FactZIL's own earlier limousine, the ZIL-Moskva, briefly held the Guinness record for largest passenger car.
The ZIL-111, the first post-war limousine designed in the Soviet Union, was produced by ZiL at the Likhachov Plant in Moscow from 1958 to 1967, succeeding the ZIS-110 (a short-lived 1956 prototype, the ZIL-Moskva, had briefly held the Guinness record for largest passenger car). Its 6.0-litre V8 made 200 hp, through a 2-speed automatic with a torque converter. Front engine, rear-wheel drive; wheelbase 3,760 mm (148.0 in), length 6,137 mm (241.6 in, ZIL-111) or 6,190 mm (243.7 in, ZIL-111G), width 2,033 mm (80.0 in, ZIL-111) or 2,045 mm (80.5 in, ZIL-111G), height 1,637 mm (64.4 in), curb weight 2,610-2,815 kg (5,754-6,206 lb).

It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
