Which GAZ 2410 version to choose
Because there is no second named version, “extra money” cannot be compared to a richer engine in this file. The useful comparison is inside 2.5 MT itself: how much power you get per litre, how much mass each horsepower must move, how far a 55 L tank goes at the only measured consumption, and what is not measured so you do not treat a blank as a feature.
2.5 MT is the only row. It is Gasoline, Carburetor, 4 Inline cylinders, 2 valves per cylinder, Front, longitudinal, Manual with 4 gears, RWD. Boost is not measured. Fuel in the data is 92. Compression is 8.2. Bore and stroke are 92x92.

GAZ 2410 specs: 2.5 MT vs the empty columns
| Version | hp | Nm | Displacement (cm³) | Fuel | Cylinders | Layout | Boost | Gearbox | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.5 MT | 100 | 182 | 2445 | Gasoline | 4 | Inline | not measured | Manual | RWD |
Power is 100 hp / 74 kW at 4500 rpm. Torque is 182 Nm at 2600 rpm. That is 100 ÷ 2.445 ≈ 40.9 hp per litre and 74 ÷ 2.445 ≈ 30.3 kW per litre. Torque density is 182 ÷ 2.445 ≈ 74.4 Nm per litre. Peak torque arrives 1900 rpm below peak power (4500 − 2600). With a 4-speed Manual and RWD, the catalogue does not list another gearbox or another drive to trade against; the ratio set is the one you get.
Valves: 4 cylinders × 2 valves = 8 valves in total. The square 92x92 dimensions mean bore equals stroke; the data does not add a third cylinder count or a different layout, so do not invent one.
Engine: what 100 hp and 182 Nm buy on 2445 cm³
2.5 MT is not a high-output reading of this displacement. 40.9 hp/L with Carburetor, compression 8.2, and fuel 92 is the whole power story. If you expected a second petrol figure or a boosted figure, this catalogue does not contain it: `nadduv` / boost is not measured.
Torque at 2600 rpm is the stronger of the two peaks relative to displacement (74.4 Nm/L vs 40.9 hp/L). That does not create a second version; it only describes how 2.5 MT is specified. There is no 2.5 AT, no other displacement, and no second 2.5 MT distinguished by a different horsepower. If two rows shared the name, this catalogue would split them by hp; here there is one row and one hp: 100.
Performance, mpg, and what is not measured
2.5 MT acceleration 0–100 is 18 s. Top speed is 145. City consumption is 16. Highway consumption is not measured. Mixed consumption is not measured. CO2 is not measured. Eco class is not measured.
Specific performance from kerb mass: 1540 kg ÷ 100 hp = 15.4 kg per hp; 1540 ÷ 74 kW ≈ 20.8 kg per kW. Those ratios are the only “weight-to-power” comparison available, because gross mass is not measured and no lighter or heavier named version exists.
Tank is 55 L. At the only measured consumption (city 16), 55 ÷ 16 × 100 = 343.75 km of city range on a full tank. Highway range cannot be computed: highway consumption is not measured. Mixed range cannot be computed: mixed consumption is not measured. Do not treat those blanks as “the car has no highway figure because the type never uses one”; the field is simply not measured.
Dimensions, weight, ground clearance
Kerb weight of 2.5 MT is 1540 kg. Gross weight is not measured. Ground clearance is 174. Tank is 55 L. Wheel sizes are not measured.
Front suspension: Independent, spring. Rear: Dependent, leaf spring. Front brakes: Drum. Rear brakes: Drum. There is no second chassis spec in another generation to compare; 1 generation carries this one set from 1985-01-01 to 1992-12-31.
Clearance 174 vs an unlisted wheel size means you cannot compute tyre-limited geometry from this file. Weight without a measured gross figure means payload is not measured.
Generations: what changed (and what did not)
1 generation (keys in data: years 1985-01-01–1992-12-31) is Sedan, 1 modification. Production span is 1992 − 1985 + the inclusive year count on calendar dates given: start 1985-01-01, stop 1992-12-31 — eight calendar years of the same named car. No restyling is listed as a nested generation. No second generation exists to take a later engine, a later gearbox, or a later brake type.
So generation-to-generation arithmetic is empty: there is no later hp, no later kg, no later 0–100. The only change you can state is that the catalogue stops at 1992-12-31. Choosing “an early 2410 vs a late 2410” is not a choice this dataset can score; both ends of the window are the same 2.5 MT.
Reliability and problems: what the numbers allow you to ask
This file does not list failure rates, prices, or used-market stock. Reliability as a ranking of versions is therefore not a second table — there is only 2.5 MT. What you can still ask, using the measured hardware, is whether you accept:
- Carburetor + Gasoline + fuel 92 + compression 8.2 as the only fuel system.
- Manual, 4 gears, RWD as the only driveline.
- Drum front and Drum rear as the only brakes.
- Independent, spring front and Dependent, leaf spring rear as the only suspension pair.
- City 16 as the only consumption, with highway and mixed not measured.
- 18 s to 100 and 145 top speed as the only performance pair.
- 1540 kg kerb with gross not measured.
If any of those is a deal-breaker, this catalogue has no other GAZ 2410 version to move to.
Which version to buy: the arithmetic verdict
Buy 2.5 MT if you want the only GAZ 2410 this dataset defines: 100 hp and 182 Nm from 2445 cm³ Gasoline, 4 Inline, Front, longitudinal, Carburetor, Manual 4, RWD, Sedan, 1985-01-01 to 1992-12-31.
The numbers that describe that choice, not a rival trim:
- 40.9 hp/L and 74.4 Nm/L from 2445 cm³.
- 15.4 kg/hp at 1540 kg kerb.
- 18 s to 100 and 145 top speed — no quicker named row exists.
- City 16 and a 55 L tank → 343.75 km city range; highway mpg not measured; mixed mpg not measured.
- Ground clearance 174; wheels not measured; gross weight not measured; CO2 not measured; eco class not measured; boost not measured.
There is no “what the extra money buys” against a second engine, because there is no second engine. The extra you are not paying for, inside this file, is any automatic, any non-RWD drive, any boosted figure, any other displacement, and any later generation. If you need those, you are not choosing among GAZ 2410 versions in this catalogue; you are leaving the model.
2.5 MT remains the exact version name to use as the modification anchor: one name, one power (100 hp), one generation.
