Engine Lada Vesta Classic

Vehicle interior

Tolyatti Concert, which honestly and conscientiously assembles its product, teaches us to see reliability and attractive design in its cars. The basic version of the sedan went on sale, having good equipment and balance. It follows that the Lada Vesta Classic equipment can compete for ratings and have greater demand than more expensive modifications.

On a note!
When releasing new versions of its product, the manufacturer introduces some small changes that will create the appearance of a pleasant and necessary option. The Lada Vesta Classic Start configuration differs from the simplest and cheapest modification by the presence of air conditioning in the cabin, rather than a heater.

Engine compartment

The engine cover is missing to keep the price down. It is now installed only in luxury trim levels. Its price is not so high; if necessary, you can buy it separately to add aesthetics to the engine compartment.

What I like about the Lada Vesta is that the engine compartment does not look cramped and cramped, as in most modern cars. There is a good layout that provides easy access to all the necessary components and assemblies. For example, if necessary, it is easy to change the bulbs in the headlights. You don't have to remove anything to replace them.

The engine has an index 21129, volume 1.6 liters, 16 valves, power 106 hp. s., torque 148 N*m. It is paired with a VAZ 5-speed gearbox with index 2180. In my opinion, this engine is currently the best in the line of power units used on Lada cars.

He is truly reliable, no matter what anyone says. The engine was freed from all the problems that were characteristic of it in its early years. The engine is technically simple and inexpensive to maintain. If handled properly, it has a good resource. On average, he takes care of 200-250 thousand before major repairs without problems.

When it comes to repairs, there will be no problem boring out the cast-iron block, installing a new piston and moving on. That is, this engine is not one of those disposable ones that most modern cars are now stuffed with. In terms of power, it is quite enough, fuel consumption is also good. If you adhere to a moderate driving style, you can achieve 7.5-8.0 liters per 100 km in the combined cycle.

All trim levels come standard with BOSCH ABS. The latest generation software, version 9.1, is used.

In the engine compartment it is difficult to find something with the inscription “made in Russia”. Imported attachments: Valeo starter, BOSCH generator, Korean air conditioning compressor. Only the cylinder head and cylinder block are domestic in the engine compartment, the rest is imported. Is it good or bad - write in the comments.

Front end

The main difference from richer trim levels is only the absence of fog lights. But if you have the desire and financial capabilities, they can be installed at any time. The asking price will be quite reasonable. At the dealer, this service will cost an average of 13 thousand rubles. This is the price for the necessary components and installation work.

The radiator grille is not painted, matte in color. In luxury versions it is painted glossy and looks very beautiful. Block headlights provide good visibility at night and look nice. But the incandescent lamps used in them are already a thing of the past. Many competitors are starting to offer diode headlights in basic configurations, which look cooler and shine brighter.

I sincerely hope that the restyled Vesta will have LED optics. Black washer jets on a white hood look somewhat alien. But during the restyling they were promised to be moved to the windshield frame trim so that the hood would look holistic and neat.

Windshield wiper blades are now installed on all Vesta frameless ones, their length has remained unchanged. The driver's side is 600 mm, the passenger's side is 450 mm. There are no reviews on them yet, but they should freeze up less in winter and provide better windshield wiping quality. A standard active antenna is installed in the front part of the car roof.

↑ Lux Multimedia

The additional “Multimedia” package is no different from what is included in the “Comfort” package. The cost of Lada Vesta when adding this package increases by 24 thousand rubles. The most expensive equipment will cost the buyer more than 700 thousand rubles.

AvtoVAZ has released the new Lada Vesta 2022, an exclusive “anniversary” Lux series, which has a two-tone body paint, a leather steering wheel, designer alloy wheels, original upholstery, and metal pedals. You could purchase such a model for 735 thousand rubles.

Almost all Lada Vesta cars are purchased from official dealers. They cooperate with AvtoVAZ, so they have a warranty limited to 3 months or 100 thousand kilometers.

Chassis

Car wheels: 15-inch steel wheels covered with original hubcaps. The tires used are high-quality Pirelli model Cinturato P1, size 185x65 R15. The fact that the wheel is small is even a plus, since it is lighter and has a higher sidewall. Accordingly, there is more air in it, the car rides smoother. Although the suspension works great with 17 discs.

Plastic fender liners are installed in the front wheel arches. They do not cover all the metal. Mud flaps for the front wheels are installed as standard, and soft felt fender liners are installed in the rear arches, which cover the metal everywhere. Rear wheel mudguards are not provided here.

The ground clearance of a regular Vesta is 178 mm. I believe that this is the most optimal ground clearance for a car in Russia. The car is neither high nor low. I drove the Vesta on different roads and went off-road. There was not a single case where I caught the bottom somewhere. For comparison, Vesta Cross has a ground clearance of 203 mm, a regular Granta has 160 mm, and a Niva has 220 mm.
