GAZ 330232 (Farmer) - technical characteristics, fuel consumption

Body length Farmer

Gazelle Farmer is a utility vehicle that makes it possible to transport cargo up to 1 ton in a body with an area of ​​4.5 m2. At the same time, the spacious and roomy cabin can accommodate 6 people. Let's find out more about the technical capabilities of the Farmer, the dimensions of his body and much more.

GAZ-330232–750

GAZ-33023–750 is a six-seater Gazelle with an EvoTech 2.7l gasoline engine. The length of the cargo base is 3.1 m. Rear-wheel drive.

Peculiarities

Six-seater cabin The six-seater Gazelle has 2 seats in the front, 4 in the back. Passengers enter the back row by moving the front seat to the side. With a height of 150 cm and a width of 173 cm, this does not require any awkward posture. There is just enough legroom in the back row so that passengers of any height do not experience discomfort. A sunroof and auxiliary heater are standard on all double cabs.

Gasoline engine The UMZ-4216 engine was well suited for cargo transportation, but needed improvement. All the necessary changes were developed by the South Korean company Tenergy, the new motor was called Evotek. Disadvantages such as overheating, oil leaks, and a weak cylinder head assembly have been eliminated. But the advantages remained: peak thrust at 2350 rpm, reliable timing mechanism, undemanding quality of fuel.

For fans of Trans-Volga engines, we offer the GAZ-330232–750 with the ZMZ-409 engine.

Onboard body The cargo platform of the Gazelle-Farmer GAZ-330232–750 is the same as in the three-seater Gazelle, 3.1 meters long. On request, the side can be extended to 5.1 m. The side platform allows:

All onboard Gazelles are supplied with removable arches and an awning.

Rear-wheel drive It is not easy for front-wheel drive to withstand heavy loads. The drive wheels must both move the car and turn at a large angle. The hinges that are responsible for this are the weak point of the front-wheel drive. It is not surprising that trucks with a payload of more than 1.5 tons are available only with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. In rear-wheel drive, the load helps to carry itself, pressing the drive wheels to the road. In the Gazelle, rear-wheel drive is implemented on the principle of maximum safety margin: a massive rear axle, steel springs and double wheels.

There is no need to compromise between cabin and body capacity. GAZ-330232–750 for 1,315,000 rubles carries 5 passengers and holds the same amount of cargo as a three-seater Gazelle.

Indicators for the Next model

Next is a model range of domestic cars that has been on sale since 2013. The main distinguishing feature is the rethinking of the entire cabin of such vehicles, which has become much more modern, more technologically advanced and more convenient for the driver and his passengers. Next parameters are as follows:

• Onboard base model: length/maximum height of the awning/width – 3.089/1.8/1.978;
• Extended options with indicators of 4.2 and 5.0 meters;
• Choosing the Farmer Next option allows you to get a double cab, but a shorter body length - 2.4 m.

All-metal vans are also offered to consumers. The standard cab version has a body length of 3.63 meters. There is access to an option that can carry seven passengers. Naturally, the useful cargo volume also changes: from 13.5 to 9.5 cubic meters.

That is, the most popular domestic manufacturer of small-sized trucks has tried to offer the consumer a fairly serious selection of its models capable of solving various problems. The main thing is to choose the right car.

“Farmer” car: GAZ 33023 and its characteristics

Production of the basic model of the onboard Gazelle started in 1994, while production of the GAZ 33023 Farmer began a year later. The new model received a number of differences, the main ones being a more voluminous cabin with two rows of seats and a shortened cargo body with a flatbed. The cabin of the standard Gazelle was designed for three people (driver and two passengers), while the Fermere could accommodate six people.

Similar to any other versions of the Gazelle car, GAZ 33023 was produced in various modifications, including Gazelle 330232. The first generation was produced in 1995–2003, the second generation was produced in 2003–2010. Since 2010, the production of the Gazelle Farmer Business car has been carried out, which continues to this day. Since 2013, serial production of the IV generation commercial vehicle GAZ - Gazelle Next, which is a modification of the Farmer with a larger cabin, has also been launched.

GAZ "Business"

Big changes in the Gazelle Farmer modification took place in 2010. Although outwardly the car was not very different from the previous version, more than 20 components in the car were improved. As for the exterior trim, the Business model has a different front bumper; it is integrated into one element with the radiator grille. They also now paint cars in different, more attractive colors.

The body painting process itself has become more technologically advanced. This time, the car plant has provided an anti-corrosion coating, and the body is no longer so susceptible to the influence of an aggressive external environment.

There are many more improvements in the interior - the instrument panel has been changed again, the steering wheel has acquired a more modern look. The heater control unit has changed, the Gazelle Farmer Business is now standardly equipped with air conditioning, and the seats are equipped with more modern and reliable seat belts.

The cabin is soundproofed, making the cabin quieter and more comfortable.

Technical specifications

Visually, the GAZ 33023 Farmer car is based on the familiar appearance of an ordinary Gazelle. Even the restyling of standard and “farm” cars was carried out in parallel. At the same time, the appearance of the car was significantly improved: the radiator grille was updated, the bumper was straightened, the rear-view mirrors were enlarged and halogen drop-shaped optics were installed. The all-metal cabin of the GAZ 33023 Farmer car is distinguished by aerodynamic contours and increased length, although the number of doors for passengers remains unchanged - there are only two.

The “farm” version of the Gazelle uses a cabin with six seats in two rows: two seats in front and four in the back. At the same time, the amount of free space in both the front and rear rows of seats is quite limited. Seating in the second row is also not very comfortable: it requires folding the front passenger seat.

The length of the GAZ 330232 cargo-passenger vehicle could be 547 or 630 cm with a cargo platform dimensions of 2306x1943x380 or 3090x1943x(380-400) mm, respectively. The platform in both variations had three folding sides made of metal. The wheelbase of the GAZ 330232 244 was 290 cm with a standard vehicle length and 350 cm with an extended platform.

Other dimensions of the Gazelle Farmer car:

The vehicle's curb weight, taking into account the engine and other components, can range from 1825 to 2100 kg for various types of performance. The maximum total weight of the machine is 3500 kg.

The vehicle's load capacity is 1000 kg; in the case of an extended platform, the figure can be increased to 1200 kg.

Disadvantages of the machine

The GAZ cab is equipped with only two doors. This layout made it possible to significantly reduce the cost of the car upon purchase, but during operation it becomes clear that it cannot be considered an advantage. To get to the rear seats, the person sitting in front needs to leave the cabin and recline the back of the chair.

GAZ 330232 – interior

The interior has become more spacious, but this has no effect on comfort and ergonomics. In the process of improving the interior equipment, the car underwent some changes, although no significant progress was achieved - everything remained at a fairly simple, budget level.

The Gazelle has several significant shortcomings. After 50,000-80,000 km, important clutch elements - the disc and the basket - begin to break down. The painting of the car body leaves much to be desired - after several years of active use, traces of corrosion appear on the coating. The rear axle tends to wear out quickly.

Propulsion system

The farmer is equipped with the same engines as the regular Gazelle, including three gasoline engines and one diesel unit.

At various stages of production, the GAZ 33023 Farmer car was equipped with other installations, including a number of ZMZ engines. The power of the engines, including the ZMZ 406 series, varied from 86 to 153 hp. With. In terms of transmission, all modifications of the Gazelle Farmer used a five-speed manual transmission with synchronization.

For the final drive, the gear ratio was 5.125, interaction with the engine was carried out through a dry single-plate clutch.

History of development

In 2002, that is, about a year before the first restyling, the series was replenished with the GAZ 330232 model with a long wheelbase. Accordingly, the second generation was represented by a much larger number of modifications, differing in a variety of criteria, such as the GAZ electrical circuit.

With a standard chassis, the gap between the wheel axles was 290 cm, and in the case of a long frame, this distance increased by 60 cm. The body length on a standard chassis was 230 cm, in the case of an extended Farmer - from 3 to 4 meters. Since 2003, there has been a gradual change in the model range of engines used. Carburetor internal combustion engines ZMZ 402 and 406, UMZ 4215 gradually went out of use and were replaced by newer and more advanced engines that offered improved performance, reduced fuel consumption per 100 km, etc.

In 2010, the GAZ 33023 Business model was released, introducing serious modifications to the Gazelle Farmer line. Visually, the car was practically no different from the previous version, but over twenty units and components, including the electrical circuit, were subjected to serious improvements. In terms of appearance, the Business model is distinguished by a front bumper combined into one design with a radiator grille. In addition, the update affected the car's paint colors: they became attractive.

In 2013, a new, fourth generation was released: Gazelle Farmer Next. This modification, unlike the three previous ones, cannot be called simply restyling. In fact, this is a car of a new brand, little similar to previous models.

In general, the Gazelle Farmer has remained a popular and sought-after car in our country for many years. Operation and repair of the GAZ 33023 are quite cheap, especially compared to imported analogues. In this regard, the car is invariably in demand in the market.

GAZ from 1995 to 2003

The Gazelle Farmer, in contrast to the GAZ 3302 model, has a reduced body volume and, accordingly, a smaller payload capacity - it is equal to 1 ton. The vehicle in this version is often used to transport a team with equipment to various sites.

Overall dimensions of GAZ 33023

Subsequently, a modification was developed on an extended chassis (GAZ 330232), as well as an all-wheel drive version GAZ 330273.

The first GAZ 33023 cars were equipped with two types of engines - ZMZ 4026 and ZMZ 4063. The gearbox is a 5-speed manual gearbox - its design is very similar to the Volgov five-speed gearbox, only the gear ratios have been changed. In the first two years of production, the Tchaikovsky rear axle was installed on the Gazelle model, but with the start of production of the Gazelle Farmer model, all modifications already used their own axle design.

The front facing of the GAZ 33023 cabin of the 1995-2003 editions was standard for all Gazelles - rectangular headlights, orange turning lights, a short straight hood. The front plastic bumper looked ordinary and rustic, but the car was created for work, and it did not need any special beauty.

Cabin from a GAZ 33023 truck

GAZ 33023 has a frame structure, all components and assemblies are mounted on it. In the steering of cars from 1995-2003, no power steering is provided; the steering column is height adjustable. The front and rear suspensions are spring type, a strong steel beam is installed in front, the steering knuckles are attached to it using pins.

Technical characteristics of the GAZelle-33023 cargo truck and similar vehicles

The small-sized truck GAZelle-33023, which appeared in the plant’s production program in 1996, is equipped with a cabin with increased capacity. The cargo platform is designed for transporting cargo and installing various repair equipment. The components and assemblies of the vehicle are unified with other vehicles of the Gazelle family, which simplifies repair and maintenance.

Device and technical parameters

GAZ-33023 GAZelle Farmer is built on the basis of a steel ladder-type frame. The front suspension consists of semi-elliptic springs and gas shock absorbers. Some trucks use anti-roll bars. The rear beam is mounted on a similar suspension, which has an additional spring of several leaves.

The machines use a hydraulic braking system, divided into 2 circuits. The front wheels are equipped with ventilated disc mechanisms, and drums are mounted at the rear. An ABS system is available upon request.

The handbrake is equipped with a mechanical cable drive that acts on the rear axle pads.

The cars are equipped with 4-cylinder petrol engines ZMZ and UMZ, unified in many elements. Business generation trucks use UMZ engines with a cylinder capacity of 2890 cm³, meeting Euro 3 or 4 requirements. The units develop a power of 107 hp. at 4000 rpm and consume 13 liters of gasoline per 100 km (at a speed of 80 km/h). The conversion of Business Farmer to gas is carried out by specialized companies with a license for the right to convert.

The machines are equipped with a single-disc dry friction clutch with hydraulic control. A fully synchronized 5-speed overdrive transmission is used. The drive axle is equipped with a hypoid main pair and a bevel differential (locking on request). To transmit torque from the box, a cardan shaft of 2 sections with an intermediate support is used.

The all-metal cabin is designed to carry 6 people. The driver's seat can be adjusted according to the distance from the pedals and the angle of the backrest. The steering column is adjustable in 2 directions. To reduce steering effort, a hydraulic booster is used. On early production machines there is no such unit. The list of additional equipment includes air conditioning.

Dimensions and technical characteristics of truck 33023:

The GAZelle-Farmer-330232 car differs in some parameters:

Description of body parameters and dimensions:

The GAZ-330232 vehicle uses a platform extended to 3089 mm, corresponding to standard vehicles with a 3-seater cab. Due to the use of reinforced fastening, the loading height increased to 1000 mm. The tarpaulin awning for the GAZelle-33023 Farmer is supplied by the plant on a separate order. The original part can be purchased from an official representative of the plant.

Prices and similar cars

The cost of the new GAZ-33023 GAZelle Farmer is 925 thousand rubles. A modification on an extended chassis will cost 30 thousand rubles more. On the secondary market, the price of cars starts from 190 thousand rubles; equipment in good condition is valued by owners at 500-600 thousand rubles.

The car has no direct analogues, since competing equipment is equipped with a cabin designed for 3 people. Isuzu NKR77LL and Foton-1039 have similar cargo characteristics. The Russian truck UAZ-39094 Farmer, equipped with all-wheel drive, is inferior to GAZ products in terms of load capacity and comfort.

GAZ 330232 Gazelle Farmer

GAZ 330232 is one of the specialized modifications of the GAZ 33023 (“Gazelle-Farmer”) model.
It is distinguished from the basic version by its increased chassis length, which makes the car an excellent option for cases where it is necessary to combine the functions of a compact minibus and a light-duty truck. At the same time, the increased length of the chassis has a positive effect on the area of ​​the cargo platform, allowing it to accommodate more cargo. However, the vehicle's carrying capacity does not change. The concept of the GAZ 330232 is no different from the main model of the brand (GAZ 3302), because the technology has all the advantages of other GAZ Group products: availability of maintenance, ease of operation and affordable cost.

General information

GAZ 330232 is a rather specific model, which is a modernized version of the GAZ 33023. “Gazelle-Farmer” began to be produced in 1995, and the main feature of the model was a dual operator’s cabin with 6 seats. There could be 2 passengers in the front, 4 in the back. This arrangement is due to the fact that in order to board the second row it was necessary to go through the first (by folding the front seat), since there were only 2 doors in the operator’s cabin. This design was not a flaw of the GAZ Group specialists " Engineers tried to unify the model as much as possible with the main products in order to reduce the cost of production.

Long-wheelbase modifications in the family appeared much later - before the first restyling. In 2002, representatives of the GAZ Group realized the need to expand the product line. It was decided to do this by creating an extended version of the Gazelle Farmer. As a result, a modification of GAZ 330232 appeared.

In its initial form, the model did not last long. In 2003, the family underwent restyling. Externally, the car has noticeably changed: the front bumper, headlights, radiator grille and hood have changed. The headlights received a teardrop shape, and the cornering lights were no longer separate elements - they were hidden in the main headlights. Inside, some elements of the heating system and the dashboard have changed.

Since 2003, the GAZ Group began to actively change the engine range for the GAZ 33023 family (including the GAZ 330232 model). Carburetor engines ZMZ 406 and UMZ 4215 were becoming a thing of the past - they were replaced by more advanced units Chrysler 2.4, ZMZ 405, UMZ 4216 and GAZ 5602. In 2008, the latter was discontinued because it turned out to be quite difficult to repair. At the same time, the cost of equipment for the GAZ 5602 engine was quite significant, which negatively affected the popularity of this modification.

In 2010, GAZ 330232 underwent a major update. The appearance of the model remained virtually unchanged, but the design of the car was revised. It received over 20 seriously modernized units. Another bumper appeared in front, which became integrated into the radiator grille. The painting process has changed again. The main problem of the Gazelles was solved - thanks to the anti-corrosion coating, the body confidently resisted the aggressive influence of the external environment. Changes have taken place in the interior again. The steering wheel has a modern look, and the instrument panel has also changed. The seats began to be equipped with reliable seat belts, and improved sound insulation provided increased comfort of movement. The number of foreign equipment suppliers has increased. GAZ 330232 received a Sachs clutch master cylinder, ZF steering and a Bosch vacuum booster.

The car was available in the following modifications:

All versions are equipped with an awning and power steering. The difference between them is the type of engine installed.

GAZ 330232 is widely used in rural and urban areas. The car is in demand in small and medium-sized businesses as equipment that allows them to simultaneously transport passengers and cargo. The machine is most popular among repair teams, as it helps deliver materials for repairs, equipment and the workers themselves to the construction site, which significantly reduces costs and reduces the cost of work.

Acquaintance

ATTENTION! A completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption has been found! Don't believe me? An auto mechanic with 15 years of experience also didn’t believe it until he tried it. And now he saves 35,000 rubles a year on gasoline! Read more"

In the Farmer, access to the rear row of seats is provided by the sliding design of the front seat. In a word, this is an ideal vehicle for transporting various teams, be it construction or utility services.

The farmer is also called Gas-33023. Most often the car was used in rural areas, which is why they gave it such a nickname. Equipped with permanent gearbox on all wheels and increased ground clearance, such a vehicle is a real all-terrain vehicle that is not afraid of bad roads.

Extended parts Farmer

The Farmer was produced in 23 modifications. They were equipped with various types of power plants, such as ZMZ-4063, Gaz-560 and UMZ-4215. The fuel tank of the modifications was designed for 70 liters. Some versions of the Farmer were equipped with a side, others with a chassis designed to install an extended platform (this made it possible to transfer oversized cargo or special equipment).

Specifications

In terms of technical characteristics, the GAZ 330232 is in many ways similar to the main model of the family, the GAZ 33023. The difference lies only in some dimensions. GAZ 330232 has a wheelbase of 3500 mm (standard - 2900 mm), total length - 6300 mm (standard - 5470 mm), body length - 4000 mm (standard - 2300 mm). The rest of their dimensions are the same:

The curb weight of the car is 2060 kg, the load capacity is 1500 kg. Wheel formula – 4 by 2, number of seats – 6.

Dynamic characteristics of GAZ 330232:

Device

GAZ 330232 embodies most of the advanced technologies of the Gorky Automobile Plant, combining reliable electronics and imported elements. In comparison with the basic version, specialists changed the rear and front axles and suspension of the car. The design of the model and the interior decoration have been slightly changed. Engineers were able to find the optimal balance between reliability in all climatic conditions and ease of operation, regardless of the type of road surface.

The design of the GAZ 330232 uses an elongated frame, which significantly increases the space of the cabin and cargo compartment. At the same time, the model retained the recognizable features of the standard Gazelle. The car body was created with the participation of Austrian engineers. Russian specialists were assisted by representatives who developed a unique mechanism for executing the sides. GAZ 330232 was distinguished from other models by the absence of hidden cavities. In the design of the lifting mechanism, Italian-made components appeared; other parts remained Russian.

The GAZ 330232 is based on a frame chassis, complemented by a dependent front suspension with hydraulic telescopic shock absorbers and a dependent rear suspension on springs. Anti-roll bars were again installed at the rear. In the GAZ 330232 line, only rear-wheel drive modifications were available.

The car was equipped with a 2-circuit brake system. The front brakes were disc type, the rear brakes were drum. The brake drive is hydraulic. again, the brake system included a pressure regulator in the rear circuit and a vacuum booster.

All versions of GAZ 330232 were equipped with a five-speed manual gearbox with a hypoid bevel final drive. The clutch was a dry single-disc with a hydraulic drive. The steering mechanism was built according to the “screw-ball nut” type. Most modifications were equipped with power steering, providing maximum driving comfort.

The main highlight of the GAZ 330232 model was the large double operator cabin with 2 doors, which can accommodate up to 6 people. At the same time, the front seats were designed for two people. This arrangement made it a little difficult to get into the back seat, since the front seat had to be folded down first. However, due to this, it was possible to reduce the cost of the model.

The interior of the GAZ 330232 was distinguished by its large spaciousness, but in terms of ergonomics and comfort it was practically no different from other models of the Gorky Automobile Plant. All vehicle controls were located on an impressively sized dashboard within reach of the driver. The salon looked very budget-friendly, and there was no need to talk about special comfort here. The build quality and finishing materials remained at a low level. In the restyled versions, these parameters looked somewhat better, but were still inferior to their foreign counterparts.

GAZ 330232 is a model for everyday work, and its main advantages are functionality and low cost.

The main disadvantages of the car:

Sable 4x4

According to some buyers, one of the most successful models of the domestic automobile industry. The all-wheel drive Sobol has several trim levels and customizable options. It is possible to choose interior variations for 6 or 10 passengers, an engine running on gasoline or diesel, a plug-in or permanent drive, and a roof of different heights. According to the manufacturer, the car has the best cross-country ability within its class, while maintaining the minimum cost of ownership and the low cost of the car itself. If desired, it is easy to install additional options:

• central locking system;
• radio with control buttons on the steering wheel;
• electric windows and electric mirror adjustments;
• preheater.

The all-wheel drive Sobol, which replaced the well-known “loaf”, was successfully tested in harsh climatic conditions and off-road conditions at different times of the year.

Thanks to the plug-in drive, the car has become more economical, while the reliability and durability of the transmission have improved. The low load capacity compared to the Gazelle is compensated by maneuverability and compact dimensions.
