AvtoVAZ opened when Niva says goodbye to the motor from the “Lada”

At the Kazan Expo Truck exhibition, Maxim Sokolov told Motor that in 2025 an eight -valve engine 1.8 would supplant a classic “atmospheric” with a volume of 1.7 liters. In the second half of the year, the new unit will receive Lada Niva Travel, and by the end of the year – the usual Niva Legend. Both SUVs will be equipped with a 1.8-liter engine, which is created on the basis of 1.8 EVO from Vesta.

The head of AvtoVAZ added that the transition to a new engine will entail changes in the transmission: the classic “Niva” will receive a handout with one lever, as on an SUV with a sport prefix. On the NIVA family “Atmospheric” 1.8 will develop 90 horsepower: the characteristics will be selected so that the unit gives out more torque at low speeds.

Maxim Sokolov also announced the return of the airbag to Lada Niva Legend. The system will return this year: at the first stage, the airbeg will be placed in the sidewall of the driver’s seat, and later the airbag will be installed according to the classical scheme – in the center of the steering wheel.

For 2025, Lada Niva Sport debut with a 1.8 -liter volume is scheduled for 2025. The most powerful unit will be offered for the Silk Way Edition line. It is expected that the most dynamic SUV will develop 144 horsepower.
