KAMAZ delivered another 40 new-generation A5 KAMAZ-52222 electric buses to Mosgortrans. Including the additional agreement, the total number of innovative vehicles delivered under the contract reached 440 units.
As a reminder, in February 2025, a contract was signed for the supply of 400 KAMAZ-52222 electric buses to the capital's carrier. The parties later signed an additional agreement providing for the transfer of an additional 40 A5-generation vehicles to expand the Mosgortrans fleet. This contract has been successfully executed.
Last year, a major contract was also signed for the phased delivery of 700 KAMAZ-52222 electric buses to the capital. In 2026, 400 units of this innovative transport will be delivered to the customer, with an additional 300 units following in 2027. As in previous years, the contract stipulates 15 years of manufacturer-provided maintenance and repairs for all delivered vehicles.
Serial production of the fifth-generation KAMAZ-52222 electric buses began in 2025, commissioned by Mosgortrans, Moscow's largest public transport operator. Unlike the 2018 KAMAZ-6282 electric bus, the new model has a range of up to 90 km, is equipped with a more efficient climate control system with electric interior heaters, touch-sensitive door buttons, and an 18% larger route indicator.
The door design has been updated: the sliding doors open outward, eliminating the risk of passengers becoming trapped. The width of the storage area has been increased to 1,380 mm, which meets European standards. A dedicated area for wheelchairs has been provided. Carry-on baggage space has been increased by 15%.
The KAMAZ-52222 passenger compartment features ambient reflected lighting with an adaptive function—cool in the morning, warm in the evening. The new electric bus features a more efficient climate control system with air flow distribution to reduce heat loss, an increased number of heaters, and an air disinfection system.
Safety is ensured by an electronic braking system with ABS, ASR, and a hill hold assist system. KAMAZ engineers have significantly improved the driver's working conditions: the driver's workstation has been enlarged, and the number and range of adjustments in the driver's seat have been increased. New options have been added, such as a heated steering wheel and an electronic handbrake. A unique instrument panel with film-type buttons has also been installed. Other effective solutions have also been implemented. The fully low-floor cabin is designed to accommodate 85 passengers, with 35 seats for seated passengers.
