The premiere of MAZ-X tractor unit produced by the Minsk Automobile Plant together with its partner, AMB–Engineering company, took place in Moscow. It is known that MAZ-X has a high level of localization: the share of Belarusian components is 50%, the share of components from friendly countries is 30%.
The novelty has a 220kW diesel engine (300 HP) and two electric motors capacity of 200 kW each. In addition, an additional 10 km is provided by a buffer energy storage with a recovery system.
