This car was an improved version of the earlier 400-420 model (produced since 1947), modernized in terms of its engine and equipment. The Moskvitch 401 was fitted with a 1074 cm³ engine with increased power up to 26 HP, enabling speeds of up to 90 km\/h. The structural improvements also included a more robust starter, modernized bearings, an improved braking system, and a new dynamo.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    These cars were widely used in the Soviet Union and exported to Eastern Bloc countries such as East Germany, as well as to Norway. Interestingly, Moskvitches exported to Scandinavia were often traded in exchange for fish catches, demonstrating the significance of the USSR automotive industry in postwar Europe. Production ended in 1956, and the model was succeeded by the more modern Moskvitch 402.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eFeatures of the ICM 35479 model\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePrecisely reproduced body and interior details\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRealistically recreated suspension and undercarriage elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eEasy-to-assemble parts with perfect fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSaloon (sedan) version, display case, and other build options according to preference\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDecals and assembly instructions included in the kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Moskvitch 401-420 model is recommended for both beginner modellers (difficulty level: \u003cstrong\u003e2\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e) and collectors of postwar motor vehicles.
