The KamAZ-4310 ( Russian КамАЗ-4310 ) is a truck from the production of the Russian KAMAZ plant in Naberezhnye Chelny . The four-wheel drive vehicle was built in series in different versions from 1981 to 1995, a very similar successor is still on the market today with the KamAZ-43114, also in different versions.

As early as 1971, ten years before the start of large-scale production, the plant presented its first prototype under the name KamAZ-4310. It already had all the essential features that the series model later had: single tires on all axles, permanent all-wheel drive, a tilting driver's cab and the KamAZ-740 engine.

In 1972, pre-series production began, which resulted in a total of four different types. They differed only slightly in construction and were all manufactured until 1978.

In 1981, serial production of the KamAZ-4310 model finally began. Like all previous types, it had only minor changes compared to the original version from 1971 and was very similar in construction to the KamAZ-5320 without all-wheel drive. The main difference was the payload, which increased by one ton to six tons compared to all previous versions. Production continued until 1989. This year the vehicle was revised and received an upgraded version of the KamAZ 740 engine with now 220 hp. Engines with 210 hp had previously been installed. Production was discontinued in 1995 in favor of the modernized successor, the KamAZ-43114 .

From 1987 vehicles of this type came to the German Democratic Republic to be used by the NVA . In particular, these were tank vehicles and box vehicles with special bodies. In addition, VEB Maschinenbau Karl Marx Babelsberg built a total of 17 vehicles of the type 100 car slewing crane with a lifting capacity of ten tons in 1989 and 1990, using the chassis of the KamAZ-43105.
