The NefAZ-5299 bus is one of the most popular types of municipal transport in Russia. A contemporary of the new century, born in its still short life, it has already sold more than ten thousand copies in the car parks of the entire large country.

Description of the bus

Indicative for assessing the reliability and running characteristics of the NefAZ-5299 bus is the fact that it is based on the chassis of the time-tested, road and off-road cargo serial KamAZ-5297. Tubeless wheels with steel rims, an all-metal body with square tube stiffeners, dual-circuit pneumatic control and monitoring equipment that meets international standards, power steering - nothing new, but durable and safe.

The bus is equipped with an anti-lock braking system as standard.

The driver's cab is separated from the passenger compartment by a noise-dampening glass partition and is equipped with a loudspeaker. The set of adjustments and suspension of the driver's seat are not as modern as we would like, but they allow you to get comfortable behind the wheel.

Entrance doors are opened from the cab using pneumatic mechanisms.

Ventilation is natural, through roof hatches (there are three of them in a city bus) and side window vents.

The heat from an autonomous liquid or gas heater, which is also a pre-heater for the engine, is evenly distributed throughout the cabin, because the system elements are located around the perimeter of the bus.

The number of seats and the total cabin capacity depend on the modification of the NefAZ-5299 bus.

The overall dimensions of the base model are 11700 × 2500 × 3100 mm. The wheelbase is 5840 mm. The curb weight of the bus is more than ten, and the gross weight is eighteen tons. The load is distributed unevenly along the axles: 6.5 tons on the front and 11.5 tons on the rear.

The ground clearance is 285 mm, the minimum turning radius is 12 meters.

The maximum speed of a city basic bus with a diesel engine is 74 km / h. Suburban ones accelerate to 96 km / h, and speeds higher than this on most Russian roads are not required.

A four-speed automatic is installed on, and a five-speed manual transmission with four synchronizers is installed on suburban ones.

Bus modifications

The popularity of the NefAZ-5299 bus is evidenced by a large number of modifications: since the beginning of production, there were forty-two of them.

The basic model is intended for transporting passengers within the city. The total capacity is 105 people, there can be 25 seats. This bus has three wide doors, the configuration can be either a diesel or gas engine, almost all modifications have an automatic transmission.

In addition to the fact that most of the city bus modifications are low-floor, they are also equipped with a forced body tilt system.

Suburban modifications have a smaller capacity - 89 people, but they are equipped with more comfortable tourist seats, adapted for long trips.

Intercity NefAZ-5299 with one door has 43 seats and is equipped with luggage compartments. Comfortable car seats with reclining backs and armrests, air conditioning and radio make long journeys less tiresome. A separate modification is produced for intercity transportation in the north. It has additional and storage batteries, electric heating of the fuel intake, a tank for heating the fuel before starting.

If the suburban modifications are all medium-floor, the city buses are also made in semi-low-floor and low-floor versions with ramps for passengers with disabilities and a special place in the center of the cabin for a wheelchair.

Bus service and repair

Most of the units and assemblies of the NefAZ-5299 model have been tested on serial trucks, they are well known to specialists, so their repair and service do not cause problems.

The high degree of unification not only reduced the cost of assembling buses, but also simplified and made repairs cheaper. You can buy spare parts from official KamAZ dealers, and their network is quite extensive.

Commuter bus ride

Suburban NefAZ-5299 is designed for 45 seats, and almost the same number of passengers can stand. It has two doors located on opposite sides of the body, making the passage uncomfortably long. And if you consider that the seats with armrests are wide enough, then the passage can also be considered narrow, where it is difficult for two passengers, especially in warm clothes, to miss each other.

In addition, in suburban buses, people, as a rule, travel with shopping bags, which are simply nowhere to go in the NefAZ-5299 model. The seats are close, the legs should be placed, and the shelves above the heads are narrow. The luggage compartment in the bus is provided, but its practical use is highly questionable. It can be used by passengers traveling from the beginning to the end of the route; at intermediate stops the driver does not come out to open and close the lid again.

What is convenient for passengers is the large doorways, which are well lit in the dark, and the low steps - the modifications of suburban buses are all medium-floor.

The characteristics of the NefAZ-5299 bus make it very popular throughout the Russian Federation.

A well thought-out design, equipment for disabled people in many modifications, air conditioners are convenient for passengers, Good visibility, modern electronics and a fairly comfortable seat are advantages for drivers.
