The ZIL-4112R has six doors and a 7.7 litre (470 ci) V8 engine and includes calf-leather upholstery and video screens to show the exterior even if the windows are covered. The vehicle weighs 3.8 tonnes, and has a top speed of 125 mph (201 km/h), the fuel efficiency is 11 miles per gallon (25 litres per 100 km).[1][2][3][4][5]
This new model (called the ZIL-4112R) has the suffix R - which is the first letter of the surname of Sergey Rozhkov, his initial was added after the model number due to his significant contributions to the design of the vehicle.[6][7]
Only one car is believed to be produced by MSC6, which became an independent company and continues to carry out repair and restoration work of ZIL passenger cars.
