It turned out which KAMAZ line K3 will be the first to resign

At the exhibition dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the Victory, the Motor managed to talk with the representative of the auto giant and ask a question about the prospects for replacing old trucks with the K5 family model. Until at least 2028, KAMAZ KAMAZ will remain in the ranks, and the first to resign the dump truck with a 6×4 wheels and the 6520 index. The replacement from the K5 is already ready and is collected in series.

Head of KAMAZA Karaugin: this year you can no longer produce trucks

The auto giant “imported” KAMAZ-6595 dump trucks: in the configurator there are trucks with wheel formulas 6×4, 6×6 and 8×4 with platforms of various volumes. It is these machines that will be supplanted from the KAMAZ-6520 gamma and modifications. The transition to trucks with a new cab will allow auto giant to compete with Chinese dump trucks, which have filled the Russian market to the problems of Shaacman.

However, they are in no hurry to say goodbye to the KAMAZ-43118 bestseller, although this model also belongs to the K3 family, and was developed even earlier than “6520”. The representative of the plant emphasized that at the moment there is no replacement for a total of qualities with an all -wheel drive truck. The same applies to specialized vehicles with K3 cabins: for state orders, the car of the old line is still non -alternative.

At the factory, they continue to locally upgrade KAMAZ K3: six months ago, the changes made the changes, the engine and bridges of the three -axle chassis. It is interesting that the KamAZ-6520 dump trucks were updated two years ago, but this did not help to restrain the onslaught of the “Chinese”.
