Ural is preparing trucks with a new cab: the first photo

“Autoisha” shared a picture of a prototype of a dump truck with an unprecedented design. The hood decorates the inscription “Ural”, but it is not easy to recognize the Russian truck, because the cabin is imported! It is planned to purchase it from the Chinese supplier of car components Qixing. Differences from the relevant coastal cabin of the IVECO development of the 1980s are an improved ergonomics of the salon and a spacious sleeping place.

The Qixing Group catalog has a similar cabin, and even an interior photo with a central console turned to the driver. Currently, the Urals uses the IVECO Turbotech cabin on civilian trucks in the early 1980s: it is completely localized in Russia, but is morally obsolete.

Ural trucks with the Chinese cabin should go to the series this year. Another important new thing is the transition to Russian bridges, although Chinese are mainly purchased now. The General Director of the Urals Pavel Yakovlev announced both upgrades in the fall of 2023, but the presentation has not yet taken place.

MAN launched the production of the last turbodiesel for trucks

Last summer, KamAZ General Director Sergei Kogogin said that the share of the state defense order takes up to 70-80% in the production structure of the Ural Automobile Plant. The Chelninsky auto giant has less dependence on army customers: about 30% of the products are spent on the needs of the military.
