Deficiencies in car tires in Greece – “Launch” of their price
The Great is the economic type of war in Ukraine that is in full swing in the last month, with problems located in many sectors of industry. This, as we all know and experience, has led to price increases on many goods but also large shortages of products of various kinds.
In the automotive sector now, in the current situation with the reduced global production of semiconductors – microchips, two more important issues are added. One of them is related to nickel from Ukraine and used to make cables in electric cars and the other with soot (or otherwise carbon black) exported from Russia and addressed to tire companies.
So, as he had noted carandmotor.grafter the embargo on Russia, European tire companies in Europe seem to be facing an unprecedented shortage of carbon black, compared to the current demand (note that the 1/3 of carbon used to produce tires on European soil comes from Russia).
The first significant shortages in tires have already appeared in our country, according to our information, which seems relatively large, especially for vehicles with high horsepower or large SUVs. In fact, in these cases, the answer that many receive is almost the same and so it is suggested to order the products with the unknown delivery date.
At the same time, large increases are observed in more popular tire dimensions, where the placement of a quad, by a well-known manufacturer, can now even reach 450 euros! Products from Asian-based companies clearly show a better picture, where sales and costing seem to be holding – at the moment – at reasonable levels. Be that as it may, given that the war between Russia and Ukraine seems to have an invisible end in sight, the problem of shortage of tires and large increases in their prices will continue in the future.
