GAZ-33097

The GAZ-33097 is a four-wheel-drive transport truck from the Russian GAZ factory, rated for a 2,000 kg payload. It is a development of the GAZ-66-11 and was designed to move cargo over harsh terrain and in bad weather, which is why it carries power steering, driving axles with cam-type self-blocking differentials and radial tyres with a pressure regulation system. Its GAZ 5441 diesel engine drives through a five-speed synchronised manual gearbox and a transfer box with direct and reduction gears. The gross vehicle weight is 6,200 kg, the wheelbase 3,770 mm and the stated maximum speed 85 to 90 km/h at a fuel consumption of 16 litres per 100 km at a steady 60 km/h. A winch-platform chassis version is listed beside the basic truck.
