People choose car colors for a reason. If a person likes the car, he has chosen his favorite color, then we can already say who he is: sanguine or chaleric. And this is a psychological portrait. Lada Vesta has 9 main colors and 1-2 unique colors in each body. For the sedan it is lime, for the cross it is Mars. For the sw station wagon, this is Carthage.
To expand the Lada Vesta palette, up to nine possible paint options were finalized. These are the most top-end shades among sedans. For the Vesta SW Cross station wagon, colors are presented in a slightly wider range. Shades have certain characteristics. Read the article and you will know everything about them!
Carrying out transportation, delivering the owner from point A to point B, or simply becoming a symbol of wealth, people need a car in 2022.
There is no analogue of a vehicle in the world that is so widespread and popular. And the AvtoVAZ Lada model range is especially popular among the former USSR.
Practical, reliable, adapted to the realities of Russian roads, AvtoVAZ cars have recently had a stylish design and fashionable design.
Painting features
The appearance of the car is the first thing people pay attention to. There is nothing worse than a poorly chosen shade or poorly executed paint job. The body colors of the Lada Vesta are metallic (with the exception of white); to obtain the result, it is necessary to follow the stages and technology of car painting. It is important to maintain stylistic unity in the overall appearance. Lada Vesta's color scheme is chosen so that the body color emphasizes the lines of the car's silhouette more than usual and creates a spectacular impression of its appearance.
Specifications
Now we come to the most interesting part - the technical component.
Of course, as is the case with trim levels and options, the station wagon’s engines are the same as the sedan’s engines. These are two sixteen-valve power units with a volume of 1.6 and 1.8 liters and a power of 106 and 122 hp. respectively. The second option turned out to be quite dynamic, especially in combination with mechanics. By the way, both engines are equipped with two transmissions to choose from - classic mechanics and a robotic automatic.

Previously, West sedans were equipped with French mechanics, but then they decided to abandon them in favor of domestic development. The engines do not suffer from a lack of traction, which is sufficient throughout almost the entire rev range.
True, the 1.8-liter engine will still be more powerful. Otherwise, everything turned out soft and at the same time cheerful. There is only one unpleasant moment left - this is the gluttony of the engine, which AvtoVAZ could not moderate. The engine consumes on average 10 liters per 100 km.
AVTOVAZ did not reinvent the wheel and installed the same engines in the station wagon that were in the previous generation. These are modern Russian-made units. An MTOR with a volume of 1.6 is called a VAZ-21129.
This is a more advanced version of the obsolete VAZ-21127, which was good for everyone, except for one thing - it did not meet environmental standards.
If some 8-10 years ago no one paid attention to this, then recently this problem has become relevant. As a result, the engine was modified and stuffed into the new Vesta
There are no questions about the mechanism. It behaves quite decently on domestic roads.
Engine Lada Vesta SV
Of course, when taking into account the weight of the car, sometimes there is a lack of power, but such a disadvantage is insignificant and this is not present in a more powerful engine.
It is worth noting one more point regarding the timing belt. If it breaks, the valves will quickly wear out. If you take care of this, this motor has a long service life and will last for many years.
Colors for Lada Vesta and codes for them
The palette of various shades is wide; for convenience, each of the newly developed paints is assigned a code. Vesta has developed colors to choose from: White “Glacial” (221) Red “Carnelian” (195) Brown “Angkor” (246) Dark blue “Blues” (492) Dark green “Krypton” (372) Gray-blue “ Phantom" (496) Gray "Pluto" (608) Black "Black Pearl" (676) Silver "Platinum" (691) Everyone has their own preferences in all areas of life, and car paint is purely a matter of taste. The presented options have unique features.
LADA Vesta SW Cross by color scheme
White Glacier 221
The white body color is the factory standard, and therefore you do not have to pay for it. The two-layer enamel clearly conveys the “character of a glacier.” We don’t have to talk about practicality, but in defense it’s worth mentioning the savings of 12 thousand rubles. Externally, this design suits the car.
Mars "orange" 130
It is orange that AvtoVAZ exhibits as a presentable color for the new LADA Vesta SW Cross. The station wagon acquires with it a spirit of adventurism, where there are no limits beyond the end of the road. “Mars” has the richest pigmentation in the line. Stands out from afar in traffic. Suitable for people with fresh views on life - girls are also interested in orange.
Carnelian “red” 195
Metallic in this design has long been considered the top color for many car brands. Additional payment of 12 thousand rubles. justified
Red gives the body a little charm, which is important for young people trying to attract the attention of the opposite sex. Cross means a ground clearance of 203 mm: among sedans, finding your vehicle is easier than ever. The female half of humanity definitely prefers “carnelian”
The female half of humanity definitely prefers “carnelian”.
Angkor “brown” 246
The most unpretentious enamel. Various types of abrasions or scratches are most easily eliminated by independent efforts. Minor dirt is visible only on the sunniest days, but on other days the body looks like it has been washed. “Angkor” is the most controversial color – not every driver in our country would decide to overpay that kind of money for it.

Carthage "gray-beige" 247
The name “Carthage” already implies a special status for the driver. It is for this that they are asking as much as 18 thousand rubles. The manufacturer created this unique price segment for a reason. AvtoVAZ is skillfully trying to sell a top-end car at a higher price. Gray-beige cannot be overlooked when looking for a company car. It allows the Lada Vesta SV Cross to stand out among the executive class only with its advantages while hiding the “obvious disadvantages”.
Blues "dark blue" 492
The melodious name for this color scheme is a successful marketing move. Dark blue is not my favorite color due to its operational characteristics. Definitely aimed at people who use their own transport for work.
Phantom "gray-blue" 496
The only enamel with chameleon capabilities. Under direct sunny colors, it is possible to clearly see several shades that successfully combine with each other. For such a body design, the indicated price may not show much. When choosing your LADA Vesta SW Cross, be sure to personally evaluate the “Phantom”: it can change your idea of domestic enamel for cars.
Pluto "gray" 608
Gray color is traditionally chosen by drivers who are accustomed to driving discreetly around their city.
An excellent option is to simply leave the yard without attracting the attention of others. “Pluto” hides all the summer dust that has settled from prying eyes, so washing is not a first necessity
Black pearl “black” 676
There is never too much black. Lada Vesta SV Cross with an X-shaped bumper in black looks extremely strict. Despite the high ground clearance, the station wagon is capable of playing the role of a corporate car.
Platinum "silver" 691
Another option for novice drivers is to skillfully hide their inexperience behind the wheel: scratches cannot be immediately noticed. “Platinum” is something in between in the entire range of colors for SV Cross.
Angkor has code 246, looks brown
Angkor, or metallic brown, is a popular, frequently chosen sedan color. This shade of milk chocolate goes perfectly with the urban setting, harmoniously diluting the grayness of residential areas. The color is not easily soiled, pleasing to the eye in the dirtiest weather, successfully hiding dust and minor imperfections. It belongs to the category of classic colors that have unobtrusively and confidently conquered the market. Practical and versatile, the brown Lada Vesta is suitable for men and women, becoming evidence of the owner's business character.
About the original colors of the car
Of the entire list of Xray shades, two of the most original ones should be especially highlighted: dark brown puma and fresh orange.
Dark brown "Puma"
- Puma color is the most suitable color option for a crossover. It is not easily soiled and looks stylish. This color is aimed at the widest consumer audience; it is completely universal and will suit everyone, from young people to retirees.
- Fresh color is a bright and catchy youth version of the Lada X-Ray. It is obvious that the target consumer audience of this car is young people and girls who like to emphasize their individuality with catchy shades. This color is experimental and even revolutionary for Russia.
Glacial has code 221, looks white
White Lada Vesta is the most popular option, since the paint is not metallic; in addition to its advantages, it is extremely inexpensive. The strict arctic shade emphasizes the lines of the silhouette, and the black body elements stand out as much as possible against the background of the car. The rear headlights look like a bright fragment - giving the overall appearance a certain zest. Quite capricious in handling, in terms of chips - on white, the slightest imperfections, dirt, traces of rain are clearly visible. But I must say that the white color is more practical than black, the black Vesta gets dirty quickly - this color is called: “Die with a rag.” Under the rays of sunlight, the white Lada Vesta sedan sparkles like pure snow, laconically confirming the name - Glacier. White color characterizes the Sport style!
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.
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 is not 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
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.”
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.”
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.
Pluto – code 608
The dark gray Lada evokes thoughts of constancy and stability. There are many representatives of this car color, which gives the impression of reliability and confidence - tomorrow is a new day, new food. This shade is the least easily soiled - important for any owner. The most unexpected thing is that in the graphite tone the outlines of the “X” - shaped lines on the side doors of the car - are very noticeable. Despite the ordinariness, Vesta, colored Pluto, surprises with its unity of style.

Diesel and gasoline engines
The technical parameters of the car have become known. At the end of 2020, Lada made the base for the West SV Cross a 1.6-liter engine, which is equipped with many models of the AvtoVAZ concern. Such an engine is capable of producing 106 horsepower with 148 Nm of torque, and its appetite is about 7 liters in the combined cycle (see photo of the Lada Vesta Cross).
Also, the official model range is represented by a 1.8-liter unit with good performance characteristics. The power of this modification is 122 horses with 170 Nm of torque, and consumption is 9.9 liters in city mode.

However, the exact date for mass production of vesta sw station wagons equipped with a diesel engine is still unknown.
Station wagon transmission
The station wagon uses the same engines and gearboxes as the regular Lada Vesta sw. Basic modifications equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission will go on sale. The Lada Vesta Cross station wagon will also go on sale, equipped with a 5-range robotic gearbox, where the electrics and transmission are connected together.
