KamAZ tested a flagship tractor with a dump semi-trailer

KamAZ-54901 is the flagship model of the Russian truck brand. Previously, two-axle truck tractors formed road trains with curtain-sided, frameless and other semi-trailers, but never with dump trucks. The company has now completed test operation of such a coupling.

Operating tests took place for a month on the Saratov-Volgograd route, with the road train delivering crushed stone for road construction.

And these tests brought interesting information: in a month of work standard for such equipment, the car covered 10 thousand km.

So we can draw a conclusion about the distances covered by equipment engaged in construction and transporting sand or crushed stone.

By the way, KamAZ-54901 worked without overload during the tests: 20-25 tons of crushed stone were loaded into a platform with a capacity of 33 cubic meters.

The owner attached a shipping container to a Toyota Alphard minivan. Among expensive cars, the Chinese still choose “Europeans.” Another Chinese brand will officially come to Russia

Meanwhile, it became known that MAZ will stop producing its most popular buses, but the veteran will be replaced by a fresh model.
