The KamAZ-5511 ( Russian КамАЗ-5511 ) is a truck produced by the Russian KAMAZ plant in Naberezhnye Chelny . The vehicle was the manufacturer's first tipper and was built in series from 1977 to 1990. A very similar successor is the KamAZ-55111, which was manufactured until 2012.

The development of the tipper began in 1972, at a time when the manufacturing plant in Naberezhnye Chelny did not even exist. This prototype received the designation KamAZ-5510, which was not retained for the production model. Large-scale production began in 1977, with Neftekamski Avtosawod supplying the bodies. The steel troughs initially held 7.2 cubic meters and can also be heated by passing the vehicle's exhaust gases through. This prevents wet cargo from freezing at low temperatures.

From 1980, the KamAZ-55102 version was also built, a tipper specially designed for agriculture. The permissible payload has been reduced to seven tons. At the same time, the tipping body was enlarged, especially for bulky goods. In contrast to the basic model, it was also designed with a horizontal base. In addition to this version, vehicles were also specially built for cold and tropical climates.

A major revision took place in the 1980s. The trough was shortened by about half a meter to prevent the vehicles from being overloaded. This step reduced the cargo volume by around 0.6 cubic meters.

The KamAZ-5511 tippers were built until 1990, with the successor KamAZ-55111 being manufactured in parallel since 1988 . Some KamAZ-5511 also came to the GDR .
