Dealers complain about Lada XRay Cross with CVT

As the LadaOnline portal found out, the range of spare parts for the car has not yet been finalized, and the warehouses are not filled. Car dealerships were not ready for the release of the new product. #LadaXRayCross, #variator, #dealers, #problems

On a new platform

…It must be said that the Italian de Meo has experience in the world’s leading automakers (Renault, Toyota, Fiat, Volkswagen) and many accomplishments. Thus, under his leadership, the highly successful, iconic Fiat 500 model was brought to the market; he led the SEAT brand to record sales and created the sports sub-brand Cupra... Therefore, Renault hopes for a real breakthrough with his arrival. And now a new development strategy for the group has been announced, the economic essence of which is that there is no need to chase an increase in car production around the world; the main task is to increase the profit that each brand will bring.

What does this mean for our AvtoVAZ? At first glance, this is the final loss of “our national identity”, because in just four years the familiar and, in principle, very successful models will leave the assembly line and the market: “Granta” (in production since 2004), “Niva” ( produced since 1977) and the youngest of all - “Vesta” (since 2015). And although their sales are at a very good level (last year, 2022 - 126.1 thousand units, 107.3 thousand and 29.1 thousand, respectively), one must understand that each of these models is built on its own platform - as a rule, very outdated (in the first two cases) - and for the production of each you need to keep a special conveyor thread. AvtoVAZ has special assembly lines for Grants, Nivas and Vestas. And another universal one, where they produce very different cars of different brands (Lada Largus, Lada XRAY, Renault Logan and Sandero). Over the past year, about 120 thousand cars were assembled there (not counting assembly kits that are supplied to other enterprises in different countries).

In principle, you can put other models on the same line, the main thing is that they must have one, common platform. Then production will be profitable! So the essence of the reform that is coming at AvtoVAZ is the complete and final transfer of all models to the single French CMF-B platform. The newest “European” Logan/Sandero family has already been released on this basis, as well as the Duster SUV, which they promise to show us in a month.

Alas, this is a fact: any attempt today to create your own original platform specifically for models from Tolyatti is pointless and is doomed to failure from the very beginning. Very expensive (from 2 billion euros), economically devastating if the annual production is less than 1 million cars. But a successful modular modern platform can become the basis for creating a wide variety of cars. For example, four dozen models are built on the MQB platform from the VW concern (Audi A1, A3, Q3; all SEAT models; Škoda Karoq, Kodiaq, Octavia, Superb; Volkswagen Caddy, Golf, Jetta, Passat, Tiguan, Teramont, etc. ). Yes, yes, both the small Audi A1 hatchback and the large seven-seater VW Teramont crossover are created on the same platform! Although if you put them side by side, you’ll never guess... So, on the other hand, there’s nothing wrong with the fact that both the Russian AvtoVAZ plant and the Romanian Dacia plant will create their own (very different, I hope!) models on the same platform; There is a huge field for the imagination of engineers, engineers and designers here.

About this theme

There is no need to worry about the fact that Russia’s own engineering will be reduced only to adapting machines on the CMF-B platform for Russian operating conditions. The Russian enterprise’s area of ​​responsibility includes the development of new models, their testing, fine-tuning, marketing, etc. By the way, close ties have long existed between Russian and Romanian factories. AvtoVAZ supplies body parts, components, and power units to Renault factories in Russia, Romania and Turkey. Renault and AvtoVAZ have common engineering and purchasing structures in Russia. By the way, in the Renault Group’s plan, the Lada brand has a special place; the slogan with which marketers describe it sounds like Rough & Tough (“severe and strong”). And in the future, the French would like to see it not as a regional brand, known mainly in Russia and the CIS countries, but as an international one. After all, there are still many countries in the world where they love brutal and reliable cars. With a masculine character...

As a result of the restructuring, by 2025 the two factories together will produce more than 1 million cars of at least 11 models - built on the same platform.

Where to begin?

The “Car Painting” business plan is a profitable proposition, because painting a car at home is a troublesome task. At the initial stage, you need to conduct a marketing analysis of the market in the area where you plan to open your own business.

It is worth finding out which niche is least occupied, with the minimum number of competitors, what will be new and original in the region, which goods and services are in greatest demand. All points must be taken into account. It is convenient to organize this business as part of a car service center. You can learn how to open a profitable car service from a business plan.

A business like car painting is very easy to start from scratch. Ideally, with minimal competition, you can start transporting goods, which will be a good addition to your business. To bring this idea to life and organize a profitable business, desire and time are not enough - for these purposes you need a car. Moreover, its price should not be too high or too low, in order to avoid cost overruns in its maintenance

How to understand that the painting is factory-made and what are its advantages

When buying a used car, it is better to give preference to the option with a branded coating. But to do this, you need to learn to recognize it. This skill will protect you from dishonest sellers who are trying to earn a couple of extra bills through deception.

The easiest way to ensure that varnish and paint were applied by specialists at the factory is to compare the shade. It should be the same on all parts. An exception may be a plastic part, such as a side mirror, spoiler or bumper. The same applies to gloss, which with high-quality painting will be uniform and bright.

It is worth looking for smudges at the bottom of the car. Branded painting eliminates such a defect, since it is applied using expensive equipment.

To be completely sure, you can measure the thickness of the paint layer with a special device. Indicators should be within 70-170 microns, and parts of one car can differ by a maximum of 20 microns.

If all signs point to original paintwork, the car is worth taking. This means that the car has not been in an accident, and the body will not begin to rust and crumble in the near future. Also, high-quality painting will allow you to enjoy the beautiful appearance of the model; it will not lose its shine and color for many years.

Non-warranty paint defects

AvtoVAZ gives a 6-year warranty on body parts against through corrosion.
This period starts from the date of purchase of the car by the first owner. The following defects are not considered a warranty case:

• significant difference in the thickness of the Lada Vesta paintwork;
• the presence of so-called saffron milk caps on body elements;
• corrosion of metal in places where chips form;
• peeling varnish;
• spray, varnish drips, craters on the surface of the paintwork.

The dealer may not recognize the paint defect of the Lada Vesta as a warranty if the owner did not promptly carry out control and inspection work on the condition of the anti-corrosion coating of the body and there are no marks about this in the “Service Book” coupon.

Granta CNG

The Volga company plans to launch serial production of the CNG Granta sedan with gas equipment in 2022.

The machine will be equipped with a pair of gas cylinders, the total volume of which will be 200 liters. This amount of methane will allow the small car to travel a distance of 1050 km without refueling, while reconnecting to gasoline consumption occurs when gas reserves run out.

In terms of its exterior and interior, the gas sedan will be identical to the basic version with a gasoline engine.

The estimated price of the CNG modification will be 550 thousand rubles, which is more expensive than the traditional version, but taking into account the cost of gas, the difference can pay off within 2.5-3 years of operation.

How to measure the thickness of paintwork

A thickness gauge is used for this. The device is pre-adjusted using calibration plates that come with the tool. Settings are made separately for aluminum and steel elements. Checking the paintwork is carried out on a clean surface. In the presence of dirt and dust, the device may produce a large error.

To check the thickness of the Lada Vesta paintwork, the device is applied perpendicular to the surface being examined. The digital display will show the thickness to metal in micrometers. Measurements are taken in several areas.

A regular thickness gauge only works on metal areas. An ultrasonic device is used to work with plastic elements. It is used according to the same principle.

Vesta

The planned restyling of the 2022 Vesta, first of all, added style to the design due to a greater number of curves, protrusions and interesting transitions. The front of the car is characterized by its signature X-shaped style and embossed hood.

The interior has changed due to the use of higher quality materials in the decoration. The touch monitor of the multifunctional complex has also expanded and therefore become more convenient. The choice of power units will not change and will be presented in two petrol versions of 106 and 122 horsepower. With both engines it is possible to install a 5-speed automatic transmission or a 5-speed manual transmission. The new product will be presented in seven trim levels, with the most affordable costing 550 thousand rubles.

Largus FL

The fire alarm went off: what to do, where to call, action plan, shutdown

The restyled, or more precisely the facelifted, version of the 2019 Largus will have a design in the style of the Vesta and Xray models. Therefore, the updated version will change the shape of the headlights, wings, front bumper, and radiator grille. There are few changes in the interior; they will only affect the use of more anti-wear fabric upholstery and the use of additional sound-absorbing inserts.

Largus will continue to retain five and seven-seat configurations, as well as the currently installed power units. Such small changes are due to the fact that the company considers the model to be quite successful and therefore does not require deep modernization.

The new compact car is the company's light commercial vehicle, the production of which will be launched in 2022.

In the AvtoVAZ model range, the Van should become an addition to the Largus car. The new product is based on the Renault Dokker heel design, but the appearance will match the company's existing X-shaped style.

The technical characteristics of the vehicle will be almost identical to the Dokker, but the main advantage of the domestic truck will be a lower price due to the use of Russian-made materials and components.

Vesta Sport

Among the new AvtoVAZ products for 2019-2020, Vesta Sport stands out. A special feature of the car should be considered the fact that it was designed using racing developments, but at the same time adapted for driving on city and country roads.

Among the main differences in appearance from the standard Vesta, it should be noted:

• reconfigured front air intakes;
• enlarged rear bumper;
• body sill trims;
• spoiler on the trunk lid;
• alloy wheels.

The interior is finished in dark color with red accents and the architecture is practically no different from the standard version. The 145 hp engine gives the car high dynamics. With. Vesta Sport will go on sale in 2022, and the cost will be almost 1.0 million rubles.

XCODE

Reliable, practical and for only ₽250,000: when AvtoVAZ is definitely no longer needed.
chevrolet aveo 2008 A successful new product from AvtoVAZ for the 2019-2020 model year could be the company’s mini-crossover under the designation XCODE. The car is smaller in size than the Xray model and has an expressive appearance, which is characterized by both power and swiftness. In addition, the design contains all the signature features of the cars currently produced by the company.

The interior in its architecture and decoration will be very close to the Xray interior. The company notes that XCODE will receive rich equipment for domestic models. Among the systems and equipment planned for installation now it is necessary to note:

• LED optics;
• automatic braking;
• car valet;
• active cruise control.

The basic version will be equipped with a 109 hp engine. With. The transmission will receive both all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive. AvtoVAZ plans to provide detailed information about the model as the car is developed.

How to determine the manufacturer of the headlight unit?

• When choosing a headlight, you need to know which manufacturer of optics you have. They differ from each other in their configuration. Currently, at the AvtoVAZ plant, cars are equipped with 2 BOSCH headlights in Ryazan.

How to determine which headlight is on your car in order to purchase a second one exactly the same.

Take a close look at your headlight glass:

If it has the letter “K” in a circle (very similar to the Hyundai badge), then this is AvtoSvet OJSC, Kirzhach.

If it has the English letters “AL” on it, then it is “Automotive Lighting” BOSCH, Ryazan.

Enjoy your shopping.

If it has the English letters “AL” on it, then it is BOSCH.

Since the only correct decision is the selection of paint for a specific car, these tables can be used for car pencils. In the future, when people do send photos of their cars indicating the numbers in the service book, I will show you what cherry is, according to AVTOVAZ :).

The first table - I don’t remember where it came from.

Questa

In 2022, the Lada car lineup may be expanded with another interesting new product – the Questa model. The car will receive a futuristic design with elements in the X-code style.

Since this prototype currently exists exclusively in sketch format, there is a possibility that the model will remain on paper, like the UAZ Patriot version previously created by Vyacheslav Alexandrov. If the car does go into production (naturally, very vaguely resembling a futuristic concept), then it will be the first domestic supercar.

Preparing the tools

In order for the work of painting the ceiling to go quickly, and the result to please you with the quality, it is very important to take care in advance of having the necessary tools

1. Rollers and brushes. To paint the ceiling, choose rollers with thick, medium-length pile. It is better to avoid rollers with long piles, as they leave roughness on the painted surface. Foam rollers are also not suitable. They pick up a small amount of paint, resulting in unpainted bald spots on the painted surface. To paint corners and hard-to-reach places, you will need narrow brushes.
2. Paint tray. It’s good if the bottom of the container is embossed. This will help you better squeeze out excess paint onto rollers or brushes.
3. Metal spatula (it is more convenient to use a tool with a wide blade).
4. Sandpaper (zero grade), masking tape.
5. Ladder.
6. Personal protective equipment (goggles, respirator, gown).

Pre-painting required steps

A short excursion to the first facility will help you recognize professional factory painting. It is worth immediately noting that the car goes through all stages disassembled.

Complete cleansing and thorough drying

First, the body is washed from dust and traces of oil using special detergents.

This takes place in a small room with solution sprayers and a rinse bath. Any traces of grease, dirt and oils are carefully removed.

On the conveyor, the body is moved to the next chamber or simply exposed to drying devices. Here, the high temperature removes remaining moisture from all crevices, that is, the body is thoroughly dried.

Treatment with phosphorus salts and cataphoresis against body corrosion

For initial priming and corrosion protection, the car is dipped in a bath of phosphorus salts. The optimal primer is provided by the resulting layer of metal phosphate. Then it is rinsed with clean water and sent on.
