How much horsepower does the VAZ 2114 have (1.5, 1.6 with 8 and 16 valve engines)

“Fourteenth”, despite the fact that it has an outdated design, is still in demand by domestic drivers. Therefore, future owners of this car are interested in how much horsepower the VAZ 2114 has and which engine is best to get it with. Over its history, the car was produced with different types of power units of varying power. In this article we will tell you what engines this car was produced with, and also analyze their strengths and weaknesses, fuel consumption and acceleration.

8 valve engine 1.6

The 1.6-liter engine with 8 valves also began to be installed in 2003, that is, from the first years of production. The last such “four” rolled off the assembly line in 2013. Fans of the model are interested in how much horsepower the VAZ 2114 (8 valves) has with an engine of this size.

This power unit has a power of 89 horses . It is slightly more powerful than a 1.5 liter engine. But it is advisable to use AI-95 gasoline for it.

True, many owners fill in AI-92, which does not harm the car at all. The car is very economical. In the combined cycle, its fuel consumption is about 7.5 liters per hundred kilometers. And it accelerates to 100 km/h in 13 seconds. Since 2010, AvtoVAZ began installing an electronic gas pedal on this modification. But this innovation was not warmly received by all car enthusiasts. Fuel injection has also been improved in connection with new environmental standards. Fans of the model also have an ambivalent attitude towards this change.

Last year of production of VAZ 2114

The answer to the question of what year they stopped producing the VAZ 2114 will be 2013 . In December, the last “fourteenth” rolled off the assembly line. The popular hatchback was discontinued to make way for the more modern Lada Granta and Lada Priora.

By the time production ended, the car was a budget, inexpensive model. Its cost was about 300,000 rubles. For this money, the car was equipped with the most minimal set of options. It practically did not have even the most basic safety and comfort features.

16 valve engine 1.6 (SuperAuto)

Not everyone knows, but 2114 also has a special SuperAuto series. A small number of these cars were produced. They are distinguished by improved driving performance and dynamic characteristics.

Under the hood of this car there is a 1.6-liter engine with 16 valves. It produces a power of as much as 92 hp , which is quite good for this model. Combined with the light weight of the car, this made it much faster. The car accelerates to 100 km/h in 11.2 seconds.

AI-95 fuel is recommended for this engine. But some drivers use AI-92. For a hundred kilometers, such a car requires approximately 7.2 liters of gasoline.

Lowriders movement

What is the trunk volume of the Lada Kalina station wagon in liters? 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.

Fuel consumption

Hatchbacks of this model are known for their efficiency. They consume little fuel, both on the highway and in the city. We invite you to compare the gasoline consumption of the VAZ 2114 for modifications with different types of power plants.

Interior

The interior of the car has undergone quite a lot of changes. A Europanel with an on-board computer was installed in the cabin (a standard option for cars produced since 2007). A steering wheel from a VAZ 2110 is installed, height adjustable. The car is also equipped with a new heating system and electric windows in the driver and passenger seats. The rear passenger seats are transformed, making it possible to carry more cargo, thus turning the sedan into a cargo-passenger station wagon.

The most popular engine remains the 8-valve 1.6-liter engine with an injection distribution system, migrated from the VAZ 2111. Despite the frequent failure of the injection system and fairly rapid wear and tear of the cooling system (only 50 thousand kilometers), it does not lose its relevance. It is also worth noting the modification of 2007, when the VAZ 2114 began to be equipped with a Euro standard engine with a power of 80 hp.

Acceleration to 100 km/h

Thanks to the light weight of the body, with its modest power data, the car turned out to be quite nimble. Even with the weakest power unit, it accelerates to 100 km/h quite quickly. The table presents comparative acceleration data for cars with different types of engines.

Suspension upgrade

What year Gazelle and with which engine is better
Basic characteristics of the VAZ-211440 has a good suspension that allows you to drive on Russian roads without any problems. However, fine tuning will make it stiffer, for which you need to get high-quality shock absorbers. In order to reduce roll angles, it is recommended to install rigid anti-roll bars.

Don't forget about the wheels if you're planning on tuning the suspension. The visual component comes to the fore. For the “fourteenth” there is a wide variety of alloy wheels available in many specialty stores and markets.

Which engine is better?

Each of the engines of this car has its own disadvantages and advantages. Therefore, it is difficult to answer this question unambiguously.

The 1.5 liter engine has little power, but it is reliable and unpretentious. The power unit is not demanding on fuel quality. If the timing belt breaks, the valve does not bend. A common problem with such power units is belt slippage. If you don't take care of it, it can be damaged by the rollers. The 1.6-liter 8-valve engine slightly added power to the car. But at the same time, gasoline consumption has also increased. This engine is the most uneconomical among those installed on the VAZ 2114. At the same time, it is reliable and durable. In cars with an electronic gas pedal, according to some motorists, slower acceleration is possible. But perhaps this is due to driving style and other factors. The 16-valve 1.6-liter engine is considered the most progressive and powerful in the line. He gave the “fourteenth” a significant increase in power and excellent dynamics. At the same time, fuel consumption has also decreased. This engine needs good maintenance and better fuel. If the timing belt breaks, the valves may bend. This is an unpleasant feature of the power unit.

Debut

The first time the new Lada white 2114 was shown back in 2001. More than 18 years have passed since then. Yes, it is based on 2109, but it is different in many ways. The front panel has become more prestigious and presentable, the steering wheel has become adjustable as in 2010. A more efficient interior heating system has been added. Yes, the exterior has become completely different. The hood is more sleek, the front optics have become completely arched, the radiator grille and other little details have become completely different, lending themselves to a different style and taste. The bumper was very nice and aggressive, which is a huge advantage. However, the designers sacrificed quality for the sake of beauty - it is made of plastic and collapses with every touch. The old part from the VAZ-2109 was much stronger, therefore better. We can say that this is just a matter of taste and preference, however, according to reviews from the owners, no one likes it.

APPEARANCE

Despite the release of a newer model, there are not many differences between the VAZ-2114 and VAZ-2109 in terms of bodywork. The new product had:

• New front part of the body;
• New lens shape;
• New hood;
• Another radiator grille;
• Improved quality of plastic on bumpers;
• Spoiler;
• Moldings;
• Door sill covers.

One thing can be said frankly: the VAZ-2114 was very lucky due to the policy pursued by the manufacturing company. In fact, the pioneer in this series was the VAZ-2115 sedan, which, as practice has shown, was a real pancake.

Taking into account the mistakes made, the innovations developed for the 15th and the use of time-tested features of the 2109, it was possible to release a complete and one of the most successful vehicles in the history of AvtoVAZ - the Lada-2114. The weight of the car was 970 kilograms, and its carrying capacity was 425 kilograms. Ground clearance height – 160 mm.

After improvements in 2011, the ground clearance was increased by 5 millimeters. This was achieved thanks to the installation of racks from Lada Priora. Between the headlights there is a small radiator grille. This decision was made partly due to the fact that the engine does not need a large air flow for cooling. It is in this place that the handle for opening the hood is located, which is very practical.

The VAZ-2114 car has become much better than its predecessor in terms of appearance and interior design. The design turned out to be more streamlined and stylish.

The side part of the VAZ-2114 has external mirrors made in a rectangular shape. Thanks to this solution, the driver has better control of the situation on the road. I would also like to mention the doors of the 14th model. They have a special opening mechanism, which makes boarding and disembarking passengers more comfortable.

According to statements by AvtoVAZ designers, the door opening angle is almost 90 percent. Not every car can boast such characteristics to improve the level of comfort for its passengers and owner. The five-door model comes with 13-inch wheels, which, if desired, can be replaced with more massive ones.

The rear part was completed with an eye to new ideas and solutions. The stern of the VA-2114 has modified headlights, which received 3 signals: stop, reverse and turn signals. This element is very practical and interesting. Moreover, this solution saves a little space. Almost all automobile concerns use similar technologies.

In general, the appearance of the VAZ-2114 has become more pleasant, modern and not so sharp compared to the VAZ-2109. A stylish body kit along the entire edge of the car added some zest to the appearance. It's nice that the bumpers are now painted to match the body color. The exterior of the new product was equipped with sporty features: the headlights narrowed, the shape of the hood changed, and the body became more streamlined.

The aerodynamic performance was initially identical to that of the 2115 model. However, later, the drag coefficient of the updated Lada-2114 was even lower - 0.45 versus 0.46 for the “standard” 2109. But the balance of lift forces changed seriously: the total lift force increased slightly, but it was now distributed evenly across the axes. Due to such improvements, the quality of driving at high speeds improves.

A small feature of the Lada 2114 car is the installed spoiler, which allows you to increase road grip, as well as the dynamic data of the car. It’s doubly nice that such an element comes already in the basic version from the factory.
