MAZ-200

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The MAZ-200 was a Soviet heavy truck and the first model built by the Minsk Automobile Plant, which put it into production in 1949 after the plant came to life at the end of the Second World War. The design continued a truck developed at Yaroslavl, where the Yaroslavl Automobile Plant had already built it between 1947 and 1950 before production moved to Minsk. It was the first Soviet truck powered by a diesel engine, and it was re-engined in 1962 with the YaMZ-236 V6 diesel. A large family of variants grew around it, including a troop transport, tractor-trailer units, a dump truck, a logging truck and a four-wheel-drive version, and its successor was the cab-over MAZ-500.
