The History of Romanov Avtomobili

Thanks for the feedback guys! It will be included in future builds.

Also, the longer I look at the chrome line of the grill, the more it bothers me. Hng.

Even in the cold of Russia, with its endless Tundras, fuel conomy has become an important topic.
For the purpose of trying to find the balance between performance and fuel economy, Romanov developed the "Ermitage". The 1l Turbo engine rarely visits the gas station and still manages to offer about 100 hp.
A naturally aspurated engine is going to follow, as soon as our engineers have figured out how to build a suitable engine without having to rebuilt the car from scratch...

Nice work; good economy with low production units and costs

Thanks, utopian!


Now, Romanov would like to present (with a bit of pride) the Katusha.

having made the second place in the "Family Hauler" competition, against a strong lineup of competitors from all over the world.
Today, we want to take a closer look at the concept behind the Katusha and how reasonable costs allowed us to show most of the competition the small exhaust.

With the Katusha, we focussed on two things in particular: Reliability and low running costs.
At the same time, we didn't want to make too much of a compromise between power and economy. A modern single overhead cam with 4 valves per cylinder combined with 4x carbs allows for the decent fuel economy while churning out 113 hp.
