Moskvitch G2

Instead of an open wheel car it was now fitted with an aerodynamic body (spider or hard-top) and was capable of a top speed of 223 km/h (139 mph).

It was powered by a mid-mounted 70 hp (52 kW) 1,074 cc (65.5 cu in) inline 4-cylinder flathead engine derived from the 407-series engine used in the 407.

[3] The brakes, suspension, and wheels were borrowed from the Moskvitch 401.

In 1959, the engine was replaced with a unit based on the engine from the Moskvitch 407 and a rollbar was installed above the driver's seat.
