KIEV, Dec. 8 – Ukraine's mothballed domestic new car market could never be resumed if a bill before parliament reducing excise duties for used cars is passed, the Bogdan Corporation said.

"With retaining of current excise duties we forecast a small rise on the new car market to 52,000 units, and the resumption of production could be seen in 2017," Bogdan spokesman Serhiy Krasulia said.
