The '''Moskvitch G4''' were [[sports car]]s from [[Moskvitch]] released in 1963. Like the G3, they used the same engine as the Moskvitch 407. In 1965, all three G4's were re-engined with units based on the engine in the [[Moskvitch 408]]. These engines were fitted with twin Weber 40DCO carburettors, advanced valve timing, and new camshafts giving {{Convert|81|bhp|kW PS|0|abbr=on}}. The G4's were then redesignated as G4A's. A G4A (the first production G4) was fitted with a [[Moskvitch 412]] based engine, the [[Moskvitch DM|DM]], rated at {{Convert|92|bhp|kW PS|0|abbr=on}}, leading to the G4M. During 1967–1968, the two remaining G4A's were converted into G4M's. Two G4M's were rebuilt into [[Moskvitch G5]]'s in 1968. The third G4M was raced until 1972 (it was not converted). The G4's had independent suspension, both front and rear (from the Moskvitch 407), and were successful in several [[USSR]] championships.
