There was a special presentation of the no less special UAZ “Profi”

First Deputy Prime Minister Andrei Belousov examined the electric truck EVM Pro, which was set up at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum (SPIEF-2022), based on the UAZ Profi. Its distinguishing feature is a completely unaffordable price that will deter even a non-poor buyer.

EVM Pro was first shown in February. The AvtoVzglyad portal has already written about the new product, so we will only briefly recall it. Created on the basis of the UAZ Profi, the truck received an electric motor of 116 horsepower and a lithium iron phosphate battery, the supply of which should be enough for 300 kilometers. In terms of payload, the car can take up to a ton of cargo on board. You can’t get away with such a modest indicator, because a third of the charging capacity was “eaten” by the traction battery.

The price of the novelty finally became known on the forum. The financial director of the company, Igor Girdin, said that the final “price” will be 3,200,000 rubles, taking into account state subsidies, and that the “net” price will be less than 4,000,000 rubles. As for the production start date, it is scheduled for September this year. The car will be assembled in the Moscow Technopolis Economic Zone.

In addition, Girdin noted that the cost of owning such a truck would be lower than a car with a classic engine. When transporting a ton of cargo, this figure is 7-8 rubles per kilometer, against 14-16 rubles in the case of a car with an internal combustion engine.

It’s just not clear how long it will take to beat the price of such an electric car. In addition, UAZ does not differ in the quality of assembly, coloring and reliability of many structural elements. As for the brakes, the car was rather reluctant to slow down, and the heavy Pro, and even with a load, will be doubly reluctant to do it. Knowing this, ordinary buyers will prefer the traditional “Profi” or products from GAZ. And innovators can only rely on government contracts. This is probably why the car was first shown to senior officials.
