LADA ISKRA in detail: “living” photos and real road clearance

The Motor managed to get acquainted with the prototype of the novelty and evaluate technical solutions. The representative of AvtoVAZ confirmed that the prototype Lada ISKRA corresponds to serial sedans and is not expected to be exterminated on the exterior. The sedan will appear first on sale: it is waiting for dealers in early summer. After about a month, the ruler will be replenished with a station wagon, in a month they will begin to supply cross-versions.

We tell everything that is known about the new Lada Iskra

The first thing to check was the real Lada ISKRA clearance. The plant claims that the road clearance is 170 millimeters, and this is true: under the protection of the engine “honest” 16-17 centimeters. In front of the front wheels are plastic overlays, at the back there are sprayers, and in the arches, whole felt shells. But the rear arches are not protected so well.

The niches of the rear wheels are not completely closed, there is a recess in front of the wheel where snow or ice can accumulate. Only the zone behind the wheel is completely closed. But the shelters are modern: they are attached to clips and made of soft villous material. An unusual shape of the rear bumper: there is a ledge that is needed so that the wheels do not advocate for the dimensions of the body.

The form of lighting equipment is cunning: the AvtoVAZ representative agreed that the headlights and lanterns would hardly be cheap if you need a replacement. At the same time, the optics are simple: the back is completely halogen, and only daytime running fire and a turnover in front of the LEDs. Lada ISKRA lighting technology does not depend on the configuration. Earlier, an unprecedented function for AvtoVAZ is a mandatory system control system in tires (ITPMS).

Lada ISKRA universals without camouflage: new photos and colors

The head of AvtoVAZ, Maxim Sokolov, promised that the starting price of Lada ISKRA will be 1.2-1.3 million rubles. Production starts on April 19, by the end of May the dealers will saturate with cars, and customers will be able to get acquainted with the novelty in the summer, although the full range of modifications can be in salons only by the fall.
