The Simba was based on an enhanced UAZ Simbir platform. The Simba family provided for the modification of a long 3000 mm wheelbase which contained a 250 mm rear overhang. The Simba's roof was 460 mm taller than the Simbir's, which allowed to increase the capacity up to 13 passengers. UAZ-3165 provided UFG 249.10 capacity of 132 hp or turbo diesel ZMZ-5143.10 capacity of 98 hp and a mechanical 5-speed gearbox. The Gross Vehicle Weight (GVR) was 3 tons, maximum speed 142-160 km/h.

  • Minivan UAZ-3165 with ZMZ-409;
  • UAZ-Combi - minivan with a high plastic roof;
  • UAZ-27722 - Ambulance
