In Russia, a unique car was created - KAMAZ 4911. It is hard to imagine a weight of eleven tons and acceleration to hundreds in ten seconds, gaining speed up to 180 km / h.
Its operation can occur in the range from -30 to +50 degrees Celsius. Of course, this is the pride of the Russian automobile industry.
KAMAZ 4911 immediately gained popularity in its homeland and earned international recognition. And this development of Russian designers saw the light in their homeland, in Naberezhnye Chelny.
This miracle looks like this: the V-shaped eight-cylinder engine, which is produced at the Yaroslavm Machine-Building Plant (YaMZ), has a volume of 17,000 cc. and power up to eight hundred horsepower. The basis for the creation of this engine is the serial SuperMaz engine. Its throttle response is enhanced by two turbochargers produced by Borg Warner. Each cylinder corresponds to two exhaust and two intake valves, there are thirty-two in total.
KAMAZ 4911 was also equipped with hydropneumatic shock absorbers, which were used in army equipment with parachute landing of tracked vehicles. This affected the smoothness and immunity to impassability. The springs were also strengthened and became two meters long, therefore, during the rally, neither the car nor the crew are harmed from jumping.
In this modification, the 4x4 formula is used, this miracle is accompanied by a sixteen-speed manual ZF complete with a Steyr razdatka. A center
differential lock is provided, which allowed to increase the vehicle throughput several times. This development allows KAMAZ since 2003 to climb the podium in almost all the prestigious races of the world.
The supporting frame is made in a lightweight version, the inserts are made of composite materials, which increased the strength and rigidity of the frame structure. Fourteen spring leaves are located at the front and ten are installed at the rear. This is what a machine is designed to win.
A design feature is the rigidity of the cab mount to the main frame and the strength of the crew seat attachment to the cab body. In this design, the driver can fully feel all the nuances of movement and respond correctly to changes in the situation. Cabin safety is ensured by a welded tube frame, which is mounted inside the cabin.
It is worth saying that in sports mode, this monster consumes about a hundred liters for every hundred kilometers. But for victory, this is perhaps a small loss. For the
rally, the car is equipped with a twin fuel tank and holds 1,000 liters.
KAMAZ 4911 extreme is the best representative of the Kamaz family.
This car has found application not only in rallies, it is used for fast delivery of cargo to hard-to-reach places, it is also used in the military industry.
This is KAMAZ 4911, its price is small, especially considering the advantages of the car.
In mass production, the car can be produced on-board and dump truck, which allows it to be used in many industries. It is especially in demand in places where there are severe climatic conditions.
