The ZIL-41047 is a limousine built by ZIL in Russia, although the production of ZIL models ceased in 2010 due to their previous customer base turning to more modern Western vehicles.
Description
The ZIL has seven seats including the driver, the top speed with two people is listed as "no less than 190 km/h (118 mph)". It is powered by a 7.7 L (470 cu in) carbureted V8 engine producing 315 hp (235 kW) and 610 Nm (450 lb-ft) of torque, which drives the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission with the following ratios.
First gear: 2.02:1
Second gear: 1.42:1
Third gear: 1:1
Reverse: 1.42:1
It replaced the ZIL-4104 in 1985 and had virtually no mechanical changes compared with that model. The only major changes have been in the styling, which in some respects, notably in the rear-view mirrors, was subtly modernised compared to the styling of previous ZIL models. The front turn indicators were also modernised, with the rectangular "horizontal line" giving way to a more vertically oriented, "door-like" shape. The front headlights were also restyled, as was the rear parcel shelf.
