Last fall, a new product from AvtoVAZ went on sale - the Lada Vesta SV Cross station wagon. To say that the new product was a sensation is to say nothing. VAZ was able to attract potential buyers not only with its thoughtful external design and ergonomics, but also with the good equipment of the new product. In addition, buyers were given real freedom in terms of choosing body colors. The Lada Vesta NE Pluton became especially popular. Just look how it looks in sunlight:
On the official website, the color of the Lada Vesta SV pluton is described as follows:
“Dark gray enamel, giving austerity... but at the same time emphasizing the play of the “X”-shaped graphics of the LADA Vesta.”
I would like to note that Pluto is a new product in the AvtoVAZ color line. Previously, this color was not used in the model range of VAZ cars. This is a really strict shade that looks respectable in any situation - both on a sunny and on a cloudy day. At night, the color reveals itself even more - only at dusk you can feel the full depth of the paint. If you cover a car with a special polish, you will get a surface in which you can see your reflection.

If we talk specifically about the Vesta Cross in Pluto color, then this color is well emphasized by the plastic body kit around the perimeter of the body, not as much as white, of course, but at least it is not lost, unlike black. The car looks especially good on the factory 17-inch wheels with low-profile tires, thanks to which the dimensions even make it look like a real crossover, and not a regular station wagon. However, even on the “stamped” models with high tires, the model looks interesting, to some extent “brutal,” hinting at some utilitarianism.
Detailed video review of Lada Vesta SW Cross in pluto color
Do you want to feel close to this car and even sit inside? Look at this detailed review from the Drom portal, where not a single element of the exterior or interior will be left unattended. The video shows the initial configuration of the Vesta SV Cross LUX in the color pluto; in one of our previous articles we talked about what is included in it, you can see it on our website. In this version, the car is equipped with a 1.6 engine and a manual gearbox; noteworthy is the fact that all the brakes are disc, including the rear ones, unlike the regular SV station wagon, where versions with a 1.6-liter engine have drums installed at the rear.
Reviews of the color Pluto on Vesta
“I spent a long time choosing the color of my future car, at first I wanted a black pearl, but when I saw how the body kit merged with plastic, I immediately changed my mind, since it is practically invisible. In the end, the choice fell on Pluto, and I don’t regret it at all. At the moment I have driven about 5000 km, there are no scratches yet, so I don’t know if they will be very noticeable, but the dirt up close is of course visible quite strongly, but if you move away, even a short distance, the car looks clean. Amazing right? Well, this is purely my personal opinion. Before this I owned a silver color, where everything was much worse in this regard, but the scratches were practically invisible. »
Maxim (Moscow)
“Initially I planned to buy Vesta Cross in the phantom color, but it was not available anywhere, but there were quite a lot of plutons, so I decided to stop with it. Overall I like the color, especially in sunlight, it looks unusual, I haven’t seen this on other cars. There are already a few scratches, I didn’t say that they are not noticeable, but not as bad as on the black color. I didn’t say that the color is very easily soiled, it’s about the same as others, maybe a little better.”
Vladimir (St. Petersburg)
“For several years I owned a Pluto sedan, I am completely satisfied! During this time, unfortunately, I managed to get several “knocks”, which I did not eliminate in any way, since they were barely noticeable. In the end, I decided to buy the Cross version in exactly the same color. Most of all, of course, the plastic body kit goes well with white, but I didn’t want to lose in practicality.”
Many characterize the color of the Lada Vesta SV “Pluto” as dark gray enamel, which gives special rigor to the car and emphasizes the sophistication of the X-shaped graphics.

In this case, I would like to note that the Lada Vesta in “pluto” color is a relative novelty for the Tolyatti plant, since this shade has not previously been used for body painting. This is a really great option that many customers who saw it really liked. Moreover, in the dark, this novelty reveals itself even more strongly - only in the twilight can one understand how deep the tone of the “pluto” is. If you use the special Vesta “Pluto” polish, you can even see your reflection in the car.
Paint quality: which is better, galvanization or cathophoresis, and what is the guarantee?
In fact, the very appointment of Bu Inge Anderson as the head of our auto giant during a difficult time for AvtoVAZ was associated with improving the quality of its products. The further course of events showed that fundamental improvements had taken place, starting from the design and interior equipment of the cabin and ending with the build quality of the car, which were most fully manifested in the Vesta model.

And the current 6-year warranty on painting is not so much a marketing ploy, but the fact that the eternal domestic problem of protection against corrosion and poor quality of body coating has been overcome. If the first problem in the West is solved by galvanizing bodies, dipping them into molten zinc, then AvtoVAZ decided to go its own way and is trying to protect the body with a cathophoresis primer.
Lada Vesta color brown
Of course, 6 warranty years is not 15, like Swedish ones, or 20 years, like some German cars, but this is good by our standards, or, as they say, it’s nothing more than the beginning. However, cathophoresis is actually cooler than banal galvanizing, since it is an electrochemical process of attaching a substance to the metal that performs protective functions.
Lada Vesta green photo
As for the body painting, on Vesta it occurs immediately after the cathophoresis primer and its stages are as follows:
- The first stage begins with applying mastic to all surfaces that are mating with each other and that have seams;
- Then comes the stage of spraying mastic - anti-noise;
- A primer is applied to the body, which has only two color characteristics - light or dark, depending on the future tone of the body color.
- After these procedures, the body enters special painting chambers, where the paint coating is sprayed;
- Then comes varnishing, and Vesta’s bodies go into drying chambers for heat treatment of the coating;
- But that’s not all, since then come the final touches of polishing and treating the cavities that are in the bodies with special anti-corrosion compounds.
↑ Practicality of the “pluto” color of Lada Vesta
Even if you consider that the car seems discreet in appearance, in practice it is very convenient and practical. This is the first car painted in this color. In the color range, this shade is the most non-staining, and it shows the least traces of dirt. And even after the most unscrupulous washing, the car will still not lose its external luster.
As for paint chips and small scratches, they will also not be too noticeable on the model and its configuration. Still, this is what makes the gray color so good. This tone is perfect for the owner who, on the one hand, does not want to stand out from the crowd, and on the other, wants to preserve his individuality. In addition, maintenance of this color will be much more profitable.
VestaCross SW in red – description
The manufacturer named the shade after a natural stone, which is distinguished by a reddish tint - Serdolic, the origin of this stone is facilitated by volcanic activity.
The Russian people associated this stone with the color of the heart, and the poet called it carnelian. Esotericists claim that Serdolic is the stone that personifies love and fire.
A car in metallic red color speaks of energy, dynamism, and the bright design looks good on the roads.
For red color, a unique painting technology is used. High-quality cataphoretic primers are used, which increases the adhesion (adhesion of surfaces) of enameled parts to metal elements.
The paint coating has become thicker, the manufacturer assures that it will retain its original appearance for at least six years.
Advantages and disadvantages of Serdolic
All AVTOVAZ cars have always had a red car in their color range, so the manufacturer simply did not violate established traditions by creating the new Serdolic vehicle. This car is not for everyone, as the bright color makes it seem vulgar
Reviews about Serdolic color
“Looks great on the road - I always wanted a red car, the Serdolic shade is just a dream come true. Stylish design, shimmers beautifully in the sun, bright. I really like it” — Alena, Lipetsk “In my opinion, the color is too bright. It would be possible to make him more calm, but it’s even unnerving. The quality of the paint is excellent, it looks good, but I still decided to opt for the black pearl” - Igor, Yekaterinburg
↑ Lada Vesta “Pluto”: painting technology
Lada Vesta SV Cross in Pluto color has joined the large line of other shades in which the SUV is painted. At the same time, the plant management reported that when painting and repairing cars they will now use the latest technologies, as well as higher-quality paints and varnishes. Moreover, not only the new dark gray paint is taken into account, but also a special automotive primer, which increases the thickness of the paint and enhances the adhesion of the enamel, thereby increasing the technical characteristics. The news about Lada says that thanks to this painting, the enamel will retain its properties for at least six months.
As practice shows, the overall thickness of the station wagon shade has also increased. Now, according to information on the official website, it is up to 135 microns. And this is almost 1/3 more than the same Kia Rio and other competitive cars. This should have a positive effect on such a negative factor as corrosion in the most inappropriate places.
AvtoVAZ offers the Lada Vesta Cross not only in the “Pluto” color, but also in other shades. The car comes in colors like Platinum, Tone Black, Phantom, Blues, Carthage, Chestnut, Pure White, Red and Mars Tint.
Lada Vesta color blues photos and features
The Togliatti-based concern offers customers a huge range of colors in which the vehicle body can be painted. Since colored frames are manufactured in batches, dealers offer only a portion of the available color options. The blue Lada Vesta very much reminded me of Subaru, whose signature colors are exactly like that. Color blues reviews are mostly positive. There are very few people who will find such colors repulsive.
The newest automobile business strives not only to modernize tactical and technical indicators, reliability and increased safety of drivers and passengers, but also with intriguing appearance. To give the car a memorable image, it is possible to tune the body, as well as its color (blues, lime, carnelian). A photo of the blue body can be seen below.
Large number of frame colors
AvtoVAZ is making great strides in modernizing cars; the New Lada Vesta offers a wide range of colors for your vehicle to choose from.
On a note!
Nowadays, few people can be surprised by such a choice, but a year after the release of the Tolyatti brainchild, we can say that the Lada Vesta has been very successful in this category. Designers promise to satisfy every customer’s taste: from the warmest and lightest, to the darkest and coldest.
The final palette is:
- Carnelian with code 195 - a car in reddish-pink shades;
- Angkor (246) – brown color;
- Lada Vesta blues (paint code 492) – elegant, masculine metallic blue color;
- Phantom (496) – gray-blue tone;
- Krypton (372) – dark green;
- Platinum (608) – dark gray color of the car;
- black pearl (paint code 676) - the name speaks for itself;
- Pluto (691) – silver-beige car;
- Glacial (221) – white;
- Lime color (366) is purchased in the maximum configuration for an additional amount.
All Lada Vesta colors are available when choosing from catalogs or directly at the point of sale.
How they paint at the factory
The body of the Lada Vesta with blue color is made in the same way as all the others. The bare frame is delivered to the grinding shop, after which the iron is moved into a closed room, where an automatic sprayer applies paint. When it dries, workers sand out minor imperfections. New technologies increase the adhesion of spray paint to the surface and are guaranteed to protect the frame from corrosive damage for at least six years.
Photos of Lada Vesta in blue color leave people with positive opinions. Many people like this color. The Blues Tint gives a feeling of security and peace and repels aggression from others.
↑ Painting quality
This time, the automobile plant made a real breakthrough, which is visible to the naked eye. Thus, thanks not only to the latest equipment, but also to a fundamentally new painting technology, as well as cataphoretic primer, AvtoVAZ managed to fulfill a long-standing dream - now the enamel will retain its properties for six months. To say it's great is to say nothing. In addition, the thickness of the paint and varnish material has become greater. At the moment it is up to 135 microns.
On its website, the manufacturer offers to tell you in what other colors the buyer would like to see a car of this brand. To do this, you need to leave a comment, name, and e-mail on the site. Rumors persist that the plant wants to increase the number of flowers to twenty. And this is significant progress for the plant.
Design plans for the future
According to management statements, the concern is not going to stop there. Following the latest modifications, it is planned to release an off-road station wagon with all-wheel drive and a 4x4 wheel arrangement. It is believed that the appearance of the model will change, and its body will acquire unique touches.
Currently, the most expensive Exclusive package is available only for the sedan body type. However, soon it is planned to launch civilian and off-road station wagons in the Exclusive configuration on the market. The exterior of such cars is also subject to changes.
The same can be said about methane modification. Only the sedan is currently available in showrooms. But the latest news suggests that the appearance of station wagons with a bi-fuel methane engine is not far off. Their design will also differ from the usual design. So AvtoVAZ designers still have plenty of work to do.

↑ Lada Vesta “Pluto”: reviews
Let's look at a few reviews from real customers who decided to purchase a car in this color.
“I came to the dealership to choose a new car. I really liked the Pluto color. There are no traces visible on it, dust and dirt are not noticeable. Thanks to this, I wash my car several times less often after purchase. We have a dacha, access to which is practically through the bushes. In this case, you have to shuffle through nearby growing bushes. The resulting scratches are not visible. I bought myself a polish for this purpose in a store, wiped it with a cloth, and the defects were gone.”
↑ Color palette of Lada Vesta
In addition to the “Pluto”, the car is available in several other colors. And this:
- pure white glacial color, which is used as a base paint;
- deep and rich black color;
- Angkor - a shade close to chocolate;
- juicy and rich yellow-green shade “lime”;
- platinum;
- deep blue;
- chestnut;
- phantom;
- red with the beautiful name “carnelian”.
In all these colors, in addition to “Pluto”, you can buy a Vesta car.
↑ Conclusion
As you can see, the “pluto” color is the optimal shade that allows you to save on washing costs and purchase a car with a deep shade that is not too flashy, but at the same time beautiful.
Last fall, a new product from AvtoVAZ went on sale - the Lada Vesta SV Cross station wagon. To say that the new product was a sensation is to say nothing. VAZ was able to attract potential buyers not only with its thoughtful external design and ergonomics, but also with the good equipment of the new product. In addition, buyers were given real freedom in terms of choosing body colors. The Lada Vesta NE Pluton became especially popular. Just look how it looks in sunlight:
On the official website, the color of the Lada Vesta SV pluton is described as follows:
“Dark gray enamel, giving austerity... but at the same time emphasizing the play of the “X”-shaped graphics of the LADA Vesta.”
I would like to note that Pluto is a new product in the AvtoVAZ color line. Previously, this color was not used in the model range of VAZ cars. This is a really strict shade that looks respectable in any situation - both on a sunny and on a cloudy day. At night, the color reveals itself even more - only at dusk you can feel the full depth of the paint. If you cover a car with a special polish, you will get a surface in which you can see your reflection.
Ghostly Shade
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.
Lada Vesta SV Cross Pluton - painting technology
The all-terrain version of the CROSS station wagon Lada Vesta SV also received Pluto colors in its line. The LADA plant reported that new technology will now be used for painting work, as well as higher quality paint and varnish materials. This is not only new paint, but also a special cataphoretic primer, which allows you to strengthen the adhesion of the enamel to the body and maintain it throughout the entire service life of the car. In particular, AvtoVAZ states that the enamel is guaranteed to retain its properties for at least 6 years from the date of painting.
The thickness of the paintwork will also increase. On average, the thickness of the paint layer on body parts will be 125-135 microns. This is almost a third more than the paint thickness of competing models - Kia Rio, Hyundai Solaris and Volkswagen Polo. I hope that this will solve the problem of the formation of saffron milk caps and corrosion in the most unpredictable places, as was the case on previous models - Grant, Priora, Kalina...
In addition to the Lada Vesta SV in Pluto color, the new product can be purchased in other colors. Apart from Pluto, there are 9 colors of Vesta SV:
Mars, Carnelian, Glacial, Angkor, Carthage, Blues, Phantom, Black Pearl and Platinum. It is possible that in the future AvtoVAZ will offer consumers other color shades.
↑ Coloring features
Dark brown Vesta has a guarantee from the manufacturer for anti-corrosion resistance for 72 months. The addition of aluminum powder to the paint turns ordinary enamel into a metallic, reflective one. This color has better resistance to temperature changes, moisture, and exposure to polluted air. The aesthetic and operational characteristics of painting have a solid basis in the form of a phosphate film applied to the metal body. The physicochemical property of 3-ion phosphate is the absence of an oxidation reaction, which is the beginning of rust.
The electroplating method combines metal and phosphate ions into a molecule. Breaking of molecular bonds is possible with a scratch from an impact. Under the influence of sun, frost and water, they retain their stability.
The technological chain of galvanizing the Vesta body consists of three stages:
- preparatory;
- main;
- final.
Preparation consists of cleaning metal parts from traces of corrosion and smoothing out roughness. This is followed by degreasing. The process is carried out either by sprinkling in pickling chambers, or by immersion in a bath with a degreasing solution.
The cathophoresis procedure is carried out in a galvanic bath. The car body is placed in the primer solution. Metal parts of the car are connected to the negative pole of a direct or alternating current source, as a result of which anions, ions with a negative charge, are formed on their surface. In the primer solution, under the influence of the positive pole, positive phosphate ions are formed. Due to ionic attraction, adhesion of anions and cations occurs.

There are not many photos of the Lada Vesta SV in Pluto color on the Internet yet. We have selected the best of them and share with you:
Practicality of color Pluto Lada Vesta SV Cross
The color is discreet but very practical. This is not a very easily soiled shade, so dirt will be least noticeable on it in bad weather. And even after a not-so-high-quality wash, the Lada Vesta SV Pluto will not lose its external luster.
As for shallow scratches and paint chips, they will not be so noticeable on the Pluto color. Still, this is what makes gray shades so good. This is such a gray mouse in traffic. Perfect for the consumer who doesn’t want to stand out from the crowd, but at the same time wants to maintain his individuality and solidity.
↑ Advantages and disadvantages of agnkor color
Technical characteristics of Lada Vesta Cross St.
Angkor is a Buddhist temple in Cambodia. The manufacturer who chose this name for the color of the car wanted the car of this color to have a solemn and noble appearance.
The unusual colors are intended for reserved people who have a unique view of life’s problems and relationships with people. Children intuitively feel this. They are attracted to Angkor not only by its resemblance to their favorite sweet, but also by its inner relaxedness under the guise of impeccable consistency.
Metallic brown takes on a golden hue in the sun. But even in cloudy weather it catches the slightest glare of the sun and gives reflection.
The disadvantage of this color is its increased sensitivity to any dirt. If the car was parked in the rain, then the dried drops will be noticeable at close range. To make a car look impressive, it needs to be washed and wiped more often than cars of other colors.
Attention! Those who do not have the time or desire to care for the car should not purchase Vesta in this tone. She will lose her attractiveness and will not please her owner with her appearance.
Lada Vesta SV Cross Pluto reviews
Ivan Nikolaevich, Yekaterinburg.
We took the Vesta station wagon SV Cross Pluton last year. Everyone likes the car. Dust and dirt are not very noticeable on this color. Therefore, the car can be washed less often. I often go to the dacha, where there is a section of a narrow road with bushes. Often you have to pass oncoming cars, literally scraping one side along protruding branches. The resulting scratches are not very noticeable. I bought polish in a store for 200 rubles, wiped it with a sponge and hid the defects.
Parents gave West a SV AMT in the color pluto. Very pleased with the purchase. I like the color. He is not boring as he might seem at first glance. But in order for the car to sparkle with all its colors, the standard casting had to be replaced with a new one. With white alloy wheels on the Lada Vesta, the pluton began to look more advantageous!
Ekaterina, Perm.
We first ordered a Vesta St in Carthage color, but after 2 weeks of waiting, the managers from the showroom said that the car would only be available in a month and a half. We refused the order and bought what was in stock - Vesta in the color pluto. I can’t say that I was pleased with the color, since we initially expected a different color. But this pluto color, inconspicuous at first glance, is not so bad. So far, the car attracts the attention of passers-by and makes them turn around on the street...
