The production of these trucks is now established in Belarus: cabins are welded and painted on-site, and many domestic components are used. The trucks are equipped with Belarusian-made engines, gearboxes from Minsk, tires from Babruysk, and other parts made in the country.
Currently, there are two models in the lineup. The first is an 8-ton truck that can carry just over 5 tons of cargo and is equipped with a turbodiesel engine with an automatic transmission. The second is a heavier 10-ton version with greater carrying capacity and a manual transmission. Both models will be sold on the Russian market.
Later, they plan to add another 12-ton modification.
