Almost everything is already known about the first-born of the new brand; its sales should start in the near future. But the rest of the models have just been outlined. According to preliminary data, the line will be expanded by the end of the year.
The presentation of the Oting brand from the Chinese company Sinomach Automobile took place in the Russian Federation at the end of last year. At the same time, they showed the first-born — the Paladin frame SUV (since February it was decided to write the model name in Cyrillic), that is, a slightly redesigned Nissan Terra produced by Zhengzhou Nissan, a joint venture between Nissan and Dongfeng. As part of last year's premiere, Sinomach Automobile promised two more models for the Russian market, without specifying which cars they would bring. So now there is a new announcement: under the Oting brand we will also sell a full-size SUV and a compact crossover. Upcoming new products have already been indicated on the Russian website of the brand, but their names, alas, are still not disclosed.
Recall that last year it was announced that the distribution agreement with the Zhengzhou Nissan JV was signed for a period of 5 years, and that two upcoming models will also be released “on the Nissan platform.” However, the plans could well be adjusted, and as a result, cars from another manufacturer (or manufacturers) will turn into Oting models.
As for the Paladin, almost everything is already known about him. In terms of its dimensions, this SUV is close to the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport or Haval H9: the length of the Oting model is 4882 mm, the wheelbase is 2850 mm, and the rated ground clearance is 215 mm. In Russia, the all-terrain vehicle will be available with a 2.0 petrol turbo-four from the Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi joint venture, which produces 228 hp. and 360 Nm, the engine is combined with a classic eight-speed ZF automatic transmission. The basic Paladin has rear-wheel drive, other versions are all-wheel drive (part-time with a rigid connection of the front axle), with a rear differential lock.

In Russia, the Oting Paladin will be offered with a five-seater cabin. Depending on the configuration, the list of equipment may include: a multimedia system with a vertical touchscreen, virtual tidy, adaptive cruise control, all-round cameras and a set of electronic assistants. The preliminary starting price is 3,790,000 rubles.
Paladin sales should start in the near future. They intend to introduce two other SUVs by the end of this year. According to the previously announced plans of Sinomach Automobile, in 2024 the dealer network of the Oting brand will include 60 enterprises, and another 30 showrooms are going to open next year.
