in Vsevolozhsk, Russia, April 9, 2015. Andrey Rudakov | Bloomberg | Getty Images Ford Motor said on Wednesday it would exit Russia, the latest automaker to leave in the aftermath of


Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Mercedes-Benz also on Wednesday said it would withdraw from the Russian market and sell shares in its industrial and financial services subsidiaries to a


local investor. Ford said it has finalized a deal to sell its 49% stake in the Russia-based Sollers Ford joint venture for a "nominal" undisclosed price. The U.S. automaker took a


$122 million writedown connected to its suspension of Russian operations earlier this year but will not take additional writedowns in connection with Wednesday's announcement, the


company said. "Ford shares will be transferred to the Joint Venture for a nominal value," the company said, adding that it retains the option to buy them back within a 5-year


period "should the global situation change." Ford sold around 20,000 vehicles in Russia in 2021, according to analyst estimates. It announced a suspension of its operations in


Russia in March. Ford in 2019 said the joint venture was closing two assembly plants and an engine factory in Russia, exiting the country's passenger vehicle market. Ford restructured


its investment in Russia in 2019 and ceded control the venture to Sollers. Ford follows U.S. companies including Cisco Systems and Nike in announcing an exit from Russia, after Western


countries imposed sanctions on Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine, making it nearly impossible for manufacturers to do business there.
