History
Initially, since 1953, the plant was built in the defense complex system. On September 19, 1957, the decree of the Ministerial Ministers of the RSFSR on the transfer of the buses of the buses of the Mark Paz-651 from the Pavlovsk bus plant to Kurgan and the production of CAVZ-651 buses was based on GAZ-51 car.
In 1986, SVTU-34 opens to the training personnel at the factory.
In the 1990s, in connection with the change in the sectors of the national economy, including rural, the consumer demand for low capacity buses has sharply decreased, the main consumer of which were state farms, collective farms, state-owned enterprises of industry ministries. The decline in production began: if 20 thousand buses were released in 1989, in 1994 - 4 thousand, in 1995 - 1186, in 1997 - 769 cars. The number of workers on Kavze: in 1968 - 1594 people, in 1970 - 2076 people, in 1980 - 3955 people, in 1990 - 4513 people, in 1999 - 3,300 people. By 1993, the plant was prepared and the production of a new family of buses of the carriage layout of aggregate assembly with a capacity of 24 passes was organized. Places, in the amount of 150-200 pcs. in year. It is here in 1992 that the first buses of the Carriage of Kavz-3275, Kavz-32784, Kavz-3278 are manufactured by a higher level of comfort and relevant international safety requirements.
In order to meet the needs of the market in large capacity buses in 1998, technical services are developed by new models of buses on heavy-load chassis ZIL-4331 - these are models of urban and suburban buses of Kavz-422910, 4229-01. Also much attention is paid to the conquest of the market of watches. The model of the Kavz-422990 bus is being developed on the all-wheel drive chassis ZIL with a wheel formula 6 × 6. In addition, in 1998, Kavz returned to the manufacture of watches on the chassis of the Ural, the first party of which was released in 1981.
During the conclusion strategy of the enterprise from the Prebank Accounting State in 2001, the Kurgan Bus Plant developed a school bus, the most fully meets the requirements of GOST to buses for the carriage of children. The first order for the delivery of buses, as part of the program "School Bus", Kavz fulfilled in 2001 in the amount of 55 pieces for the Yaroslavl region. For two years, from the beginning of the implementation of the program, within the framework of the national project "Education", about 3 thousand school buses in all regions of the Russian Federation were manufactured and delivered. This solution to the problem of transportation of schoolchildren in rural areas is interested in the neighboring states. Thus, the first school buses of the Kurgan Bus Plant were already delivered to the Republic of Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine.
March 14, 2006 Open Joint-Stock Company "Kurgan Bus Plant" (TIN 4501022299) ceased operations on the basis of determining the arbitration court on the completion of competitive production.
LLC "Kavz"
On June 19, 2003, Kavz LLC was established (TIN 4501103580), which was included in the "Ruspromavto" holding Oleg Deripaska, who breathed a second life to the plant. In 2005, in connection with the reorganization of Ruspromavto, Kavz entered the "Buses" division of the GAZ Group, which unites the main manufacturers of bus and automotive equipment in Russia.
The entry into the holding discovered before the plant's production development prospect of the enterprise. The management of the company was adopted a strategic solution - an organization at the Kurgan bus plant for the production of middle class of Paz-4230 "Aurora". Since 2003, the production of different modifications of these buses has been established on Kavze. The elongated version of this bus - Paz-4238 "Aurora" began to be issued at the Kurgan Bus Plant in 2006, under the CAVZ-4238 index. In 2008, in connection with the tightening of environmental standards, the CAVZ-4235 model was developed, which was changed on the PAZ-4230 conveyor.
The Kurgan Bus Plant is constantly expanding the geography of deliveries not only in Russia and the CIS countries, but also countries of far abroad. From 2009-2011 The Republic of Nicaragua put 380 Cavz buses designed to update the country's transport park.
In 2013, about 600 people worked at the factory, in 2014 - about 400 people
Today, the enterprise has all the resources to update production: reconstruction, modernization of technological flows is carried out, the newest equipment with numeric software control is purchased for processing pipe blanks, a laser complex for cutting blanks.
Model lineup
At the end of 2007, 50-year-old history of Kargan Capotional Buses of Small Class on the chassis of gas trucks of gas has ended with removal from the production of the Kavz-3976 family. Call-sector production of a semi-arrival bus Kavz-3244, which was carried out by the subsidiary of Vika Ltd LLC, is cooled in 2007.
The production program of Cavza for 2009 consisted of the rearranged high-size buses of the modernized Aurora family of Kavz-4235 and Kavz-4238 for the suburban and interdistrict message, as well as the city low-voltage Midibus Kavz-4239 on the Chinese chassis.
The model range of the plant includes Cavz-4235 and Kavz-4238 Aurora buses in urban and suburban, school modifications. In 2010, the Kurgan Plant held the first stage of restyling basic models. Buses received a modified front mask, a new engine, transmission, electrical equipment. In 2011, the plant began to start the second stage - the buses will receive a new interior.
In 2011-2012 A binding engine Cummins Environmental Standard "Euro-4" to the model range of the plant was binding.
HISTORY OF CAPTER BUSES KAVZ
The release of all Cavz's tract buses was discontinued at the end of 2007 due to the plans of modernizing the enterprise and the transition to the issue of fundamentally new products in the form of urban medium-sized low-voltage buses of model 4239, made on Chinese units (chassis and power installation). Accordingly, the entire production line for the assembly of "Hopes" was "completely reconstructed" (handed over to scrap).
According to the article in the journal "Autorev - Trucks and Buses" for 2008 - the cost of the last capacitor models of Kavz was at the time of the closure of production from 525 thousand rubles, which put this bus out of competition with more expensive and lower products of the Chinese auto industry or containing Chinese components - At the same time, the Baby Cavz-4239 on Chinese Chassis was already estimated at 2.57 million rubles - the price of five trap buses.
In 1998-2007 The subsidiary of Kavza - Vika Ltd LLC produced at the standard chassis ZIL-5301B CAVZ-3244 bus with a capacity of 29 passengers (seat for seating -15) with a diesel engine MMZ D-245 with a capacity of 109 liters. from. with turbocharged. On the elongated Chassis ZIL-5301EO also produced a modification of Kavz-32441 with a capacity of 19-22 passengers.
Watch buses Kavz. On the chassis "Likhachev" chassis and "Ural" (Kavz-422990, Kavz-422991 and Kavz-42243) were issued by limited series in 1996-2003, but during the restructuring of the enterprise, as non-core products were reduced. The last "Vakhtovka" Kavz became in 2004 model 39766 on the All-wheel drive chassis GAZ-3308 "Sadko".

Excerpt characterizing Kurgan Bus factory
- To His Majesty with the instruction.- Here it is! - said Boris, who heard that Rostov had to be His Highness, instead of His Majesty.
And he pointed out to him on the Grand Duke, which is in a hundred steps from them, in a helmet and in the cavalry river, with his raised shoulders and frowning eyebrows, something shouted to the Austrian white and pale officer.
"But this is the Grand Duke, and to me to the commander-in-chief or to the sovereign," Rostov said and touched a horse.
- Graph, Graph! - shouted Berg, the same lively, like Boris, running on the other side, - a graph, I was injured in my right hand (he said, showing a hand brush, bloody, lined with a nose handkerchief) and stayed at the front. Count, I hold the sword in the left hand: in our breed Bergs, a graph, all were knights.
Berg said something else, but Rostov, without hearing him, was already driving further.
Driving the guard and an empty gap, Rostov, in order not to get again in the first line, as he fell under the attack of Kavaleargards, drove along the reserves, far casting the place where the hottest shooting and cannonade was heard. Suddenly there is ahead and behind our troops, in such a place where he could not assume the enemy, he heard a close rifle shooting.
"What could it be? - thought Rostov. - Enemier in the rear of our troops? It may not be, "Rostov thought, and the horror of fear for himself and for the outcome of the whole battle suddenly found him. - Whatever it was, however, he thought, "now there is nothing to go around. I have to look for the commander-in-chief here, and if everything died, then my business to die with everyone together. "
A bad premonition, who was suddenly at Rostov, was confirmed more and more, the further he went into the space for the village of Pratis, engaged in the crowds of heterogeneous troops.
- What? What? On whom shoot? Who shoots? - asked Rostov, evenly with Russian and Austrian soldiers, fucked mixed crowds in the road.
- Does Chort know them? All broke! Loss all! - They answered him in Russian, in German and on Czech crowds running and misunderstanding just like he, what was happening here.
- Bay Germans! - I shouted one.
- And Chort them Deri, - traitors.
- ZUM HENKER DIESE RUESEN ... [To Chort these Russians ...] - something grumbled German.
Some wounded walked on the road. Crossing, screams, moans merged into one common hum. The shooting raised and, as Rostov learned later, they shot each other Russian and Austrian soldiers.
"Oh my God! What is it? - thought Rostov. - And here, where every minute the sovereign can see them ... But no, it is, right, only a few flashers. It will pass, it's not that it can not be, "he thought. - only as soon as possible, quickly drive them! "
The thought of defeat and flight could not be attached to Rostov. Although he saw the French guns and troops on Pratcensk Mountain, on that very, where he ordered to find the commander-in-chief, he could not and did not want to believe it.
Near the village of Pracea Rostov ordered to seek Kutuzov and the sovereign. But here not only did not have them, but there was not a single boss, but were heterogeneous crowds of upset troops.
He chased the tired horse, to speed these crowds rather, but the farther he was fused, the crowds became upset. On the big road, on which he left, crowded strollers, the crews of all varieties, Russian and Austrian soldiers, all kinds of troops, wounded and unreasonable. All this buzzed and mixedly kept on the gloomy sound of flying nuclei from the French batteries set on the pratsky altitudes.
- Where is the sovereign? Where is Kutuzov? - He asked Rostov from everyone who could stop, and could not get a response from anyone.
Finally, grasping a soldier's collar, he forced him to answer himself.
- e! brother! For a long time, everything is there, forward twitched! - said Rostov soldiers, laughing with something and pulling out.
Leaving this soldier, who, obviously, was drunk, Rostov stopped the horse of the twin or Beretor of an important person and began to ask him. The Rentman declared Rostov that the sovereign from his hour ago was taken to the whole spirit in a carriage on this very road, and that the sovereign was dangerous.
"Can't be," said Rostov, "right, another who."
"I saw himself," said the Bunker with a self-confident smile. "It's time for me to know the sovereign: it seems how many times in St. Petersburg it seems that way. Pale, the earliest in the carriage sits. The fourth of the crow as it will sweep, my father, by us thundered: it's time, it seems, and royal horses and Ilya Ivanycha to know; It seems with the other as with the king of Ilya Kucher does not go.
Rostov allowed his horse and wanted to go on. The walking past the wounded officer appealed to him.
- Yes, who do you need? - asked an officer. - Commander-in-Chief? So killed the core, killed in the chest at our shelf.
"Not killed, wounded," the other officer corrected.
- Who? Kutuzov? - asked Rostov.
"Not Kutuzov, but how do you mean him," well, yes, all one, there is not much alive. Won go there, won to the village, there all the bosses gathered, "said this officer, pointing to the village of the hotel, and passed by.
Rostov drove a step, not knowing why and to whom he will go now. The sovereign is injured, the battle is lost. It was impossible not to believe it now. Rostov was driving by the direction that he specified and on which the tower and church were visible in the distance. Where did he hurry? What was he now to speak sovereign or Kutuzov, if even they were alive and not injured?
"This expensive, your welfare, go, and then they will kill it right," the soldiers shouted him. - It will be killed!
- ABOUT! What you say! Said another. - Where will he go? Here closer.
Rostov thought and went precisely by the direction where he was told that they would kill.
"Now it's all the same: if the sovereign is injured, did you really care about yourself?" He thought. He entered the space on which people running from Puzzen died most. The French have not yet occupied this place, and the Russians, those who were alive or injured, have long left him. On the field, like a shock on a good pasha, lay ten people, fifteen killed, wounded at every tithing place. The wounded clutched two, three together, and they were heard unpleasant, sometimes pretending, as it seemed to be Rostov, their screams and moans. Rostov launched a trot's horse so as not to see all these suffering people, and it became scary. He was afraid not for his life, and for the courage that he needed and which he knew would not stand the appearance of these unfortunate.
The French, who stopped shooting along this, destroyed dead and wounded, the field, because no one was already living on it, seeing the adjutant on him, they brought the gun on him and threw several cores. The feeling of these whistles, terrible sounds and the surrounding dead merged for Rostov in one impression of horror and regret to themselves. He remembered the last letter of his mother. "Whatever she felt, he thought," he would have seen me now here, on this field and sent to me to the guns. "
In the village of the hotel there were though confused, but more Russian troops, walking away from the battlefield. There were no French kernels here, and shooting sounds seemed distant. Everyone has already been clearly seen and said that the battle was lost. Rostov applied to anyone, no one could tell him or where there was a sovereign, no where Kutuzov was. Some said that the rumor about the head of the sovereign is fair, others said that no, and explained this false spread of the rumor by what, indeed, in the head of the sovereign, she slipped back from the battlefield pale and frightened Ober Gofamarsal Count Tolstoy, left with others in the emperor retinue On the battlefield. One officer told Rostov, that behind the village, left, he saw someone from the top supervision, and Rostov went there, no longer hoping to find someone, but in order to clean their conscience before himself. After passing the versts, three and passed by the last Russian troops, near the garden, the oked ditch, Rostov saw two riders stood against the ditches. One, with a white sultan on the hat, seemed for some reason familiar Rostov; Another, unfamiliar rider, on a beautiful red horse (this horse seemed familiar Rostov) drove up to the ditch, pushed the horse to spurs and, having released the reins, easily jumped over a ditch of garden. Only the earth sat down from the mound from the rear hooves of the horse. Cool turning the horse, he again jumped a ditch again and respectfully turned to the rider with a white sultan, obviously, offering him to do the same. The rider whom the figure seemed familiar to Rostov and for some reason involuntarily chained his attention, made a negative gesture of his head and hand, and on this gesture of Rostov instantly recognized his mourne, adored the sovereign.
"But it could not be, one in the midst of this empty field," Rostov thought. At this time, Alexander turned his head, and Rostov saw her favorite traits cracked into his memory. The sovereign was pale, his cheeks fell and their eyes fell; But the more charms, the meekness was in his features. Rostov was happy, making sure that hearing about the wound of the sovereign was unfair. He was happy that he saw him. He knew that he could have even had to directly turn to him and convey what was ordered to transfer to him from Dolgorrukova.
But as the in love, the young man shakes and goes, without daring to tell what he dreams about the night, and frightened looking around, looking for help or the possibility of a delay and flight, when the desired minute came, and he stands alone with her and Rostov now, reaching that What he wanted most in the world, did not know how to go to the sovereign, and thousands of considerations were presented, why it was uncomfortable, indecent and impossible.
"How! I seem to be happy to take advantage of the fact that he is alone and in despondency. It is unpleasant to him and heavily may seem unknown person at this moment of sadness; Then, what can I tell him now, when at one glance at him, my heart flies and dries in my mouth? " None of those countless speeches, which he, reversing the sovereign, made it in his imagination, did not come to him in his head. Those speeches kept the part of the part at all other conditions, they stated the most part of the victories and celebrations and mostly on the deathbed of the received wounds, while the sovereign thanked him for the heroic acts, and he, dying, expressed him confirmed in fact His.
"Then, what will I ask the sovereign about his orders to the right flank, when now the 4th hour of the evening, and the battle is lost? No, I decisively should not approach him. Should not break his thoughtfulness. It is better to die a thousand times, than getting a bad look from him, a bad opinion, "Rostov decided and with sadness and with despair in the heart went away, indifferently looking at the sovereign who stood in the same position.
While Rostov did these considerations and sadly drove away from the sovereign, captain von Tol randomly hit the same place and, seeing the sovereign, directly drove up to him, offered him his services and helped go on foot through the ditch. The sovereign, wanting to relax and feeling unhealthy, sat down under the apple tree, and only stopped by him. Rostov from afar with envy and repentance saw the background for a long time for a long time and spoke with the heat, as a sovereign, apparently, closed, closed his eyes with his hand and shook the hand of Tol.
"And I could be in his place?" Rostov thought about himself and, barely holding tears of regret about the fate of the sovereign, in perfect despair went further, not knowing where and why he was now riding.
His despair was the stronger that he felt that his own weakness was the cause of his grief.
He could ... not only could, but he had to drive up to the sovereign. And it was the only case to show sovereign his dedication. And he did not take advantage of them ... "What did I do?" He thought. And he turned his horse and rocked back to the place where he saw the emperor; But no one was behind the ditch. Only drove wagons and crews. From one Furman Rostov found out that the Kutuzov headquarters is nearby in the village where there was an overview. Rostov drove them.
He was ahead of him Beretor Kutuzov, driving horses in his back. Behind the Beretor rose a wagon, and the old man was on the cart, in the carriage, serrated coat and curves.
- Tit, and tit! Said Breitor.
- What? - absently answered the old man.
- Tit! Go to thoroughly.
- E, Fool, Ugh! "I spit angrily, the old man said. It took several times of the silent movement, and again the same joke was repeated.
In the fifth hour of the evening, the battle was played at all points. More than one hundred guns were already in the power of the French.
Pretty with his body put a weapon. Other columns, after about half of the people, retreated with upset, mixed crowds.
The remnants of the troops of Langeron and Dohturova, Mixing, were crowded near the ponds on dams and shores at the village of Aritesta.
At 6 m hour, only the carnone cannona of some French, who built numerous batteries on the descent of Pratcensky heights and who beat our retreating troops were still heard at the auggest dam.
In the terrigard, the dohturov and others, collecting battalions, shot themselves from the French cavalry pursuing ours. It began to be frozen. On a narrow dam of the Augism, on which so many years peacefully satuned in the cap, the older Melnik with rods, while his grandson, having drove his shirt sleeves, moved silver trees in the watering can; On this dam, in which so many years peacefully passed on its paired warrens, loaded with wheat, in the shaggy hats and blue morale jackets and, stuffed with flour, with white valves were left on the same dam, - on this narrow dam now between wagons and cannons, Under the horses and between the wheels, people were crowded by fear of death, gone each other, dying, walking through dying and killing each other for just that, passing a few steps to be accurate. Also killed.
Every ten seconds, the bent air, slapped the kernel or burst into the garnet in the middle of this thick crowd, killing and sprinkling the blood of those who stood close. Shelokov, wounded in her hand, walking with a dozen soldier of his company (he was already an officer) and his regimental commander, riding, represented the remains of the entire regiment. The crowded crowded, they were tried to enter the dam and, compressed from all sides, stopped, because the horse fell in front of the gun, and the crowd pulled it out. One core killed someone from behind them, the other hit ahead and spattered by the blood of Dologov. The crowd launched desperately, squeezed, moved a few steps and stopped again.
To pass these hundred steps, and probably saved; Every another two minutes, and died, probably thought everyone. Shelokhov, who stood in the middle of the crowd, rushed to the edge of the dam, knocking off the legs of two soldiers, and escaped on slippery ice, covered the pond.
"Complete," he shouted, bouncing on the ice that cracked under him, turn together! He shouted on an instrument. - Holds! ...
The ice kept him, but got rushed and cracked, and obviously it was that not only under the gun or the crowd of the people, but he will collapse under him now. They looked at him and fed to the shore, not deciding still to stand on ice. The commander of the regiment, standing by the riding at the entrance, raised his hand and revealed his mouth, turning to Dolokhov. Suddenly one of the cores was so low of the crowd over the crowd that they all bent. Something slapped into the wet, and the general fell with a horse in a puddle of blood. No one looked at the general, did not think to raise it.

The history of the enterprise.
Kurgan Bus Plant (Kavz) - One of the largest bobbing plants in Russia. The plant ranks first in the production of passenger capacates (based on truck chassis) to work on the highway and rural off-road. For more than 50 years of its work, Kavz produced over 440 thousand buses.
The history of the plant began with the transfer of him in the late 1957 production of the buses of the Mark Paz-651a (upgraded GZA bus). It accelerated the launch of the enterprise, and already on January 14, 1958, after the new modernization, the production of the first Kavz-651A buses was established. These were the buses of a capotic type of small class (20-seater) based on the GAZ-51A truck chassis. Kavz-651a was produced for 13 years (1958 - 1971). Subsequent models of buses, as well as the first model, were based on the basis of the modified chassis of the Gorky Automobile Trucks. In the period from 1971 On 1984, a 21-seater bus model of Kavz-685 was produced on the basis of the Krugsky bus factory on the basis of GAZ-53-40 chassis. In 1984, she was rearranged on the base of the GAZ-53-12 chassis, and in 1986 received the Kavz-3270 index. The annual volumes of manufacturing Kavz-685 and Kavz-3270 buses in the 70s - 80s. Reached 18-20 thousand units. The maximum number of cars (20008 units) was released in 1989. The production of these two models was the most massive in history, both the Kurgan plant itself and the world-bus coherence.
In the first five years of its existence, Kavz has reached a very large annual production volume - 5,000 units per year. By 1967, the plant produced already 50,000 buses of the Cavz-651A model.
After the reconstruction of the plant (1967 - 1977), the production of buses was increased, it was possible to increase their quality, and the cost of reducing. In 1974, Kavz released his stothing bus. Since 1977, production volumes have grown by almost 2 thousand units, thus planned to achieve production capacity of 20,000 buses per year.
In 1981, the plant was made more than a dozen prototypes of the CAVZ-52561 model - the suburban bus buses with a high capacity. But the Ministry of the Automobile Industry suspended this project.
In 1982, a significant event occurred for the Kurgan Bus Plant: by the decision of the Supreme Presidium of the Council of the RSFSR Kavz became known as the "60th anniversary of the SSR Union". Moreover, the Kavz-685 m bus received the state award "Quality Sign".
In 1989, the Kavz-397620 model was released. It was a 20-seater bus on GAZ-33074 chassis. Later, the KAVZ-397620 bus was modified under cargo-passenger and special (sanitary, service, etc.) models. In 1993, by lengthening the chassis GAZ-33074 on a wheelbase (from 3700mm to 4550 mm), a 28-seater bus Kavz-39765 was created. In 2001, he was modified by GOST P51160 "Buses for the Transportation of Children" in the Kavz-397653 school bus. The serial production of this model began.
During the crisis of the 90s. The demand for low-capacity buses has decreased noticeably. Production facilities were sharply reduced to about the beginning of the 70s. Debts in front of creditors constantly increased.
The plant had to be replicated to the release of city buses of large capacity due to technical re-equipment of reserve capacity.
In 1993, the production of boats of carriage layout of aggregate assembly, designed for 24 passenger places begins. For these purposes, a year earlier, to create experimental models, a subsidiary of AK "Kavz" LLC "Vika" was created. At the same time, in 1992, the first buses of the Kavz-3278 clock layout began to be produced, Kavz-3275, Kavz-32784. These models have differed in high comfort and complied with international security requirements. The annual output of the car layout buses was 150-12 units.
In 1994, eight urban buses of large capacity of the Ikarus-260 model and two copies of the buses are especially large capacity of the Ikarus-280 model. Two years later, according to the international tender, the city of Yekaterinburg produced 168 units of the Ikarus model-283.10.
In July 1997, the Kurgan Regional Arbitration Court, on the initiative of creditors, made a decision on the introduction of external arbitration in the plant. It helped Kavz to get out of the emerging economic situation. Later, after the removal of external arbitration management, the company again began to work in the same mode of the open joint stock company.
In 1998, at the Kurgan plant began the development of new bus models on the basis of heavy chassis ZIL. Created urban (Kavz-422910) and suburban (Kavz-4229-01) buses. The plant also tried to conquer the market of watches. For these purposes, the production of all-wheel drive buses of Kavz-422990, as well as buses based on the chassis "Ural" was organized.
Releases in 1996 - 2003 Watch buses based on the chassis "Ural" and "Zil" (Kavz-422991, Kavz-422990, Kavz-42243) were limited, and after the restructuring of the plant - reduced, as products that do not match the profile. The latest released watch bus in 2004 was the Kavz-39766 "Sadko" model on the basis of the All-wheel drive chassis GAZ-3308.
At the dawn of the 21st century.
In 2001, the Kavz enterprise became part of the major engineering holding "Ruspromavto", which at that time united most of the manufacturers of automotive and bus equipment on the territory of Russia.
In 2004, the plant began to assemble buses, the development of which was started in 2002 - Paz-4230 "Aurora".
In 2007, the small-sector production of a semi-arrival bus Kavz-3244 was fresh, which was carried out by the subsidiary of Vika LLC. The production of medium-sized city buses model Kavz-4239 was translated into the main conveyor.
In January 2008, the Kurgan Bus Plant celebrated the 50th anniversary. Then the enterprise was restructuring, and the CAVZ-3976 model was removed from production. The half-century history of the buses of the capotic type of small class on the basis of the cargo chassis gas approached the end.
The plant began to increase the capacity for the release of medium buses of Paz-4230 "Aurora".
At the moment, the main products of the Kurgan Bus Plant are the rearranged medium modernized buses for the interdistrict and suburban report "Aurora" Kavz-4235 and Kavz-4238, as well as the urban low-level Midibus based on the Chinese chassis Kavz-4239.

History of the brand KAVZ / Kavz
The history of the Kurgan Bus Plant actually begins in 1958, when the first bus with a capotic layout is released - Cavz 651. It was a model designed on the elongated cargo chassis 51a. In total, 508 copies were released in the first year of production, in 1959 - 1511, and in the 1960s the gates of the plant left 3434 bus. During the first 5 years, Kavz reaches the design capacity of 5 thousand cars per year. By 1967, the plant managed to build about 50 thousand buses. In the same year, an experienced sample of service campaign 685 was produced, the basis of which the chassis GAZ 53 was produced. But the mass production of the model began only in 1971 after long-term tests.
In 1983, the production of upgraded buses of 685m models built on a gas platform 53-12-1040 was mastered at Kavz. Externally, the model almost completely repeated the predecessor, however, since 1984, the trapezoidal radiator lattice has changed recognizable rectangular shape. This, in fact, became the most serious difference between the renewed Kavz 685m from the 685th model produced earlier. In 1986, there was a light upgraded buses that received the identifier 3270. The distinctive external feature of Kavz 3270 is the characteristic roof transition in the windshield zone where the mechanisms of janitors were installed, as well as the information plate with route data. In addition, the rear-view mirrors have undergone changes, and 2 ventilation holes appeared on the roof. In 1989, a new model 3976 began to produce a new model 3976 at the factory in Kurgan.
In the 1990s, a decline in production began at Kavz. After bankruptcy in 2003, the plant was redeemed by the Holding "RuspromAVTO", which in 2005 entered the GAZ Group of Companies. History of Cavz buses who used the Gorky Automobile Plant cargo chassis, ended in 2007 with removal from the conveyor model 3976. As of 2009, a modern model range of Kavz consists of the rear-engine middle-based buses of the Aurora family for a suburban and interdistrict message that radically differ in design from their predecessors. In 2014, the plant started the production of updated environmentally friendly models of CAVZ-4238 CNG and CAVZ-4270 CNG operating on gas. Currently, the company produces buses for use in urban, suburban and long-distance destinations. Kavz became the first plant that developed a school bus satisfying all state standards.
LLC "Kurganskaya Bus Plant" - the world's largest producer of small-class capacities in the world. Today, an enterprise after a series of reorganizations and modernization specializes in the release of bad suburban, long-distance and urban models of the middle class. An important activity is the assembly of school buses that meet strict security standards.
Start
In 1953, the Magnifying enterprise began in Kurgan, which was planned to make military equipment and equipment. However, later the authorities considered that for the country at this stage a more important task is the production of public transport. After changing the profile of activities, the organization was named Kurgan Bus Plant (Kavz).
September 19, 1958, the company was commissioned to establish buses assembling. As a basic model, a development was taken which, in turn, was based on the elongated chassis of the GAZ-51 truck. The CAVZ-651 modification was made until 1971 in a variety of versions.
Simple in maintenance and repair, reliable, with good permeability, data buses-workers got widespread. Although the vehicles are mainly intended for the village, enterprises, watches and various organizations, they became familiar guests on the streets of small cities and megalopolises as public transport.
Kavz-865
In 1971, the older Kavz-651 at the conveyor of the Kurgan Bus Plant changed the new 21-seater model - Kavz-865. It was based on a more progressive chassis of Gorkovsky Automobile Plant GAZ-53-40. From the predecessor, it was distinguished by a more spacious interior, improved design, increased travelery, reliability and an increase in the interval between repairs.
These buses can still be found on the roads of the country. Four-strand workers are able to accelerate up to 90 km / h, but the recommended speed is 60 km / h. A significant disadvantage is the high fuel consumption (24 liters per 100 km). Among the obvious advantages are heated cabin, equipped with soft comfortable passenger seats.
In 1975, the bus restyling was held. In addition to insignificant technical changes, the appearance has changed a bit. In particular, round rear stop signals and lights were replaced with rectangular. The model turned out to be very successful: in 1975 she was assigned a "quality mark". Later (in 1986), improved modifications received the name of Kavz-3270.
Achievements
For the Kargan Bus Plant Kavz-865 turned out to be a sign. The bus of this brand became the most massive in the history of world automotive industry. Every year, the company produced tens of thousands of units. The recorded turned out to be the 1989th - this year the factory workers set the country of 20,008 units of technology.
What is the popularity of the model? First of all, in the unification of the chassis with the gas-53-40 trucks. Accordingly, there were no problems with the search and replacement of spare parts. An important factor was high permeability. In this connection, the main buyers were state farms, collective farms, watches, state-owned enterprises.
Kavz-3976.
In 1989, the Gorky Automobile Plant changed the model range. The place of obsolete gas-53 on the conveyor took GAZ-3307/3309. Accordingly, I had to master a new chassis. In the same year, the factory workers presented a more modern model of Kavz-3976. She was produced without a small 10 years.
The 21-seater bus was equipped with a 120/125-strong traveler motor corresponding to the Euro-2 class. There are various modifications:
- passenger;
- cargo-passenger;
- sanitary;
- watches;
- auto women;
- catafalk.
In market conditions
In 1993, after the reorganization of the enterprise in the Kurgan Bus Plant OJSC, the successor appeared on the world - Kavz-39769. The model is characterized by an elongated chassis base (from 3.7 to 4.5 meters) and a noticeable increase in seats (from 21 to 28). There is a 32-seater modification of Kavz-39769, based on a 5,4-meter wheelbase. She became a prototype for a school bus at 34 seats. By the way, Kavz became the first in Russia, who received a license for the manufacture of specialized school buses.
Unfortunately, the following years have become uneasy for the enterprise. Previously, the main buyers of buses were collective farms and state farms. After their disappearance, sales decreased at times. For some time the plant still produced capotic models for watch, but in 2007 their release was minimized.
Revival
By the beginning of the 2000s, the financial position of the Kurgan Bus Plant was deplorable. In fact, Kavz was bankrupt. In 2003, the enterprise passed under the management of the GAZ Group of Companies, which has a beneficial effect on production activities. The plant was upgraded, updated the model range. Instead of capatic outdated models, the factory workers began to assemble the modern Baby-blind buses of the middle class of the Aurora series.
In 2011, instead of non-environmentalized engines, the Motors of Euro-5 ecostandart began to install Cummins engines. To date, under conditions of import substitution, foreign components are replaced with domestic. In particular, new power plants are tested by the Yaroslavl Motor Plant.
Buses under the brand name can be found in different parts of Russia and the CIS. With hunting they are bought in Latin America. Over long years, the company has produced more than 440,000 units of technology, and this history does not end.
