production was set up at the plant from
January 1948. Serial production began on April 27 of this year, and production of the ZIS-5 was finally halted three days later. From 1951, the ZIS-150 was also produced in the Kutaysky Avtomobilny Zavod. In 1956, Stalin's name was erased and the manufacturing plant was renamed Zavod imeni Likhacheva (Завод имени Лихачёва). In the following year, production of the vehicle, now called the ZIL-150, was discontinued in favor of its successor, the ZIL-164, which however was basically nothing more than a modernized and modified variant of the ZIS-150 truck. A total of 774,615 ZIS-150 vehicles were produced in various versions.

362:, its new developments were strongly influenced by American truck construction. This applied in particular to the design, but also to the widespread installation of gasoline engines instead of diesel engines. In 1938, the Stalin Works presented the newly designed vehicle under the name ZIS-15 (ЗИС-15). The ZIS-15 had a newly developed chassis, an advanced engine with an output of 82 hp (60 kW) and a new all-metal cab with three seats.

system, which now also allowed trailers to be coupled to the vehicle's main braking system. Visually, the vehicles differed mainly in the modified radiator grille, the struts of which now ran vertically instead of horizontally. The chassis has been revised, as has the cabin. In addition, an engine preheater was installed and other minor adjustments were made to keep the truck operational even at low temperatures.

rear axle had twin tyres, all axles were sprung with leaf springs and designed as rigid axles. The weak point of the design was the cardan shaft, which tended to crack and then broke under full load. In the process, the hoses of the compressed air system were often destroyed, which led to a sudden loss of braking power.

On
October 30, 1947, the first small series were introduced. Testing before the Second World War had already shown that the truck with 82 hp (60 kW) was too weakly engined. The ZIS-150 now received an uprated engine with 95 hp (70 kW), the payload could be increased to 4000 kg. The assembly line for

In 1956, the truck's engine was fitted with a light-alloy cylinder head, and the compression ratio increased to 6.2. Together with the new intake system, this led to an increase in output to 71 kW. The frame was reinforced, the vehicle was now fitted with hydraulic shock absorbers and the travel of

The truck was powered by a six-cylinder engine ZIS-120 (ЗИС-120). For the first time in Soviet commercial vehicle construction, a five-speed manual transmission was used, which was connected to the engine via a two-disc dry clutch. Also new in Soviet truck construction were air-operated brakes. The

The new vehicle received a number of differences; the new engine differed from the previously installed make mainly in the revised light-alloy cylinder heads. As a result, the performance could be slightly increased by increasing the compression ratio. Other innovations included a revised braking
