A concept car of a representative class for the top management of Russia, the car ZIL-4112R, was created. It is assumed that the new ZiL will replace the armored Kremlin "Mercedes" or at least share with the German limousines Pullman the task of moving the Russian president and other senior officials of the country.
Continuity
ZiL-4112P was developed by ZAO Depo-ZIL, specialists of this firm participated in the creation of cars for Brezhnev, Gorbachev and Yeltsin. The technical characteristics of the renovated Kremlin limousine show continuity, the exterior repeats the main lines of the previous models. The new ZIL largely reflects the external data of the predecessor, the car ZIL-41047, but the remaining characteristics of the ZiL-4112P differ radically from the model 41047.
Salon
Radical changes were made to the salon, in the new version there were additional devices that increased the level of comfort. Designers "Depo-ZIL" tried to arrange the overall arrangement of the salon as Pullman, so as not to disturb the familiar atmosphere for passengers. But at the same time the new ZIL-4112R has acquired many new products - retractable counter seats, retractable minibars. The refrigerator is equipped with a state-of-the-art configuration. Air conditioning in the cabin is programmed by the onboard computer, in the left zone one temperature can be maintained, in the right one another. Climate control can be controlled by both the driver and any passenger in the cabin, using a simple button.
Tires
The new ZiL-4112P limousine got a more spacious trunk after the spare wheel from the luggage compartment was moved to a special niche under the floor. After it was decided to increase the diameter of the wheels from 16 inches to 18, designers faced the problem of supplying tires of the right size. Tires for the Kremlin limousine brand "Granite" in Russia produced only one plant, the Moscow tire. The factory equipment was not designed for the parameters of the ZiL-4112R wheels. I had to look for a supplier. As a result, the new limousine will be installed tires of American production, used on jeeps Dodge RAM.
Power point
New ZIL (limousine) is equipped with a significant number of electrical appliances and electric drives. In connection with this, the power consumption of the car has increased dramatically. To achieve balance, it was necessary to increase the power of the generator by one and a half times, from 100 amperes to 150. The battery was also changed in the direction of increasing power. The ZIL-4112P power plant is a ZiL-4104 engine with an injector injection of 7.8 liters and a capacity of 400 liters. from. The automatic 5-speed transmission was developed by the American company Allison specially for the new Kremlin limousine. The new ZIL does not need to modernize the chassis. Characteristics of suspensions, brakes, shock absorbers ZiL-41047 fully satisfied the engineers of ZAO Depo-ZIL. The concept car was created, and only one question remained on the agenda - car booking. Work in this direction continues.
