GAZ, the Gorky Automobile Plant in Nizhny Novgorod, has built two very different kinds of vehicle that reach the UAE. One is the Volga, the big rear-drive sedan that served Soviet and Russian officials and taxi fleets for decades, now a nostalgic import. The other is the Gazelle light van and its smaller sibling, the Sobol, which remain workhorses across Russia and the former Soviet states. We treat them differently, because a garaged Volga and a delivery van wear out batteries in opposite ways.

From the battery guide
Most Volgas here are kept by collectors or by owners who brought them from home, and they may go weeks without turning a wheel. A parked car still draws a small current for its clock and alarm, and in a hot garage that slow drain deepens quickly. Once a lead-acid battery has been left completely flat a few times, it never recovers its full capacity. A battery isolator switch or a smart maintainer is a cheap way to protect a new one.
The model directory
Choose your model for its own battery guide. The model catalogue is supplied by our vehicle data provider and expanded with locally written fitment notes.
A Gazelle on a delivery round may be started twenty or thirty times a day, often with the cab fan running and body lights or a tail lift in use. The alternator rarely gets long enough between stops to refill the battery, especially in city traffic. For vans like this we suggest a heavy-duty unit at or above the original capacity, and a quick voltage check at every oil change, so a failing battery is caught before it costs a missed delivery.
Over the years GAZ has fitted Russian ZMZ and UMZ petrol engines, and some later Gazelle Business and Next vans use a Cummins 2.8-litre diesel. The Volga Siber was a different case again, built on tooling bought from Chrysler and powered by a 2.4-litre petrol engine. Starting demands vary with each, so we confirm the engine before choosing the battery rather than going by the badge on the grille.

Yes. We come to the depot, site or kerb where the van is parked, test the old battery and the charging voltage, and fit a replacement suited to delivery work. If you run several vans, we can arrange them in one visit.
Not always. A deeply flat battery sometimes takes a charge again, but repeated flattening in heat usually leaves it weak. We test it on site and tell you honestly whether it can be saved or should be replaced.
