The brand new Lada Vesta will also become “empty”. Details on simplifications

We have repeatedly reported that AvtoVAZ, against the backdrop of a shortage of components, is preparing to release simplified versions of its cars. Now it has become known that the “empty” version of the new Vesta NG will follow Granta and Niva.

According to drom.ru, outwardly it will be a restyled car, but at the same time it will retain the old interior. In addition, the car will receive an 8-valve VAZ 11182 engine, but with a thread in the candle wells M14x1.25 instead of M12x1.25. Such candles are cheaper than Renault candles, and they are produced in Russia.

Vesta NG with this engine has already been built and tested in Izhevsk. In addition, we should expect the transfer of Lada Vesta to Euro-2, the removal of all (possibly, except for the driver’s) airbags and the ERA-GLONASS system. As for ABS and ESP, there is no exact information yet.

The first “anti-crisis” configurations of the new Lada Vesta will go on sale in September 2022. The source writes that even these measures will not allow adding 100% localization of production.
