The Elite comes from Moskvitsh. Production: 1977. The engine delivers 52 kW, has 4 cylinders, with a displacement of 1,470 cm³. The machine is 4,150 mm long and 1,590 mm wide. The unladen weight is 1,030 kg. The gearbox offers 4 gears. Rated output across the Moskvitsh range ranges from 40.5 to 59 kW; the Elite sits in the upper part of that range with 52 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the PICK UP below it with 40.5 kW and the IZH 2715 above it with 55 kW. Unladen weight across the Moskvitsh range ranges from 1,030 to 1,100 kg; here the Elite sits at the bottom of that range with 1,030 kg. 7 Moskvitsh models are on record.

Moskvitsh – other models: collective page of Izh-2715 pick-ups and estates on Moskvich mechanicals, 1.47 to 1.48-litre engines, 40 to 59kW, 1.0 to 1.1t unladen weight

This page gathers pick-up and estate variants built on Moskvich mechanicals which the register could not assign to a named range – chiefly the Izh-2715, a pick-up based on the Moskvich 412/408, built under licence at the Izhevsk plant (Udmurtia) alongside the Moscow AZLK factory. The designation IC-27151 or IZH 2715 refers to this Izhevsk production, recognisable from the outside by the Moskvich saloon body extended with an open load bed.

The register lists here 7 versions with 40.5 to 59kW output, 1,470 to 1,480cc displacement from four cylinders, 1,030 to 1,100kg unladen weight against a gross vehicle weight of 1,590 to 1,950kg, 4,115 to 4,450mm length and 1,550 to 1,590mm width.

The Izh-2715 served in the Soviet Union and its successor states as a light commercial vehicle for trades, agriculture and private transport, where its simple engineering and kinship with the widespread Moskvich passenger car eased the supply of spare parts, particularly for engine and drivetrain components shared with the saloon.

When buying used, check for rust on the load bed, sills and wheel arches, the condition of the carburettor and ignition system on the four-cylinder engine, the function of the clutch and four-speed gearbox, and the condition of the rear leaf springs under full load; spare parts can still be found through the post-Soviet used-parts trade.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
