Despite the fact that the Russian car industry was scolded, scolded and, most likely, will scold, VAZ cars do not leave the first lines of sales ratings. Why do buyers forgive them for assembly flaws, cheap finishing materials, and a very controversial design? It's simple - the price. As Henry Ford said - “the nicest car is new car". This is what the Priors and Kalina use, because for the price tag that hangs on these cars in the showrooms, it will not be possible to buy even the simplest European foreign car.

The only ones who got close enough to VAZs of cost are cars produced by Podnebeskaya, however, so far, the attitude towards them is still suspicious, rather than towards domestic cars... Let's take two of the most popular cars from, with similar price tags, and try to figure out which is better - Kalina or Priora.

Lada Kalina and Lada Priora have certain flaws, but this is forgiven them, since the price for them is more than democratic

Rumors about this model began to circulate many years before its release. The press center of AVTOVAZ did not indulge motorists with information, therefore many myths were invented about this car. In general, no less than ten years passed from the draft version to the production of Kalina on the conveyor. The first cars appeared in car dealerships in 2004. Initially, buyers were offered only a sedan body, and only two years later the carmaker pleased with the release of a hatchback and a station wagon.

This car is the ideological successor to the tenth model. Many auto experts call Prioru not the next generation, but a deep restyling of the “dozen”. Indeed, the design of the car, although it was redesigned, but in its outlines, the lines of its predecessor are clearly guessed.

The innovations concerned the use of a new power unit (by the way, very, very good - some car publishers generally argued that the new engine is the best that is in the Prior), good, as well as the gearbox, which has been significantly modernized (but do not be mistaken about it - to include second gear, you still need to make a lot of effort).

In addition, in Priora, for the first time in the history of the Russian car industry, the plant began to install an airbag.

In 2013, VAZ updated both models, plus a third player, Lada Granta, has been on the market for quite a long time, so today the question is: which is better - Kalina 2, Priora 2 or Granta. Here we will not talk about Grant, since her comparison with the first two draws on a separate large material.

The new Priora has changed slightly - mainly, the changes have affected the external design and interior decoration. The manufacturer plans to remove Priora from production in the next few years, so the management decided that it was pointless to carry out any major updates. But it cannot be said that they completely gave up on the model - they promise to put a new gearbox with a cable drive on it, as well as a new power unit.

The new Priora has changed slightly - mainly, the changes affected the external design and interior decoration

Much more serious work was done on Kalina. In addition to a very noticeably changed appearance and a new interior, Kalina received (lo and behold!) An automatic transmission. Yes, you read that correctly - for the first time, VAZ began to install automatic transmissions on its cars. By the way, the reviews about this transmission are quite good. The suspension, gearbox and engine have also undergone revision. There was a complete set with a multimedia system and "climate".

Despite the seemingly more modest dimensions, there will be more space in the Kalina 2 cabin than in the Priora. The landing of both the front and rear passengers in the Priora is not so comfortable, so for the Kalina salon there is a definite plus. Another advantage is the quieter operation of the power unit (thanks to improved noise insulation), in the Priore, the sound is clearly audible even at idle.

Kalina looks more modern and is inferior to her in many parameters.

As for the dynamics of acceleration, it is approximately the same. Kalina may be a little faster due to the lower weight, but the difference is not so important that you should pay close attention to it.

The question of choice largely depends on the subjective preferences of the buyer, however, today, Kalina is more preferable due to its higher manufacturability and quite modern design.

For people who often have to transport a large amount of things, the following question is important - which is better, Lada Kalina station wagon, or Lada Priora station wagon? Let's start with the price: for Kalina 2 in a practical body, you will have to pay from 334,500 rubles, and for Priora - from 384,000 rubles. Is it worth overpaying 50 thousand rubles?

If for some special reason you like Priora, then yes - you can overpay, but in the usual case, the situation is the same as with other bodies - Kalina looks more modern and preferable. In addition, with the release of the second modification, good 1.6-liter engines began to be installed on station wagons (earlier 1.4-liter engines were installed), so in this regard, Kalins also stopped losing to their eternal rivals.

• In contact with

As for these two domestic cars, they are chosen, first of all, for the reason that their cost is much lower than that of most analogues made abroad. Already given enough, everyone knows that AvtoVAZ cars are considered good, affordable and high-quality working cars that can be used for small families and doing business. It is worth highlighting the fact that cars of this production are actively used in government structures of various kinds.

There are two domestically produced cars in approximately the same category, and. Not every person, even one who is actively interested in the domestic auto industry, will be able to answer the question which car is better. For this reason, in order to make a high-quality, correct and reliable verdict, it is necessary to thoroughly study every component of cars.

Starting positions and characteristics

Lada Priora, by the way, is a family car that has been produced for a long time. In more precise terms, the car appeared on the domestic market back in 2007. This model replaced the VAZ 2110, which had gone on a well-deserved rest. In 2013, the Priora was almost completely redesigned. Thanks to this, several cars appeared at once, with different kinds bodies.

1. The very first model was released in the sedan body since 2007.
2. Next came a car with a hatchback body, which appeared in 2008.
3. The universal body type appeared in the Priora in 2009.
4. The coupe body, which appeared in 2010, is very popular to this day.

If we talk about the age of the model, then in this case there is one indisputable advantage. The fact is that the car has been produced for a long time, which means that a lot has been redesigned over the years. The last re-release of the car showed that there are practically no significant shortcomings in the work of the Priora.

Russian sedan

From a technical point of view, the car is constantly being modernized and improved in all respects. It is for this reason that buying a new car that would cause serious troubles in technical terms is reduced to zero. Moreover, all the most modern technologies and systems are installed in the car, which do not allow it to lag behind new products in this regard. Priora in this regard shows quite a decent result.

As for the Lada Grants, no less well-known to domestic buyers, she came to the market in order to replace the already significantly outdated VAZ 2105 and VAZ 2107. It was this car that brought car market, breath of fresh air. During the existence of this car, he became the owner of two different bodies.

1. The sedan body was the very first, and it appeared in 2011.
2. After that, a car with a liftback body appeared, in 2012.

Comparative test drives

In order to get an accurate answer to the question of what the old Priora, a much more recent and updated Grant, can offer, it is necessary to compare cars in each position. The main parameters have always been indicators of the length, width and height of the car, as well as the size of the wheelbase. In this case, as expected, Priora comes out ahead, whose body length was 4 meters 35 centimeters, and the size of the wheelbase is 2 meters 49.2 centimeters. For Grants, these figures are much lower. In this case, the length of the car was 4 meters 26 centimeters, and the wheelbase was 2 meters 47.6 centimeters.

Despite the fact that the Granta has a much shorter car length, she was able to provide exactly the same amount of space for rear passengers as the Priora. Due to the fact that Granta has a much more advanced architectural structure, she can also transport small-sized cargo. Grant's car with a sedan body has a luggage compartment of 480 liters, while the Priora boasts only 430 liters of free space. The situation looks the same with the five-door hatchback, since the wheelbase in this case has remained unchanged.

• The length of the Lada Priora is 4 meters 21 centimeters.
• Luggage compartment - 360 liters.
• The length of the Lada Grants is 4 meters 24.6 centimeters.
• Luggage compartment - 440 liters.

Judging solely by the size and spatial features, in this case, it looks much more attractive new model car. Father-in-law, Grant bypasses Priora, in all respects. Among other things, Granta has a much more unusual and interesting appearance.

Despite all this, Priora is not even going to give up. After all, this car has one hidden trump card in its sleeve, in the form of a station wagon, which Grants simply do not have. The luggage compartment in this case already has an indicator of 444 liters. In addition, it is possible to fold the rear seats and increase this figure to 777 liters of free space. This is just an ideal option for people who often need to transport small-sized loads, who often travel to the country and to nature. Alas, it cannot offer such a grant to its buyer.

As for the 3-door coupe, this option also has its fans and admirers. it great option, for people who like an unusual style of cars.

Strength parameters and aesthetic data

Over the past few years, AvtoVAZ has released several updates for its vehicles at once. This is not to say that in technical terms there is direct significant diversity, but the situation in this regard, at least, has moved off dead center. Granta uses 1.6-liter gasoline engines that have two and four valves per cylinder. The power of these cars was 81 and 120 horsepower. The hatchback won't be able to take advantage of the most powerful engine available. It is also possible to choose a car with a manual or automatic transmission.

The car is capable of accelerating to 100 kilometers per hour, in 9.5 seconds, on the most powerful engine option, and in 13.5 seconds, on a car operating at 81 horsepower. As for the Priora, relatively recently, it has another type of engine. A much more powerful 1.8-liter analogue has the ability to accelerate the hatchback to 100 kilometers per hour in 10 seconds. The torque in this case is 165 Nm. Thanks to this, the engine with a capacity of 123 horsepower can feel quite briskly on the road. In some situations, previously there was not enough traction for a comfortable ride.

Without a doubt, the car should be chosen based on general indicators. Therefore, in this case, it is imperative to weigh all the advantages and disadvantages of each car.

As for Grants, it looks much more crude and not aesthetically pleasing. Most of the complaints were about the rear view of the car, where the trunk looks like a completely foreign body. However, the situation was significantly improved by Granta liftback. There is already a much more interesting and high-quality salon, and it is also possible to choose several equipment options.

If we talk about the Priora wagon and hatchback, then they look great. This is a fairly practical version of the car, which does not have blown lines and other unusual elements. We can say that this is an ageless classic.

Price policy

Before making final conclusions, it is imperative that you familiarize yourself with this component.

1. Priora can be used as a work vehicle, it exists in a wide variety of modifications and is sold at different prices:

• Hatchback - 350 thousand rubles.
• Sedan - 335 thousand rubles.
• Station wagon - 375 thousand rubles.

Richer versions of cars come at a much higher cost.

1. Grant is a much more modern model of a Class B car, it costs so much:

• The cheapest version of a car with a 1.6-liter engine and 82 horsepower will cost 289 thousand rubles.
• Top-end equipment - 420 thousand rubles.
• Sports option - 482 thousand rubles.

Those people who are looking for a car for family trips will definitely choose the Priora. However, if you want to get more comfort while driving, it is worth paying attention to Grant. Either way, these two cars look pretty good.

Every motorist once, but faced the problem of choosing a technical means. The reasons are different: prices, modifications, personal wishes, condition, mileage, etc.

Granta, regardless of modification, is originally endowed with a stylish form. Added DRLs, improved lighting, bumper shape, optics. The choice is in favor of Lada.

Interior

Inside the cabin, the situation looks dramatic. After restyling in 2014, the interior of the VAZ-2170 was modernized, the quality of finishing materials, the so-called "soft-look", was improved.

VAZ-2190 looks rather faded against the general background with its predecessor. Simply decorated dashboard, torpedo, central channel. Perhaps compensation in the form spacious salon covers the previous flaw.

Price and quality

In comparison, which is better than Priora or Grant liftback, the "novelty" definitely wins. The basic equipment of the Priora is at a price equal to the cost of Grants in the top equipment. This paradox of pricing policy is explained quite simply - the minimum number of small components that are replaced by large ones. Thus, it was possible to reduce the noise level and the cost of the machine.

Complete set

The predecessor VAZ-2190 has only two configurations: "Norma", "Lux". Grant added one more: "Standard" is the most budget equipment. But it also looks much better than the Priora. The next two modifications of the VAZ-2190 differ little from each other.

Available options:
frontal airbag;
electric power steering;
on-board computer and multimedia system;
heated front seats.

Specifications

A criterion that worries most motorists, buyers of the brand. So let's start with optics. The opinions of specialists are divided into two opposite camps:

• VAZ - 2170: high beam quality;
• Lada - 2190: low beam quality.

Priora's victory is supported by the autonomy of each of the bases in the optics, which reduces the cost of the design and the cost as a whole.

Ground clearance height

Trunk

Priora hatchback or Granta liftback: the indisputable advantage of Lada Granta in the volume of the luggage compartment. It is 525 liters (700 liters folded). While the Priora has only 440 liters.

Suspension

The increased steering rack travel increases the Priora's steering coefficient. She becomes more obedient in turns, maneuvers. The ratio of the odds: 3.1 versus 4.1, respectively.

Granta, on the contrary, rolls, ideal for moderate driving style. Already at speeds above 120 km / h, insignificant jumps of the car and a decrease in control efficiency are noticeable. We are talking about the stock configuration, in "Sport" the characteristics are different.

Engine

There are no special differences in the power plants between Grant and Priora, since they are made using identical technologies. In the "Sport" configuration, the 16-valve VAZ-2190 is faster and faster than its predecessor.
The lineup motors: 82/87/98/106 hp, the last two with additional noise isolation. Fuel consumption in the urban cycle at the level of 9 - 10 liters, which is within the permissible limits for this class of car.

Transmission

Despite the identity of the design of the VAZ-2170 and VAZ-2190 gearbox, the latter beats in the characteristics. The modernized, modified version of the VAZ-2108 clearly and easily includes gears. In addition, Granta is equipped with both a manual transmission and an automatic transmission. In Priora, only a variant of the mechanics.

Prices

On the primary market of Priora, it is 60 - 80 thousand rubles more expensive than the basic configuration of Lada Granta. The difference in the cost of Priors with mileage from Grants is in the range of 50 - 55 thousand rubles.

Priora hatchback or grant liftback which is better: there is no definite answer, in each case individually.

The build quality factor largely influences.

For taller drivers, the Granta is ideal as it provides more space, including in the rear row of seats. Priora still attracts with engine power, long service life, fewer flaws.

It may take time to perfect Granta as well, and within a few years it will become a favorite.

With the release of the updated Lada Priora, the question of choosing between various AvtoVAZ models has become much more difficult. In order to somehow ease your headache, I propose to make a small comparative review of Priora vs Grant, in which we will quickly go over the main consumer qualities of these cars.

So, let's start with design, if this word is generally applicable to Togliatti products. In this component, the advantage is on the side of Lada Grants, even despite the new pretty front end of the Priora, which she inherited after restyling. In general, Lada Granta http://auto.ironhorse.ru/category/russia/vaz/granta looks a little more aerodynamic, its edges are smoother, and the optics are more modern. There are, of course, in the design Grants and a fly in the ointment - this is the trunk lid of a giant disproportionate size with a meager design.

Now the salon. To begin with, getting into the Priora's driver's seat for tall or oversized people is not a pleasant experience. In this regard, Granta noticeably wins, although it is also not considered an ideal. On the other hand, the interior design and quality of finishing are slightly higher in the new Priora due to the use of new soft-look materials and more thought-out ergonomics. Well, if you buy the Priora in the maximum configuration, then this difference will be even more noticeable thanks to the new multimedia system with a 7-inch touch screen. The seating comfort of both cars is about the same.

It is worth mentioning about the cargo qualities. Lada Priora's sedan trunk is capable of swallowing 430 liters of cargo. The Priora hatchback is a little more modest - 360 liters, but at the same time you can fold the rear seats and get already 705 liters. Lada Granta sedan in its trunk can carry up to 520 liters of cargo. The increase is significant, but this parameter is not important for everyone, since a bag of potatoes will fit in any of the above luggage compartments.

Now a few words about the build quality. There is absolute parity here, because all Lada cars are assembled according to the "lottery" principle: if you are lucky, then, like one of my friends, you won't even hear a squeak in the cabin, and if you're not lucky, then, like another friend of mine, you will visit the service more often than going to the store for bread.

Technically, Priora and Grants have a lot in common. Both cars are equipped with the same 87 and 106 strong gasoline engines, but for the Lada Priora there is also an "intermediate" version for 98 hp. Priora has no choice of gearbox, only 5-speed mechanics, but Grant can boast of having a 4-speed “automatic”, though for a very astronomical amount. The suspension arrangement for Grants and Priora is similar, but the settings are different: Grant is more stable at high speeds, but the Priora's travel is much smoother, and it is better prepared for unevenness.

Summing up, I will say the following: if you choose between the initial configurations, then there is practically no difference. But if you are ready to pay for a complete "stuffing", then the updated Priora will delight you with such chips as the ESP system, a modern multimedia system, an electric boot lid and cruise control. Lada Granta in top performance in this regard is much more modest.

Opinion of LADAVODS

Lada Priora Sedan

My opinion

Based on experience, I can answer the question which car is better - Lada Granta or Priora. When purchasing, I leaned towards the second option, because of the higher cost. Plus, it is positioned as the flagship of the domestic automotive industry. There is little space in it, but it can be safely called a B-class.

Initially, the goal of improving the version of the 10th family was invested in the creation of Priora. And Grant is a cheaper version of Kalina, which replaced the Zhiguli. It's simple budget car, improved for modern roads.

From all of the above, we can conclude that a VAZ-made car is like a lottery. In each model, there may be a successful or problematic option. Priora is a model that has been tested for decades, and Granta is a more modern car, assembled using new technologies. And, seriously judging by technical specifications, then, in terms of the latest versions, in many criteria, Grant surpasses the Priora, and in cost, including that for some today it is one of the main selection criteria.

Lada Priora liftback. "Grant" or "Priora"

Lada Granta or Priora - which is better? Comparative characteristics and reviews of owners, photos, videos.

Every person at least once in his life was faced with a choice - which car to take: domestic or foreign, used or new ... If you select from the options available at cost, then the Russian auto industry will come to the rescue, which also gives reasons for thinking about the choice ... In addition, favorable prices will be taken into account in the future - in relation to maintenance, repair and replacement of parts.

Just recently, the leading manufacturer AVTOVAZ has improved most of the models, and also released new ones, which are becoming more and more popular every day. To help buyers with a choice, I decided to discuss which is better: Lada Granta or Lada Priora. According to the latest statistics, these are the best-selling cars of this company. These models differ from all known Lada Kalina and from each other, so let's see what exactly.

Exterior - exterior

Let's start by looking at external data. The Priora has a traditional body shape similar to the previous version. After restyling in 2014, it acquired improved headlights, bumper and rear dimensions.

Lada Priora Sedan

Granta has now acquired a youthful stylish shape reminiscent of a foreign car. The running lights, bumpers and headlights have been improved. In this category, you can give her preference.

Interior - salon overview

If we take Priora as an example, then the interior in it has changed for the better. The salon used modern soft-look materials.

Lada Priora Lux Salon

Whereas Granta has a cheap-looking plastic dashboard. But it has a more spacious interior.

Price and quality

In this comparison, which is better than the Priora or Grant, the liftback wins the second option, since today the new Priora without additions costs like the Granta in the luxury configuration. This difference in price was achieved thanks to a new design that uses fewer small parts. This is what contributed to the reduction of noise.

Priora has two configurations for all models: Norma and Lux. Granta also has a third - Standard, which is the cheapest. At the same time, inexpensive configurations of the first model are better equipped than the second. But their cost is much higher. But there are practically no differences between expensive trim levels. They include:

• front airbags;
• electric power steering;
• multimedia system with on-board computer;
• heated seats, etc.

Specifications

This criterion worries domestic motorists most of all, so we will analyze in detail all the available parameters.

Headlights

If you choose from cars, which is better - Grant or Priora regarding the light, then opinions are divided. Granta wins in the low beam category, and in the Priore, a good high beam. It also has an advantage in the structure of the headlight - lamps for different lights are installed separately, so this makes it easier and cheaper to replace in the future. The full description looks like this.

• DRL / HE P21 / 5W 12V / 21W / 5W.
• Middle and high beam h5 12V / 60W / 55W.
• Turn signal lamp PY21W 12V / 21W.

Lada Granta:

• Low beam (H7).
• Far (h3).
• Turn signal lamp PY21W 12V / 21W.

Clearance

For both car brands, regardless of the body - liftback, sedan, sport or hatchback - ground clearance the same - 16 cm.

Trunk

What Grant is better than Priora is the volume of the trunk.

In the first case, it is equal to 520 liters, in the second - 430. But if you fold the back sofa, then this figure increases to 700.

Suspension

If you are wondering what is better to buy - Priora or Grant, then opinions are also divided on this characteristic. The first model is bought because of its good handling. Due to the increased travel of the steering rack, it becomes more "obedient". In the sport version, the suspension has been significantly improved. The second option is taken by those who value comfort. Grants have fewer revolutions from lock to lock, in comparison with Priora - 3.1 versus 4.1. It also has more roll in corners and is perfect for older drivers. Accelerating more than 120 km / h, it will not feel very good. Although this is the latter, therefore, a more modern development of the creators.

Engines

If we compare which is better - Grant or Prior relative to the engines, then in reality they are practically the same. But my personal opinion is that the 16-valve Granta is faster than the opponent (especially in the "sport" version - this has been proven on test drives as well).

In the Priora model range there are only two positions - 98 and 106 hp, while in the Grant two more - 82 and 87 are added. In addition, they are equipped with a noise insulation system.

The fuel consumption declared by the plant also does not differ much - about 9-10 liters in the city, and six on the highway.

Transmission

Choosing from two - Grant or Priora - which is better, the first option wins with respect to this characteristic. I declare with confidence that the new cable checkpoint outperforms the old prior's one.

This is a modernized version of the gearbox with the VAZ-2108, which, albeit noisy, but at the same time gives a clear work of the wings. Transmissions can be turned on literally with your little finger. In Prior, there is a mechanic, and in Granta, there is a choice - mechanical, robot and automatic.

Opinion of LADAVODS

It was also interesting to get acquainted with the personal experience and reviews of car owners in different bodies - hatchback, liftback, sedan or sport - regarding which car is better: Priora or Grant. Here opinions are divided. Many, having bought Grant, claim that it is of better quality. With it, you need to go to the service of relatively minor breakdowns much less often (according to some users). The good news is that the car came to MOT, and not it was attracted. Most often, malfunctions of small units occur: a stove, a generator, a window, etc. Grants' price is lower, the exterior suits many. The only thing is the brakes. Even in the service, this is already considered normal, since it is observed in almost every model.

Regarding which is better - Priora or Grant, the reviews were different. Many people say well that the Granta has more room, especially for the legs. It is roomy, comfortable to fit and pleases with a large trunk. This is especially true for those who need it for work, and in everyday life too. Grants have a rich set, plus a new platform. There are large doors, as in the Kalina station wagon or hatchback (video is presented below).

Others like the Priora better - the package and the power of the engine. Her fans tend to believe that Granta has more visits to the service. But many consider the Priora to be overpriced as expected. Although it is simply dictated by modern realities. Foreign cars have also risen, like everything else in this world. The restyled versions have already acquired all the necessary elements - a short steering rack, a cable gate and other things that are so much praised in Grant.

Lada Priora Sedan

Also, many prefer the appearance of the Priora, while the second Lada does not like the shape of the stern, especially in the bodies of the liftback, hatchback and sedan. Priora looks more modern, so it can be called a youth version. Convenient for both driver and passengers.

My opinion

I myself have been the owner of the Priora for two years. For two years on new car I skated over 30,000 km. During this period, there were a lot of minor breakdowns, but for all the time it never got in the way. The battery sat down once, through my fault - it did not extinguish the ceiling lamp.

Based on experience, I can answer the question which car is better - Lada Granta or Priora. NS

Priora Hatchback or Granta Hatchback: model characteristics

Currently, the cars of the Volzhsky plant are increasingly popular with motorists. And this is an understandable fact, since the cost of this brand is much lower than that of a foreign one, and the service is quite simple. And also, if necessary, you can get any components and spare parts in a short time.

Buyers often face the problem of choosing: which car is better and more modern - Priora Hatchback or Granta Hatchback. These models are especially popular among other Lada cars, and the choice often arises between them. Such a solution only at first glance seems simple, but in fact, these almost identical models have a number of individual properties.

And more recently, the AvtoVAZ plant has launched the production of the Lada Granta Liftback model. This is a new Granta, adjusted to a foreign body model and having exterior advantages over other cars. Russian market... But we are talking precisely about the choice between Priora and Grant in the back of a Hatchback.

If you ignore the fact that Granta and Priora have a decent difference in value, still General characteristics they are present and there are a lot of them, which makes the choice very difficult. Therefore, the main assistant here should be precisely the comparative analysis and the individual feelings of the buyer.

Inside, outside and under the hood

The interior and exterior is the first thing that catches the eye of a buyer in a car dealership. It is he who is appreciated in the first place when choosing models. Comparing Lada Priora or Lada Granta with foreign cars, you can see that their appearance is much poorer and more modest. What is now being done in Russia has long ceased to be produced abroad, although this is not surprising, the Soviet auto industry has always acted more as a catch-up than an advanced link in the automotive industry. And the Liftback option is increasingly replacing the Hatchback body.

Granta Hatchback looks more solid than its rival Priora. A more modern and beautiful design puts it in a good light. The difference in age (Grant was released 4 years later), naturally, affects the appearance of the car, since a more modern approach is observed and outdated body parts have been removed from the structure.

However, in terms of interior decoration and convenience, the leadership is supported by the Priora Hatchback. The interior of the Priora uses better material and more comfortable (albeit outdated) seats.

Technical characteristics are basic for a motorist when choosing a vehicle. Engine power, fuel consumption and many other criteria are taken into account. Priora and Grant are practically equipped with the same power units, and their difference depends more on the configuration than on the model, which cannot be said about the gearbox.

The Granta Hatchback is ahead of the Priora, especially the modifications of the last years of production. This is due to the fact that they began to install improved mechanics on Grant, which surpasses the outdated gearbox on the Priora. It is distinguished by a more convenient switch, easily amenable to commands, as well as the absence of vibration, which has practically become an indispensable feature of the Soviet automobile industry.

Fuel consumption for both Lada models is the same, and this is due to the similarity of engines and their characteristics. However, the newer Granta model is better adapted to the roads and improved, so you should not be surprised if it still surpasses its rival in fuel consumption by 1-2 liters.

The automatic transmission is a separate topic. Since Lada Priora has not yet acquired an “automatic”, fans of such a transmission will prefer to choose Grant. But you should not hope for a simplified life, since automation is so far an innovation in the Russian automobile industry and therefore you can expect more problems from automatic transmissions than from old, but faithful mechanics.

The state of the suspension for Priora and Grant is equivalent. In modern models, it has been improved and is highly reliable. But still Granta is a more modern model and its suspension will be newer and more perfect. This plays a big role in car repair or tuning. It is easier to find and replace a modern part than to find an alternative to an outdated model.

Price offers and configurations

The analysis of the cost of the models will help you get closer to the decision which one is better to take. Considering that the Priora at the price of the minimum configuration costs the same as the Lada Granta in the luxury configuration, you can immediately prioritize. And really, why pay for an empty Priora, if for the same money you can take a completely filled Grant and be happy if you are satisfied with all the characteristics?

Lada Priora is a more ergonomic model. She has already earned a "name" for herself and has earned respect among young people. The model is popular even with a minimum configuration, and this is due to the possibility of easy tuning. Since the car has already been well studied by users, it is possible to mold a unique sports car and an excellent suburban "carriage" from it.

Of the disadvantages of the Priora, it is necessary to note the rack. But part of the blame for their rapid wear and tear can be blamed on the quality of the roads, and besides, the stands on the Priora are not so expensive. Therefore, even if, with a terribly poor operation, they "fly" after 5-6 years, they can be easily obtained and replaced.

The luxury equipment is presented with a power steering, air conditioner, ABC system, with power windows and airbags for the passenger. The "norm" grade differs from the first in the absence of rear automatic windows, fog lights, alloy wheels and, of course, parking sensors.

Lada Granta attracts buyers with a fairly quiet engine, due to the presence of modern and high-quality noise insulation. Engines Grants develop power of 80, 90 and 98 horsepower, depending on the configuration. Improved dynamics and aerodynamics have reduced the acceleration time of the car to 100 km / h to 12 seconds. Salon Lada Grants is made in European style and is distinguished by special comfort and silence.

Here the buyer is offered a wider choice of configurations: "norm", "standard" and "luxury". A more roomy trunk is a clear advantage, since our car owners, in the old fashioned way, strive to put almost a whole sofa in a car. Well, jokes aside, 500 liters is quite an impressive volume for a hatchback class car.

Of the shortcomings, the driver will notice a slight crackling after several thousand kilometers and the absence of an engine temperature sensor. But there are no complaints about security. Some are also attracted by the later date of the start of production of the car. After all, the Russian mentality has developed in such a way that everything released later than the previous one will be much better, and everything that is taken from Europe for personal experience will be much better. But why is the price of Priora still higher? This is already a question of pricing and the so-called "firm secret".

What should you choose?

Priora or Grant - the choice is more symbolic than some kind of technical. Almost identical cars with minor differences, created at the same enterprise. It is captivating that Lada Granta is 4 years younger than Priora, but an older, more experienced and already proven car can still give odds to the younger generation.

Fewer parts in Grant may have contributed to its cheapness. This simplifies the design of the car, reduces weight and improves driving performance. Granta, as mentioned above, is a relatively new model in the automotive market, and no one still fully knows how it can behave. This uncertainty and lack of knowledge scare buyers. The price adds fuel to the fire, which is perceived as "cheaper is worse."

Significant factors when choosing a car between Lada Granta Hatchback and Lada Priora Hatchback will be both the operating conditions and the purposes for which the car is purchased. For example, girls and women prefer to choose a car with an automatic transmission and a more modern look. For summer residents, it is advised to purchase a Lada Grant due to roomy trunk... Priora is suitable for young people, lends itself well to chic tuning and, like a transforming robot, can be converted into a car with an individual character.

Important information for choosing a car will also be the fact that for Priora at the moment it is much easier to get inexpensive used spare parts. But for Grants, you will have to look for either new or analogs from foreign cars that have already been in use, since the analysis of these cars is just beginning to develop.

As for the used Lada Granta and Lada Priora, here already all the characteristics indicated above lose their validity, and it is necessary to compare only in terms of performance. For it does not matter where the engine is better, if one of them has already been moved three times, and it does not even matter which gearbox, automatic or mechanic, if the first becomes faulty immediately after signing the sales contract. Each car enthusiast makes a choice for himself, and therefore it is primarily up to him to decide what to ride.

"Grant" or "Priora" - which is better? Comparative characteristics and reviews of the owners about the "Grant" and "Prior" :: SYL.ru

Currently, among the population of the Russian Federation, vehicles manufactured by Lada are very popular. This is a domestic firm. It produces a considerable number of car models, in connection with which people who have decided to give preference to the company's products often wonder whether Grant or Priora is better.

Introduction

The choice of our compatriots is conditioned by a number of parameters. The first and, I think, the most important is, of course, the price of the car. Compared to foreign cars, Lada's products are not so expensive. And components, spare parts for cars on the market can be found much easier. They will also come out cheaper than for foreign cars. It is worth noting that in all this variety of models sold, a special niche is occupied by those two cars, which we, in fact, will talk about throughout the article. These two vehicles are statistically the best-selling vehicles of all models. It is possible that you have just decided to buy a Lada. And here, logically, the question arises before the buyer. "Grant" or "Priora" - which is better? There is nothing strange in this, but we will try to understand in more detail with each of the cars, find out its advantages and disadvantages. These two models have a lot in common. It is interesting that at the same time they are in quite different price categories. And this clearly does not play into the hands in the case of a choice between two cars. So the only method that will help us to answer the question of "Grant" or "Priora" - which is better, will be a detailed analysis with all comparisons for similar types of car characteristics.

Comparison of external and internal appearance

At the very first stages of a detailed comparison of two cars (and this is not only about deciding whether "Lada Granta" or "Priora" is better), one must first of all pay attention to their interior and exterior. Perhaps someone will disagree with this, but this is not a personal opinion, but simply a statement of fact obtained on the basis of surveys of motorists.

So, if we took one of these models as a basis and tried to compare each of them with foreign cars, then, most likely, both models would be defeated. Here, of course, a lot depends on the foreign “opponent”. But again, based on foreign standards, we can safely say that in terms of its appearance, "Grant" is much closer to the conditional bar than "Priora".

Thus, we are already starting to form the prerequisites for answering the question of which is better: "Priora" or "Granta-liftback". Indeed, the latter looks pretty good compared to the other model. Although “Priora” is far from a miss, it still lacks something in the fight in “Granta”. Earlier, some experts have compared three models at once. They tried to answer the question of which is better: "Kalina", "Grant" or "Priora". The results were highly anticipated. But the topic of our article is somewhat different, so we will not be distracted by analyzing the question of three models.

First conclusions

So, "Granta" has a more modern, more beautiful design than "Priora". It is worth noting the fact that both models have a certain basic configuration... And this equipment for the first car costs much less than that of the second. Here we can definitely say that in its appearance the Priora (although it is simply impossible to say that it looks awful) is still inferior to Grant. It seems that the scales at this point should tip in favor of the latest model, but nothing of the kind is happening. The fact is that in terms of seating, the "Priora" will be much more comfortable. You need to take into account the quality of the material from which they are made. Thus, Lada Priora equalizes the score. And we will continue to consider the characteristics of these two cars in order to find out which is better: "Priora" or "Granta-sport".

Analysis of technical equipment of cars

Probably, no one will argue with the fact that many people, when choosing a car, pay special attention to the study of the so-called "fuel efficiency". That is, attention is paid to how much fuel is consumed car engine... These two models are equipped with almost the same engines. The manufacturers of the concern decided on such an interesting move.

If we take both cars in the same configuration, then in terms of technical characteristics, we will hardly notice any special differences between the models. However, it is worth saying a few words about the gearbox possessed by Lada Granta. It is definitely better than Priora. The fact is that today a newer version of the manual gearbox is built into this vehicle. It surpasses the previous one, if not in all respects, then in the overwhelming number of them, for sure. Switching between gears has become much more convenient. The vibration has almost completely disappeared somewhere.

Complete set

If we take two identical configurations, then in terms of fuel consumption, these car models will practically not differ. If you are one of the motorists who prefer an automatic transmission, then, most likely, like many of your like-minded people, will cast your vote in favor of Lada Grants. Let's not forget that there is no automatic box gear shifting. And whether this is a plus or a minus - it is no longer for us to figure it out. Both models can boast of the fact that they have a fairly reliable, high-quality suspension. But, no matter how reliable it is, the Lada Grants will still have it better, since the model itself came out on the market later than the Priora. This means that the suspension was developed by designers and improved engineers. So let's summarize. “Grant” has a certain advantage in terms of technical characteristics. But in general, the models differ insignificantly. Therefore, the advantage can be written down not as a whole point, but only in half. Next, we will consider how the cost of cars in different trim levels correlates, in order to then give an answer to the question of what is better to take: "Grant" or "Priora".

Next step of comparison

Of course, a review of the technical characteristics, as well as their step-by-step comparison, is an excellent move, allowing in some cases to draw preliminary conclusions, to prepare a preliminary result of the entire comparison. But relying on the opinion only about them will not be entirely correct. Therefore, at the very beginning of the article, the topic of the external and internal appearance of cars was touched upon, and now we will try to answer the question of whether "Lada Granta-liftback" or "Priora" is better, based on, among other things, information on vehicle trim levels presented on market.

In general, about the ratio of prices

So, the cheapest version of "Priora" will cost about the same amount as "Grant", presented in a luxury package. If someone still does not understand what is at stake, we will try to explain in a little more accessible and more detailed way. If we take the aforementioned “Grants” package, then it will have an electric power steering, air conditioning (which has recently become very important in the summer, especially in the South of Russia, where the temperature rises to 50 degrees during the day). Also, an airbag will be built into the "Grant". But if we take for comparison “Priora” for the same money, you simply will not see all these elements in it, since they are not there. With such "bells and whistles" "Priora" will cost much more.

"Priora": advantages and disadvantages

If we were to analyze the models separately, then the latter could, of course, have several strengths. It is enough to remember that Lada Priora is ergonomic. Evaluating it on a five-point scale, you can give a four. And confident, strong. This model is in great demand among our youth. Its production, as you know, started several years ago, in 2007.

But the car racks are a real minus of the model. Considering the unreliable roads in our country, the racks simply fall apart. If you pass a verdict on the basis of some general parameters, then it should be noted that in this regard, "Lada Priora" is not bad. The model has many buyers at the present time. "Priora" is supplied to the market in two configurations. These are “Normal” and “Lux”. The first includes front power windows, on-board computer, airbag, headlight range control. The second has the same elements, but an air conditioner is added to them, as well as ABC, EBD. There is a noticeable difference between trim levels and in the appearance of cars. The luxury model has fog lights, alloy wheels, parking sensors.

"Grant": advantages and disadvantages

And "Lada Granta" is equipped with an engine that produces much less noise. This is achieved through the use of modern noise insulation modules in the design. The Lada Grants line is presented in three modifications, the engine power of which is 80, 90 and 98 horsepower, respectively.

The car interior is made, one might say, in a European style. It is distinguished by its characteristics, namely a high level of quietness and ride comfort. The production of the model started not so long ago, only in 2011. The basis was the device of the previous car - "Lada Kalina". The following year, three complete sets appeared on the car market under the names "Lux", "Standard" and "Norm".

The trunk of the "Grants" is more capacious than that of the "Priora". Its volume is equal to 5 hundred liters. But the model also has its drawbacks, as does every car. After walking several thousand kilometers for this car, all drivers are faced with the fact that transport begins to crackle corny. There is no sensor that shows what temperature the engine has.

Who is “Grant” suitable for?

But in terms of safety, the car meets absolutely all standards and requirements. It is difficult to enter a turn, moving at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. People from 30 to 59 years old often buy a car. But if, again, to answer the question of which is better: "Priora 2" or "Grant", based on the average characteristics and facts, then the answer is obvious: "Grant". The model turned out to be very successful, you can't argue with that.

Which is better: "Grant" or "Priora"? Owner reviews

Almost all owners note that the technical equipment of "Grants" will be better than that of its rival. Very often "Priora" has problems with the pump. Since the "Grant" was developed later, it is not at all surprising that the car has been modified technically. Many drivers, who had previously used Kalina as a car, moved to Grant, citing its advantages.

What is better to choose - Lada Granta or Priora? Comparison and reviews

Often people who decide to buy a car are faced with a difficult choice. Which car is better domestic or foreign? New or used? Which car is the leader or, on the contrary, is not very popular? Let's try to understand this difficult situation and give novice car owners some practical advice.

Unfortunately, the next round of the economic crisis has led to the fact that the leading popular brands of foreign cars have become practically inaccessible to the average Russian buyer. And he more and more often began to turn his gaze towards domestic auto products.

As a result, interest in our cars increased, and sales began to grow steadily. Moreover, just in time, the leader of the Russian car industry, AVTOVAZ, launched several new models on the market and made serious updates to the existing ones.

We can safely say that the most bought cars of 2015 were the Lada Granta and Lada Priora models. Let's take a close look at these machines, compare their prices and characteristics. Determine which is better than Priora or Grant?

By what parameters will we compare Grant and Priora?

By and large, each of these models occupies its own niche in the car market and it is probably not ethical enough to compare them. But it is precisely this question that constantly worries our audience.

So Lada Priora is a logical continuation of the tenth model already out of production. Its logical modification, the outlines of which are clearly visible in the silhouette of Priora. And Lada Granta was conceived and executed as a completely new car designed to replace the outdated "classics" on the market. Let's go to meet customer demand and look for an answer to the question: "What is better than Grant or Prior?" just comparing these cars.

Comparison of appearance

Let's start, as is customary, with the appearance of cars. Let's see what options for the interior and exterior are offered to us. The Priora has the outlines of a classic sedan, a bit like its predecessor. The shape of its body, unfortunately, can no longer be called modern, it is most likely more traditional.

Despite the restyling of the model in 2014, the body has not undergone major changes. Priora received new headlights, a new bumper and rear dimensions. The car looks better, but not much. But inside, there have been more drastic changes.

New materials of the “soft-look” line were applied and the interior began to look much richer. Although the old problems remain - if you have impressive dimensions, then you will be a little cramped in the driver's seat.

But Grants have more than enough space, the interior is spacious and comfortable. The picture is spoiled by the cheap plastic from which the dashboard is made.

I would like to talk about the external appearance separately. It is modern, stylish and interesting. The car has swift contours, original headlights and bumpers, new running lights. And the Lada Granta, produced in the back of a liftback, is practically indistinguishable from a good foreign car. Comparison of Grant or Priora, which looks better, certainly wins the Lada Granta.

Comparison of complete sets and prices Grants and Priors

Now about the trim levels and prices. Lada Priora is the only car in our country that is available in four body styles - sedan, hatchback, station wagon and coupe. If you are a fan of station wagons, then Priora has no competitors.

Grant is not issued in this body. It is marketed as a sedan, liftback and sports car. If Priora has two configurations for all models, Norma and Lux, then Grants added the third (cheapest) Standard.

Interestingly, the low-cost configurations of the Priora are equipped much better than the similar configurations of the Grants. But they also cost significantly more. But in the Lux trim levels, the differences in the issue of Priora or Grant practically disappear.

The same set of expensive options assumes the presence of an electric power steering, front airbags, heated seats, a modern multimedia system, on-board computer with many features and more.

And again, Lada Granta in the most expensive Lux configuration is 10-15% cheaper than the same Priora. This is achieved due to the fact that in the design of Lada Grant, the number of small parts used in the assembly of the body is significantly reduced.

Hence the reduction of the noise level, and the elimination of all sorts of rattles and squeaks, which so annoyed the previous vase owners. The presence of a wide variety of picking is a huge plus for Lada Granta, since the car is becoming available to almost all, the main segments of the population.

We deliberately do not provide specific prices for this or that model, but we are trying to show the main trends, because the price gap for different sellers can be very different from each other. We conclude that the comparison between Grant and Prior, with regards to pricing policy, again remains with Grant.

Comparison by technical characteristics

When asked what better Lada Grant or Priora in terms of technical characteristics, the opinions of car owners are almost the same. There are not so many fundamental differences between cars - they are equipped with the same motors and almost the same gearboxes.

The Priora lineup is represented by two engines 98 and 106 hp. with a manual transmission, and Granta has four engines - 82 and 87 hp are added, and the box is represented by mechanics, a robot and an automatic.

Much more attention is paid to discussions on how to eliminate the eternal shortcomings of the Priora - repair of struts and power steering. Although, according to the manufacturer's assurances, they are eliminated in the restyled version of the Priora.

A really serious technical problem for Priora is that when the alternator belt breaks, the valve bends. And it was not possible to solve this problem in the new 21127 engine, which was developed for the updated Priora. It seems that the problem will not be solved, since there are persistent rumors that the Priora is being produced for the last year.

Three years of operation of the Lada Grant did not reveal such serious problems (common), the solution of which must be sought by the whole world. The exception is the generator bearing, which often fails. When deciding for yourself Lada Granta or Priora which is better, you must have all of the above in your head. And our sympathies are again on the side of Grants - she is fresher and more technological.

Owners' opinion about cars

A separate line would like to dwell on the comparison of which is better than the Priora or Grant liftback (hatchback). Because this question is very common in various automotive forums. The liftback is just a kind of Grants, another modification of it, and not another car. Naturally, in appearance it surpasses the Priora completely, and in terms of technical characteristics they are quite similar.

Studying the opinions of users on the network, what is better than Priora or Grant, reviews can be divided into several categories. Most prefer Grant, although they are afraid of her novelty. Others stand in the positions of Priora, motivating them with vital reliability. And there are still others, whose opinion boils down to one thing - a VAZ car is like a lot in the lottery, you will be lucky and you will not know any problems. And if you're unlucky, no model will help.

Comparison of sports modifications Grants and Priors

Comparing Priors and Grants, one cannot fail to mention sports models. If sports Priora is a logical continuation of the classics of the model, then Granta Sport can claim the title of a car that has its own new face.

Here and a new sports suspension, and an improved gearbox, and adjustable camber. The exterior of the car is distinguished by an aggressive character, rapid modern contours. Numerous test drives of Priora against Grants have shown that if the usual Grant loses to the Priore in dynamics, then in the sport version of Grant it is much faster.

Outcomes

Summing up what to choose Grant or Priora, we can say that in our comparison, Lada Granta still looks preferable. It is fresher and more modern and has a wider range of trim levels. But, ultimately, Priora or Lada Granta is up to you to decide. Read, think, choose.

Which is better: Lada Priora hatchback or Granta liftback

Very often, when choosing a car, future car owners are wondering which car to give preference to, including that nuance, whether the foreign option is better or whether it is worth paying attention to a fellow countryman. Let's understand the issue.

Taking into account the fact that the crisis has slightly knocked down the high turnovers in the car sales market, it would be fair to clarify the point that more and more car owners are opting for technology. Russian production... So which is better - Grant or Priora? If you think about it, both of these models are good, each in its own way. In theory, the Lada Priora is quite similar to the tenth model, which has already ceased to be produced. But Lada Granta was released with the aim of bringing something new to the market of the Russian car industry, for people who are tired of the classics that have long boring everyone. But, nevertheless, we will not immediately erect the car on a pedestal, if it is new, so let's start.

Grant or Priora?

Lada Priora already has four body options, which distinguishes it from many other cars, because this is the only brand in Russia that has so many body variations and other features. Grant cannot boast of such a variety of bodies, but she has a set of rather expensive options, for example, an electric power steering. Although, all the same can be said about the Prior. In terms of configuration, the Priora is insignificant, but it stands out against the background of Grants, because it is equipped inexpensively, but effectively. But if Priora has thought out only two configurations for all models, then Grants also have a third, the most affordable for purchase, which is called Standard.

Which option is better and where to stop - trying to figure it out

• The Priora lineup is represented by two engines 98 and 106 hp. with mechanical box gear. What cannot be said about Grant, because this type of car has as many as four engines, and the gearbox is not only mechanical, but also represented by a robot and an automatic, which is very convenient, you must agree.
• But when making a comparison between these albeit similar models, but still slightly different in nuances, it is worth mentioning sports models. Priora in a sporty style is a direct continuation of the classic version of the car, but Granta Sport stands out in this regard, since it is thought out a little differently. Granta has a new sports suspension, a completely improved gearbox, a more fashionable aggressive look. It is worth noting that Priora loses a little to its opponent in agility, which has been proven by numerous tests.
• Strictly speaking, Granta's salon is slightly worse equipped. The seats are not as soft and comfortable as we would like. The landing is less comfortable than the Priora, which characterizes Grant as a model designed exclusively for moving around the city.
• If we take both of these cars in the same configuration, then we will hardly find serious differences between the models in technical indicators. But it is worth saying a few words about the gearbox possessed by Lada Granta. It is certainly superior to that of Priora. The thing is that now the most updated version of a manual gearbox is integrated into the vehicle provided. It exceeds the previous one, if not in absolutely all characteristics, then in their huge number, that's for sure. Switching between gears has become much more comfortable. Vibration is almost completely gone somewhere. So which is better, Lada Granta or Lada Priora? The next indicator of comparison would be that:
• The trunk of Grants is several times larger than that of Priora. Its size is equivalent to five hundred liters. However, the model has its own shortcomings, like any car. After passing a certain number of thousands of kilometers on the provided car, all drivers are faced with the fact that the vehicles just start to crack. There is simply no meter that indicates what temperature the engine has.
• If we touch on the topic of security, then it is better to choose Grant, because this model complies with all the presented quality standards. Agree, it is quite difficult to fit into a turn at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, and Granta copes with this task perfectly.
• Almost all car owners notice that Technical equipment Grants are slightly better than those of its competitor. Quite often Priora has problems with the pump. Since Granta was invented later, it is not at all surprising that the card was modified in a technical version. Almost all the drivers, who had previously used Kalina as a punishment, moved to Granta, citing her superiority as an argument.

Compare all the pros and cons

To begin with, it should be said that Lada Priora is considered an adherent of the B-class, but Granta belongs to the C-class. Their bodies differ significantly, primarily in terms of volume. Granta is the most massive, especially for the universal version of the car, which is not always excellent in the criteria of the city. In city traffic jams, the Priora looks better. It fits perfectly into the tightest parking spots. Therefore, if your task is to continuously move around the city, then it is best to take the Priora. For people who often need to transport a large volume of cargo, Grant is more suitable.

Outside, Grant looks more solid. Its features are virtually devoid of sports lines, which makes it a car for serious people. As a rule, this option is chosen by people with extensive experience in driving a motor vehicle. Priora looks the most disposed, therefore, probably, young people love her so much. This model is often used as the basis for body tuning. Both cars are made with all safety requirements in mind. The bodies are made taking into account the stiffening ribs. There are also areas with programmable crushing, which does not overload the cabin and allows less damage on impact. But as a result, they still got a low score in the safety assessment. Despite the fact that due to the more efficient Grant pillows, it is considered a safer car.

Priora hatchback or Granta liftback, which is better? Summing up what to choose Grant or Priora, I would like to say that in our comparison, Lada Granta still looks a little better than its rival. It is the freshest and most modern and has the widest set of parameters for a decent car. Only in the final score, Priora or Lada Granta is up to you, of course. Read, reflect, think and choose the car brand that is perfect for you.

Lada Vesta Hatchback or Liftback ???

Internet users involved in automotive topics are actively discussing the recently appeared in the network a snapshot of the new version of Lada Vesta - one of the most popular cars in Russia. The increased interest of the Internet public is due to the fact that a car with a hatchback body modification got into the photo lens. It is assumed that this particular model will continue the line of cars from the Russian manufacturer.

About AVTOVAZ projects for the production LADA Vesta the hatchback was first reported by officials in 2016. However, the show of the model that took place then was completely closed, so video and photographic materials were banned. In May of this year, a car novelty from LADA Vesta was featured in a small video. Nevertheless, the fragment with the car turned out to be so short that it was impossible to consider the version of its body. In this regard, various guesses appeared, which were joined even by the magazine "Za Rulem", which published its assumptions regarding the design of the new hatchback.

The picture of LADA Vesta that has appeared on the Internet now gives reason to think about this type of body. The camouflage fabric carefully hid all the elements of the car's appearance from prying eyes, but left the outlines of its silhouette. They testify that the new product from AVTOVAZ is not a classic hatchback, but such a body modification as a liftback. It is in this type of body that "Lada Granta" is produced.

The picture suggests that the development of a new version at AVTOVAZ is still ongoing. Among the new details noticed, diode optics should be noted. The manufacturer planned to organize the presentation of the new model this fall. But specific dates have not yet been officially announced. Perhaps the timing of the premiere of the Lada Vesta hatchback will be postponed.
