New GAZ models

Photos of cars can be seen in the article, but first you need to talk about their technical characteristics.

Gazelle "Business". The minibus produced in 2016 is an excellent commercial vehicle. It does not require careful care and attention, only regular maintenance. The minibus is functional and comfortable. Moreover, its exterior has pleasant shades. The body has received a demanding shape. Drivers may be interested in one of the car modifications. It is used, as a rule, for the carriage of passengers, that is, as public transport... The salon can comfortably accommodate about 12 people. Works in the car heating system, which certainly will not let anyone freeze in winter period... The machine is equipped with several types of engines. One of them is designed for 2.4 liters, maximum power- 133 l. with. The second one has a volume of 2.9 liters, traction force - 106 "horses". Mechanical transmission.
New model of GAZ "Volga". A photo of the 5000 GL can be seen below. The appearance has specific notes that every motorist will surely like. The car received a slightly lowered roof. The manufacturer has created such an attractive vehicle, which can be taken for racing car than a family one. However, although it was presented back in 2012, to this day there is no news of its release.
What will help to evaluate the new GAZ models externally? Photo! Passenger cars or trucks- which ones are in great demand? It is impossible to immediately answer this question, since it is necessary to build on the purpose. For example, a car with an index of 3308 has long been of interest to commercial firms. He is not only pleasant in appearance, but also possesses good characteristics... With ease, this car carries up to 4.5 tons of cargo. Under the hood is an engine with a capacity of 117 hp. with. It is paired with a manual transmission. It has 5 steps. The maximum speed is 95 km / h. The cabin can accommodate three people, including the driver.

Brake system domestic, it functions as accurately as possible and there are no failures.
New "GAZon Next". One of the famous modifications of this model was released as a result of an order from Vladimir Putin in 2014. Comfort, convenience, functionality - everything is at the best level, so drivers immediately became interested in the new model domestic manufacturer... In the modern generation, the car has received updated move, engine, transmission, control, interior. The braking system has also been improved. The motor complies with Euro-4 standards. The cabin is three-seater. According to reviews, we can say that the engine never stalls in the cold. It works stably, there are no complaints.

In conclusion, I would like to say that GAZ is the most successful automotive manufacturer... He has long earned both the trust and respect of the domestic buyer. And most importantly, the price and quality have an optimal ratio.

Volga is a car that has become, without exaggeration, a symbol of an entire era. Millions dreamed of becoming the owner of the Volga, because for almost half a century, the car personified advanced engineering thought and occupied the leading positions of the domestic car industry.

With the arrival of numerous European and Asian brands on the Russian market, the popularity of the brainchild of the Gorky Automobile Plant plummeted. The future of the Volga, like the entire domestic auto industry, seemed vague and uncertain. But the best engineers and designers took up the revival of the brand, the result of whose work will be new Volga 5000 GL, which they promise to present to the public by the end of 2018.

The first information that Russian company GAZ Group plans to surprise the world with a powerful, stylish and completely different from all previous car models, appeared back in 2011. Almost 7 years have passed since then. Several presentations of the prototype took place, but until 2018 it was not announced when the new model of the Volga car, the photos of which are of great interest, will still go into mass production.

We bring to your attention several interesting facts about the GL 5000 prototype:

The design of the car is unique and does not copy any previously produced car.
Specialists from large Chinese companies were involved in the creation of the new Volga.
The only real concept, the VolgaGL 5000, was flawed.

So what awaits the future owners of the novelty, the price of which, according to information leaked into the network, could soar to the cost of luxury models from companies such as Mercedes? What car is the largest Russian manufacturer planning to offer connoisseurs of fast and comfortable Western cars?

Exterior of the new Volga

From 2011 to 2018, the new Volga changed its appearance several times, as evidenced by photos from the network, in which the 5000 GL model has a number of significant differences. After the presentation of the prototype, the situation became clear.

The 2018 Volga will have a sporty design with an aggressive masculine touch. Streamlined shape combined with large wheel rims gives some futurism to the image, hinting that the new car has nothing in common with its outdated predecessors.

At the first meeting, the main attention is paid to:

lack of angular elements;
massive front bumper;
low roof;
narrow elongated headlights;
effective solution to the design of the rear lights.

Externally, the design of the car turned out to be modern, which, as planned by the manufacturers, should emphasize the dynamism of the new car. But despite the sporty style and increased diameter wheel rims, Volga will remain a city car, not ready for realities Russian roads located outside of large metropolitan areas.

The interior of the novelty

Although the new Volga, expected in 2018 or 2019, already exists in the form of a prototype, it is still impossible to find a real photo of the salon. The pictures presented on some sites as the interior of the novelty cause great doubt. The external showiness and innovation of the car is in no way combined with the outdated models of radio tape recorders, wooden panels and analog devices presented on them.

Apparently, smooth lines will prevail in the interior design, as well as in the exterior of the model. There is information that when creating the interior for the new Volga, the designers started from the idea implemented in the Chevrolet Volt.

The 2018 Volga shown in the photo will be able to accommodate 5 people in the cabin. At the same time, judging by the design of the car, there will be enough space for both the driver and the person sitting next to him, and for the passengers of the second row. One of the indisputable advantages of the novelty should be a spacious trunk.

Since the expected novelty will be positioned as a premium car, you can expect luxurious leather upholstery, ergonomic seats with lateral support and a modern climate system.

Of the shortcomings of the model, obvious at first consideration, we can note low visibility due to the small area of the side glazing and the small size of the rear-view mirrors. Although, it is quite possible that all these minor flaws can be fully replaced by a modern monitor and camera system, as on many cars, which are expected to be released in 2018.

Specifications

The fact that the design of the car was revised several times suggests that the declared equipment may turn out to be far from the final option.

At the moment it is known that the previously presented prototype of the Volga GL 5000 was equipped with gasoline engine with a volume of 3.2 liters and a capacity of up to 300 hp. According to experts, the most likely addition to such a power unit will be a 6-band manual gearbox or 4-speed automatic transmission.

Some sources contain information about independent suspension and all-wheel drive. But, in the presented prototype, there was nothing like this. And is it necessary four-wheel drive on a city car? The question remains open.

For the rest, the novelty can please with such technical solutions as:

electric power steering with several operating modes;
disc brakes on all 4 wheels;
intelligent driver assistance systems;
sports suspension;
active and passive safety systems.

It can be assumed that if in the near future the Volga is not put into production in its current version, it will be able to combine classic gasoline and innovative electric motors.

The price of new items in the Russian market

Many sources emphasize that the new model shown in the photo Russian car The Volga, codenamed GL 5000, will be positioned as an elite car, which means its price will be appropriate.

Depending on the configuration and interior design, the cost of the novelty can presumably vary from 4 to 7.5 million rubles. Of course, various factors can affect the final price of a car. It will be possible to speak more specifically about the final amount only after the car is put into production and the first serial Volga of the new generation comes off the assembly line.

(GAZ) is currently the largest enterprise in the Russian automotive industry, which is part of the GAZ Group automobile holding. Produces the widest range trucks, special equipment, auto components.

Resolution of the Presidium of the Supreme Council National economy(VSNKh) of the USSR on the construction of a large automobile plant near Nizhny Novgorod was adopted on April 6, 1929. On May 31, the Supreme Council of the National Economy of the USSR concluded with the American by Ford Motor Company agreement on technical assistance in organizing and establishing mass production passenger cars type Ford-A and trucks like Ford-AA.

The technological and construction design of the car plant was carried out in the United States mainly by the forces of Soviet engineers in close cooperation with the Ford Motor Company. The architectural and construction project was developed by Austin & K.

May 2, 1930 under Nizhny Novgorod the foundation stone of the future automobile plant was laid, and by November 1, 1931, construction was largely completed. The car plant received the best domestic equipment and machine tools, presses, machines from the USA and European countries (Germany, England, Italy, France) at that time. For the launch of the first stage, 4.5 thousand different units, eight thousand electric motors were installed.

In 1994 the plant began production of new light commercial vehicles GAZ-3302 GAZelle, in 2010 - the modernized GAZelle-BUSINESS vehicle.

In 2011, a new line of Ermak agricultural vehicles was developed at the plant. In 2013, the production of cars of the new NEXT family began with the release of a light commercial vehicle "GAZelle NEXT". Based on the basic model, by 2016 a full line of commercial vehicles with a gross weight of 2.8 to 5.0 tons was created.

Over the years of work, car plants have developed more than 40 basic models trucks and cars, as well as military and special vehicles and buses, hundreds of their modifications and experimental designs. The plant has produced over 18 million cars and trucks.

Gorky Automobile Plant today - the key enterprise of the GAZ Group - produces light and medium-duty commercial vehicles (minibuses, vans and combi vans, chassis, onboard cars), over 300 types of special equipment, as well as auto components (PowerTrain systems, control systems, body elements, tooling, forging parts, iron and non-ferrous casting). Most Popular car brands plant - "GAZelle", "Sobol", "Valdai" and "Sadko".

In addition to developing and releasing our own lineup cars, GAZ cooperates with international car manufacturers Volkswagen and Daimler. Since 2013, GAZ has been producing Škoda Yeti cars in the contract assembly mode, Volkswagen Jetta and Škoda Octavia as well as commercial Mercedes-Benz cars Sprinter.

The company's products are sold in Russia, CIS countries and far abroad. Share of GAZ on Russian market light commercial vehicles - about 50%, in the segment medium-duty trucks- about 70%.

The material was prepared on the basis of information from RIA Novosti and open sources

It has a rich history; for more than 80 years of its existence, a huge number of different cars... The lineup includes both trucks and cars. Some GAZ models have become legends of the Soviet and Russian car industry, and the serial production of some brands is estimated at millions of copies.

The appearance of the legend of the Soviet car industry Volga GAZ 21

Since 1959, the first one, which laid the foundation for a series of passenger cars, has left the factory assembly line. GAZ 51 also had many followers, there are even whole generations in this category. By the way, the new generation of trucks continues, but the Volgas have already ceased to exist.

There are also SUVs in the GAZ model range.

Modification of the first Soviet SUV GAZ 67B

Basically, they were built on the basis of trucks (GAZ 66, GAZ 63, GAZ 3308 "Sadko"), but still Gorky residents produced passenger cars off-road, among them the legendary. In the future, the residents of Nizhny Novgorod did not engage in the development of such brands - the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant took over the baton.

GAZ never stood still, and all the time found original design solutions. So in 1994, for the first time in Russia, a small-tonnage truck GAZ 3302 ("Gazelle") was designed and put into series. With this model, a new generation of vehicles of a stand-alone class begins, which is rather defined as commercial vehicles. In this category, not only trucks low carrying capacity, but also minivans, all-metal vans, minibuses, various special vehicles.
