Lada VFTS

For years motorsport has been a great outlet for advertising. Soviet Union’s planned economy was no exception. Wishing to sell their relatively outdated products in a capitalistic world, the socialistic economy had to follow the 4P law – product, price, place and promotion. Lada , one of Soviet Union’s most sold car brands, used the European and World Rally Championships for successful marketing.
