UAZ will draw on a SUV hunter new cu Tr for trucks N1G

Although, at the end of last year UAZ safely performer until the end of 2021 "Approval of a vehicle type" (the cu Tr) for their "Commercial series", i.e. "loaf" and "tadpoles" in limbo left it far not the most popular, but no less legendary model – classic SUV "hunter" (UAZ-315196).

Classic look, classic design are the main features of an SUV UAZ "hunter" 

To certify its compliance with the new standards will not succeed without a serious review of the structure, i.e. implementation of not only ABS, and airbags.

Hinged tailgate on "the Hunter" – is not a characteristic of the truck?

If you put anti-lock brake system is still possible (like the system ERA-GLONASS) is already applied on a commercial series UAZ, here's the airbags on such an ancient design to use is not possible.

Place in this ancient interior of the airbag is not real

  So familiar and beloved of all our Jeepers good old "goat" to an end? No matter how well – according to the data obtained by the magazine "AR", Ulyanovsk automobile plant plans to solve this problem is quite simple – having reclassified his SUV from the passenger category M1G in the cargo category N1G, i.e. LCVs with GVW up to 3.5 tonnes that will save him from having to have airbags.

Tungavik firms essentially still category original model – car or truck

By the way, even if the "hunter" will be considered a truck, their nominal capacity is below 1.0 ton, that will not forbid him the entry within the Moscow third transport ring, but for traveling abroad "cargo frame" he needs a little to lose weight – only 20 kg, in order to comply with the limit of 2.5 tons total mass. It is obvious that to achieve this quite easily, for example by simplifying Assembly (for example, moving beyond the spare wheel and tool kit). In any case, there are options.

Main in UAZ "Hunter" today for his fans – the ability to modify the original design for quite sane money

To resume the cu Tr on "hunter" would take several months during which dealers it will cost the accumulated deposits of "goats", which the plant produced in advance. In addition, the demand for "hunter" is still very low (according to the "AUTOSTAT" info – 1293 units, which is 31% less than in 2017), though even ten years ago, was about 15 thousand a year. Now the price of the UAZ hunter in the base set is ₽687 thousand, and in the top version of "Trophy" with other bridges with locking rear differential and alloy wheels is estimated at ₽760 thousand.
