At the end of January 2025, the legendary "Loaf" (UAZ-450) turns 67 years old. To this date, Ulyanovsk residents decided to show what the UAZ-452 car could look like. Sketches by designer Igor Davydov are published for the first time. He created them in the period from 1992 to 1995.
In some images, it is clear that the designer actively worked on the front of the car. The UAZ-452 is noticeably reminiscent of the Toyota HiAce of the second generation with round optics, as well as the Japanese car of the fourth generation after the second restyling.

The car features a high roof, a spacious interior and all-wheel drive. The car is used in various fields, including agriculture and construction.
