Compared to the previous model with an open body “Phaeton” and folding canopy, a new car with a five-seat all-metal body-sedan was not an example of more comfortable.
 
The car was produced and called GAZ-M-415 in the form of a truck-pickup truck. Further development of “emka” was in 1940, the car GAZ-11-73 with the more powerful (76 HP) 6-cylinder engine. The car got a new grille and a modified form of the vents on the hood sides.
