Characteristics, anatomy, history and impressions from the test drive, you will be able to read this article.

History

It All began in 2014, when the President of the concern "AVTOVAZ" has become Bo Inge Andersson. Under his leadership, the group's development programme has been completely revised model range has undergone a sea change. It was decided to create in the coming years, brand new cars that will replace a completely obsolete model number of the company.

The First model was the «Lada Vesta”, the characteristics of which are described below. The car is based on the platform, which first appeared in 2012, the concept crossover X-ray. The crossover, the company has shelved and undertook the creation of the "West".

To create the new car has attracted the world's experts. In the end, the design of the exterior and interior were engaged in Briton Steve Mattin. By the end of 2014 came the first test instance. Production was started in Russia, in city Izhevsk. A year later held a solemn presentation of the production version of the "West". Immediately after that, began serial production of the car.

The Policy of the release of the bodies of the new model are the following: first received on the conveyor sedan, then had the hatchback and is scheduled to run off-road wagon "Lada Vesta", the characteristics of which are as yet unknown.

Reasonable expectations

After the advent of the first car from the new line of jokes about the Russian car industry has slightly faded into the background. New Vesta was pleasantly surprised by all the automotive community. Even abroad about the new automotive critics responded in a positive way. Despite the inflated price tag, the car is popular among car enthusiasts which is the best indicator of the success of new products.

Many did not believe that such a successful model is comprised almost entirely of parts manufactured in Russia. 65 percent of car are produced in Togliatti. The creators use foreign components from Renault only a third of the car. However, for import to other countries almost all the technical part of the car is based on French components and parts. «Lada Vesta”, the characteristics of which are quite impressive, consists of Russian components only on the domestic market.

Appearance

The Pride of AVTOVAZ that the whole appearance of the exterior and interior was completely designed by the group. However, without foreign designers no cost. Oversaw the creation of the future sedan Briton Stephen Mattin, who has previously worked on major projects in Mercedes, Volvo and even designed a body for one of the projects Maybach (manufacturer of luxury sedans).

To Call the sedan beautiful or not – this is a purely subjective assessment. The car is not put off from yourself, and this is a big victory of the Russian automobile industry. The main merit of hard work of designers that the brand new is not similar to any previous model of "Lada". Mattin has developed a unique feature for future line of auto – X-shape. Exactly the same features seen in X-ray, which is on the road to the pipeline have become compact hatchback from the full-size crossover.

The New “Lada Vesta”, the characteristics of which go to all the previous models of AVTOVAZ, really pleasantly surprised with its design. Many speak negatively about the X design, but it is a matter of taste. Most importantly, the designers managed to draw attention to the car and not leave anyone indifferent to their offspring.

Interior

The Interior – this is the second point for which I want to praise the car «Lada Vesta". The price and features this model is fully balanced. If you remove the steering wheel "Vesta" emblem rooks, then it is unlikely you'll know what car belongs to this salon. Largely the front panel is similar to the Korean competitors, but is rather a praise than a reproach in the direction of the creators: the Koreans in the last few years producing very high quality machines.

The Trunk in the sedan is roomy, but smaller Luggage compartment in the car «Lada Vesta” hatchback. Characteristics of the next volume: 480 liters in the normal state and the possibility of transportation of long-length, if you remove the rear seat. All passengers comfortable enough, there is enough space even for tall and big people.

«Lada Vesta”: specifications, price

Despite remarkable achievements in terms of design, comfort, and other technical characteristics of the car leave much to be desired. At the moment you can purchase a version with only one engine. Under the hood is set 1.6-liter engine capacity of 106 horsepower. The car is sold ormanual 5-speed or automatic 5-speed transmission. The machine consumes 9 liters of fuel per 100 kilometres in urban setting, up to 6 liters in the city and 7 liters on the combined cycle. The car has front-wheel drive and accelerates to 100 km/h on a mechanical box for 11 seconds and on the machine for 14 seconds. The maximum speed is 175 km/h. the Price depends on the configuration of the car.

Configuration

For the most simple complete set "classic" and a manual transmission will have to pay 514 thousand rubles. The richest version with additional options will cost 730 thousand rubles (for the version with automatic transmission). For such a high price tag, many critics and car enthusiasts dislike the car «Lada Vesta". Specifications, price – these are the moments that stop buyers in their desire to get a new product.

Let's hope that the next update of the model of AVTOVAZ will fix all the defects and present superior car.
