ZIL-E-167 is an off-road truck designed in the beginning of 1960’s to withstand difficult conditions in Siberia, Urals and far east and northern territories of the Soviet Union. It could cross water and control its tire pressure, and was equipped with air cleaning systems as well as a 4.5 kW electric engine to pump water (in case of fire). It also had radio transmission capabilities.

The ZIL-E-167 was fitted with two 7.0-liter V8 engines, both of which were located in the rear of the vehicle. Air inlets were situated on the sides of the body. The bottom of the vehicle was protected with metal sheets which were meant to improve the vehicle's sliding characteristics in snow. The cab was shared with the BAZ-135.

Mainly due to the complexity of the transmission, the ZIL-E-167 never entered into mass production.
