KAMAZ has started serial production of a new tractor
The enterprise PAO KAMAZ has officially launched serial production of the new tractor model KAMAZ-65955. The new product was created with an eye to difficult tasks in difficult operating conditions, and for this reason stands out sharply against the background of the technical characteristics of its predecessors.
The tractor is equipped with a KAMAZ R6 engine. This is an in-line diesel "six" with a volume of 12 liters. The engine develops a power of 450 hp and a torque of 2100 Nm, which allows it to easily start from a standstill and climb steep slopes even with a maximum load.
Compliance with the Euro-5 standard emphasizes the environmental safety of the vehicle. In addition, there is the possibility of upgrading to Euro-6, and this opens up the prospect of selling the truck not only in Russia, but also on the international market.

The 65955 model features an automated gearbox that shifts very smoothly and saves fuel. The chassis is designed to remain stable when working on construction sites, quarries and other difficult terrain.
The engineers also paid attention to the ease of control: the new cabin features an ergonomic design, increased interior space and a modern climate control system.
Other advantages include high noise insulation of the cabin, a modern multimedia system and advanced active safety options. The latter include automatic emergency braking and lane control functions.

The cost of the new tractor will be 11 million rubles. The trial batch was released at the end of 2024, and in 2025 they plan to manufacture at least 360 more units.
KAMAZ continues to demonstrate leadership in the heavy-duty segment trucks. Based on the results of last year, the manufacturer strengthened its presence in international markets, increasing exports by 15%.
Last year, the company became the leader in the number of sold trucks in the heavy equipment segment, significantly ahead of its competitors. Success is based on many years of experience and the introduction of advanced technologies. For example, not long ago the plant minimized its carbon footprint by establishing waste recycling processes.
