“The company continues developing a line of trucks and cars, implementing investment projects, mastering new equipment and advanced production technologies. The KAMAZ-54901 freight truck from the K5 generation is still selling well. In general, there is a strong demand for our products. As before, CNG and LNG vehicles, cars, as well as KAMAZ electric buses are highly desirable in the market. These and other factors influenced financial results. The revenue and net profit of KAMAZ PTC increased greatly as compared to the same period last year,” commented Sergey Kogogin, General Director of KAMAZ PTC.

According to the results of the production plan for the first three quarters of 2021, the factories and divisions of KAMAZ significantly exceeded the same figures of the previous year. The company produced 30,979 vehicles within the first nine months of this year (a 21 percent rise compared to the corresponding figures ​​of 2020).

The company continues updating production, improving technologies and developing a product line.

On these days, KAMAZ is demonstrating its NGV line at the St. Petersburg International Gas Forum.

The anniversary St. Petersburg International Gas Forum brings together gas industry leaders. This is one of the main projects where issues of the global gas industry are discussed. SPIGF-2021 is also home to a large exhibition. More than 350 companies from different countries, including KAMAZ PTC, present their expositions at the forum. The exhibition covers almost all areas of the oil and gas industry – from production to consumption.

The visitors of the KAMAZ stand can see an LNG KAMAZ-54901 freight truck of the K5 generation with a range of 1,400 km on one fueling, as well as the newest R6 gas engine. This 450-hp engine features capacity of 11.6 liters. Thus, KAMAZ’s gas vehicles are on a par with diesel ones by specifications.

The new promising KAMAZ R6 gas engine with a capacity of 450 hp and compliant with Euro 6 emission standards is not the only one advantage of the LNG KAMAZ-54901 truck. It is also equipped with a ZF Traxon automated gearbox with a retarder, a wide comfortable cab with a flat floor and one or two berths. Its cryogenic gas cylinders together contain 1,060 liters. The fuel tank range of the long haul truck is about 1,400 km.

In addition, a number of KAMAZ CNG vehicles are presented out in the open for potential customers. These are a KAMAZ-5350, a KAMAZ-43118, a KS-55713-5L-1 truck crane, a 659118 aerial work platform (AWP), a multipurpose road maintenance vehicle on the KAMAZ chassis, as well as a popular KAMAZ-65115 dump truck.

It should be noted that KAMAZ can produce 8 thousand gas vehicles and 2 thousand gas buses a year. High performance is achieved due to the fact that gas engines, vehicles and buses are manufactured in a single process flow side by side with diesel trucks. Only gas equipment is installed on them in a separate building.

The company also pays great attention to the technical service of NGVs that is quite specific. Thus, the company has fully developed and standardized a technological process, selected proper equipment and tools, organized mass training in well-equipped classrooms. The company’s dealer network is currently being prepared for servicing NGVs throughout the country. KAMAZ’s gas engine vehicles have already proved to be cost-effective in practice.
