To make the right choice of colors, you should focus on personal perception, because it is you who will be using the product for a long time, and not those around you. In addition, there are no shades on the list that people obviously don’t like.
Carthage
Metallic beige is an excellent alternative to dirty white. Here we can talk about greater practicality on the roads of our country, where dust quickly stains the body even in the best weather. Carthage rightfully ranks high among bright hues when it comes to the average consumer's color choice. Lada Vesta SW in this version looks presentable, but subject to constant water procedures (washing).
Blue is not the most common color on the roads. However, it remains practical for urban environments. Small amounts of settled dust do not spoil the exterior at all. In any parking lot, blues stands out from its darker competitors. Finding a car is often not difficult. The absence of blue does not allow for comparison between shades.

Metallic silver or metallic gray are the best colors.
Not as bright, but dust is not as noticeable as, for example, on black. Lada Vesta Cross is painted in one of ten colors at the factory. 9 of them are the same as the station wagon version, the SW Cross adds an orange one called Mars.
This is what SW Cross looks like in a variety of colors.
1) Mars (Orange - 130) 2) Carnelian (Red 195) 3) Angkor (Brown 246) 4) Carthage (Gray-beige 247) 5) Blues (Dark Blue 492) 6) Phantom (Grey-blue 496) 7 ) Pluto (Grey 608)
Black Pearl (Black 676) 9) Platinum (Silver 691) 10) White (Glacial 221)
The last color is not metallic, so it comes at no extra charge, while all the others cost an extra charge of 12 thousand rubles. For the Carthage color you will have to pay an additional 18,000 rubles.
In October, sales of two new station wagons based on the Vesta sedan began: Vesta SW and Vesta SW Cross. For the regular version there are 9 body colors, for the all-terrain cross version - 10 (exclusive orange color Mars has been added).
In terms of price, most metallic colors cost 12 thousand rubles, but for the gray-beige “Carthage” you need to pay an additional 18 thousand. The only free one is white enamel. See all prices here
Pluto
The most popular are the dark gray ones. Although black is still beyond competition. Pluto reserves the right to a premium look, but at the same time allows you not to get lost among friends. Some problem areas on the car body that have lost their presentability can be quickly restored with the help of simple tools, so the use of Pluto is definitely suitable for most novice motorists.
Black Pearl
Lada Vesta SW of this version looks several classes higher. Sitting behind the wheel, you feel the increased status, but the large logo on the front spoils the impression a little. The black pearl is quite easily soiled in any season. If you maintain impeccable cleanliness, then compared to more premium brands, Lada Vesta SV will seem like a worthy competitor. There is no need to talk about exclusivity: .
↑ Body care rules to maintain fresh color
Lada Vesta Cross (lada vesta cross)
To preserve the original snow-white color for a long time, several rules must be followed: avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, contact with alkaline and petroleum products, remove dirt, promptly identify pockets of corrosion and subject them to treatment.
Important! When washing, it is important not to use hot water, foam rubber or cloth; you must use a hose. Do not 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.
Platinum and phantom
Silver and gold always go shoulder to shoulder. For extraordinary individuals, these options are the only opportunity to match a certain style that is unique only to the owner of the car. It is also worth noting a number of difficulties in selecting the right paint in case of an accident to eliminate its consequences. It is difficult to talk about practicality with prolonged use, but this entirely depends on the driving style.
Angkor
The brown color of the Lada Vesta SW is becoming increasingly popular. The demand is partly determined by the realities of off-road conditions, which can be found even in the middle of the city. Clay is clearly visible in all shades except Angkor. Lovers of country trips are impressed by the opportunity to stay clean for as long as possible. When you arrive at the garage, there is no need to immediately grab the hose and start washing.
Glacial
Exterior colors would be incomplete without white. This is a standard color for all cars, so it's hard to say anything special about it. White color is the most demanding of itself in terms of the realities of our lives. If there are no difficulties with washing, then it is definitely suitable for people who decide to emphasize their love for light.
Good day everyone! I decided to buy an AvtoVAZ product - Lada Vesta SW Cross, color - platinum, engine - 21179 (volume 1.8 liters, 122 hp), manual transmission, did not dare to buy a robot, Prestige equipment.
I made a pre-order for the car. paid a deposit of 5,000 rubles. (the deposit will not be lost in any case, even if I change my mind about buying a car today).
↑ Hidden meaning in the name of the Carthage color on the Lada Vesta
The manufacturer gives names to paints for Vesta, which contain a conceptual principle.
Carthage is a state of the pre-Christian era that stood on the path of Roman conquests in Africa. The Romans made repeated attempts to destroy it and, in the end, achieved their goal, after which they conquered all the lands in the African Mediterranean. This was a breakthrough in their imperial ambitions.
Vesta station wagon, crossover, is also an attempt by AvtoVAZ to break into the category of manufacturers of middle-class cars that are competitive with foreign cars in all respects: technical equipment, design, color. In this way, the manufacturer makes it clear that he will not stop achieving his goal. This breakthrough will not mean stagnation on what has been achieved; the model will continue to improve.
The abbreviation SW (Sport Wagon) stands for sports van. Designed for Russian conditions, it “breaks” the established stereotype regarding this type of car: it is no longer a sedan, but also not a hatchback, and not a station wagon in its pure form. The new body tone creates a charismatic image: strict, smart, aimed at movement.
Attention! Compared to the sedan of the first releases, the Lada Vesta SW, SW CROSS in the Carthage version has positive changes in the internal design, build quality, and additional functions, but the main idea of the model is preserved.
An example is the arrangement of the trunk. With the same volume, it has become much more convenient and functional. It has organizers, hooks, nets, and a two-level floor, which allows you to distribute things with comfort. The trunk lid is now opened with a button on the fifth door.
Rear-seat passengers now have more space thanks to an increase in roof height by 25 mm. There is now a convenient armrest with a hinged lid where you can put coffee. On the back of the front armrest there is a USB port for charging phones and laptops, and heated rear seats in three ranges.
The doors began to open and close more smoothly. A set of antennas on the roof are hidden in a shark fin. The seal on the hood has been improved, the gas tank cap is now blocked from the ignition switch.
The car is equipped with a 1.8 engine with a 5-speed manual transmission made in France. The car listens well to the steering wheel and is stable when cornering. The crossover has a ground clearance of 18 cm, which allows it to overcome off-road conditions. The elastic front suspension prevents the car from swaying.
Equipment
For the SV Cross the Luxe package is offered, for the SV - Lux and Comfort. Depending on the configuration, machines can be equipped with the following functions and systems:
- Electronic stability control with traction control option. This helps when starting on a hill.
- Front and front airbags (four in total).
- Three-stage heating of the front and rear seats.
- The driver's seat is height adjustable and has lumbar support.
- Heated windshield and windshield.

↑ Reviews about the color Carthage
Attention! Car enthusiasts appreciated the noble restraint of the Carthage, although the price of a car in this color is confusing, and preference is given to less expensive paints.
“I saw the Vesta Carthage in the photo and decided that this was the only one I would buy. Should receive it in 2 months. I hope that the color won’t disappoint me in real life.”
“I really like the car’s appearance: the light gray Carthage “sits” on the body like its own skin. Neither subtract nor add. A very practical color. Dirt is practically invisible. Vesta itself is also pleasing: throttle response, accelerates easily, good brakes. Driving at a high angle, you feel like the car lacks power. Otherwise, everything is very good.”
Extra charge for color
The color scheme for a car is one of the important points. After all, it is the color that creates the first impression of the car, determines the character of the car: whether the car will stand out “among the crowd” with its bright color or maintain its severity in black and white colors.

Long before the release of the Lada Vesta, AvtoVAZ engineers and designers posted a survey on the official website, where each user was asked to evaluate one or another color version for the Vesta. Based on user data, AvtoVAZ initially put forward 12 color options, but ultimately, for the release of the car, Vesta has 9 color options, including the very interesting “Lime” color, which is only available as a complete set.
A two-tone color option is also in development, which will be called . As you can see, the high demand for two-tone cars made the factory workers think twice. Vesta Black Edition is a car designed to stand out among other cars: a black roof, a black spoiler with glossy black side mirrors and unique rims will undoubtedly add brightness. As for the interior, innovations are also expected here in the form of brown inserts in the panel, doors and seats. The standard Vesta looks very good from the inside, and the interior of the Vesta Black Edition looks much more solid and interesting. The Black Edition “package” will be available in any configuration, unlike the “Lime” color, but its cost is still being determined. The “two-tone” package will probably be Boo’s last creation.
You can purchase a new Lada Vesta only from an official dealer. Your city probably already has such a representative. Prices for Vesta start from 514 thousand rubles. for the complete set. Unfortunately, Boo says goodbye to AvtoVAZ, where a lot of effort, energy and finances were invested to achieve a positive result. But according to VAZ shareholders, the result is not at all positive.
The body color shades in which the Lada Vesta goes on sale are constantly updated. Their number in the future may reach twenty or more. Most body colors have a metallic effect, and this is an innovation and discovery for the Russian automobile industry. But besides this, Lada Vesta has many surprises in its painting and can surprise even completely skeptical people.
Currently, a new painting technology is used for Lada Vesta, using cataphoresis, which significantly strengthens the coating and therefore Lada Vesta is guaranteed to be protected from corrosion for six years from the date of purchase. This is an absolute innovation for AvtoVAZ, which deserves the status of a minor sensation.
Lada Vesta has only two body colors that do not fall under the “metallic” category. Three colors are the same as previous models, while the rest are new. Such a categorical change in the color scheme in the new model indicates a change in AvtoVAZ’s policy with the arrival of a new manager.
↑ Lada Vesta color palette
The range of Vesta colors has been replenished with two shades: Carthage and Mars. Mars is a bright orange tone. This color can be ordered for one modification of Vesta: Lada Vesta SV CROSS. The Lada Vesta SW station wagon and the Lada Vesta SW CROSS SUV are produced in Carthage coloring.
Other Vesta body shades:
Traditional colors are white, black, silver (glacial, black pearl, platinum). Shades of gray - Pluto and Carthage. Orange-red bodies – carnelian and mars. Dark chocolate shade - Angkor.
Green tones are krypton and lime. Dark blue is blues, light blue and orange are phantom, silver is platinum.

The color white, renamed glacial, creates an association of pure arctic whiteness.
The black mother-of-pearl body is a hint of an expensive, sophisticated item.
Carnelian is red with an orange tint. The mineral, after which the enamel paint is named, has been revered since ancient times as a stone with magical properties. These same qualities, according to the manufacturer, should be transferred to the car. Its owner will feel more confident in the general traffic flow.
Mars is the god of war and aggression. The latest development of AvtoVAZ, the Lada SV CROSS in this color carries a charge of energy that is not found in other modifications.

Video - Which color of LADA Vesta SW cross to choose
Lada Vesta Phantom has a dark gray main color. In low light or twilight conditions, it looks monochromatic. But when the chameleon coating is exposed to a brighter light source, it begins to change from dark brown to orange. This effect is very good to observe when changing the viewing angle. Another useful property of this paint is that dust and dirt are not visible on it.
Numerous photos of phantom-colored bodywork and videos posted on Internet portals will help you decide on the choice of color. Also on websites about cars you can find reviews of the phantom color from real owners of Lada Vesta, who talk in their blogs about the features of this color, car care and other interesting facts.
The main disadvantage of such a unique coating is the difficult selection of paint during body repairs. If the car gets damaged or scratched, restoring the original coating will be very expensive. In addition, when purchasing a new Lada Vesta Phantom from an official dealer, you will need to pay an additional 12 thousand rubles to the main cost. This is how much it costs to paint the body in a metallic color.
A metallic shade of grey, but darker than the usual tone. Glistens well under the sun's rays. Makes the car visually more expensive. Pros. A stylish shade that is not so often found on the roads. Small dirt does not stand out much on the body, metallic adds shine. Cons. This kind of paint is not always easy to find; it is not a popular shade. Additional payment - 12000 rub.
Reviews
Sergey: “I took a car of this tone - I’m completely satisfied. The appearance is very stylish, perfect for a business person.”
Evgeniy: “It’s not so difficult to choose paint, but it is advisable to look on the Internet, since it costs a lot of money in stores. Generally speaking, this shade of gray is very suitable for the Lada Vesta.”
Victoria: “I spent a long time choosing between pluto and just gray, but I decided to choose pluto. I have absolutely no regrets, I think that a lighter car would have gotten more dirty.”
Black cars are the most common on the roads. In the AVTOVAZ palette this tone is called “Black Pearl”. Looks solid on the road, suitable for any driver. Due to the high quality of the coating, you don’t have to worry about corrosion for 6 years or more. Pros. A classic that suits everyone. There will be no problems with the sale if necessary. Finding paint will not be difficult. Cons. Even the smallest damages and scratches are very visible on black; maximum care must be taken to make the car look like new.
Reviews
Kirill: “I have a black car, and as for me, this is the best option, especially for men. Looks solid."
Nikolai: “You constantly need to wash your car. Driving in the rain - welcome to the car wash. “Besides, the branches scratch a lot, my car is three months old and there are already several scratches on the body.”
Valery: “I like a black car, I’m now choosing what color to take the car, and I’m leaning towards this option.”
A shade of blue that is darker than some manufacturers choose may appear black from a distance. The coating is suitable for those who prefer dark cars. Pros. It shines pleasantly in the sun, the color is deep and non-standard. Cons. A car of this color quickly heats up in the sun. Even minor scratches and damage stand out.
Reviews
Tamara: “I bought my son a blue-colored car - in the first six months the car lost its appearance, because the slightest branch leaves a scratch. It’s time to paint the body, although the car is not even a year old.”
Mark: “Solid beautiful color. It fits perfectly for this car. Calm, not conspicuous, and at the same time stands out for its originality.”
Timur: “I took the car in the spring – it’s cool, it looks good. But when summer came, I realized that the car should only be kept in the shade, because otherwise it would just be hot in the cabin.”
This is another shade of gray, which the manufacturer made not very dark and non-staining. In the sun, such a car shimmers and shines; in cloudy weather it pleases the eye with its original shade. Pros of the Lada Vesta silver color. High-quality coating, not damaged by branches. Scratches are not noticeable on the body, do not attract sunlight, thereby reducing the likelihood of engine overheating even in hot weather. Cons. High surcharge of 18 thousand per color. Finding suitable paint is difficult.
↑ Painting technology
The technological process of painting a body includes two main stages: priming and painting.
Important! Phosphate priming of metal products is good protection against corrosion.
Phosphoric acid forms salts with iron and zinc, which is used in phosphating surfaces.
Phosphates do not combine with oxygen, so they are not destroyed under the influence of water, atmospheric air and aggressive environments, and can withstand temperature changes from -75 to 500 degrees.
Priming includes several stages:
At the first stage, the surface is cleaned of traces of corrosion, degreased, washed and dried. For this purpose, sandblasting machines, pickling, washing and drying chambers are used.
The process of applying primer is carried out using the electrochemical method in a galvanic bath. Metal parts of the body are anodes due to the supply of a negative charge to them from a direct or alternating current source. The primer solution has a positive charge. Phosphate cations are deposited on the metal, forming an ionic compound. The process takes up to 20 minutes, forming a film up to 20 microns thick. At the next stage, the primed products are washed and dried and sent for painting.

↑ Painting features
As autobloggers and ordinary Lada Vesta owners tirelessly repeat in numerous reviews, AvtoVAZ masters have achieved significant success in developing the composition of auto enamel and inventing new colors. This fully applies to painting technology: cars “dressed” in silver, red carnelian, brown angkor or grayish shades have become more resistant to external influences (dust, dirt, moisture), and are simply much more representative and respectable than the usual “Lada” "
It is no coincidence that the plant includes in its list of warranty obligations a 6-year warranty for through body corrosion, namely, a high-quality paint coating protects against it.
The details of the technology itself, which is the author's development, are kept secret; it is only known that the basis of the enamel is an epoxy composition, which creates a high-quality and evenly distributed layer that successfully competes in strength with standard galvanizing.
