The Atom electric vehicle has entered mass production at the Moskvich plant in Moscow, where a dedicated assembly line has been established. The facility aims to reach a production rate of up to 20 vehicles per shift in the near future, with plans to increase output throughout 2027.
The vehicle is built on a proprietary modular platform and utilizes a 150 kW electric motor, equivalent to 204 horsepower. It features a battery and electric drive system supplied by Rosatom. The car offers a range of up to 500 kilometers based on the WLTC cycle and accelerates to 100 km/h in approximately seven seconds.
The design includes a five-link rear suspension and a body made of high-strength hot-stamped steel. A notable feature is the absence of a B-pillar, with doors that open in opposite directions. The interior replaces a traditional central display with a head-up display and a touchscreen integrated into the steering wheel.
The vehicle runs on a proprietary operating system and includes the ADAS 2+ driver assistance suite. For winter conditions, it is equipped with a battery thermal management system and a comprehensive heating package for seats, steering wheel, mirrors, and glass surfaces.
The project involves over 1,000 specialists across development centers in Moscow and Tatarstan. Key stakeholders include Rosatom, Kamaz, the Moscow government, PSB, VEB.RF, the Industrial Development Fund, and the RDIF. Deliveries are currently underway in Moscow and Saint Petersburg.
