IZH-27156 White 1988 Year 1/43 Scale Legendary Soviet six-seat car Collectible Model Vehicle - Soviet six-seat Cargo and Passenger car

IZH-27156 - six-seat cargo and passenger version. It was produced in 1988-2001. This modification was intended both for transportation of goods and for short-term transportation of passengers. The design of the car basically repeated model of the cargo van IZH-2715-01, differing from it by the transformed back cargo compartment along which sides two folding double seats were established. In addition, in place of the blind sides of the booth there were two large windows with sliding windows for air flow and glass on the left wing of the rear door. The glass in the partition separating the cabin from the cargo compartment also became sliding. In the cabin at the level of the heads of passengers placed additional soft pads and the ceiling-the ceiling light. In accordance with the requirements of passive safety, many power elements of the body were strengthened. The machine was designed for bulk light-weight cargo. With the increase in the useful volume of the cargo platform, the declared load capacity remained the same. In case of overload of the car the forward bridge was unloaded, and controllability was broken. It is also known that in the nineties on the basis of such pickups "Izhmash" produced for the domestic market a pilot batch of 10 passenger cars — with a "glazed" van. Some of them were used as sanitary cars, but they did not go into series due to poor handling when loading the rear axle.
