In the 2000s, the capital authorities tried to save the ZIL plant, but in the 2010s it was destroyed.
In 2002, the plant was headed by Konstantin Laptev, who planned to move dirty production outside Moscow and load peripheral enterprises.
In 2005, the Moscow government approved a program to reorganize the plant, the purpose of which was to improve the environment and load peripheral enterprises.
In 2010, the plant produced only 1,269 trucks.
In 2010, ZIL was showered with bankruptcy lawsuits, debts to creditors and non-payment of wages.
In 2011, a new supervisory board was elected, and the new management began reforming the outdated production.
The Moscow authorities prevented the bankruptcy of the plant, paid off debts and began production of cars.
It was planned to produce 2,000 cars in 2011 and 7,500 in 2012.
Options for cooperation with foreign manufacturers and the creation of an assembly plant were considered.
As a result, ZIL was unable to maintain its production and brand, and it was closed.
The bankruptcy was caused by both economic and political factors, such as the opening of markets for foreign brands and competition with used cars.
