AvtoVAZ spoke about the features of the gearbox for the Lada Azimut crossover

Engineers tested one of the Lada Azimut transmissions – a six-speed manual. Currently, such a transmission is used on the Lada Vesta and Lada Iskra models. It is important that the new product will receive a “traction” version of the unit – with a 4.3:1 final drive: a similar option is used on the Lada Iskra SW Cross cross-wagon.

The box was tested at extremely low temperatures (down to -40 ° C), and also tested for dynamic strength and resistance to shock loads.

About a dozen gearboxes went through special bench tests. Currently, as the press service of the auto giant notes, the refinement of the transmission has reached the finishing stage.

AvtoVAZ receives a six-speed manual transmission from its eastern partner, which ships the assembled units to the Russian company, which are then installed on Lada cars.

Chery Tiggo has covered 425 thousand km without engine overhaul. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has set a time frame for when cameras will start recording cars without compulsory motor insurance. A “grand limousine” will appear in the Mercedes-Maybach range.

The day before, AvtoVAZ opened sales of the 147-horsepower Lada Vesta Sport. The updated 1.8 EVO engine develops 147 hp. — in the previous generation, the engine produced 145 hp.

The engine is distinguished by sports camshafts, an original cold intake system, an exhaust with an increased diameter and original controller firmware.
