extra hassle.

Why a Mazda from China is a good deal
Direct import removes unnecessary middleman markups and gives access to versions that aren't sold on the Russian market.
Lower price
The car is bought at the exporting country's domestic-market price, not at a reseller's markup.
Richer trim levels
Chinese and Korean Mazda versions are often better equipped than base Russian-market trims: infotainment, cameras, adaptive cruise control, i-Activsense safety packages.
Transparency
The duty, customs fee and recycling fee are known in advance — no "surprises" at the border or at the dealership.
Buying a Mazda in Moscow to order, turnkey
Today the easiest way to buy a Mazda in Moscow is to order it: since 2022 Mazda has not officially supplied new cars to Russia, and resellers' prices are often inflated. AutoSHTAB helps you buy a Mazda in Moscow and the Moscow Region directly — from China, Korea, the UAE and Europe. We handle sourcing, inspection, purchase, delivery, customs clearance and registration. Both new and used Mazda cars are available. We calculate the price, customs payments, delivery cost and the final turnkey amount in advance — everything is fixed in the contract.

Mazda: buying a new car or a used one in Moscow in 2026
If you want to buy a Mazda, Moscow and the Moscow Region are the main region where we hand over cars, but we also deliver to other Russian cities. Buying a new Mazda in Moscow works in two ways: order a car from China's domestic market (Changan Mazda), or find a low-mileage unit in Korea or the UAE. To buy a used Mazda in Moscow, we check the history, mileage and technical condition before the purchase.
A turnkey Mazda purchase with AutoSHTAB looks like this: sourcing → on-site inspection → purchase → delivery → customs clearance → conformity certification (SBKTS) and e-title (EPTS) → registration with the traffic police. The timeline averages 30 to 60 days. We work under a contract with a fixed budget, and every deal has a dedicated manager.
We regularly get requests like: "I want a used Mazda, Moscow region, this budget — what's available?" For a request like that we send 3–5 real options with a turnkey price calculation, not just links to listings.
Why buying a Mazda from China pays off
Buying a Mazda from China in Moscow is one of the most rational options in 2026. Mazda builds cars in China at the Changan Mazda joint venture, and many models are cheaper there than on other markets.
- Lower price. The turnkey savings on popular models can run to hundreds of thousands of rubles compared to reseller offers.
- Build quality. The plants work to Mazda's standards, on the same platforms and with the same Skyactiv engines.
- Fresh models. China has the latest crossover generations and new electric models available.
- Up to 160 hp. Many Chinese versions run a 2.0-litre engine rated around 155–158 hp — they qualify for the discounted recycling fee.
- Established logistics. Delivery routes from China to Moscow run reliably and predictably.
That's why many clients phrase their request exactly this way: a car to order in Moscow, Mazda, built in China, engine under 160 hp.
Which Mazda models and body styles we import
Through us you can buy virtually any Mazda version available on foreign markets. We confirm the exact model and trim list at the sourcing stage.
Crossovers: Mazda CX-5, CX-50, CX-30
Mazda CX-5 is the most in-demand model. The 2.0-litre versions usually stay under the 160 hp threshold. The CX-50 is a larger, more rugged crossover popular in China. The CX-30 is a compact city option. If you've decided to buy a Mazda in Moscow for the family, the choice usually comes down to the CX-5 or the CX-50.
Mazda3 sedans and hatchbacks
The Mazda3 (badged Axela in China) comes as a sedan and a hatchback with 1.5 and 2.0-litre engines. When a client writes "I want a Mazda in Moscow, hatchback, inexpensive," we first look at the Mazda3 with the 1.5 or 2.0-litre engine — both versions qualify for the discounted recycling fee.
Electric Mazda EZ-6 and EZ-60
Changan Mazda builds electric and hybrid models with extended range — the EZ-6 sedan and the EZ-60 crossover. For electric cars we run a separate calculation: VAT rules and the duty rate differ for them.
All-wheel-drive Mazda
You can buy an all-wheel-drive Mazda in Moscow, but power output matters. On Chinese-market CX-5 and CX-50, all-wheel drive is more often paired with the 2.5-litre engine rated above 160 hp, which means the recycling fee is calculated at the commercial rate. We'll show the price difference upfront and offer alternatives — for example, all-wheel-drive versions under 160 hp on the used market of other countries.
Manual-transmission Mazda
Buying a manual-transmission Mazda in Moscow is harder: on the Chinese market Mazda is sold almost exclusively with an automatic. We look for manual models among used cars on other markets — mainly compact Mazda models with smaller engines.

Which countries we import Mazda from
The choice of country depends on your budget, the model you need, and whether you want a new car or a used one.
| Country | What's worth importing | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| China | New and fresh CX-5, CX-50, CX-30, Mazda3, EZ-6, EZ-60 | Wide choice of under-160-hp versions, the 180-day rule |
| South Korea | Used Mazda in good condition | Transparent insurance history, export limits on engine size and price |
| UAE | CX-5, CX-9, CX-90 and other crossovers | No corrosion, but many versions exceed 160 hp |
| Europe | Compact used Mazda2, Mazda3, CX-3 | Export limits on engine size and price, manual versions available |
China remains the best fit for most clients: it's the easiest place to find a new Mazda under 160 hp in a rich trim level. Korea and Europe are worth considering if you need a used car or a manual transmission, and the UAE if a large crossover matters and you're ready for the commercial recycling fee.
Mazda under 160 hp — why it's the most cost-effective choice
The main price factor when importing in 2026 is engine power. It's what determines the size of the recycling fee. As of December 1, 2025, the discounted recycling fee for individuals remains only for cars up to 160 hp imported for personal use.
| Power / age | Recycling fee for an individual (personal use) |
|---|---|
| Up to 160 hp, under 3 years old | ~₽3,400 (discounted rate) |
| Up to 160 hp, over 3 years old | ~₽5,200 (discounted rate) |
| Over 160 hp | Commercial rate — hundreds of thousands of rubles |
The same Mazda CX-5 with a 2.5-litre engine instead of a 2.0-litre one can add hundreds of thousands of rubles on the recycling fee alone. That's why, if the goal is buying a new Mazda in Moscow with minimum payments, most clients choose versions up to 160 hp.
Important: the discount applies when the car is imported for personal use, no more than one per person per year, and is not resold within a year of import.
Mazda customs clearance: which payments are required
When importing a Mazda, an individual pays three mandatory charges:
- Customs duty — at a unified rate. It depends on engine size, age and the car's value. For cars with a combustion engine, VAT and excise duty aren't paid separately — they're already included in the unified rate.
- Customs clearance fee — a fixed amount on a sliding scale, depending on the car's value.
- Recycling fee — discounted for cars up to 160 hp, or commercial for more powerful ones.
Which age is more cost-effective? "Sweet spot" cars aged 3 to 5 years are optimal: their duty rate is lower than for new cars and cars over 5 years old. Worth keeping in mind if you're planning to buy a used Mazda in Moscow.
The 180-day rule. As of January 1, 2026, individuals can only export cars from China that have been registered there for at least 180 days. We check this at the sourcing stage — before you put down any money.
Mazda in Moscow: buying at a clear price — what it's made of
When a client searches for "Mazda Moscow price," listings usually show figures that don't account for customs clearance and paperwork. We calculate differently — the final amount upfront:
car price abroad + delivery + duty + customs fee + recycling fee + paperwork = price in hand
| Cost item | What it depends on |
|---|---|
| Invoice price | Model, trim, year, mileage, exchange rate |
| Delivery | Route: car carrier or sea freight |
| Customs duty | Engine size, age, value |
| Customs fee | Car's value |
| Recycling fee | Power above or below 160 hp, age |
| SBKTS, EPTS, registration | Fixed services |

How to buy a Mazda turnkey: the process
A turnkey import means a single company is responsible for the whole process, from sourcing to license plates. If you've decided "I'll buy a Mazda in Moscow through AutoSHTAB," the process looks like this:
- Sourcing. We define the model for your budget and task, check the 160 hp threshold and the 180-day rule.
- On-site inspection. A specialist inspects the car, checks its history, mileage and technical condition.
- Purchase and invoice payment. A secure deal with a verified supplier.
- Delivery to Russia. By car carrier or sea, the cargo insured the whole way.
- Customs clearance. Filing the declaration, paying the duty, fee and recycling fee.
- SBKTS and EPTS. Passing the conformity lab, issuing the electronic title.
- Registration with the traffic police. You receive the finished Mazda with documents and plates.
At every stage you see the deal's status and get reports from your dedicated manager.
Mazda delivery times to Moscow
The average is 30 to 60 days from purchase to handover. The exact time depends on the country, route and border workload.
| Route | Approximate time |
|---|---|
| China: car carrier via Zabaikalsk / Ussuriysk | 10–14 days in transit |
| China / Korea: sea freight via Vladivostok | 2–4 weeks |
| Total, "seller to client" | ~30–60 days |
Peak seasons and Chinese New Year can add 1–2 weeks of delay.
