Gorky Automobile Plant (GAZ) has completed the transfer of gasoline and bi-fuel modifications of "Gazelle Business", "Sobol Business" and "Gazelle Next" to an enhanced 5-speed КП 330 gearbox. This was reported by the company "Modern Transport Technologies".
GAZ introduced КП 330, originally developed for diesel modifications of "Gazelle Next". This unit is capable of withstanding torque up to 330 N·m and replaced the previous КП 250, which is currently produced only as spare parts.
The new unit is made of three body parts and is equipped with a spacer with an intermediate shaft support. Instead of a movable splined connection, a flange connection is used - this increases the transmission's resistance to loads.
The gearbox received modernized synchronizers for the first and second gears, as well as an enhanced fifth gear - GAZ expects to increase the unit's service life under intensive operation.
The transition to КП 330 began in March 2025 with all-metal "Gazelles Next", then in September "Gazelle Business" and "Sobol Business" 4×2 were modernized. Since November, the new transmission has been installed on the onboard modifications of "Next", and since December - on the all-wheel drive versions of "Gazelle Business" and "Sobol Business".
