VAZ 2114 luxury - equipment, luxury door cards, luxury trim

Global automakers are always trying to invent something new. So the domestic automaker decided to keep up and release a car that will appeal to many car enthusiasts - the VAZ 2114 Lux.

A small feature of the model is its durability and ease of use: repairs do not require additional knowledge or large investments. All parts and spare parts are inexpensive. The first models were released back in 2008. It was this period that became a kind of breakthrough for the domestic automaker. Many experts even said that the 2114 model is a super car that keeps up with the times.

What is included in the package of the Luxury VAZ 2114?

VAZ 2114 Lux is an improved version of the “four”. It has additional options and is considered more comfortable. The interior of the VAZ 2114 Lux is trimmed with artificial leather with the addition of velor elements. The rear seat has head restraints. There are also ashtrays for passengers in the rear. The backlight has a function for adjusting the brightness of the light. The seats are equipped with inertial seat belts.

The Luxury VAZ 2114 package contains:

• Dashboard with a clock and temperature indicator, as well as other data indicators;
• Adjustment of instrument lighting;
• On-board computer;
• Heated front seats;
• Heated rear window;
• Electric windows for front windows;
• Athermal glass;
• Anti-glare side mirrors;
• Fog lights;
• Immobilizer.

The regular configuration does not have these options. Also in the luxury version the ventilation system has been improved. The dashboard has received additional functionality. It is made from higher quality materials. Therefore, the tidy of the luxury VAZ 2114 does not creak while driving.

The car comes with a full-size spare wheel, which is not available in the regular version. Improvements to the heating system made the interior warmer. But at the same time the noise level of the heater increased. Therefore, such powerful equipment causes complaints from some owners.

The presence of adjustable lighting for the instrument panel and interior lamp made driving in the dark more comfortable. This is also facilitated by the PTFs installed at the factory.

The answer to the question of how the VAZ 2114 Lux differs from the Standard is also the presence of door locks and an immobilizer. According to the manufacturer, this should increase the safety of the vehicle. But often, especially on used cars, these functions cause additional electrical problems. Sometimes they require an immediate solution. The same applies to electric windows, since the electrical equipment of this car turned out to be far from perfect. Perhaps it's poor design or build quality. But the VAZ 2114 is a budget car. Therefore, such problems are excusable for him. Fog lamps, anti-glare mirrors, and inertia belts are designed to increase vehicle safety. These decisions turned out to be successful and timely. And the advent of an on-board computer has made it much more convenient to independently diagnose and repair a car. After all, many errors are now easy to detect even without a special scanner. And all the codes are available on the Internet. But, despite the improvements, the car, according to many owners, lacks such modern functions as:

• Airbags;
• Anti-lock braking system;
• Power steering;
• Air conditioning or climate control;
• Factory audio preparation;
• Standard audio system.

The lack of audio training especially often irritates owners. To install music in a VAZ 2114, you have to install wires yourself, cut out seats for the speakers and carry out other related work. The car allows you to install only a simple 1din radio and speakers without significant effort and expense. Installation of more complex acoustic devices requires significant modification of the machine. And a weak generator may not be able to pull it at all. Also, some motorists complain about the fragile plastic trim on the sills. It cracks in the cold. Therefore, you have to either put up with the shortcomings or modify the finishing yourself.

The VAZ 2114 in the Lux version has become much more comfortable and safer. Therefore, the version is popular among fans of this model. And the convenient dimensions and excellent dynamic performance of this car sometimes allow you to turn a blind eye to a rather outdated design. VAZ 2114 is a good car for tuning. You can change the technical characteristics or appearance, and repairs are simple and cheap. Spare parts are inexpensive and are sold in every auto store. You can repair the “four” yourself without any special technical knowledge or professional equipment.

Lowriders movement

The Low Rider movement originated 60 years ago in the USA.
In Russia, it has only now become relevant for car enthusiasts, and is especially popular among young people. “Low Riding” is a lowering of the car’s suspension; the lower the car “lies”, the better. "Lada 2114" was no exception in this style. After shortening the suspension spring, the car becomes more stable. The appearance of the car is not for everybody; many criticize the style of lowered cars.

Also newfangled was the installation of air suspension on the fourteenth family. The advantage of this suspension is that the ground clearance can be adjusted. The cost of air suspension reaches 100,000 rubles.

As a rule, only original and branded wheels are installed on the car, or even left on standard wheels. Thousands of drivers spend a lot of money on modifying the “fourteenth”. In the photo, the Lada 2114 is presented in a lowered version.

Description of appearance

The company's constructors and designers used new ideas and forms that allowed the model to stand out from the crowd. At first glance at the photo, you will notice the headlights, made in the form of narrow rectangles. This allows you not only to save space, but also to give the Lada 2114 an aggressive look. The company's engineers decided to use simple headlights, without modern LED technology. Of course, because of this, the radius and quality of the glow deteriorate slightly, but not critically.

Between the headlights there is a small radiator grille. This is due to the fact that the power unit does not require a large air flow for cooling. It is in this place that the handle for opening the hood is located, which is quite practical. This solution was invented quite a long time ago, but has only now been implemented. As for the bumper of the Lada 2114 car itself, everything is simple and monotonous.

The automaker's designers used simple plastic and special material to increase the service life of parts. A small feature worth mentioning is an interesting solution taken by the engineers. They raised the bumper slightly relative to the ground. This allows the car to move without problems not only on the city highway, but also on country roads.

On the side of the model there are rear-view mirrors made in the shape of rectangles. This solution allows the driver to monitor everything that is happening behind. The doors of the Lada 2114 car, which are equipped with a special opening mechanism, deserve special attention. This allows you to avoid discomfort when boarding and disembarking passengers.

The company's designers stated that the door opening angle is almost 90°. Not every car is capable of providing this kind of comfort for passengers and driver. Wheel rims are made using casting. This technology makes it possible to obtain very light and durable parts that last for many years.

The rear part of the Lada 2114 car is made using new ideas and solutions. In the photo you can see modified headlights that combine three signals: stop, reverse and turn. This solution is very practical and interesting, and also saves a little space. This kind of technology is used by almost all automakers.

A small feature of the Lada 2114 model is the spoiler, which allows you to increase road grip and dynamic characteristics of the car. The basic vehicle kit already includes the mentioned part. This means that even at a minimal cost, the client will receive additional dynamics and traction of the car with the road.

Some Lada 2114 drivers may encounter a problem during a shopping trip: the tailgate is not equipped with a special hand ledge. This can cause your fingers to get dirty if the door is dirty. If we talk about dimensions, the Lada 2114 is not very big. The length is about 4 m, but the width is 1.5 m. Despite all this, passengers and the driver will be quite comfortable during a long journey.

Technical characteristics and features of Lada 2114

There is nothing new in technical terms. The designers and engineers decided to use a fairly powerful 1.6 liter engine, which is standard. This kind of unit is capable of producing about 80 liters. With. This will allow you not to get lost in the city traffic and enjoy the movement. Only gasoline should be used as standard fuel.

It is this that helps give additional power and dynamic characteristics to the vehicle. The designers did not invent anything about the location of the cylinders. They just lined them up. This is due to the fact that currently almost all automakers use this technology; it has proven itself to be the best.

The transmission and suspension of the Lada 2114 Luxury car were developed exclusively by Russian engineers. The basic model will be equipped with a 5-speed manual gearbox. The box works quite smoothly and without delays. All gears are changed very easily, no additional effort is required.

Suspension for VAZ 2114

The suspension is made using a combination of springs, this allows for increased maneuverability and smoothness. The suspension system “eats up” almost all unevenness and potholes. Passengers will not feel any kind of discomfort and jolts while driving. Don’t forget that the car’s ground clearance is quite good, about 15 cm. This will be enough to easily drive over uneven surfaces and find a parking space.

The brake system is made using new pads. This increases passenger safety and reduces braking distances. The basic package will include two types of brake discs: ventilated and non-ventilated. This kind of combination is used not only in 2114 super cars, but also in other models. This allows for very good results during tests and daily driving.

The VAZ 2114 Lux configuration is a rather practical and unusual car with a full range of functions. Here you can see climate control, a seat with many adjustments, a steering wheel with the ability to maneuver both in reach and in the vertical plane, a dashboard with a tachometer and speedometer, a center console with many buttons, an anti-lock braking system and much more.

It is worth noting that the 2114 is not equipped with airbags. This increases the likelihood of passengers being injured in the event of an accident. Of course, if you drive carefully and follow the traffic rules, nothing will happen.

The Lada 2114 is a super car, which turned out to be quite practical and interesting. Of course, there will always be those who will write both good and bad reviews about the model in question. As for the price, it varies within 200,000 rubles. It's not very much. The car is unpretentious during operation; you do not need to spend large sums to repair it.

Cooperation with Super-Auto

Every domestic car enthusiast would like to buy a Russian car with modifications to some of the car’s parts. provided such an opportunity in 2011. The Lada 2114 engine is not just improved or modified, but a new one - from Priora. The car's suspension was also replaced: struts, drums and brakes. The front seats in the cabin have been replaced. Thanks to the “Prior” struts, the car’s ground clearance has increased by 5 mm. At the time of the car's release, the cost was 310,000 rubles.

The acceleration dynamics of a car with a new engine has increased significantly (11 s). On average, fuel consumption was 7.6 l/100 km.

Technical part of the 8-valve engine

Structurally, these engines differ significantly from each other, although at first glance this is not the case. Of course, the crankshaft, connecting rods and piston group are all almost the same. The differences are mainly in the upper part, where the valves and camshaft are located. This is the main difference, although if desired, any 8-valve engine can be made into a 16-valve engine, and vice versa. Their cylinder block is almost identical, which means that theoretically you can install any head on it, with one or two camshafts.

An eight-valve engine has one camshaft, while a 16-valve engine has two. In both cases, the camshafts are controlled by the fuel injection system and the removal of exhaust gases from the combustion chambers. In technical terms, everything doesn’t look that complicated.

There are two valves on top of each cylinder: intake and exhaust. The inlet opens to supply fuel to the combustion chamber, the exhaust opens to remove gases. The camshaft regulates the order of their opening. There are protrusions on it in the form of cones, and when rotated they press on one or another valve to open. The engine has 4 cylinders, which means there are 8 valves in total.

pros

Simple is always more reliable, because the fewer parts, the less often the mechanism breaks down. This rule also applies to an 8-valve engine. There is only one camshaft, a minimum of attachments and few structural parts, which makes repairs easier and cheaper. Hydraulic compensators are not used; mechanical pushers are used instead. On the one hand, this simplifies the design and makes repairs cheaper. On the other hand, the thermal clearance of the valves has to be adjusted from time to time.

This engine works great with semi-synthetic motor oil. There are also no strict fuel requirements: both 95 and 92 can be used. Due to its design, the engine is small in size, which means it is easier to service and remove attachments.

Minuses

The main imperfection of this engine is insufficient power. Each cylinder has two valves. Accordingly, intake and exhaust flow slower, therefore the maximum speed is lower, and it will not be possible to develop a high speed. Due to the slow intake-exhaust cycle, there may be a slight increase in fuel consumption. The engine is forced to spend more energy pushing exhaust gases through the only exhaust valve per cylinder.

The disadvantages include increased engine noise when driving at high speed. Camshaft and valve pushers constantly require adjustment of the thermal clearance. If this is not done, production will gradually increase and increased noise will appear. The valves are also adjusted so that fuel consumption does not increase and the engine works better. In general, the engine can be characterized as simple and reliable, but requiring timely maintenance, like any other mechanism.

Suspension

The suspension characteristics of the model are not very good; the car is equipped with a front independent suspension, which is mounted on 2 levers, equipped with cylindrical coil springs, cylindrical shock absorbers and anti-roll bars. The rear suspension of the Lada is dependent and consists of a guide device and special elastic elements that dampen vibrations and shaking of the body. Car enthusiasts often tune the suspension by installing stiffer springs and increasing the stiffness of the stabilizer. The suspension is quite reliable, but this does not mean that it does not need to be taken care of and monitored; chassis repair is always a complex and time-consuming process that requires special equipment.

The car was mass produced from 2003 to 2013 and during this time managed to gain great popularity among domestic car enthusiasts, but progress does not stand still and in 2013 this model was replaced by the Lada Kalina. If you were considering the possibility of buying a domestic car, then the VAZ 2114 is an excellent option; it will serve you faithfully for many years.

Main differences and comparison of cars

At first glance, it is not so easy to find the differences between these two domestic cars. This is understandable, since the VAZ-2114 replaced the VAZ-2109 as a modernized, improved version of its predecessor. This is not a transition to a completely new model. Nowadays such transformations are usually called restyling. The VAZ-2114 does not reach the level of a new generation car, since it has too much in common with the “nine”. The car is different, but in less significant parameters, according to experts and motorists. But you can compare the VAZ-2114 and 2109. If you carefully study the features of the two cars produced by the Russian company, you will understand how they differ from each other.

Having compared the VAZ-2109 and VAZ-2114, we come to the following conclusions:

1. The new version of the “nine”, called VAZ-2114, has undergone changes inside and out. New headlights appeared on the body, a new lining was made on the radiator grille, and the front bumper and hood were somewhat modernized. Also on the fourteenth model, stylish and fashionable moldings were installed at that time.
2. The VAZ-2109 or simply “nine” boasts an indestructible, practically invulnerable front bumper. But when developing the fourteenth VAZ, engineers lost sight of this component, as a result of which the predecessor’s bumper is considered better than that of its successor.
3. Serious changes affected the front panel, if we move on to the internal equipment of the VAZ-2114. The new control panel has been adapted to European standards. Because the inside of the car looks more attractive, everything looks concise, logical and stylish. But the “nine” retained the Soviet-style panel, which has neither style nor any intelligible logic. They installed everything that was required for the car, but the engineers and designers didn’t think much about how they installed it. The main thing is that it is.
4. VAZ-2114 was electrified. The primary innovation was the installation of electric front windows. Finally, the owners of domestic cars felt what it was like not to turn the oars, but to raise and lower the window by simply pressing a button.
5. The heir to the legendary “nine” tried to outdo its predecessor and attract more audience by installing a new steering wheel and an adjustable steering column. Although in terms of the steering wheel, the engineers did not come up with anything new, but simply borrowed this element from another VAZ. Namely, the VAZ-2110, or simply “tens”.
6. Internal changes to the fourteenth model made the interior more modern, interesting and functional. Although fans of the old school believe that the interior of the “nine” was more reliable. This is rather a matter of habit, since a modern person wants to get at least some relevant automotive benefits. In this component, 2114 is noticeably ahead of 2109.
7. The engine compartment has also been modernized. Eight-valve gasoline engines with four cylinders were installed on the “nines” from the factory. Depending on the configuration, the client could order a power unit with a volume of 1.1, 1.3 and 1.5 liters. Nothing bad can be said about the engines, but these are frankly outdated engines. No more. In the case of the fourteenth model, new engines began to be installed. To be more precise, there was initially only one engine, borrowed from the “nine”. The line of engines featured only a 1.5-liter power unit. But then the developers took into account their mistake, as a result of which they added a 1.6-liter gasoline 16-valve engine to choose from.

These are the main distinctive features with which you can compare two Russian-made cars. It's important to understand that both cars are workhorses and not luxury or luxury cars. If you need a high level of convenience, modern equipment, air conditioning, airbags of various types, then these cars are clearly not for you

Differences between the 2013 and 2012 models

Those who remember the year the VAZ 2114 was produced will be interested to know how the 2013 car differed from the 2012 car. There were no significant differences between the latest cars. There was no restyling in 2013, only the last fourteen cars stopped installing spoilers. But towards the end of production, cars in luxury configurations and modernized “four” “Super Auto” models were more often rolled off the assembly line. They had the following differences from the standard version:

• Improved suspension;
• 16-valve engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and a power of 89-98 horsepower;
• Front electric windows;
• On-board computer;
• Modified heating and cooling system;
• Fog lights in the front bumper;
• 4 headrests on seats;
• Heated front seats;
• Audio preparation;
• Electronic gas pedal.

There were also some other minor features. But at the same time, the production of older modifications of the VAZ 2114 was not formally stopped. It is believed that they were all discontinued on the same day.

The main “sores” of the car

The car has a lot of problems, and if you don’t take care of the car right away, it will serve you for very little time. First of all, the car body is the weakest point of the fourteenth family. It begins to rot 3 years after the car leaves the assembly line

Particular attention should be paid to the sills, wheel arches, trunk lids and hood. You can deal with this problem

Many owners treat the body with an anti-corrosion coating.

Antifreeze leakage is another car problem. You need to carefully monitor the hose clamps and the lid of the antifreeze tank. It is necessary to tighten all hose connections with clamps in a timely manner. The handbrake can often become loose or not work at all; the problem is solved by replacing the cable.

Headlight bulbs burn out almost every year. Therefore, it would be a good idea to carry spare lamps with you so as not to end up in an unpleasant situation.

You need to pay special attention to the condition of the brake pads, especially before preparing for winter. Another characteristic problem of this car is in the cabin - after a few years of operation, the ceiling sags

It is necessary to pay attention to the floor of the car, water often accumulates there, which can lead to corrosion.
