In 2013-2015 Mr Salar headed the design team at Renault Samsung Motors in Korea, in 2008-2013 worked in position of studio chief designer in charge of the Renault Design Center Mumbai in India.
Mr Caracatzanis stated: Steve has successfully led the team at LADA Design. He has been fully engaged in the LADA design renewal for 9 years and is a key contributor to the strong renewal of the LADA model line-up. I thank him for these major achievements and I am happy that Steve has accepted my proposal to continue his relationship with AVTOVAZ as my advisor. I wish Mr Salar all the best in the new position and count on his strong contribution in implementation of the LADA ambitious product plan.
