It is the successor to the MAZ-5551, which has been produced since 1985 . An electrically powered variant was also presented.
description
As with its predecessor, the MAZ-5550 is a two-axle tipper with rear-wheel drive. Technically, the payload could be increased with a similar overall weight. In addition, the vehicles are equipped with more modern cabins. They are only available with a Deutz diesel engine , Russian engines from JaMZ are no longer used. The transmission is supplied by ZF Friedrichshafen . MAZ now buys important parts for most of the newer truck models from Western European suppliers.

Electric vehicle
In 2006, MAZ presented a variant of the truck with an electric drive. In cooperation with the British company Smith Electric Vehicles , a 120 kW electric motor was installed instead of the diesel engine. In combination with four 278 V batteries, a top speed of 80 km / h and a range of 250 km is achieved. It is said to be the first truck in the world in this weight class with a purely electric drive. The project was also carried out under the name Newton , nothing is known about series production.
