2 millionth Kamaz - "festive" Car

In 1976, a KAMAZ truck numbered 0000001 came off the tape of KAMAZ's main assembly line, which was still in commissioning, which was a real holiday in Naberezhnye Chelny, which gathered about 15,000 people! After exactly 36 years, the picture was repeated: the KAMAZ members gathered again for a festive rally. Again in a solemn atmosphere, a "festive" car came off the assembly line. Only this time it was painted in the corporate blue, and its serial number was listed under the figure of 2000 000!

Another highlight of this car was left on his door autograph of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. He came to KAMAZ to personally congratulate the factory workers on the release of the jubilee truck. Speaking at the ceremony, Putin noted the successes of KAMAZ, calling it a matter of pride. "Thanks to your diligence, KAMAZ has not only reached the pre-crisis levels of production, but also to an entirely new level of the quality of the products," the Russian government's chairman emphasized.

Jubilee machine with the number 2 LLC Ltd. became a model of a heavy family of increased load capacity - KAMAZ-6522 (6x6), which is characterized by improved performance and high reliability. This is a colleague of the famous KAMAZ-6520 (6x4), the founder of this family. By decision of the company's management, the commemorative car signed by the prime minister will not be available for sale. He, just like the first-born of the auto giant, will be exhibited in the museum of the car factory.

After restyling in 2010, KAMAZ-6522 changed its appearance. In addition, he received a number of updated nodes and systems. The truck was equipped with a modern cabin on the air suspension, which has less aerodynamic resistance, increased comfort and ergonomics. The car is equipped with a reliable and economical KAMAZ engine with Common Rail system capacity of 400 liters. from. 16-speed ZF gearbox and highway gable bus.

The load capacity of KAMAZ-6522 is 22 tons. All this allows the all-wheel drive to carry a large amount of cargo at high operational speed along the highway and off-road (which is especially important for the Russian outback with a poorly developed road network). Not surprisingly, cars of this model are popular among construction companies and oil and gas companies (truck cranes, dump trucks). Due to its stamina, unpretentiousness, reliability, as well as high throughput and power, KAMAZ-6522 is successfully operated in severe climatic conditions, including in the Far North.
