The engine, a ZIL-built pushrod V8, was increased in capacity from 5,980 cc (364.9 cu in) to 6,959 cc (424.7 cu in), resulting in an increase of power by 30 percent (to 300 hp SAE Gross at 4400 rpm and 559 N⋅m (57.0 kg⋅m; 412 lb⋅ft) at 2750 rpm) and of maximum speed from approximately 170 km/h (110 mph) to 200 km/h (120 mph). Transmission was two-speed automatic, with hydraulic torque converter. A three-speed gearbox was offered beginning in April 1975.
