The MTB-82 () is the designation of a type of Soviet trolleybus. The rigid buses were initially developed and manufactured by the Zavod No. 82 (Завод №82, Plant No. 82) armaments plant in the Moscow suburb of Tushino. In 1951, series production was transferred to the civilian company Zavod imeni Uritskogo (abbreviated to ZiU), which was located in the Saratov Oblast, RSFSR. This company currently operates under the name Trolza.
The series designation is composed of the abbreviation for Moscow Trolley Bus and the number of the developer company. The employees of the transport company have colloquially designated these trolleys "Emtebeshka," a diminutive of the abbreviation in Russian.
