In the segment of small commercial vehicles specialplace occupied by vans all-metal. These machines, depending on the configuration, can be used for the transport of goods, passengers or used in the cargo and passenger variant. Particularly relevant is the use of these machines in urban environments, where in many cases a ban on the movement of heavy-duty trucks is being introduced.
In general, it is customary in the automotive industry to distinguishuniversal and special vans. The former are used for transporting various cargoes without special conditions. These vans protect the cargo from rain and mechanical damage, can be with a tent or be produced as vans all-metal.

In the world of automotive industry are produced vansall-metal of the following companies: Citroen FIAT, Peugeot, SEVEL. They are foreign producers. From domestic it is worth noting UAZ, GAZ, MAZ, VAZ. Let's consider in more detail the representative of the domestic car industry.
Vans all-metal series GAZelle "Next"- this is another step of the domestic car industry on the way to European car market. Machines of this format at the car factory yet was not: a good internal combustion engine, a spacious cabin, modern equipment is used in the complete sets. Particularly pleasing is the competitive cost of the car.
Considering all-metal vans, prices forwhich range from a million to two or more rubles, still want to make a choice in the direction of the domestic car industry. Despite the lagging behind the world's automakers, Russian cars are distinguished by their adaptability to Russian conditions, independence from possible sanctions for components and a comparable price for the maintenance and repair of a vehicle.
Despite the relatively short history of thismachines, GAZelle Next began to be produced instead of the outdated model. As well as the previous car, the car has made the present revolution and has made a high-grade competition to foreign vans, as it is confirmed for today.
GAZelle "Next" appeared before the consumerFor the first time in 2012, the following year, cars entered the retail sales network. The machine has noticeably added on all the main characteristics. This model is implemented not only in the domestic market of the country, but also outside the Russian Federation. Production of GAZelle models "Next" for other countries (for example, Great Britain) was established.
Gazel "Next" - all-metal van, pricewhich reaches 1.3 million rubles, is a competition for a Ford Transit car, the cost of which is almost twice as much, that is, more than 2 million rubles. Vans Volkswagen and Mercedes also cost 2 million, and Renault and Peugeot cost about 1.8 million. To date, consumers vote with a ruble, so the chances of success for the new GAZel Next in the version of the CMF (all-metal van) are quite good. It remains to be hoped that domestic companies will focus on European and overseas manufacturers, absorbing all that should be sought: reliability, comfort, relatively inexpensive maintenance during the entire operation time.
