Let's take a closer look at him.

KamAZ 55111 is a typical dumper. Usually it is painted in a bright orange color.

In the engine compartment, he has a powerful turbocharged diesel, capable of developing a power of 240 hp. This unit is quite moderate appetite. As the drivers say, the average KamAZ 55111 fuel consumption fluctuates around thirty liters of diesel. It depends on the manner of driving, the amount of cargo on the car, marching conditions and other things.

By the way, the truck can transport fifteen tons of cargo, like crushed stone, construction debris. Or individual units, as shown in the photo. The cubic capacity of the body is 6.6 meters. In principle, this is a bit, but do not forget that often these cars move around human settlements, including those with high traffic density.

For improved and full-value transmission of force from the engine to the wheels of the car, it has a 10- speed manual gearbox. Coupled with two rear axles, it gives the truck quite a good pickup.

By the way, the author of the lines once saw how on the construction site the young driver started on this model (the car was empty) from the place so that the rear wheels slipped, throwing rubble on the workers standing nearby. What caused a genuine interest in the car, and the driver, in particular.

Whatever it was, but the truck is great for both urban roads and for career work. Interesting system of body heating from exhaust gases engineers have implemented for work in the winter period of time. Like, why? The answer is simple - to prevent the adhesion of the load to the body metal.

Since it was a question of winter, it should be noted that the heater in KamAZ 55111 is simply excellent. In the winter cold, in a warmed-up car, at a few dozen degrees below zero outside the cabin, you can sit in it in a T-shirt.

In the latest models, a preheating system is installed in the car. After all, the diesel, despite its positive properties, slowly gaining operating temperature. Moreover, it is low from the very beginning.

In general, if you look at the KamAZ 55111, its technical characteristics are remarkable. As for a car that runs a good mileage every day with a full body load, it has an enviable strength and endurance. The level of maintainability is also high.

Therefore, this truck is one of the most successful developments of the Kama Automobile Plant. And one of the most loved by the drivers.
