I’ll find out, I suppose. Or the next owner of the vehicle will.
Clearly at that price point one could assume they cut some corners. Manufacturing in low-wage Russia is one way to cut costs without, perhaps, having to cut corners.
My assumption is that Nokian’s low pricing is an initial way of gaining market share in a market that is mostly unfamiliar with the brand. Price rises could come with higher demand for the product.
Another assumption is that Finnish engineering and QA and oversight of their Russian mfg ops is superior to and more ethical than that seen in, say, your average Chinese tire factory (though I do admit that could be a false assumption).
