History of the GAZ-32213 car
GAZ-32213 2005
The task of creating a small, light-duty vehicle for freight and passenger transportation was set to the Gorky Automobile Plant in the late eighties of the last century. In 1996, serial production of the GAZ-32213 began. And seven years later, the assembly line carried out a redesign, as a result of which the car received an updated appearance and design parameters slightly different from the base model. The millionth model was produced in 2005. GAZelle-32213 is still produced to this day.
According to the designers' calculations, during the production of the car, approximately 150 modifications were made to the design, which are mainly related to adaptation to foreign components and systems. For example, since 2011, a brake system exclusively from Bosh has been installed, which has become standard equipment for any minibus configuration.
New modifications of GAZelles and GAZons Next at the Import Substitution-2015 exhibition
Technical characteristics of the GAZ-34039 tracked all-terrain vehicle
These days, Crocus Expo is hosting an exhibition with the deliberately relevant title Import Substitution 2015. Against the backdrop of “originally Russian” sbitny, nesting dolls and mead, there are also mechanical engineering products. The most interesting exposition is at the GAZ Group.
The company has converted its latest product, the all-metal GAZelle Next van with an extended wheelbase and high roof, into an ambulance.
Until now, the medical GAZelle Next was built on the basis of an on-board vehicle, on which a huge booth made of sandwich panels was installed. An ambulance with an all-metal body will begin to be produced before the end of autumn. You can stand upright inside the car, and all the medical equipment is arranged extremely compactly. There is a transition between the cabin and the salon with a sliding door (the version with a booth also has such a transition). The medical GAZelle Next with an all-metal body will be 20-30% cheaper than its imported counterparts.
"Ambulance" GAZelle Next with an all-metal body
Another new product based on the all-metal GAZelle is the auto shop.
There is also a transition between the cabin and the salon. A huge window is cut out on the left side, covered with a rigid “shutter”, which, when deployed, protects customers from the sun or rain, and the lower sash acts as a counter. There is a full set of equipment: refrigerators, an autonomous 220-volt generator, a supply of water.
Automobile shop GAZelle Next with an all-metal body
The auto shop was created under the plans of the Moscow government to develop mobile commerce in the city starting in 2022, after the corresponding federal law is adopted. This modification will be produced for individual orders, and the price has not yet been disclosed.
But the most spectacular car at the exhibition - the gigantic GAZon Next pickup truck - has no direct relation to GAZ itself.
Pickup truck GAZon Next from Luidor
We talked about him briefly.
The pickup truck was built by the Nizhny Novgorod company Luidor. They didn’t have time to really finish it, and therefore they assigned it to the most remote and poorly lit place, in the hall where food cars were demonstrated.
Pickup truck GAZon Next from Luidor
Luidor built this car on his own initiative: someone from the company’s management came up with the idea of creating a Russian analogue of the American International CXT and Ford F-850. The basis was taken on the GAZon Next chassis with a two-row cabin, a YaMZ-534 engine, a standard wheelbase and maximum equipment, including air conditioning, cruise control, a multimedia system and other options. Luidor specialists worked on the style without interfering with the design - the sides of the cargo platform and original bumpers were made of fiberglass, the radiator grille was replaced, the rear tires were “stretched” on American-made chrome wheels, and the front wheels were covered with hubcaps. The interior was refined with soft leather in two colors, which was used to cover the front panel, door panels and seats. The ceiling was lined with suede, and the floor was covered with a beige “carpet”.

According to Luidor's representative, only a month and a half passed from the first sketches to a live prototype. It will take another couple of weeks to finish. In the meantime, the LAWN pickup truck has a cargo platform covered with sheets of technological plastic, and the bumpers, radiator grille and wheel arch extensions are made using garage technology. At the same time, the front bumper is “strung” on bolts and barely holds on. Instead of stylish aluminum running boards, there are hastily welded ones from steel rods.

Tactical and technical indicators
The car is equipped with a fuel tank with a capacity of 70 liters. At the same time, the average gasoline consumption does not exceed 12 liters per 100 kilometers. Gearbox – mechanical, five-speed. The car picks up speed from 0 to 100 km/h in 14 seconds. The braking system is reliable, with drum and disc mechanisms. It has two autonomous circuits, a hydraulic control drive and a vacuum booster.

The GAZ-322137 model is a more advanced version of the car with all-wheel drive, produced in limited quantities. It is designed for movement on country and dirt roads.
Engine
GAZ 322132 inherited the line of power units from the GAZ 32213 model. The most popular modification on the domestic market is the modification with the ZMZ-40524 gasoline engine. This 4-cylinder unit is characterized by increased reliability and has an electronically controlled distributed injection system. Characteristics of the ZMZ-40524 engine:
- working volume – 2.46 l;
- rated power - 133 hp;
- rotation speed – 4000 rpm;
- maximum torque – 214 Nm.
Versions with the foreign Chrysler 2.4L-DOHC gasoline unit were slightly less popular. It was installed in modifications 322133-748 and 322132-718. This power plant had distributed fuel injection, 4 cylinders and a 16-valve timing mechanism. The engine in the GAZ 322132 line of units was considered the most economical and environmentally friendly. Chrysler 2.4L-DOHC engine parameters:
- working volume – 2.43 l;
- rated power - 150 hp;
- rotation speed – up to 5500 rpm;
- maximum torque – 224 Nm.

Benefits of the salon
Salon GAZ-32213
In the GAZ-32213 cabin, the cabin is separated from the passenger compartment by a low partition. There are 11 comfortable seats mounted in the rear of the body. They have two seating options, and in the low-volume GAZ-3221314 model an additional seat was added, allowing the GAZelle to increase its capacity to 14 passengers.
All passenger seats of the minibus are equipped with chairs with high backs and soft headrests.
The design of the car seat is made on a box-shaped frame base made of plastic. The floor is covered with a non-slip coating.
The passenger compartment is equipped with a sliding side door, ventilation and heating systems are installed, and all vehicles are equipped with ABS. A leak-proof hatch is built into the roof. For emergency evacuation of passengers in case of an accident, the GAZ-32213 minibus has hinged rear doors with an opening 156 cm wide and 139.5 cm high, opening 180 degrees.
Gazelle 33023 Farmer
A year after the start of production of the flatbed 3302, GAZ began production of light-duty cargo trucks with a double cabin, the model was called “Farmer”. This modification of the car was originally intended for use in agriculture, but the mini truck quickly found use in other areas, in particular, the car was useful for transporting field crews.
The main difference between the GAZ-33023 and the 3302 is the cabin, the volume of which has been increased to four and a half cubic meters, and it has two rows of seats (six seats). Just like a one and a half ton truck, the Gazelle Farmer has a long-wheelbase version, as well as an all-wheel drive version of the car. In the pre-restyling version, the car was equipped with two types of engines - petrol carburetor engines ZMZ-402 (100 hp) and ZMZ-4063 (110 hp). and since 2000, the Farmer has been additionally equipped with GAZ-560 and 5601 (5602) diesel engines, assembled under license from the Austrian concern Steyr.
Features of the driver's cabin
The cabin has excellent visibility and a height-adjustable steering column. There are three seats: two for passengers and one for the driver. In the “Lux” configuration, the cabin is equipped with:
GAZ-32213 driver's workplace
- Electric window lift.
- CD player with the ability to connect an MP3 player.
- Personal air conditioner made in Germany.
The advantages of the GAZelle minibus include maneuverability and ease of operation, despite the absence of power steering. The disadvantages include not very high-quality assembly, a weak clutch disc and frequent engine overheating in the summer.
