In Western Europe, as a successor to the Belarus T-40 series (known as the 400 series), the Lipetsk tractor factory introduced the LTZ-55 in 1991 and, a year later, the 60-horsepower LTZ-60. The engines were still air-cooled 4.15-liter models. However, the LTZ-60AB model featured a Minsk 4.75-liter water-cooled engine, and the LTZ-60AV had a Rybinsk 4.9-liter water-cooled engine, which was also used in JuMZ factory tractors. Alongside the traditional shuttle gearbox, a 6+1-speed transmission was added, which also included a 4+1 crawling gear. The most significant improvements compared to the T-40 were in the cabin.

In the early 2000s, LTZ expanded its product range with two larger models, the LTZ-95 and LTZ-120. These featured engines from the Minsk factory and 16+8 transmissions. Production of these apparently remained limited. Like the smaller models, these were also manufactured or at least showcased at exhibitions in both angular and rounded versions. LTZ went bankrupt in 2004, and the final effort in Lipetsk tractor production ended in 2009.
