On March 29, the winners of the “CAR OF THE YEAR IN RUSSIA 2012” titles were announced at Izvestia Hall in Moscow. This year, the ceremony presenting the country’s main automotive awards was organized by Eventum Premo’s event department and became one of the most anticipated and vibrant events in the country’s automotive market. This time, the “CAR OF THE YEAR IN RUSSIA” awards hall turned into a real Magic Box — a magical box with talking dolls, living statues, and wizards. The magic circus arena featured breathtaking aerialists, enchanting magicians, and… perfect cars! As they awaited their triumph, heads and senior representatives of automotive brands, business leaders, and film and show-business stars gathered at Moscow’s Izvestia Hall. More than 90 journalists from leading federal and regional publications came to enjoy the spectacular show and immerse themselves in the festive atmosphere. For the sixth consecutive year, Eventum Premo organized large-scale PR support for the country’s main automotive awards. Interest in the ceremony continues to grow: this year, 1,400,527 people across Russia took part in the voting. Everyone could choose a favorite from 375 models in 20 classes by voting on the awards website or through QIWI terminals.
