Soviets Plan Auto Production Hike

John Weyland reports from Moscow that the five year plan aims to raise Soviet auto production from 200000 to 800000 annually, build two new plants, introduce a small Zima model, remodel existing cars, and cut prices from four times Western levels while signaling a shift toward Western style life. Brezhnev and Kosygin back private cars as demand rises, despite Khrushchev’s earlier caution, amid longer waits and high prices for Moskvich and Volga models.

Opponents called it special interest legislation but Anzelmo argued broader issues cannot be solved immediately.
