New Lada Vesta SW 2022: photo and price, station wagon characteristics

Today, there are various wheels for Lada Vesta on the market. The main differences between them are the materials from which they are made, methods of manufacture and fastening, and sizes. To choose the right components for your car, you should know their standard sizes, presented in the table below.

T – permissible speed index within 190 km/h;

N – permissible speed index within 210 km/h;

88 – load capacity index from 88 to 560 kg, 91 – from 91 to 615 kg;

ET – rim offset, indicating the distance from the mating surface of the disk to the middle of its rim;

partial load – the presence of three adults in the cabin, without cargo in the trunk;

full load - the presence of more than three adults in the cabin, or the presence of three adults in the cabin and luggage weighing 50 kg or more (depending on the capacity of the luggage compartment).

The wheel is secured to the car hub using four bolts through the holes on the disk. It has four holes centered on a diameter of 100 mm.

Stamped discs

The simplest and cheapest option is stamped steel wheels for the Lada Vesta. They are made by stamping with a mold. External differences in parts depend on the characteristics of the stamp; in accordance with its shape, the product takes on its final appearance. The main advantage of stamping is strength and resistance to external influences: abrasions, impacts, scratches.

R15 steel wheels are provided by the manufacturer when purchasing a car as standard. Recommended tire sizes are 175/70 R15. You can purchase stampings in many service centers and stores by pre-ordering them on the store’s website, where photographs and prices are presented. The retail price in Moscow starts at 1,300 rubles per piece and can reach 2,500 rubles.

When purchasing disks, you should first check whether fasteners are included in the purchase price. Sometimes fasteners need to be purchased separately.

Alloy wheels

Popular alloy wheels on the Lada Vesta are distinguished by a wide selection of designs and diameters. They are made from a special alloy. In addition to the base metal aluminum, the alloy contains magnesium, strontium and titanium additives. The casting process occurs under high pressure, which promotes rapid hardening of the workpiece. Using computer modeling and milling, the part receives its final shape.

Alloy wheels

The multi-level manufacturing process of alloy wheels explains their high cost. They are lighter in weight, but have less resistance to mechanical damage.

Lada Vesta casting is presented by the manufacturer in two versions:

• r15 rollers are recommended for tires with dimensions 175/70 R15 and 205/60 R15;
• R16 wheels are suitable for tires with dimensions 185/60 R

Alloy wheels 15 radius on the Lada Vesta are provided when purchasing a car in the “luxury” configuration. For an additional fee, alloy wheels 16 radius can be installed as additional equipment on the Lada Vesta.

A car wheel is a necessary part, which, in symbiosis with a tire, is a device that converts external energy into useful work for moving the vehicle. Each car owner should have basic information about this element and know which of them are rationally suitable for the purchased Lada Vesta. Below you will see photographs of the domestic novelty on different wheels. Wheels on Lada Vesta are divided into two types:

• The first type includes cast wheels, which are manufactured by casting into a mold of a certain diameter. The materials for creation are often: aluminum, magnesium, and also, in rare cases, titanium alloys. After the casting process, a heat treatment session is necessary. The final appearance of the discs is obtained after mechanical cleaning and the painting process. The cost of such parts is the most optimal.
• Stamped discs represent the second type. They are made from steel sheets of ST-3 format. The two halves with holes are welded and become whole. Straightened using a sledgehammer or on a specialized machine. Such a part has a lot of weight, but easily gives in to resistance and pressure. The main disadvantages will be susceptibility to corrosion and poor balancing, which can lead to unpleasant consequences when driving at high speed.

Disc diameter for Lada Vesta
In the Russian Federation, the production of wheel parts is carried out by aluminum plants in Krasnoyarsk and Sayanogorsk, as well as the largest titanium processing concern, which bears the abbreviation VSMPO. The first place in quality is occupied by Germany, Italy and the USA.

What does the size of tires and wheels affect?

Increasing the size of tires and wheels will affect the operation of the Lada Vesta as follows:

• Increasing the disc diameter has a positive effect on the quality of steering and road holding, but reduces the level of comfort on uneven roads.
• Increasing the width of the rim will also improve steering and road holding, but will increase fuel consumption.
• Increasing the tire width will also have a better effect on handling, including on uneven roads and will improve traction (in dry weather). At the same time, gasoline consumption and tire wear will increase, and resistance to aquaplaning will suffer. The noise level will increase.

How to choose wheels for a VAZ Vesta ? To clarify all the choices, you need to understand how a car wheel works, study the existing types of disks, their pros and cons.

For those who haven’t read the first series, here it is: White and Black. Drom bought two Lada Vestas for an independent test drive in full

Good day everyone!

Yesterday, Thursday, we picked up our second Vesta from the salon - white! Why couldn't you do this right away? It's simple: on the 25th, the presentation of the car continued at the Lada Tekhinkom MKAD dealership 47 km, where we made the long-awaited purchase. But in addition, the finish line of a certain autoquest with the participation of West and another competitive event was scheduled there. It’s not just that during Vesta Night we were given the keys to our car by no less than Steve Mattin himself, the chief designer of AvtoVAZ and the author of Vesta’s appearance! And we didn’t even know in advance that Steve would be at the presentation at “our” dealership...

As a result, because of all these celebrations, the dealer was only able to actually start processing the car we purchased and prepare it for pre-sale only on Thursday.

The manager called before lunch. But we were able to drive up only after it was over (Moscow traffic jams can turn any trip around the city into a real journey, with a corresponding investment of time). Our white Vesta was already waiting in the delivery area. And - surprise! — it turned out not on the expected “stamping” with 15-inch wheels, but on the fashionable 16-inch casting. It’s good that we didn’t order winter tires in advance...

But the question arose of where to buy one. I didn’t want to take anything. But still, the dealer found a suitable option: winter friction tires Bridgestone Blizzak VRX, which we already tested last winter at Rapid. Their cost, of course, turned out to be slightly higher than in online stores. But there you still have to find the necessary tires and wait either for delivery or for the opportunity to pick them up. Moscow, of course, is not Siberia, but there weren’t any of us who liked to drive even for a day or two on summer tires at the end of November, so we decided to change our shoes on the spot.

By the way, a set of summer tires, and they turned out to be Matador Elite3, which have a fairly good rating according to reviews in our tire catalog, were able to fit in full in the trunk of Vesta. Not perfect, not without witchcraft with the layout of the installation, but they did it.

We also immediately purchased rugs - although they are an additional option, they are useful.

As a result, the cost of retrofitting the car amounted to 29,800 rubles. (tires, tire mounting and mats).

OSAGO insurance cost another almost 18 thousand. And this figure came as a slight shock. Yes, we took out a policy without restrictions on the number of drivers, and even with the Moscow territorial coefficient and without discounts for accident-free behavior (the car is new!). But last year, for the same price, it was possible to find a comprehensive insurance policy for a thrifty driver for a car of the same level. But since spring, as you know, compulsory motor liability insurance has become more expensive. And now we know for sure that significantly...

We left the dealer's salon in the evening, when it got dark. As in Krasnoyarsk, we were introduced to a personal manager (an employee of the car plant), who promised to answer questions about the car 24 hours a day. It’s only a pity that the previously promised five-year warranty for Vesta “did not work”: as our manager explained, the Renault Nissan alliance, which, as you know, owns the majority of AvtoVAZ shares, did not allow such a guarantee as being contrary to the alliance’s unified warranty policy. It's a pity. But now it’s definitely clear that foreign countries don’t care about us, and business is business...

By the way, in “our” DC we were the first to pick up our Vesta: all the other 15 cars from the first batch that arrived at the dealer were seen in full force in front of the car dealership, in the showroom and at the warehouse site. When we left, the odometer showed just over twenty kilometers. But now he is, of course, more...

Actually, that's all for now. At the time of publication of this post, we hope that we will be able to issue a comprehensive insurance policy (so far the prices for it are also not encouraging: in Moscow, even with restrictions on age and minimum experience of drivers, the cost of a policy without a franchise for our Vesta is about 70 thousand rubles). And I was able to sign up for car registration only on Sunday (what can I do: there is apparently a crisis outside, cars are being bought in batches, and there are queues at the traffic police because of this).

Weight matters

A car disk is a simple flywheel mounted on a hub. To set it in motion, you need to expend a certain amount of energy, the source of which is fuel. And the greater the mass of the wheel, the more fuel will be required to spin it. But it is much more difficult to stop the wheel when its rotation speed is very high. At that moment, a very large load is placed on the braking system. Therefore, not only the comfort and controllability of the car, but also the safety of passengers in the cabin depends on the quality of the disc and the materials used to make it.

Comfort package

The mid-spec Lada Vesta has two airbags, a climate control system, air conditioning, ABS + ESC, heated glass and seats, as well as a double-din stereo system that has 4 speakers and 2 sets of power windows. The interior is textile; for comparison, the Luxury equipment includes leather upholstery.

The trunk is quite roomy, the trunk volume is 480 liters, has a low loading height, and is equipped with a spare wheel.

Let's summarize all of the above

• If you do not drive at very high speeds, are limited in money and the roads in your city are not of very high quality, feel free to purchase steel wheels for the VAZ Vesta (but together with decorative caps).
• If the “appearance” of a car is of paramount importance to you and high-speed driving is not alien to you, then it is best to purchase alloy wheels. But you must be prepared for the fact that they may burst - then you will need to buy new ones, because alloy wheels cannot be repaired.
• If you are a fan of sporty driving and high speeds, then only forged wheels on the VAZ Vesta will be the optimal solution for you. Their unique properties will allow them to be used for a very long time even under intense loads, because it is almost impossible to disable them. But the very high price of such wheels is the only drawback that prevents everyone from buying them.

Thanks to this service, you can quickly and easily purchase wheels that are optimal in price/quality/appearance for your car. This will allow it to become more functional, reliable and attractive!

Lada Vesta is a new version of the class B subcompact car, production of which began 3 years ago. Domestic, French and Japanese specialists took part in its development. Car enthusiasts are offered 4 modifications: the Vesta Cross sedan, the Vesta SV station wagon, the Vesta SV Cross SUV and the Vesta SNZh dual-fuel vehicle. They can be purchased in 3 trim levels: Lada Vesta Classic, Comfort, Luxe. The color palette of the body is varied, which allows you to choose a car to suit every taste.

Balancing as a necessary condition for safety

This procedure, carried out successfully, is intended to guarantee elimination of the multifunction steering wheel wobbling while driving at high speed and the subsequent crash of the car. In addition to the steering wheel, shock absorbers and other elements of the chassis will consistently fail.

The balancing procedure is necessary at least once a year. It is required when changing tires. The main reason for wheel wobble is wear of the rubber and subsequent deformation of the casting. To perform the operation, contact a tire service.

↑ All colors of Lada Vesta

The names of the body colors have a poetic connotation, which fuels buyers’ interest in the model.

Carnelian is a transparent stone from burgundy to pink. The car's carnelian paint job is a metallic red-pink color.

Angkor means Vesta's chocolate shade.

Metallic blue or blues. The rich color, close to cornflower blue, resembles a sea wave when reflected from the sun.

The intriguing name of the phantom car color matches its meaning. In dim lighting, the car has a dark gray color; in brighter light, it can change to dark brown and orange. This effect is achieved through the “chameleon” coating.

The krypton-colored body is a noble dark green metallic color, without the frivolous light green, flashy bright green shade.

A black car, the shade of which is called black pearl, is nobility and restraint.

“Mars” or “Pluto”: colors of LADA Vesta

For the domestic automaker, Vesta became a real breakthrough and a sensation for Russian drivers.

Yes, initially it had quite a lot of problems, but the constant work of specialists made it possible to quickly get rid of them. Today Vesta is gaining enormous popularity not only in Russia, but also far beyond its borders. And in addition to the unique design, equipping the machine with modern systems and the use of technology, the manufacturer offered consumers a large selection of colors

However, it is important to remember that colors may differ slightly in real life, so do not blindly believe photos online

↑ White Lada Vesta advantages and disadvantages

Lada Vesta white is the most popular model in Russia and abroad. The glacial color in combination with black contours and body parts, tinted windows, and bright red rear lights gives the car an elegant and sophisticated style.

White color is one of the cheapest in the car color scheme. Other advantages create a preference for this shade:

The peculiarity of a snow-white car on the road is its neutrality. It does not irritate the eyes and does not distract attention.

On a white body, traces of corrosion are more noticeable, which can be attributed to both disadvantages and advantages: it is cheaper and faster to deal with damage to the paintwork at the initial stage.

Lada Vesta is considered the most beautiful in the AvtoVAZ model range; the glacial version of the car has deserved increased attention.

While maintaining recognizable details, such as x-stamping and the shape of the headlights, the model has a strong individual design. Positive reviews were earned by the smoothness of closing and opening doors, stability and maneuverability on any road, spacious interior, trunk and glove compartment.

Main technical characteristics of Lada Vesta:

• front-wheel drive;
• engine capacity 1.6 l or 1.8 l;
• 5-speed manual or robotic transmission;
• average maximum speed 180 km/h;
• maximum technical load 1.7 t;
• tank volume 55 l;
• acceleration time from 0 to 100 km 11-14 seconds;
• gasoline consumption is 6-8 liters per 100 km.

According to reviews from car owners, the disadvantages of the Lada Vesta are associated with such shortcomings as poor-quality gluing of plastic on the doors, rattling of the front mirror, inconvenient design of the cover in the engine compartment, lack of floor mats and fender liner protection. Complaints include the operation of the on-board computer, the multimedia system, the poorly thought-out design of the rear mudguards, the lack of smoothness in the robot's switching, and increased engine oil consumption.

Combination of Lada Vesta body palette and wheel elements

Today, they very often decorate a car by combining contrasts and different shades in design. The manufacturer met aesthetic lovers halfway and began producing castings in a variety of colors.

To make the wheels on a white Lada Vesta look good, it is recommended to buy wheels in a contrasting black tone. This interesting solution makes it easy to separate the chassis from the body itself. The rims for a black Lada Vesta should be white as a priority, which will make your vehicle stand out brightly and stylishly from the huge number of cars on the highway and in the city.

↑ Painting features

The application technology and increased thickness of the paint coating by 25% allow the manufacturer to guarantee 6 years of corrosion-free driving.

The partially galvanized metal frame undergoes sandblasting and degreasing at the first stage.

Sequence of body painting operations:

• in a closed chamber, a layer of primer is applied by automatic spraying;
• drying in a drying chamber;
• application of enamel coating;
• drying;
• surface varnishing;
• control examination;
• manual correction of defects.

After this, the finished body enters the assembly line.

↑ Body care rules to maintain fresh color

To preserve the original snow-white color for a long time, several rules must be followed: avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, exposure to alkali and petroleum products, remove dirt, promptly identify pockets of corrosion and treat them.

Important! When washing, it is important not to use hot water, foam rubber or cloth; you must use a hose. You cannot wash your car in the cold, in the sun, or leave it to dry without wiping it dry.

Scratches and cracks are treated with anti-rust chemicals, then primed and painted over.

To restore the paintwork, polish is applied to the surface of the body once a month. The desired temperature is about 20 degrees.

Lada Vesta SV Cross dark blue blues – description

Those who have already seen a car in Blues color compare it to deep water, a pre-storm sky. It is as calm and peaceful as a pleasant, light blues.

For Lada Vesta Cross, the blues color is a middle ground between dark and light, it looks simple and hides thousands of shades. With each degree of illumination its features change. When creating the image of the Lada Vesta St Cross Blues, new enamels were used, as well as a specialized primer. It allows you to reliably protect your car from the adhesion of paints and metals. New paintwork will last a long time. The manufacturer guarantees it for six years; with the help of new technology, it was possible to make corrosion and rust a rare occurrence. The average paint thickness now reaches 135 microns, which is four times more than in previous versions. The coating has become more stable, thicker, and external influences no longer have the same impact as before.

Lada Vesta SV cross blue blues – pros and cons

Like all dark colors, Blues is very difficult to care for; it requires more frequent visits to the car wash than a silver or gray car. Separately, the manufacturer says that to wash the Lada Vesta Cross Blues, it is advisable to use high-quality chemicals and a contactless wash, since washing the car by hand can lead to micro-scratches.

This is perhaps the only drawback of this shade. As for the selection of paint and the painting procedure itself, the price for these services will be standard. The original color, which is distinguished by its depth, looks great, although it is called neutral.
