By the way, the warranty on the educational Granta is quite standard – 3 year or 100,000 kilometers. The novelty was a perfectly reasonable addition to an extensive lineup of special LADA.
Naturally, the training of LADA Granta equipped with all the provisions of the special features: the labels "Student", additional internal mirror for the instructor and, most importantly, a duplicate set of pedals brake and clutch (for versions with manual gearbox) or brake pedal (for models with automatic and robotized transmissions). Surcharge for additional equipment of the car is quite reasonable ₽28 thousand
For driving schools the choice of academic versions of LADA Granta attractive because the car is fully certified and does not require any modifications and amendments to the TCP. In addition, the node backup pedals is actuated by means of a metal shaft that provides additional reliability compared to cable driven, and not require adjustment.
