"Priora" still leaves the conveyor

16 July 2018

The factory welded the last bodywork

Over the past few months "prior" has been one of the main characters of the Russian automotive media. First, in may it reported that "AVTOVAZ" will stop the production of "priors" in July. And everything seems to have become accustomed to the idea that the budget of the Russian sedan will soon become part of history, but last week, the world got the news that in the basis of "Rosstandart" there is a new type approval vehicles (cu Tr) made out to "Priority". Supposedly the manufacturer has upgraded the fuel system and regulated the use of gasoline AI-92 (before the tank could fill only 95 octane). The release was extended to 6 December 2019.

And now in this complicated case finally you can put the point: "Priority" is still removed from production. According to the information portal drom.ru, the publication of the new cu Tr was a banal mistake: that this it date (6 December 2019) delivered "by inertia". Now "AVTOVAZ" and the certification body (satr-Fund with US) thinking about how to fix this mistake.

The last body "priors" was brewed last Friday, July 13. It was symbolically decorated with balls (someone must have let a tear: all cars in this family long remained the stronghold of the largest domestic automobile enterprise). It is expected that final Assembly of the last instances will take place this week.

In total in July from the gates of "AVTOVAZ" should go 650 "Prior". For 2018 it was planned to release 7 224 instances of this model. While "prior" is from 424 to 533 400 to 900 rubles, that is was one of the most affordable cars on the market. Anyone wishing to buy the latest machine should hurry.
