The KrAZ-255B became a notable vehicle after its 1965 debut, replacing the KrAZ-214 with upgraded capability. Its signature upgrades included a V-8 diesel producing about 240 horsepower, hydraulic power assist for steering and an internal tyre inflation system allowing pressure changes from the cab.
Hobby Boss has reproduced these features in a 1/35 kit made up of over 510 parts across 12 sprues. The model contains a full drive train build with engine, gearbox and suspension components, giving builders an in-depth assembly focused on mechanical accuracy.
The kit presents well as a display piece. It includes hollow rubber tyres with realistic tread detail, well modelled wheel hubs, clear glazing for the windows and a single photo etched component to refine the final appearance.
