At the beginning of this year from the conveyor Volgograd tractor plant named after F. E. Dzerzhinsky descended the two millionth car. This work gift of Volgograd rural operators, their contribution to the implementation of the Food program in our country. Machines with the brand of VGTZ can be found in the USSR and abroad. Forty percent of all arable tractors, sent to the village, made in Volgograd. Their excellent driving quality, simplicity in work was praised by farmers. The same age as the first five years, the world’s largest tractor plant built in unprecedentedly short time — 11 months. In June 1930 with its main Assembly line produced the first tractor STZ-1. For four years, was released whiter than a hundred thousand of these machines. Soon in the shops of the Stalingrad tractor turned wide competition for the acquisition of new equipment. The experience of his organization picked up and other engineering plants.LANDMARK – ENERGY SATURATION
At the beginning of this year from the conveyor Volgograd tractor plant named after F. E. Dzerzhinsky descended the two millionth car.

Among the hundreds of companies included in the clip the global automotive industry, there are many of those who were destined to lay as the Foundation of modern automotive industry and major design and design trend of designing cars. However, only few of them became famous producers of the most prestigious cars. Among them, the French firm Bugatti, reached in his time a genuine heights in the automotive industry through design and organizational talent of its founder — Ettore Bugatti. By the way, brilliant Creator of vehicles were self-taught — for some reason, the Maestro was not able to obtain an engineering degree.
From the devastation of the civil war Petrograd began to rise by the middle of 1920-ies. Respectively, began to grow and the population of the city, considerably departing from 1918 to 1920. The only form of public transport in Petrograd was a tram, but the cars are too worn down and dilapidated over the years of the First world and Civil wars. Naturally, to return the city to normality was needed and the restoration of the tram system, which has taken a number of measures.
The debut of the first Soviet diesel truck yaz-200, developed at the Yaroslavl automobile plant, held in 1945, was successful. After the traditional show of the new machines in the Kremlin party and state leaders of the country truck recommended for serial production.
Autumn the evacuation of 1941, which resulted in the defense enterprises of the capital was transferred to the East of the country, has transformed a provincial town, which was the Ulyanovsk, Chelyabinsk and Miass, in the largest industrial centers, producing goods for needs of red Army. Thus in the Urals city of Miass appeared one of the most powerful Soviet enterprises for the production of military vehicles.
Readers of the older generation, of course, well remember during the last war. Autumn impassability of roads, forty-one, broken tracks and wheels, smeshannye thousands of feet, frontage roads pitted with craters-graders. And the impotence of the machinery such enduring and seemingly unpretentious trucks and trentodoc, mounted, “on diver” every two hundred metres. In those years in off-road conditions clearly emerged (and later confirmed repeatedly) that designers of transport equipment, not forgetting about the usual machines adapted for movement on the road, you need to pay more attention to the all-terrain vehicles. The country needed a wheeled all-terrain vehicles, combining the speed of “normal” and indifference to road conditions tracked vehicles.
Came to the end of the Second world war, however, to stop the developing course of the military “machine” was not easy. The fighting was over, however, the industry is yesterday’s allies continued to produce military equipment and to create new types of weapons. One of the reasons for this were civil and national-liberation war in East and South-East Asia, generously sponsored by on the one hand the United States of America, and on the other by the Soviet Union. While testing a testing ground for the warring parties supply of military equipment were Korea and Vietnam.
With the beginning of car production appeared a clear division of these vehicles-freight and passenger. However, Americans are farmers or those engaged in small business – I needed a versatile machine, combining the qualities of the first and second. And they began to trim the cars body rear end and instead install a cargo platform. The initiative quickly picked up the industry by launching the serial production of vans modification called “pickup”. The main manufacturers of such machines in the US have the largest car company -Chevrolet and FORD.
The history of “picaporte” in our country, opened the car GAZ-4 with a lifting capacity 0,5 t, launched the series in 1933. The development of machine production did not require much cost: it was only during that time a serial domestic passenger car GAZ-A, equipped with standard twin cabin from the lorry GAS-AA with a metal loading platform with dimensions 1,6×1,1 m, with a folding wooden benches for six passengers.
Pickup GAZ-4 in the Soviet Union enjoyed a well – deserved popularity – it acquired trading bases, small businesses and cooperatives. In 1936, at the Gorky automobile plant is the GAZ-A, the basis of the pickup GAZ-4, launched a series of GAZ-M1. Factory designers and engineers quickly developed a relatively inexpensive technology of serial production of pickup on the basis of “emka”, the designation GAZ-415.
