The ZIL-E167 was an experimental six-wheel-drive off-road truck designed in the early 1960s for the harsh conditions of Siberia, the Urals and the far north of the Soviet Union. Built on 31 December 1962 on a modified ZIL-135 chassis, it had two 7.0 litre V8 engines mounted in the rear, transmissions from the ZIL-135L, steerable front and rear axles, and a cab shared with the BAZ-135. It could cross water, adjust its tyre pressure, clean its intake air and run a 4.5 kilowatt electric pump to supply water in a fire, and it also had radio equipment. Curb weight was 7,000 kilograms with a payload of 5,000 kilograms. When factory testing finished in March 1965 the Ministry of Defence planned to order two more, but a second prototype was never built and the complexity of the transmission kept it out of mass production.
