In the NEXT generation the presence of a monochromatic series of "GAZ Group" was provided, so that at the Moscow motor show 2014 was even shown a prototype , but... development in the series was delayed for several years (according to the factory workers because of the unsettled number of technological problems). And yet at a recent forum "the Week of national security" Kubinka "GAZ Group" has demonstrated to the public as an all-wheel drive version of mikroautobusaand a pickup truck with double cabin.
As the minibus "Sobol NEXT 4x4" pick – up "Sobol NEXT 4x4" was the original exterior, and that is clearly distinct from the van.
So, unlike van front pickup "Sobol NEXT 4x4" in a less aggressive style. Lights saved almost production of "GAZel NEXT", although the framing of unpainted plastic is also present. For off-road vehicle, especially a pickup, it is quite practical.
