LAZ 695E

The first sample of LAZ 695E-appeared in the late 1961 onwards. By Laz-695B he differed primarily motor-instead of the ZIL-120FB, with capacity of 120 HP had the more powerful and modern ZIL-130 l (150 HP). Along with the new engine LAZ got clutch and transmission cars ZIL-130. The serial production of Laz-695E began in 1963, but only for a year and only 394 were manufactured from April 1964, the factory has completely moved to the release of the "e" model. Just before the 1969 year manufactured 37916 695E Laz-buses, including export 1346!
Buses LAZ 695E, 1963-1991, was no different from the produced at the same time, Laz-695B buses, except for the roof skylights-instead of three square has four rectangular. It should also be mentioned that since 1964, all buses LAZ-bought new-rounded wheel arches that LAZ 695E-recognizable instantly, but it is important to note however, that the overhaul of the wheel arches may be adapted in the round, but the roof, usually did not touch. Thus, the number and form of ventilation hatches are the only differences between the models and 695B 695E.
Sometimes on the streets there were buses LAZ 695E without glazing-roof slabs, which may have been the origin of the plant (Photo 1), but before the end of their origin or not-it is possible that this is just the buses after the overhaul.
Bus dimensions: 9220h2500h2990 mm (height of air inlet), base-4190 mm.
