А4. Project Description:Within the limits of realization of the planned investment project creation of new manufacture on assembly of cars in a class of the small-displacement cars, differing is provided by the economic fuel consumption having a consumer demand and competitive advantages in the market. It is offered two variants of realization of the project: - Allocation under construction of a factory of the separate ground area in the area of Experimental plant Neman in Lida, Zhukov str. - Creation of joint venture on the basis of available free areas of RUE «Optic» in Lida, Masherov str. 10. Appeal of creation of manufacture on assembly of cars in territory of Lidas area, is caused, first of all, by a favourable geographical position and developed industrial infrastructure of area. Lidas area is on a crossroads of the major automobile, railways and airlines ways. Station Lida of the Belarus railway will take to transportation cargoes in the intrarepublican, international, direct and commixed means of communication. In territory of area there is an airport, capable to accept supersize planes. In city the sphere of mechanical engineering is developed. Lidas enterprises make buses, combines, agricultural machinery. The powerful factory on release of a paint, varnishes, components of plastic successfully works. The personnel potential of region allows to satisfy all needs of any future manufacture for experts and workers. There is a technical college in town and 3 schools on preparation of the basic industrial personnel in sphere metal and wood processing, mechanical engineering, optics, glassmaking, car-care center, etc. А4a. Project cost (mln USD): A5. Background/history/overall programme/related or similar projects:One of priority directions of development of economy of Republic of Belarus is the mechanical engineering. Production of the given branch: MAZ, BelAZ, MoAZ. MZKT, MTZ are world renowned. Alongside with manufacture of cars, strong enough development have received in Republic of branch and enterprises providing the basic assembly manufacture by accessories and spare parts (the Belarus tires, engines, hydraulic boosters and drive gears, electrotechnical devices, chemical materials, products from plastic, paint and varnish materials, etc.).] Unfortunately, manufacture of cars only has started to develop in Belarus, but it has the most mass development and greater rates of growth of a consumer demand. In the year 2006. in the joint venture of Joint-Stock Company «Unison» assembly of Iranian cars «Samand» has begun. Prepares two versions of car «Samand» - standard and lux-version with engine «Peugeot» in volume of 1,8 liters and capacity of 100 horsepower’s. Cost of the car is made with 12 thousand US dollar. In Belarus in 2007 is planned to produce on a home market 2 thousand passenger Iranian cars of the Belarus assembly. Signed in February, 2007 between Joint-Stock Company «Unison» and holding «Iran Hodro» the agreement assumes, that by 2014 60 thousand cars a year should make volume of manufacture. At the same time in Belarus the organization of assembly of Chinese cars «Hafei» is planned. Company «Union Motors» plans to realize the given project. Midget car model Brio will be assembled in republic. At the first stage cars will assemble from import accessories. Further enterprise is measured to receive certificate ST1 which means, that assembled cars have the Belarus origin that will allow to export them on the Russian market. For this purpose it is planned to organize in Belarus a line of welding and painting of car bodies. In creation of the given line the Chinese party is ready to invest $50-70 mill***
