: improve the technical stuffing, tighten the design. All these innovations are on hearing and in sight. And around the Ulyanovsk "old men" cabovers (more than 60 years on the market!) The information background is not so dense. Many do not even know that these cars have also seriously changed in recent years: they have gained power steering, disc front brakes, and a five-speed manual gearbox. Passenger "loaves" without fail equip ABS.
And at the beginning of this year, the cabover family was again modernized. To evaluate the updated UAZ‑390945, I went to Ulyanovsk.
Evolution of a classic
While flying in an airplane, I studied the changes made. The list is, frankly, short.
This is really not a radical modernization, - the chief engineer of UAZ Evgeny Galkin anticipated my question. - Our cabovers are the most affordable 4x4 commercial vehicles on the market and are valued for that. Here's last year's sales data: everyone sank except us! If the model is radically updated, the price will increase significantly - and we will lose our main competitive advantage. Therefore, we decided to improve the car pointwise. The main criticism of buyers was caused by a weak frame: cracks in it were not uncommon, especially in the places where the power steering and body supports were attached. We have introduced an additional reinforcement in these areas, increased the thickness of the crossbar, and the complaints should come to naught. In addition, the frame and the body are now separated not by an ephemeral gasket, but by a soft cushion that effectively absorbs vibrations - it is easiest to identify the “tadpole” of 2016 by it.
Visually distinguish the car will help modified front bumpers with flexible plastic elements at the edges. It is unlikely that this decision will be approved in rural areas. “Safety requirements,” Galkin throws up his hands.
The machines coming off the assembly line are still not encouraging with uniform gaps. However, regular customers have always turned a blind eye to this. But they regularly complained about the weak corrosion resistance. Now the problem should go away: since last year, cabover bodies have been primed in a cataphoretic way and painted with modern enamels on the Eisenmann line.
The interior has been redecorated and new seats installed. The front ones are trimmed with solid fabric, with fine-tuned padding and integrated headrests. And finally, longitudinal adjustment appeared - how many generations of drivers dreamed about it! Seat movement range - 150 mm. After paying 5000 rubles, get electric heating. I won’t be surprised if ventilation is introduced in a year or two. Just kidding. In my list of expectations on the top lines are decorative casings on numerous transmission levers, as well as getting rid of the handbrake lever sticking vertically out of the floor. Whether these simple improvements will ever be implemented, I don't know.
The primitive instrument cluster has sunk into oblivion. Now in the center of the front panel (it is still old-school, metal) there is a speedometer, into which a liquid crystal display is inscribed - secondary data is displayed on it. Along the edges of the speedometer is a 12-volt outlet and a slot for a single-din audio system. Below is a push-button lighting control unit, which replaced the antediluvian retractable switch.
The Ulyanovsk residents decided not to stop there and - to walk like that! - they abandoned the ancient “bone” donut in favor of a more comfortable plastic one. And under it they installed a pair of modern paddle shifters. Before there was one, a tractor type; it took an incredible amount of effort to flip it. Relays and fuses no longer play hide-and-seek - they were arranged in a single block. Trivia? An unpretentious client will be happy with these little things that make the car more comfortable.
As before, a block of the engine compartment rises in the middle of the cabin. But if earlier it was covered with a thin layer of leatherette, now the surface is covered with carpet, which is much better insulated from noise. For the sake of silence in the cabin, the ceiling was covered with needle-punched material: the sound passes into the holes and dissolves there. But this is in theory, but in practice? Now I’ll check, since I have a Farmer with a two-row cab at my disposal.
Shut up if you can
Out of habit, he poked the front panel with the key and almost scratched it: the ignition switch was not in the old place - he moved to the steering column. A second, and the engine comes to life, filling the cabin with a light velvety rumble. And it's really quiet!
According to our measurements, the level of internal noise has decreased by 5-10 decibels, depending on the driving mode. By 2016, we adapted the engine to Euro-5 economy standards. In preparation for the new standards, the engine management program had to be rewritten, after which it began to work more balanced, and most importantly, fuel consumption was reduced. It saves about one and a half liters of gasoline for every hundred kilometers. Not bad, right?
Not bad, Comrade Chief Engineer, not bad.
Compared to the previous Farmer, the new one starts calmly, without convulsions and shudders - it picks up speed cheerfully. The clutch, however, grabs at the very top. But nothing, got used to it. I'm also used to the sweeping shifts of the five-speed mechanics.
The smoothness of the ride and the energy intensity of the suspension are impressive. Even the monstrous kind of pit the Farmer passes with barely noticeable swaying. That is why Ulyanovsk cars are so valued in regions with dead roads! UAZs are also loved for their excellent cross-country ability. I dangled around the back streets of the factory territory in order to plant a car. In vain. He overcame all the proposed obstacles on only one rear wheel drive. Only a couple of times I had to connect the front axle, and it didn’t even come to a downshift.
For those for whom the all-terrain qualities of the UAZ are not enough (there are some), from July they will offer a version with a rear cross-axle differential lock. Jeeper's dream! She will apparently raise the bar to a very high level. I hope that in the summer, when the car with blocking falls into our hands, we will find a worthy obstacle for it.

UAZ 390945 owner reviews
- Vasily, Kursk. I bought a Farmer for a summer residence. I must say right away that his motor is voracious and does not go at all. But for rural roads, that's it. I rarely drive on this, so I'm not afraid of fuel consumption. It comes out about 20 liters per 100 km.
- Anatoly, Taganrog. The all-terrain vehicle performed well wherever I used it. Its main disadvantage is the fuel consumption of 22 liters, which is offset by excellent off-road capabilities.
- Alexander, Rostov. My car consumes an average of about 15 liters. I operate the car in the village, as expected. So she is in her element. I do not recommend accelerating on the Farmer, otherwise the consumption will increase to 20 liters or more. Therefore, I drive in high gears and low revs - it turns out much more economically. In general, this car has completely different advantages - cross-country ability and carrying capacity.
- Kirill, Minsk. The car is worth the money. This versatile SUV has never let me down. I ride on ruts, potholes and fords. For such cross-country ability, it’s not a shame to give up 25 liters of fuel.
- Yaroslav, Tomsk. My all-terrain vehicle requires increased attention. I mean gentle handling of the gas pedal and gearbox. This affects fuel consumption. For example, when driving uphill at high engine speeds, the car consumes about 20 liters. So in such conditions it is better to immediately switch to fifth gear.
- Maxim, Donetsk. The car is worth the money, it consumes about 19-20 liters in the city, but it helps out everywhere and is very reliable. I operate mainly in winter and in bad weather.
- Oleg, Dnepropetrovsk. I bought a used car, and immediately went to ride off-road - to test not cross-country ability, but fuel consumption. There are no problems with the first one, but with the second it is better to immediately switch to gas. Otherwise, you will not stock up on gasoline. In general, I immediately installed HBO and do not worry. Now for me 20 liters per 100 km is not a problem. Only in the cabin it began to stink of gas, I had to open the windows slightly. In the most economical mode, the car consumes 17 liters.
- Nikita, Tambov. I am very pleased with my Farmer, he saves everywhere. But he is most comfortable off-road. I overcome off-road effortlessly, in higher gears. Because of this, I manage to spend 15 liters per 100 km.

With its help, you can disable the drive that drives the front axle. The angles of arrival and departure are extremely large. For this reason, problems with overcoming obstacles will never arise.
"Farmer" moves well on hilly terrain and off-road.
Dependent suspension is used - both front and rear.
Its main structural elements are semi-elliptical springs and paired shock absorbers (on each axle). If necessary, you can replace drum brakes with disc brakes.
The car is somewhat difficult to drive. Affect the large diameter of the wheels, as well as a very aggressive rubber tread.
If necessary, you can install power steering in this car: today such a pleasure will cost only 20-30 thousand rubles. Given the cost of the UAZ itself, this is not so much.
Refueling tanks
The car in question can only be operated if there are the required volumes of filling tanks inside the engine. Their number is as follows:
The number of filling containers that are filled into the car may decrease over time for various reasons.
There are certain consumption rates, they are calculated for every 100 liters of fuel:
- engine oil, l - 2.2;
- transmission lubricant, l - 0.2;
- special oil, l - 0.05;
- lamellar lubricant, kg - 0.2.

Drivers' reviews on fuel consumption UAZ 390945
- Viktor, Kyiv. UAZ 390945 "Farmer" I took for transportation from dacha to dacha. Of course, this is not a racing car, you feel comfortable on country roads, but on an intercity highway, neither speed nor power is enough. On average, it eats about 20 liters, so it is rarely used.
- Artem, Saransk. My all-terrain vehicle UAZ 390945 2001 Bought for trips outside the city. I work mainly in rural areas, so there are no complaints about the carrying capacity and cross-country ability. The lack of soundproofing is a major hindrance. Consumption is large - up to 22 liters of gasoline.
- Ilya, Novgorod. UAZ 390945 2000, 2.7, MT. Living in the countryside, I travel daily. For many years, the car has been serving its intended purpose - transporting goods. Breakdowns happen very rarely, you can repair it right in the field, this is its great advantage. If you do not accelerate, then the average consumption is 15-16 liters.
- Vladislav, Perm. I bought UAZ 390945 ten years ago and I can say with confidence that the money was well spent. A car will never let you down, even if something breaks down (and this happens rarely), it will always reach the house. Given its ability to drive on any road, a consumption of 20-25 liters does not seem like a lot.
- George, Kazan. For all its power and reliability, the Farmer must be handled with care, the gears should not be torn, the pedals should not be sharply pressed. Fuel consumption directly depends on the choice of the road or its absence and the speed of movement: from 17 to 25 liters.
- Nikolai, St. Petersburg. Having bought UAZ 390945 in 2003, I have never regretted the purchase. I operate it daily and load it very hard, while it takes out on any road, even with a good slope. Gasoline consumption is considered normal: an average of 20 liters.
- Dmitry, Kaluga. UAZ 390945 2005, 2.7. I took it from the owner in good condition, drove off-road, checked the patency and consumption. After calculating the cost of gasoline, I installed gas. Since then, material costs have dropped significantly. Gas consumes a maximum of 17 liters.
- Jacob, Sochi. UAZ 390945 for me as a working partner, does not fail, rarely breaks down, starts up in any weather. Off-road is his native element. I am very pleased with the purchase. I have a 2000 model, it eats 15-20 liters.
