History
"Limo Number One", as the vehicle has been dubbed, was especially made for the head of state and took six years to complete. The six-door ZIL-4112R has a huge 7.7 litre (470 ci) engine, calf-leather upholstery and a video screen to show passengers the road ahead even when shutters are drawn over the windows. It weighs 3.5 tonnes, has a top speed of 125 mph and covers about 18 miles per gallon of fuel.
A new model called the ZIL-4112R. The letter R — the first letter of the surname of Sergey Rozhkov — founder of "Depo-ZIL", who died in 2011. He did so much for the car, so his name is mentioned in the model's name. Rozhkov and Sergey Sokolov are the founders of ZAO "Depo-Zyl"; CEO of the company is currently listed his widow Tatiana Rozhkova.
The ZIL-4112R is currently produced by MSC 6, which became an independent company "MSTS6 ZIL", which rents space from AMO-ZiL and continues to carry out repair and restoration of ZiL passenger cars and assembles new ZIL-4112R limousines.
Design and specifications
This six-door limousine is powered by a 7.7-liter fuel-injection gasoline engine connected to a 6-speed automatic transmission. It outputs 400 hp (298 kW).
Armour-plating will be added once the prototype gets final approval from the Kremlin administration.
Features
The ZIL-4112R features a novel approach to dual-zone climate control. To prevent the two zones of air mixing with each other, an "air wall" separates the two.
