Belarusian Prime Minister Aleksandr Turchin has visited the new bus production facility of the Minsk Automobile Plant (MAZ). In March 2025, the construction of a new production building for the bus plant was completed at the Minsk Automobile Plant. The first bus was manufactured here on 31 March, with industrial production of passenger vehicles commencing in April. The commissioning of the new workshops proceeded ahead of schedule and was completed 10 months earlier than planned. The new building, with an area of over 40,000 square meters, includes a bus welding, painting, and assembly shop, as well as a welding, blanking, and mechanical processing shop. Until 2027, the new plant will simultaneously produce both 2nd and 3rd generation buses, after which the enterprise will fully transition to manufacturing 3rd generation buses from 2027 onward.
