My main issue would be fixing stuff if it breaks. Toyota dealer's got you. With this thing after a few years good luck, unless they have built it on a bunch of standard parts from a Japanese or German manufacturer or something.

The site states it has an EB2ADTS engine. That's a PSA group engine used in a bunch of cars such as the Peugeot 3008. So support/parts would be be pretty easy to obtain.
But I don't think it uses PSA's EMP2 platform. Wikipedia says this car is a modified Tagaz Aquila.
You're right! And MPM is "Mikhail Paramonov Manufacturing"... they've stuck a lot of French flags on their website, but it's a russian design
EDIT: something very fishy going on... https://en.crimerussia.com/oligarchs/versailles-mansion-of-t...

the design is 100% Korean, the first project was produced at the Ukrainian border for 4 months in factories rented to the Tagaz group, then the group closed and the project was forgotten until we bought back the rights
