Parade cars are parade limousines that appear in public once a year — at the Victory Day Parade on May 9. The tradition of commanding the parade from the wheels appeared in the USSR. The first domestic limousine for parades ZIS-110 was created in 1945 in the image and likeness of the American "Packard". At the same time, there was a tradition to paint limousines with light gray nitroemal-the color of the marshal's greatcoat.
ZIS-110B-phaeton body type, produced in 1949-1957. ZIS-110B participated in military parades, worked as a taxi, and cameramen used them for filming. The ZIS-110B phaetons were painted in black, gray, gray-blue and beige.
ZIL-117VE-body type passenger convertible. Top-class ZIL-117VE cars were produced from 1973 to 1979. They were intended mainly for participation in military parades and serving party and state leaders.
ZIL-41041 AMG-parade convertible from the Nizhny Novgorod company "Atlant Delta" created in 2010 for the Victory Parade in the amount of 4 copies. The car is a hybrid of a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 pickup truck and a body from ZIL-41041. The body of the four-door ZIL sedan was converted into a two-door convertible.
