All the disadvantages of Lada Largus Cross 2018-2019 - reviews from owners (disadvantages and advantages)

The Volzhsky Automobile Plant has recently begun to actively produce new models and generations. An example is the Lada Largus Cross 2021 in a new body, configuration and price, a photo of which can be found in the article in question, presented by a modern SUV. This model has quite a lot of features, but it is worth considering that the car comes exclusively in two trim levels; the most affordable offer will cost 674,000 rubles. Let's consider the offer of the domestic manufacturer in more detail.

Updated version from Russia

Specifications

Despite the fact that many people classify the car in question as an SUV, it is still a large station wagon with large clearance. The body dimensions are as follows:

• The length was 4,470 mm. Note that this length is quite enough to install a third row.
• The width was 1,756 mm.
• Vehicle height 1,682 mm.
• The wheelbase is an impressive 2,905 mm.

In addition, let’s pay attention to the ground clearance – it was 170 mm. Comfortable full-fledged SUVs have ground clearance of approximately 200 mm. As for the volume of the luggage compartment, it can vary from 135 to 2350 liters. Note that the figure of 135 liters is typical for the version with 7 seats, but when folding the rear row, the volume can be significantly increased.

Depending on the configuration, the curb weight is 1,330 – 1,370 kg. The load capacity is relatively low, within the limit of 500 kg. The braking system is a combination of disc and drum design. Let us note that recently there has been a tendency to abandon drum structures, since they are significantly inferior to disk ones in terms of reliability and ease of maintenance. The front suspension is independent spring, the rear suspension is semi-independent spring. Hydraulic telescopic shock absorbers were installed at the rear. It is recommended to fill with AI-95; the fuel tank has a displacement of 50 liters.

Exterior

Despite investing quite a lot of money in the development of new exterior designs, the design of the model in question still remains unattractive. Let's call its features the following points:

• There is a massive plastic protection along the perimeter, which should protect the body from chips. While driving, gravel and various debris can bounce off the tires, which leads to damage to the paintwork.
• The front optics are small in size; old technology is used in their manufacture. Unfortunately, the domestic manufacturer is only partially converting its cars to diode optics.
• The front bumper is plastic and has niches for fog lights. An air intake was made at the bottom.
• The radiator grille has the usual rectangular shape with beveled edges, there is a plastic plate in the center and a manufacturer's badge is placed.
• The body itself resembles a raised station wagon, with rectangular side windows.
• The rear doors have two hinged doors. Moreover, even in the expensive configuration there is no special protective cover for the spare wheel.
• The rear bumper is also made of plastic. At the same time, the designers created a type of body protection.
• The taillights were placed on stands. They have a rather complex design, but are still produced without the use of diode technology.

The Lada Largus Cross 2021 looks quite simple and is a representative of the budget class.

Manufacturers' forecasts

The 2021 models will be equipped with a number of modern equipment that will make your stay in the car more comfortable:

• heated seats;
• air conditioning system;
• audio system in accordance with the latest technologies;
• electric windows.

At the request of the car owner, the model can additionally be equipped with fog lights and an airbag for the passenger. I would also like the manufacturers of the Lada Largus Cross to equip the car with all-wheel drive.

This is all in the near future, but for now, to satisfy your interest, you can look at photos of the future Largus model on the Internet.

Interior of LADA Largus Cross 2021

The car has a rather simple interior, which is associated with the low cost of even a fairly equipped configuration. Let's call it features:

• The steering wheel has three spokes. Unfortunately, even the expensive equipment does not have an option with control units.
• The instrument panel is represented by a combination of two round indicators, between which a small analog display is placed.
• The center console has two deflectors, under which the standard radio is placed. Next there are several keys for controlling the main functions and three regulators responsible for the operation of the stove and air conditioner.
• All panels are made using soft plastic.
• There is no high tunnel or armrest between the front seats, which you should be prepared for. The seat upholstery is presented in a combination of several colors, simulating lateral support.
• The second row is represented by a three-seater sofa with headrests. The third seat is full, there is no armrest to separate the side seats. On the landing side, the seat is separate, since when it is reclined, access to the third row is provided. The third row has two separate seats that can be removed if necessary.

The interior looks very simple, which is what you would expect from this car.

Comparison of versions

The car has only three trim levels: Standard, Norma, Luxe. But these trim levels, with the exception of the very first, come in addition to three packages: Climat, Comfort, Prestige. The simplest Standard package is equipped with safety systems: ABS and EBD, these systems are supported by a driver airbag, Isofix child seat mounts, and the Era-Glonass emergency warning system (more recently, this system is required for installation on all cars that drive on the territory of the Russian Federation), child locks of the rear doors (allow you to block the interior door handles when the outside ones are active).

Among the functions that increase comfort and ease of control, there is a steering wheel height adjustment, a 12-volt power socket, a cabin air filter, audio preparation, roof rails and a full-fledged spare wheel. There is no add-on package available for this configuration. The second version on the list is Norma, which adds to the list of equipment, including power steering, a 60:40 folding rear seat, central locking, and front electric windows. The appearance is complemented by moldings around the perimeter of the body and bumpers in body color. There are also two option packages to choose from. The first is a simpler Climat package, it includes heated front seats and air conditioning, the second is a slightly richer Comfort package, it adds a shelf in the ceiling above the luggage compartment, and a floor covering the trunk, an audio system with two speakers (supports Bluetooth protocol, and also has USB and AUX ports).

Photos of the interior of Lada Largus 2021 (2017)

The most expensive Luxe package is equipped with a front passenger airbag, also has: an on-board computer, central locking with remote control, rear electric windows, electrically adjustable and heated rear-view mirrors, rear parking sensors, and a driver's seat with lumbar and height adjustment, the audio system receives two additional dynamics. But even the most expensive trim level has its own Prestige package of additional equipment; this package provides: leather steering wheel trim and alloy wheels with a diameter of 15 inches. The Largus Cross version is equipped with only one trim level: Luxe and no optional packages are available to it. But it has access to alloy wheels of a larger diameter and different tires, due to which it becomes even taller.

Options and prices of Lada Largus Cross 2021 in a new body

As previously noted, you can purchase the Lada Largus 2021 Cross version in two equipment options:

Luxe 5 seats

The main engine is a 1.6-liter gasoline power unit, which is paired with a manual transmission. Despite the fact that representatives of the automaker indicate the model’s high cross-country ability, only the front wheels drive, which does not allow the car to be called a real SUV. With a relatively low fuel consumption of 9.0 liters per hundred, the model is capable of accelerating to the first hundred in 13.5 seconds. The cost of this offer is 674,000 rubles. The manual transmission has 5 gear shift stages.

Additional options include airbags and fog lights. In addition, an ABS system and an on-board computer are installed, the steering wheel has a leather braid. In order to increase the transmitted force, a hydraulic booster is installed. The steering column can be adjusted in height. The air supply system has a filter. All door locks have locks combined into one system. The rear and front windows are controlled via electrical accessories. The front seats have heated seats. Despite the relatively small size of the body, parking the car is quite simple due to the installed parking sensors.

Equipment

In all respects, with the exception of ground clearance, the cars are absolutely identical. This model, regardless of what brand it is produced under, was designed on the B0 platform. Dimensions are equal to L-W-H: 4470-1750-1670 mm. The ground clearance varies for the regular version: 175 mm when unloaded, 150 mm when loaded; for the Cross version the ground clearance is 195 mm. The trunk volume is also very variable, from 135 liters in the seven-seater version with the seats folded down. Then 560 in a five-seater, and 2350 liters, although only with two seats. The fuel tank volume for gasoline versions is 50 liters and the gas tank volume is 90 liters for CNG versions.

The range of engines is represented by both Renault and AvtoVAZ engines. The weakest in the range is the French-developed inline four, factory code K7M. The volume of this engine, like other Largus engines, is 1.6 liters. Power is around 82 horsepower at 5500 rpm and torque of about 124 Newton meters. Fuel consumption in the combined cycle is 9.3 liters, in the city 12.3, on the highway 7.5.

The second most powerful engine is a Russian one with the same volume and number of cylinders. The VAZ engine code is 11189, essentially the same K7M, only with slightly different attachments and modified engine mounts. Its power has increased to 87 horsepower, and torque to 140 Newton meters.

The third engine is the 1.6 installed on Megan and Logan with sixteen valves and a power of 102 horsepower at 5750 rpm and 148 Newton meters at 3750 rpm. The code for this motor is K4M. Fuel consumption: about 9 liters in the city and 7 on the highway.

The fourth power plant is the VAZ-21129, essentially the same engine as was installed on the Priora, only it complies with Euro-6 emission standards. Power is 106 horsepower at 5800 rpm, torque is 148 Nm at 4200 rpm. The consumption of such an engine in the city is about 11 liters, on the highway 6.4. In the combined cycle, consumption fluctuates between 7-8 liters per hundred. The chassis is presented with an independent McPherson-type suspension with anti-roll bar at the front. At the rear there is a U-shaped beam with programmable deformation zones. The brakes are disc at the front, drum at the rear. Steering mechanism, rack and pinion, at extra cost or in more expensive trim levels with power steering.

Main competitors

The Russian automaker is placing its main emphasis on reducing the cost of its cars so that they look more competitive against the background of offers from foreign automakers. If we consider the main competitors of this car, we can say that many have a higher cost even in the basic configuration. Let's take an example:

Almost all of the cars listed above cost more than 1,000,000 rubles in their basic configuration, which makes them less attractive to those looking for a budget offer. However, we should not forget that the Lada has almost all modern options, the build quality is always not high, and the exterior and interior design has remained almost the same as several years ago. Therefore, you should still consider the offers of your main competitors.

New Lada Largus Cross 2021 model year with photos and prices

Dacia Logan MCV was released back in 2006. Over the course of 13 years, the Franco-Romanian station wagon managed to be updated several times and assemble a good collection of modifications. The same cannot be said about its double, Lada Largus. Yes, station wagons are not held in high esteem here and are bought much less often than classic sedans or hatches. Apparently, this explains the inertia of AvtoVAZ regarding the new Lada Largus Cross 2021 model year.

Description of appearance

The appearance of the Lada Largus Cross became quite a noisy event. The advertisement loudly and beautifully described the car in a positive light, but in the end the public accepted this model with conflicting opinions. After all, having assessed the real possibilities, not only the positive aspects of modernization became noticeable, the test drive also revealed its shortcomings.

As it turned out, as a new restyling, the consumer was offered additional bumper covers made of plastic, as well as additional design of wheel arches and sills made of a similar material. But the plastic parts did not give the car the intended SUV look. In addition to this, the ground clearance has increased, now reaching 17 cm.

The suspension has also undergone some changes in accordance with the declared qualities of the crossover. However, the Lada Largus is unlikely to be able to conquer real off-road conditions, but for a joint family trip to a country house or to nature, this is an ideal option.

The basic configuration includes wheels with a diameter of 16 inches. In general, the appearance of the Largus Cross has much in common with the Dacia Logan MCV. A few differences between Lada and its French-Romanian “brother” are:

• modified radiator grille;
• The shape of the bumpers is different from the previous version.

The impressive volumes of the rear of the car, together with the trunk, visually resemble a minibus. So this option is suitable for traveling with the whole family or a large group, as well as for transporting not too large cargo.

The roof does not have any design features. The optics of a domestic car are even slightly rustic; the door fittings are no exception. Based on all of the above, there is only one conclusion - Largus is not particularly elegant or original, although this property is not necessary for an SUV. There is a certain kind of roughness in its design.

What's new in 2021 for Lada Largus Cross

Compared to last year, 2021, there are no external changes.

Probably, AvtoVAZ believes that it is enough to release a cross-version of the station wagon to maintain popularity and demand. In some ways they are right.

1. Firstly, no one will re-equip the assembly line for the Largus facelift. It is expensive .
2. Secondly, those who want to buy a Lada Largus Cross in 2019 will buy it anyway. Because they buy it not for its x-design, but for its thriftiness .
3. And thirdly, VAZ also has its own cross-projects that need to be promoted, and not lure customers to the side of the cheaper Largus. However, back in 2016 an x-shaped front end was presented at the exhibition , and around the same time it was promised to be put on sale. But they didn’t launch and probably won’t launch again. And therefore, Largus Cross is the most advanced model of the French-Romanian-Russian station wagon in retro design of the early 2000s.

On gas? For the first time in 2021!

Obviously, Largus with LPG can only be a five-seater, because the gas cylinder will be located exactly in the place of the third row of seats.

We already know the grants that run on methane. Now it's Largus Cross's turn.

In the first half of 2021, it is planned to master the production of elevated station wagons that can run on both gasoline and methane. The fueled vehicle will have a CNG badge. The car will be assembled in Tolyatti at the facilities of the ATS enterprise, where the production of Vesta CNG bit-fuel has also been established.

Why methane? It is very simple, it is inexpensive, relatively harmless, and for low-power equipment such as Vesta and Largus, it is quite suitable as an alternative to gasoline. They say that using methane allows you to save 3 times , as well as increase engine life.

The resource issue is debatable, but as far as fuel costs are concerned, it’s absolutely true . Another good thing about the bi-fuel Largus is that in its trunk (if we are talking about the five-seater version) a 90-liter gas cylinder does not make any difference at all, since it is located directly behind the rear seats.

Engine

Reviews from the owners of Lada Largus Cross can tell a lot of interesting things about him and his work. Car enthusiasts know that under the hood of this pseudo-off-road station wagon there is a 1.6-liter 105-horsepower engine. Manufacturers presented it as a unit with excellent traction at low speeds.

Reviews from Lada Largus Cross owners make it clear that the engine for such a car is rather weak. At first, when running in a new car, it seriously “slows down”. And it takes a lot of kilometers for it to start working as expected. About 5000, according to the comments. At first, the dynamics will be greatly missed. Many believe that for a car with such a weight (1300 kg), a more powerful engine should be developed, and at least a 2-liter one.

However, in contrast to such recommendations, there are comments from other owners. Which claim that for a price of 650-700 thousand rubles. the engine is not bad. The Duster, which is considered by many to be a conditional alternative to the Cross, has a 2-liter engine, but it also costs about a million. And if you want dynamics, then you should buy a more expensive car, and with more “horses”. The Lada Largus Cross has a slightly different purpose.

How is Cross-Largus different from non-cross?

On the fifth door of the pseudo-all-terrain version there is an additional CROSS nameplate.

We have already seen seven-seater saloons in Largus and this is not a new thing. Since 2012, the station wagon can be purchased in both a seven-seater and a classic five-seater version. Seven-seater Largus, by the way, are sold so-so.

The interior of the crossover version looks a little more interesting due to the gray inserts on the front console and additional stitching on the seat upholstery.

Their share is only 18% of station wagon sales last year. This is explained by the insultingly small trunk for a station wagon, only 135 liters . But in the five-seater version, as much as 560 liters of cargo .

Largus Cross also has a low loading height and a high cargo compartment ceiling, so for lack of money, you can consider it as an alternative to the French “pies” - Partner, Kangoo, Expert, but Largus is clearly not comparable to a VW Caddy.

Well, the main difference from a regular station wagon is the 170 mm ground clearance (145 mm on the usual) and a plastic body kit around the perimeter made of unpainted ABS. And the plastic molding along the doors, where would we be without it? Otherwise, the Largus Cross completely replicates the design of a regular seven- or five-seater station wagon. Only car prices have risen slightly compared to last year .

The difference in ground clearance between a regular station wagon and Largus with the Cross prefix is ​​visible to the naked eye.

Options: higher ground clearance, higher prices

There was still no radical increase in price, since nothing technically changed in the car.

The simplest configuration of a five-seater elevated Largus will cost a business buyer 741 thousand rubles . A bit expensive? Of course, for this money you can buy any car from this list in its basic configuration.

You shouldn’t expect that for this money you will become an off-road conqueror, you will just have access to a slightly deeper track.

Competitors

• Lada Granta in liftback is sold for 440 thousand rubles .
• A station wagon Grant costs 460 thousand rubles in the database.
• about 500 thousand rubles .
• Renault Logan/Sandero will cost on average about 580–600 thousand rubles .
• Ravon Nexia R3 , have you heard of this? It is sold for 490,000 rubles .
• Large and practical, however, the Chinese Geely Emgrand 7 will sell for just over 600 thousand rubles .
• Nissan Almera Classic costs around 800 thousand rubles .

Yes, these are not station wagons, but most of these cars, not counting the Grants and Nivas, are modern and worthy ways to spend half a million or a little more on a new car. And if we think that Largus is well equipped for its 740 thousand, most likely we will be disappointed.

Design

Lada Largus Cross 2021 is a new model of the Russian automaker. The car was liked by many car enthusiasts - because of its spaciousness (a suitable option for family outings and cargo transportation), as well as because of its budget (affordable for the middle class). In appearance, the following modifications should be noted: plastic linings on the wheel arches, along the sills and on the bumpers; light alloy wheels – 16 dm; increased ground clearance; The suspensions were strengthened.

Exterior

The new Lada Largus Cross looks very simple and, at the same time, solid and strict, in accordance with EURO 5 standards. Lada Largus Cross 7 (seats seven people) and 5 (five) is available in van, minivan and station wagon bodies - each option with its own characteristics. The picture of the cross (photo Lada Largus) shows that this is a modern off-road vehicle.

The following updates were carried out as a “tuning” for the Lada Largus Cross:

• Massive plastic protection around the entire perimeter of the car.
• Plastic x-shaped front bumper with niches for fog lights and built-in air carriers.
• False radiator grille in X-Ray style.
• Enlarged wheel arches.
• The main optics are slightly elongated at an upward angle.
• Exterior mirrors have been enlarged.
• Ground clearance increased by 30 mm.
• The doors have elegant protective plastic linings.
• The rear optics are placed on stands.

Interior

The interior of the Lada Largus Cross is simple, some of the features include:

• Three-spoke steering wheel without additional controls.
• The instrument panel consists of two circles of indicators, with a monitor located between them.
• A center console with two vents (underneath is the factory audio system), buttons and control levers.

All panels of the newest Lada Largus Cross 2021 are made of soft plastic, the upholstery is two-tone, which is much nicer than solid gray shades.

The interior decoration of the Lada Largus Cross in the photo looks rich and presentable.

Body

The first, and perhaps the only thing that distinguishes the model with the Cross prefix from its predecessors is the exterior. When Logan was adapted to Russian conditions, they did not forget about the appearance; as a result, Largus became more elegant and acquired the features of a modern car. The Cross went further, and thanks to the black matte door sills and arches, as well as bumpers with false lips, made in the same style, the station wagon acquired the appearance of an SUV. It’s also worth mentioning that alloy wheels are installed even in stock trim levels, while Largus can only get them if they are fully loaded with the Prestige prefix. Based on the body layout, there are 2 types of Largus Cross:

1. Five-seater station wagon.
2. Seven-seater station wagon.

In terms of hardware, the Cross model is no different from ordinary Largus, and the paint is of exactly the same quality, which means it is difficult to rust. However, overlays on arches and sills will only facilitate this process, since moisture will accumulate under them at any opportunity. The paintwork is fragile and susceptible to chips, which is why after several kilometers of driving along the highway a scattering of white dots will appear on the hood. What makes Largus Cross different from its predecessors is the layer of anti-corrosion substance that covers the entire bottom; it has grown 1.5 times. The rustiest place in a car after a short mileage will be the muffler - this is a common disease among such cars.

Options and prices

There are two configurations of the Lada Largus Cross and the price for them depends on the equipment and type of power unit. The updated Lada Largus Cross 2019 is budget, with front-wheel drive. The configurations and prices of the Lada Largus Cross are visible in the photo - each version of the model is attractive in its own way.

Lada Largus cross for 5 seats costs 674,000 rubles. Equipped with a 1.6 liter engine. and a five-speed manual transmission. Lada Largus Cross 5 has the following options:

• Airbags, power steering, adjustable steering column, leather weaving on the steering wheel rim.
• Fog lights, air filter, door moldings.
• ABS system, on-board computer, parking sensors.
• Locking system, electric windows.
• Heated front seats and mirrors, air conditioning.
• Standard audio center with AUX and USB connectors.

The Lada Largus Cross version for 7 seats has two additional seats in the third row and is priced at RUB 699,000. True, access to the third row is not very convenient, since the doors are of a template format - even if you recline the second row seat. Sports elements have been added to the interior.

The Lada Largus Cross station wagon has the following main options: Heated exterior mirrors and windshield, climate control, multimedia, foglights with increased power, all heated seats, power accessories.

Optionally, the installation of ERA-GLONASS (emergency notification) is available for an additional payment of 6,000 rubles, as well as the color of the car body.

All colors of the Lada Largus Cross 2021 are shown in the photo below.

Owner reviews

Today Largus Cross has very mixed reviews from its owners. Depending on the purpose of the acquisition, opinions were also divided. Naturally, this is far from a racing car, but for work trips to the country with the appropriate equipment, some materials, things, etc., it is quite a decent vehicle.

Advantages of the Lada Largus Cross car:

• special capacity;
• improved maneuverability;
• practicality in use, adjustable driver's seat;
• a trunk with a double-leaf door, which simplifies the loading of large cargo;
• increased ground clearance;
• more reliable and durable design;
• It's easy to find spare parts for cars.

Flaws:

• lack of different engine variations;
• low power (105 hp) for confidence while traveling in any terrain;
• inability to enter a turn at high speed due to the center of gravity;
• inconvenient location of the spare wheel (under the bottom);
• Not a good view of the rear view mirrors.

It is difficult to say a clear opinion about this car. It all depends rather on the expectations that the future owner places on it when purchasing it.

Reviews and test drive

Critics' reviews of the Lada Largus Cross (106L) 2021 agree: this model undoubtedly has a chance to become the most popular road vehicle in the Russian Federation. This is facilitated by ease of operation, inexpensive maintenance, ease of control, maneuverability and, of course, good maneuverability.

About the Lada Largus Cross, reviews from car enthusiasts are also filled with an optimistic forecast (despite the fact that the car is not equipped with all modern options, the build quality is not always the best and the design has remained virtually unchanged): this car will be a good purchase for any segment of the population.

According to reviews from owners, the Lada Largus Cross 2021 scored 3.8 points in terms of reliability, but it is advisable to increase the level of comfort.

• The dynamics are let down, the sound insulation is rather weak and the engine itself is very noisy.
• The design of the seats is like cotton wool, weak profile support, a bit cramped in the back rows.
• The build quality is not very good - the joining of the gaps is not ideal.
• Glass rattles and doors slam, but don’t close.
• The gearbox vibrates and twitches when the load on the engine increases.

• Small gear ratio – at a speed of 80/90, economical fuel consumption.
• The interior is quite roomy and has good visibility.
• Good energy-intensive suspension, good load capacity.
• Compact size – no problems with parking.
• The steering wheel is obedient, the rolls are not excessive, the ground clearance is high.
• Large luggage compartment, transformation in the cabin, satisfactory equipment.
• Price and quality are optimally matched.

Watching the video of the Lada Largus Cross 2021 will help you visually evaluate all the “delights” and disadvantages.

Behavior on the road

It is impossible not to note this nuance when talking about the Largus Cross station wagon. Owner reviews list all the pros and cons in this regard in detail.

The car does not shake on the road, the ride is not bad, and it steers obediently. It rides perfectly on poor surfaces, “absorbing” a lot of unevenness. And all thanks to the improved, redesigned suspension. They say that the regular Lada Largus behaves worse on the road. Among the disadvantages, motorists include the poor placement of the rear wheels. Their developers have placed them as close as possible to the end of the body, which leads to collisions with curbs when turning. Also, many people do not like the checkpoint. In general, it does not cause any inconvenience, with the exception of the short fifth gear. At a speed of 100 km/h it shows more than 3000 rpm. If you accelerate to 120 km/h, the engine begins to roar, which causes some discomfort.

In general, sound insulation leaves much to be desired. The cabin becomes especially noisy at high speeds. But, again, in comparison with Granta, the sound insulation is on par.
