Medium-tonnage trucks “Valdai” have undergone modernization

On the Valdai 8 and Valdai 12 trucks, a dynamic stabilization system appeared, which became part of the basic equipment. In addition, the cars have a new instrument panel. “Valdai 8” is a medium-tonnage cabover truck with a gross weight of 7.49-8.7 tons, and the gross weight of “Valdai 12” is 11,990 kg.

The dynamic stabilization system includes a whole complex of active safety subsystems. In this case, ESC can be forcibly disabled using a button on the center console.

Another important change was the installation of a new instrument cluster, which received a large multifunctional color display (previously, a similar screen was used on NN generation cars).

KamAZ presented a new generation silent garbage truck, the Volga K50, which will receive an adaptive suspension, an 8-speed automatic transmission and a powerful engine. A courier’s dream: an autopilot system will be built into electric scooters

Earlier it became known that the 12-ton Valdai 12 trucks are now equipped with YaMZ-53 445 Euro-5 engines. This is a unit that, with a working volume of 4.43 liters, produces 169 hp. and 662 Nm.

The SCR system is a single controlled exhaust gas purification circuit. It consists of a muffler-neutralizer, an electronic control unit and other components.
