KAMAZ first showed a bus with a domestic automatic from Aurus

On the eve of the delegation, headed by the First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov, a prototype of Nephas-5299 with the Russian transmission was demonstrated. The unique technique can be guessed by the comments of Rais Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov: the head of the republic has repeatedly praised the smooth and inconspicuous switching of the domestic “nine -stones”.

The adaptation of Katya’s gearboxes, familiar by the Aurus line, has become known for Nephas buses last week. Denis Endachev, Executive Director for FSUE Information and Intellectual Systems, confirmed that the planetary type transmission is planned to be installed on Nephas buses, and prototype tests are underway.

Judging by the reaction of the head of Tatarstan, the Russian 9-speed automatic operates much better than the Chinese “six-steam” Fast Gear. Carriers from the Middle Kingdom were complained by carriers who purchased early “antisancical” Nephas buses. Until 2022, German ZF and VOITH units were put on domestic passenger transport, but now the only available mass machine supplies Fast Gear.

Some Russian bus plants purchase the entire line of gearboxes in China, so adaptation of the transmission from Aurus is a big step forward. On the experimental prototype of the Nine-Minor bus, Katya works in conjunction with the KamAZ-667 diesel (formerly Cummins).
