The Gorky Automobile Plant announced the launch of the new GAZelle-Next minibus. It will be really revolutionary for GAZ. Instead of the unibody, the passenger GAZelle-Next got a steel carcass onto which body panels made of zinc-galvanized steel or fiberglass were suspended. Thus they managed to create a roomy cabin (its height is 190 cm) for 18 or 19 passengers.
The minibus is similar to the GAZelle-Next trucks technically. It is equipped with a 2,8-liter Cummins ISF turbodiesel engine (120 hp) and 5-speed manual transmission.
The price for the new minibus will begin from 985 thousand rubles.
