The UAZ Simba is a UAZ designed 4×2 or 4×4 wheel drive minivan concept. The Simba has a wheelbase of 3,000 mm and is a combination of a 7-9-person van and an SUV. It shares many common components with UAZ-3162 SUV. Simba family prototypes were shown at the Moscow Auto Salon in 1999–2005, but did not reach production for financial reasons.[1]

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 manual 5-speed gearbox. The gross vehicle weight (GVR) was 3 tons, maximum speed 142-160 km/h.

Several prototypes have been presented at the car shows:[2]

• UAZ-3165 - minivan with ZMZ-409 motor
• UAZ-Combi - minivan with a high plastic roof
• UAZ-27722 - ambulance
• UAZ-2365 - flatbed truck

La UAZ Simba è un concept di minivan creato dalla UAZ in configurazione 4×2 o 4×4. Il veicolo, con un passo di 3000 mm, è il risultato di una combinazione tra un van da 7-9 posti e un SUV. I prototipi della Simba sono stati esposti al salone dell'automobile di Mosca dal 1999 al 2005, ma il veicolo non è mai entrato in produzione per questioni di natura finanziaria.[1]
