The development of the first instances

Back in the early 70-ies a large group of designers headed by Steshenko developed this model. Then the team was able to implement a new concept both on paper and as the metal elements. It is necessary to clarify that already at that time plans were drawn up a series of cars that had some improved parts and was a modification of the original model ZAZ “brand”. Among the possible structures were pickup, sedan, wagon, truck.

The Power unit of the first copy, which was released in 1970, was a the engine, clutch and gear box 5-speed. Also installed additional instruments to improve the dynamics of the vehicle and make it more stable on turns.

Release prototype “brand” the present day

After the plant began studying the world famous machine “Ford Fiesta”, it was decided to update the produced models. Due to this, in 1978 a new variation of the “brand”. Perhaps that it is a complete prototype of the extant models. This car became a pilot – the designers constantly consider new changes, came up with different concepts. For example, the plastic components of the car was 55 lbs. In the end, these copies were fully ready for serial production in 1978, But there was all so that the mass production did not start until closer to the 90-th years – in 1988, According to some it was due to the fact that the state is more preferred Volga car factory and moved the production of “brand” to exit the VAZ-2108 («Lada-Samara”).
