Kama plant, which is located in Naberezhnye Chelny, is a leading manufacturer of trucks in Russia. Recently the line appeared 5-ton crane. This model 4308. But also the factory produced and higher gross weight model for 7.8 tons. She was given the index of the 5308. What is this truck? Overview of the vehicle and its technical characteristics see later in our article.
According to the manufacturer, KAMAZ-5308 was created to perform the following tasks:
The KAMAZ-5308 can be produced in different versions:
By the Way, the canopy version equipped with a durable aluminum sides and gates at the rear, which greatly facilitates loading/unloading.
The Car has a modern cabin design. In contrast to the younger model 4308, the KAMAZ got an upgraded crystal optics with integrated turn signals, and new grille. The bumper is also changed and highlights the overall exterior design. But from the side it almost two identical cars. The door and a cutout for a berth at KAMAZ-5308 is no different from the younger model. By the way, for a Supplement, the bumper can be painted in body color. The KAMAZ cabin is very wide. Because of this, to clean the windshield using three janitor. For driver comfort there is a large sun visor. With the aim of better blowing doors on the sides are "gills", painted in body color. As practice shows, they create a slight turbulence, due to which dirt does not stick to the surface of the door. The machine remains clean for many miles.

The total length of the car is of 9.67 meters. Width including mirrors – 2.55 meters. The height of the KAMAZ-5308 – 2.63 meters. The machine has a huge frame, which allowed the installation of loading platform. The Length of the booth 7.2 meters. Even the cheapest version (chassis) is equipped with a 19.5-inch wheels European model. But is otmeal that the large size – this is not only a large capacity box, but low maneuverability. Thus, the length of the rear overhang at KAMAZ – nearly three meters. To move around the city it will be very difficult, the reviews say.
Despite the width, the cab of the KAMAZ is quite small, say reviews. Like most Trucks, there is a very low ceiling (although he is taller than the younger model). By the way, at the top there is a convenient niche and the factory speakers. KAMAZ-5308 – one of the few trucks of this brand, which features music from the factory. Acoustics usually only installed on the main tractors, and then not at all. Front panel design is different from the 4308 to the best. Scale devices is now hidden behind a single glass. Junior models were archaic round dials. Also the model 5308 there is a ledge – the panel slightly angled towards the driver. Now to press any key, the driver does not need to break away from the seatback. It has lateral support. But lower back flows on long distances, say reviews. Also, there is no power window – the Windows only open "oars". Steering Wheel – dvuhsvetny, very large and thin. Drivers say the lack of thermal insulation. To sleep in the winter is very cold, even in the presence avtonomki. The wall has a strange cutout for Windows, which is obviously not conducive to the arrest of heat in the cabin. Weakly apart in the cockpit and ventilation. On the roof there is a hatch of small size, which opens manually.
This truck can be mounted one of three proposed by the manufacturer of the powertrain. They are all from the company "Cummins" from the 6ISbe. The base is a 6-cylinder engine with turbocharging at 245 horsepower. Its working volume is 6.7 liters. Also the buyer offered a more powerful powerplant on 285 forces. Finally, the top is a turbocharged engine 6ISbe, which develops 300 horsepower. Peak torque – 1100 Nm. Remarkably, the entire line has the same working volume.
Kama automobile plant has long been cooperating with German engineers. So, on the truck's latest release is set ZF 16 speeds. The same drivetrain was standing earlier Manah. Testimonials say that the gearbox is highly reliable and smooth gear shifting. As for the speakers, an empty KAMAZ accelerates to hundreds in 40 seconds. But it was not his comfortable mode. The most optimal speed for him – 85 miles per hour. In this mode, the KAMAZ-5308 fuel consumption is minimal. Hundred machine consumes 20 liters of fuel. But it is necessary to take into account windage. Ifthis is a 100-cylinder engine coupling with high awning, it can dramatically overdraw fuel (about 20 percent). Also note that all power units are equipped with diesel particulate filters and meet all current environmental standards.
Unlike the older model, this truck has air suspension. With this load of KAMAZ-5308 can be up to 8 tons. The machine does not change your ground clearance. The only drawback, which is celebrated reviews, – the absence of such suspension at the front. On driven wheels is classical leaf suspension. Consequently, the machine can not boast of high smoothness. Even when fully loaded "nose" of the machine is very rigidly behaves on the bumps. But the “tail” quite gently absorbs – the packaging is intact. Steering – another disease of all Trucks. Even on new models there is a backlash of the steering wheel. On the move have to constantly pick up the car. The reason for that is an old and archaic design of the steering gearbox, which came to us from 5320 on KAMAZ.
The secondary market price of KAMAZ-5308 starts from 1 million 250 thousand rubles. It happens without a trailer, 2010. Coupling type “locomotive” are 500 thousand more. More recent models, 15 years (mileage is about 70 thousand kilometers) are not less than two million rubles with a body of “Board”.
So, we found what has a KAMAZ-5308 reviews and specifications. As you can see, this is a very affordable commercial vehicles in its category. Especially profitable will purchase the hitch. But it is necessary to understand that in terms of comfort KAMAZ-5308 an order of magnitude worse than cars. How would the manufacturer nor announced the collaboration with the Germans, all the same performance characteristics inferior to Europe. On the other hand, it is worth noting the availability of spare parts in Russia and their relatively low cost.
