The prototype of the first car of the KamAZ plant was the ZIL-170 truck with a diesel engine, designed to transport goods in all climatic zones. In this regard reported Mikhail Kolodochkin, expert of the magazine “Behind the Wheel”.
The most modern truck has been designed at ZIL since 1967. The three-axle vehicle received a 210 hp diesel engine, a gearbox with a divider, diskless wheels and a cross-axle differential lock. The ZIL-170 also had power steering and a pneumatic hydraulic clutch. The modern truck did not fit on the ZIL conveyor – its production was established at the new KamAZ plant built in Naberezhnye Chelny.
“It is interesting that even the index “5320” was initially assigned to ZIL, although the car was to be produced at KamAZ for a long time. And the Moscow plant, as you know, was eventually destroyed,” Kolodochkin concluded.
It was previously known that the Exlantix ES sedan will take hybrid version.
