Built on December 31, 1962 and based on a modified ZIL-135 chassis, the ZIL-E-167 was fitted with two 7.0-liter V8 engines, both of which were located in the rear of the vehicle. The transmissions were from the ZIL-135L. Both front and rear axles were steerable. Air inlets were situated on the sides of the body. The bottom of the vehicle was protected with metal sheets which were meant to improve the vehicle's sliding characteristics in snow. The cab was shared with the BAZ-135 and the wheels were taken from the MAZ-529E.

When factory testing concluded in March 1965 the Ministry of Defence planned to order two more units, but a second prototype was never built.

Mainly due to the complexity of the transmission, the ZIL-E-167 never entered into mass production.
