In September, the official premiere of the GAZ "Sobol NN" 4x4 minibus will take place. The current generation car is in great demand in the oil and gas industry, among hunters, fishermen and just lovers of car travel in Russia, the "Sobol NN" 4x4 is supposed to consolidate success. But he will not have to rest on his laurels (due to the lack of alternatives) for a long time: Sollers promised to release a four-wheel drive version of its Atlant van.
Viktor Zornikov, Director of Technological Development and Industrialization at Sollers, told this to the Motor.ru resource. The production of such a model is expected in the medium term, that is, approximately within a year or two. Full drive will be connected rigidly, you can order versions with a single rear wheel gear. At the same time, Sollers does not intend to increase the ground clearance, reasonably pointing out that the current 20 cm clearance is quite enough. But whether there will be a low gear is not yet reported.
But it is already known for sure that Atlant will receive a classic automatic transmission. Naturally, Chinese, but rooted in reliable Japanese automatic transmission Aisin - the very ones that are installed on "Toyotas". There will be 6 gears for the automatic transmission.
