It was expected that the implementation of this project the Government of Russia can provide a loan of 2.1 billion euros.[4][5] A year later, the parties decided to abandon this project and instead "Sollers" agreed to form a joint venture to produce cars with a Ford - Ford Sollers.[6] It is expected that by the American company in the joint venture will be made to the Russian trading arm of Ford Motor Rus and Vsevolozhsk plant, from the "Sollers" - production capacity.

April 27, 2012 "Sollers" and Mazda Motor Corporation signed an agreement to establish a 50:50 joint venture called Mazda-Sollers Manufacturing Rus(MSMR) in Vladivostok. The venture begun operations in the second half of 2012. The plant produces crossover Mazda CX-5, sedan Mazda6, as well as under other brands of cars. The production capacity of 50 thousand vehicles per year, and will be further increased to 70 thousand . annual.[9] In October 2016, Mazda signed an agreement with the Russian government to build engine production in Vladivostok.[10]

In September 2018, MSMR started producing engines at its newly built engine plant. The Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe attended at the opening ceremony of the plant.[11]

According to OICA statistics, Sollers produced 57,171 vehicles in 2015.[12]

In 2021, Sollers started to assemble a luxury car for civilian and presidential use at the Ford Sollers plant.
