Lada Vesta SW and SW Cross – official premiere

28 June 2017

AvtoVAZ unveiled the production versions of "Vesta" with a station wagon

The residents published a photo of the Lada Vesta Lada Vesta SW and SW Cross – the usual universal and its "off-road" version, respectively. In Russia, body style "sedan" always puts clients above the status of any of piatigorski, and "universal" is perceived exclusively as a truck. So VAZ designers led by Steve Mattin had to sweat to in the image of Vesta SW to get away from the unpleasant stereotype.

The appearance of "universal" piatigorski Lada Vesta SW really turned out beautiful. The front part is, of course, is the calling card of the series, and the focus attracts forage.

Back front "overwhelmed" forward, sloping roofline more reminiscent of a hatchback than a wagon. Rear optics SW Vesta was borrowed from the sedan, but the rear bumper was made from scratch. In General, the designers were set the challenge of strengthening the rigidity of the body due to the lack of a rear parcel shelf as the sedan. The benefit of the rest of the body structure of the wagon is similar to the sedan.

The universals Lada Vesta SW and its cross-version wide enough the back door, the top is decorated with a very elegant canopy that hovers over the body due to the black insert on the rear strut. Another small but significant element of style is the antenna fin on the roof.

Which side do not look at the five-door news, from any perspective, it is pretty, swift and stylish. This is especially true of Lada Vesta SW Cross. This modification looks rather than as a universal, but rather a crossover. The main features in the design of the body of LADA Vesta SW Cross inherited from the concept Cross Concept.

The lower part of the body encircling panels of unpainted hard plastic and the front and rear bumpers are decorated with inserts in aluminium.

Vesta Cross will be delivered on 17-inch alloy wheels with an original design and a tire size 205/50R17. Depending on configuration, universal Vesta will be equipped with rear disc brakes, which definitely will positively affect the opinions of potential customers. In addition, SW Lada Vesta will be equipped with cabin button unlocking the fuel tank flap and button on tailgate.

Dimensions of Lada Vesta SW: 4410х1764х1512 mm wheelbase – 2635 mm. Geometrical parameters of the SW version of the Lada Vesta Cross at the same base, slightly different: 4424х1785х1532 mm. interestingly enough clearance Vesta SW – 178 mm, and Vesta SW Cross – 203 mm (!). With these parameters the SW Vesta Cross can give the odds to a number of foreign "SUV".

Take, for Suzuki Vitara, which is by 78 mm higher than the Vesta Cross, and for all other parameters including clearance (185 mm) - loses. It turns out, if the Lada Vesta SW Cross a little higher, she would have to compete with all the subcompact SUV, including Lada XRAY.

Interior photos of Vesta in the station wagon yet, but we can assume that the interior will be borrowed from the sedan, but with minor adjustments. As for the engines for Lada Vesta and Lada Vesta SW SW Cross is here practical it is safe to assume that the "base" unit will be a 1.6-liter engine working together with MCP or RCP (AMT-2182).

Second in the list of engines for Vesta should be engine: 1,8 l – those figures we see on the photos. The same amount of units on the sedan produces 122 HP Question remains – what boxes will work with this motor.

In addition, it remains an open issue price Vesta wagon. Residents say that the cost of Vesta we know SW at the time of start of sales is scheduled for September of this year. One can judge with confidence – buy Lada Vesta Lada Vesta SW or SW Cross in Russia many want.
