The vehicle length is 8,08 m and the minimum outside turning radius is 14 meters. The 1st and 2nd axles are steerable; all four axles are driven. Integral power steering helps decrease steering effort to 10 kgf, thus easing the driver's fatigue. Height of ergonomic low mounted cab is 2800 mm (for reference, the cab height of the 8х6 KrAZ-7140Н6 is 3,17 m); this makes possible the mounting of various special equipments on the cab roof.
