Sedans in different configurations were photographed on tow trucks. One vehicle suffered a side impact, the other a 100% overlap frontal impact. On both Lada Iskras there are sheets of paper with the inscription “NAMI Test Center 2024”.

We tell you everything that is known about the new Lada Iskra
Judging by the pictures, the base Lada Iskra survived a side impact: such a car will have unpainted door handles, simple stamped wheels and mirrors that do not match the body color. The white prototype is richer: it has door handles and mirrors in body color and alloy wheels. Curtain airbags were not expected on the Iskra, and the angle is such that it is impossible to assess the operation of the airbags.
