ZIL-111G

Description
The flagship of the Soviet car industry during the mid-1960s: The ЗИЛ-111Г / ZIL-111G.

This is a modernized version of the ZIL-111A, which it replaced in 1962 as the largest and most luxurious automobile of the Eastern Bloc. It was built at the Likhachev plant in moscow.

Compared to its predecessor, the exterior design of the car was updated to the taste of the 1960s, featuring dual head- and taillights, while the tailfins were removed for a more serious look.

The ZIL's main features were a powerful V8 engine, an automatic transmission, air conditioning and many other luxury features like electric windows.

The look and technical features of this model are inspired by contemporary American full-size-cars, such as the 1961 Cadillac Sedan DeVille. In this way, the Soviet car industry aimed to show its capability to produce modern luxury cars equal to those of American manufacturers.

In contrast to its American counterparts, this model was built in very limited numbers: Only 26 cars between were built between 1962 and 1967. All of these cars were owned by the Soviet state and were mainly used at parades, diplomatic events and for transportation of the top Communist Party officials.

On Moscow's main streets, special "ZIL-lanes" were established exclusively for cars like this, so the communist party officials could avoid traffic jams and always reach their destinations in time.


Technical specs:
-Capacity: 7 people
-Empty weight: 2.6 tons
-In-game top speed: 90 km/h (In real-life it could reach 170 km/h)
-Transmission: 2-speed automatic with torque converter
-Engine: 6-litre-V8 producing up to 200 horsepower
-Built between 1962 and 1967

Available colors In-Game:
-Black
-White
-Turquoise
-Red
-Dark blue
-Green

Have fun with this mod!

Do you think you could do a Trabant 500/600 with both a Standard and a Universal/Kombi version? It's the only version of the Trabant not fully represented in this game. (There is a P50 by Norch, but it only had the Standard and not the Universal/Kombi. If you just want to make the Universal version in scale with that one I totally get that, but it would be cool if we had a matching set by the same creator.

Thanks for the feedback!

More ZILs might come in the future, but they take a long time to model ;)
