Lada granta: reviews and description of vehicle

Sales of the new model of the car Lada granta of the company VAZ started in 2011. The novelty has replaced the classical seven and the failed Kalina, having caused an agiotage demand from buyers.

Description and reviews of Lada Granta

The new car is made on the basis of the Lada Kalina sedan with a modified front and rear parts. As a result, the car became a little longer. In front there are original rectangular headlights and fog lights, as well as a falshradiator grille with a horizontal bar formed under the chrome. In front of the Lada Grant (reviews of owners confirm this fact) is a little boring and can not boast of originality and originality. Behind the car is similar to the French budgetary Logan.

The sedan has a high stern with a large luggage compartment, the designers tried to do this by smoothly transferring the luggage compartment into the aerodynamic bumper. Rear lighting is quite attractive, however, in rainy weather it fogs up.

Lada granta: reviews and interior design

The buyers of the car say that the salon attracts with its simplicity, but in comparison with Kalina everything is done much better and more pleasantly. The plastic of the doors is harsh, but it does not ring. In general, all the interior elements are made neatly with small even gaps. Front seats are flat, there is no lateral support and a weakly stuffed pillow. In front of the driver is a three-spoke chubby steering wheel, which is adjustable in the Lux and Norm trim levels, followed by the instruments. The information on the tachometer and speedometer is easy to read, which can not be said about the on-board computer readings.

On the back row of seats with ease are placed two passengers, but the third one will make everyone feel uncomfortable. The driver can easily accommodate a tall man, and his knees will not rest on the back, and the feet can be comfortably put, which is an undoubted plus of the Lada granta. Reviews indicate the lack of pylovnikov in the rear seats, but they can add up, and increasing the rather big trunk. The car salon has many different shelves, niches, coasters, which can not but rejoice.

Well done in the car noise and sound insulation, the novelty is much quieter than its older brothers, but there is still something to improve.

Lada granta: reviews and technical parameters

The new car is equipped with a gasoline engine (1.6) with a five-speed manual or 4-automatic Japanese transmission. The car shows a good engine thrust, accelerating to 100 km per hour in just over 11 seconds. Moving with a maximum speed of 170 km per hour, the average flow will be 7 and a half liters of gasoline. The new Lada became more manageable thanks to the installation of the electric booster, the steering wheel became sharper, and a real driver and steering connection arose.

On a good hard-surfaced road Lada Grant rides predictably and clearly, there are small uncritical rolls on bends. Thanks to the installation of wheels with negative camber angles and positive convergence that can not be adjusted during operation, the car better maintains the trajectory and becomes more stable.

Advantage of Lada cars in their soft suspension with high energy intensity, which is practically indifferent to potholes and pits. Acoustic comfort as when driving along a country road, and along the road is satisfactory.

In general, there are good impressions of driving by car Lada granta, drivers' reviews confirm this. I would like to hope that the machine will not be spoiled by the conveyor and will not fail the quality of the components. The fly of tar was the fact that the price for a car of this class of domestic manufacturer is quite high.
