Today we will conduct a long-awaited review. "Lada Vesta" - a new car from the VAZ, striking the minds of car connoisseurs with an original approach to creating cars. It always seemed to our people that the Russian auto industry could not create a masterpiece, but for its price, Lada Vesta is such. Of course, there are some flaws in it, but against the background of other cars of this manufacturer, it took an honorable first place. When creating this vehicle, a new approach was applied in all aspects: design, production, as well as design.
Given the labor invested in this car, and its difference from its predecessors, we will try to give a completely objective review. Lada Vesta, of course, will stand out from the rest. And if most of the reviews about other AvtoVAZ cars cannot be called positive, then when creating this model the collective of the VAZ bureau seems to have taken into account all its flaws.
Design
This you have not seen before! This car has an incredibly original and thoughtful exterior compared to the rest of the factory’s cars. Of course, some recognizable VAZ elements have been preserved (for example, the front part is proprietary, albeit beautiful), but in general the design is completely similar to the Lada Vesta car concept presented earlier. So, they left a taut stern, as well as beautiful stampings on the Vesta profile.
But the car differs from the concept wheels. So, depending on the configuration, the new Lada Vesta will have 15-16-inch wheels. An overview of the side of the car will please the eye, regardless of the viewing distance. You can look at the car from far away or close, but it will still be excellent. In terms of design, the Lada Vesta is simply beautiful.
Overview: interior, exterior
Externally, the car looks decent. If a person who is not versed in cars looks at her, at first glance he will not understand that this miracle was developed in Russia, so everyone is used to the fact that the design is slightly better than the old Soviet Zhiguli for products manufactured by AvtoVAZ. And it’s hard to believe that a handsome man with recesses, a beautiful grille on the front bumper is a Russian product. Although this is a creation of engineers from Togliatti.
The interior is no less surprising: the speedometer, fuel level sensor and other instrument panels look incredibly modern in a car called the Lada Vesta. We give a brief overview of the cabin. For decoration, a simple, in the best sense of the word, plastic is used, creating an incredibly minimalist design. Special attention should be paid to the ergonomics of the car: it is a cut above what we did before. For example, controlling the climate unit is even more convenient.
Functionality
In this subsection - positive qualities review. "Lada Vesta" is quite comfortable for the driver and passengers.
- The car is characterized by a roomy and deep trunk with a volume of 480 liters, which is an order of magnitude larger than the storage compartment in the Volkswagen Polo and Ford Fiesta, which are quite popular cars.
- Riding in the back seat is comfortable even for a person with a height of 180 centimeters, there is enough space in front, but if a man is taller in the back seat, there may not be enough space from above. And this applies to cases when one person rides in the back seat. If there are several passengers, it becomes crowded. However, in the back seats can fit three people of average height, which is pretty good.
- The thrill of driving a car is also staggering. Great road view. "Lada Vesta" is equipped with high-quality fog lamps in the "luxury" package, and the level of comfort for the driver is the highest. In expensive variations, even seat height adjustment is available, the absence of which was a serious problem for cars of this manufacturer earlier. Of particular note are the speakers that never sound as good as they are now.
- It is important to note the noiselessness of the gearbox. Gone are the days when she growled like a tractor. Now everything is modern.
Here for such, at first glance, insignificant nuances, you should love this car.
As we see, in Tolyatti they began to pay attention to trifles, which never prevented from increasing sales. It seems that before, specialists corrected only immediately obvious defects, and the small ones did not even try to look for them. But competitors constantly show us that there are no trifles. After all, if you put them together, you get a terrible product. But it is hoped that this is already in the past. Here is a brief description of the functionality of the new Lada Vesta model.
Overview, the price of different trim levels
It is planned to release the car in three trim levels, although their total number can reach twelve thanks to the new AvtoVAZ policy. Now the car began to resemble almost a constructor (with certain limitations): you can choose for yourself the most necessary components and features of the machine. Here are the basic configurations and prices for them:
- "Classic" - the basic equipment, for which you will have to pay 514 thousand rubles. Even in the cheapest version, the Lada is equipped with electronic warning systems for the likelihood of a collision, has a 5-speed manual gearbox, 106 horsepower. If you pay 25 thousand rubles, it becomes possible to get a car with automatic equipment. The car has no airbags .
- The “comfort” package will cost 570 thousand rubles, it has body-colored mirrors and door handles, as well as heating with a parking assistant.
- "Suite". The most expensive equipment will be equipped with a rain sensor and foglights and costs 609 thousand rubles, which is quite democratic.
External characteristics
The car is available in sedan and hatchback. In the first case, the length will be 4.41 meters, and in the second - 4.25 meters. The width of the car is 176.4 centimeters, and the height is almost 150 centimeters.
Specifications
- The maximum speed is 185 km / h, and a car picks up a hundred in 10 seconds.
- Manual transmission with the ability to buy an automatic machine using options.
- Disc brakes with ABS as standard.
findings
Of course, this car cannot be called the best in the world. For a slightly higher price there are competitors and more worthy. But the new "Lada Vesta", the review of which we conducted, is absolutely perfect against the background of previous creations of the domestic manufacturer. Of course, all the advantages can not be considered in such a short article. And we can safely say, summarizing the whole review: "Lada Vesta" - a car with an optimal ratio of price and quality. And this cannot but rejoice.
