KAMAZ-53501: all-wheel drive truck of the Mustang family
The production of the KamAZ-53501 multi-purpose vehicle began in 2003 and continues to this day. The main purpose of the truck is the transportation of personnel and army cargo. Taking into account the requirements for military equipment, the model received a particularly strong frame and all-wheel drive on six wheels (wheel arrangement 6 * 6). The car is designed to work in different climatic zones, according to eyewitnesses, the engine starts easily in temperature conditions from -45 to +450.
The KamAZ-53501 power plant is located on the front of the frame, above it there is an all-metal, folding, cabover cab, designed for a driver and two passengers with a berth for rest. Most of the military trucks are equipped with an armored cab, with bulletproof glass and a floor reinforced with special sheets. The interior of the truck is ascetic, but there is everything you need to drive a car and control its technical condition. We note a fairly ergonomic and informative panel.
Quite often, various additional superstructures are installed on the KamAZ-53501 platform: an armored module for transporting personnel, an excavator installation, a tank, and various manipulators. Also, the car can transport bulky cargo, including containers.
The new KamAZ-53501 in the simplest configuration will cost the buyer 3 rubles. Cars taken from military storage with a mileage of 450 to 000 thousand kilometers are in great demand. The price for such cars starts at 5 million rubles.

Engine and fuel consumption
Depending on the year of manufacture and modification, the car is driven by one of the domestic power plants:
KamAZ 740.30-260... V-shaped, eight-cylinder turbo diesel with an overhead valve and a displacement of 10,85 liters. The rated power of the motor is 260 horsepower, its weight is 885 kilograms. The engine has a system of forced air injection with intermediate cooling. In terms of environmental parameters, this motor complies with Euro 2 standards.
KamAZ 740.622-280... The engine has a design similar to the previous engine, but differs in a large displacement (11,76 liters) and greater power (280 hp). It should also be mentioned that a Common Rail fuel system is installed here, which contributes to better fuel combustion and reduces fuel consumption. The engine complies with Euro 4 standards.
KamAZ-53501 is equipped with two fuel tanks with a volume of 170 and 125 liters, on some modifications one tank with a capacity of 350 liters is installed. Average seasonal fuel consumption (summer-winter) when driving on a paved road is 28,5 - 32,5 liters.
Transmission, brakes and power supply
Today the car is equipped with a modern domestic mechanical ten-speed gearbox KamAZ-154. Unlike other gearboxes, this box has reinforced synchronizers, improved multiplier control and more reliable gear attachment. Like any all-wheel drive vehicle, the KamAZ-53501 is equipped with a transfer case with a lockable center differential, the front-wheel drive in this truck works constantly.
As in most trucks of the Kama Automobile Plant, a single-disk dry diaphragm clutch with a hydraulic drive and a hydraulic pneumatic booster is installed here. The brakes are drum brakes with pneumatic drive and drum diameters of 400 millimeters. In addition to the main braking system, the car is equipped with backup and parking brakes.
The car's electrical systems are powered by two 190 Ah batteries, and a 28-volt generator with a capacity of 2 kW is also installed here.

Reviews of owners and drivers KamAZ-53501
Alexey Boldyrev, 41 years old, Novgorod region:
I bought an onboard Kamaz 53501 three years ago - from army conservation, during which time the car worked hard on various roads. Among the advantages, I will single out a large volumetric six-meter body (you can transport goods of any volume and dimensions) and a reliable engine. I carry out car maintenance in a service center, replacing all consumables in accordance with the instructions - maybe that's why there have been no serious breakdowns in these three years.
