What drivers and passengers did not like about PAZ-672

This modest bus is well known to the older generation: wherever you meet it! The workaholic-PAZik had a huge number of modifications and could be seen anywhere: on rural roads, at factory gates, on city streets, in military units, and even near morgues, where it was used as a hearse.


Despite the simplicity of the design, the inside was cozy in terms of design: the darkened upper windows created a panoramic effect, the seats were soft. However, the car created in 1967 had its drawbacks, which were fully felt by both passengers and the driver. The latter was not very comfortable when it was necessary to prove to the authorities that the PAZ-672, even on the highway, did not fit into the 20 liters of gasoline declared by the manufacturer per "hundred". What if it's in the city? Despite many modifications, the car often overheated in regions with a hot climate and in mountainous areas.

In a video on the Technique of Time channel, the author tells what difficulties passengers had to face. And the lack of seats, when the leadership of motorcades changed a capacious bus for a small PAZik, for reasons of economy, is not the biggest problem. For example, you will understand why passengers wanted to sit closer to the driver. And what else this worker remembers, you will learn from the video.
