The low-tonnage Gazel truck has been very popular since its inception in 1994. Due to its universal design, the machine had a lot of different modifications.
While developing the "Gazelle", the possibilitycreating longer versions of the car. The elongated machine was launched in 2002 and received the designation GAZ 330202. Initially, such a chassis was planned to supply third parties with an independent installation of superstructures - carpets and evacuation platforms. But as production increased, the plant introduced a flatbed truck with an elongated chassis into the number of main models.
GAZ 330202 "Gazelle" was in demandbuyers who needed a low-tonnage truck capable of carrying small loads of great length or volume. The overall length of the cargo platform of such vehicles was 4300 mm, and the area reached 8 square meters. meters. Platform metal with stamped flaps.
The carrying capacity of GAZ 330202 remained the same andwas one and a half tons. But there were special versions with amplifiers in the frame and thickened leaf springs, capable of carrying up to two tons of cargo. All cars had a total mass of not more than 3500 kg, remaining in the zone of validity of driver's licenses of category "B". Variants of on-board machines with an awning and with integral rear doors were produced, so-called europlatforms.
Instead of an onboard platform on the chassis of the GAZ 330202 coulda van of the same length is to be installed. The volume of this van depended on the height, but since the height of the car is limited, it did not exceed 18 cu. meters.
Vans differed in the type of goods carried.Depending on the purpose and type of the goods manufactured goods, food and isothermal options were produced. The isothermal vans had a large body weight, so their carrying capacity was 1200 ... 1400 kg.
Small lots on the chassis of the GAZ 330202 produced special vehicles with evacuation platforms, dump trucks, tanks for transportation of various liquids and other modifications.
Machines in different years were equipped with different types of four-cylinder engines. Among them, the following petrol engines can be distinguished:
In addition to the above-mentioned gasoline engines, a 110-hp diesel GAZ 560 was used, which, depending on the year of production, was in compliance with the emission standards from Euro-1 to Euro-3.
Depending on the type of motor the machines developed the maximum speed from 115 to 130 km / h and spent from 10 (diesel variants) to 14 liters of fuel (at a speed of 80 km / h).
At the present time, the production of GAZ 330202 cars in the line of models "Gazelle-Business" continues.
The basic power unit is the EVOTECH motorA274, which is a further development of UMZ 4216. The engine with a working volume of 2.7 liters is a descendant of the GAZ 21 engine, with the maximum possible improvement in design. The motor develops the same power as the predecessor UMZ 4216, but a little more economical.
The second main power unit isfour-cylinder diesel engine with a turbocharger and a compressed air cooler Cummins ISF2.8s4129P. The engine has a capacity of 120 liters. from. and consumes significantly less fuel than the gasoline UMP. But the cost of a car with a diesel engine is more than 20 percent higher than a gasoline. The third option is the installation of the UMZ 421647 motor, adapted to work on natural gas. The service interval for all engine variants is increased to 15 thousand km.
All engine variants are equipped with a five-speedgearbox. The machine is equipped with a standard three-seater cabin. To increase the driver's comfort, the cab is equipped with a new instrument panel with improved instruments and convenient niches for storing documents and small things. The basic equipment of the car includes a power steering and heated mirrors.
The remaining technical characteristics of the GAZ 330202 have not undergone major changes. The dimensions of the cargo platform and the dimensions of the car remained unchanged.
In addition to a standard truck, customersa cargo-passenger version with a double-cab for six people is offered. The plant also ships a "bare" chassis, on which various superstructures are installed. In total there are up to one hundred and fifty options for equipping the chassis.
