KamAZ » Arctic

At the 'Vuzromexpo 2017' in Moscow, KAMAZ jointly with Moscow Polytechnic University, scientific and technical center "Industrial Design" and Bauman university showcased the prototype of the Arctic truck on low-pressure tires called 'Kamaz-Arctic'. It was developed specifically for effective work in the conditions of severe climate of the Far North.

Immediately after the exhibition, the prototype "KamAZ-Arctic" was sent to the tests in Yakutia. The truck uses units and aggregates of the mass production KamAZ trucks, but the chassis was created from scratch. The articulated truck "KAMAZ-Arctic" will be produced in two versions with wheel configurations 6x6 and 8x8.

The autonomy of the operation of this all-terrain vehicle is supplemented with a quite comfortable apartment block for three people. The living unit is equipped with a kitchen, sleeping places, a sanitary unit, an autonomous generator, and a heater. Thus, it can even be arranged for long transitions to the North Pole and wait for severe snowstorms, and in case of breakage or congestion, comfortably wait for help.
