==History== Although the development of a truck on the base of ZIL-130 with a payload of 8 tons and 6×4 chassis configuration begun in the early 1960s and first prototypes were finalized in 1966, the serial production was postponed many times and begun only in the middle of the 1970s. The first petrol motor was developed on the basis of the ZIL-130 engine and has 140 kW of power with a torque of 441 Nm at 3800–3900 rpm, compression ratio of 7.5 and a cubic capacity of 6 liters. However the need in such a truck family was under question due to the introduction of the new KamAZ plant where the production of a new truck generation with modern Diesel engines and cabover construction was planned.
