* Moskvitch 408-Tourist ( convertible prototype, based on 408 ) ( 1964 )

Not until 1959 was a Moskvitch model introduced that bore no trace of Opel engineering.

Moskvitch () ( sometimes also written as Moskvich, Moskvič or Moskwitsch ) was an automobile brand from Russia produced by AZLK from 1945 to 1991 and by OAO Moskvitch from 1991 to 2002.

OAO Moskvitch was a privatized venture name given to the former factory in order to avoid legal issues after the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991.

The Moskvitch was also produced in Bulgaria ( see Moskvitch ( Bulgaria )) between 1966 and 1990 on the basis of complete knock down ( CKD ) kits.

The body was built on the basis of Simca 1307, while longitudinal engine placement and torsion-crank rear suspension and McPherson strut front suspension was inspired by Audi 80 / 100 family, while taking into account the larger size of the Moskvitch and Lada engines.

The bankruptcy of OAO Moskvitch was officially announced in 2006 and the company was liquidated the following year.

* Moskvitch 2140SL ( 1981-1986 ) ( Improved 2140, Super Lux was made for foreign markets )

The first car, designed in Moskvitch factory, was ZAZ-965 Zaporozhets and entered production in 1960.

From 1948 the prewar Kadett was manufactured as the Moskvitch 400 / 420: it continued to be produced on the edge of Moscow as a Moskvitch until 1956.

The Simca 1307 was an inspiration for the design of Russian Moskvitch Aleko ( 1986 – 2001 )

The Moskvitch 2141, commonly referred to as simply Aleko ( Russian: " АЛЕКО ", derivative from factory name " Автомобильный завод имени Ленинского Комсомола ", Aftomobilnyi zavod imeni Leninskogo Komsomola, meaning " Automotive Factory of Lenin's Komsomol "), is a Russian small class, third group hatchback car that was first announced in 1985 and sold in the Soviet Union and its successor states between 1986 and 2000 ( gradually replaced in 2001 by its sedan body version, Moskvitch 2142, which never was produced in large quantities and which worldwide sales wasn't even started ) by the now bankrupt Moskvitch Stock Company, based in Moscow, Russia.

Aleko was a huge improvement over previous Moskvitch models, which were dependable but old-fashioned saloons and station wagons ( estates ) with rear-wheel drive and a solid rear axle.

For Moskvitch, Aleko was innovative, having front-wheel drive, a hatchback body style, McPherson strut front suspension and torsion-crank rear suspension.

The IZh automobiles were copies of Moskvitch models 412 and later AZLK-2138 and 2140, until the IZh-2126 Oda.

Some of the last Moskvitch models to be built were the somewhat upgraded Aleko which was renamed to Svjatogor ( models M-214122, M-214100, M-214145 ) and the M-2142, Dolgorukij, ( 1997 – 2002 ), were also based on the design of M-2141.
