Have a good read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lada :-D
Especially the earlier models were quite "popular", even though the terrible build quality, but they were dead cheap. These days they can't keep up anymore against the Chinese cheap cars, which, although Lada has increased in quality, the Chinese are still better :-)
But yeah, capitalism does have it advantages over communism :-D lol!
