If the first Priora sedans appeared back in 2007, then Lada Priora hatchback only in 2008. The car has a more dynamic appearance; in addition, folding rear seats and a wide fifth door opening make loading more convenient. In the near future, the model may be replaced by the new Lada Vesta 2015, which will also be produced in a hatchback body.
I would like to remind you that in addition to the usual hatchback, today Avtovaz also produces a three-door version of the Priora coupe . The Coupe is essentially the same hatchback, which has only three doors instead of five. Today this version is sold in three trim levels: “standard”, “norm” and “sport”. Photo of the Lada Priora coupe is just below.
The first small restyling of the five-door hatch took place back in 2011, a more large-scale modernization of the Lada Priora took place in 2013. Under the hood of the car there was a new 16-valve engine with a power of 106 hp with dynamic supercharging. The box has also been slightly modernized, now it has a cable drive. We have improved sound insulation, which is a traditional problem on any VAZ model. Interestingly, the more affordable Priora configurations are equipped with power steering, and the luxury configurations are equipped with electric power steering.
Externally, the new Lada Priora hatchback restyling can be recognized by the new radiator grille, modified bumpers, LEDs in the rear brake lights, and daytime running lights in the headlights. The modernization of the interior was deeper; now instead of cheap plastic they use soft-look material. A multimedia system with a large screen appeared in the center console. Photo of the Lada Priora hatch exterior , just below. We also look at photos of the updated Priora interior . By the way, the seats in the restyled version have become more comfortable, with improved lateral support. In addition to the possibility of installing front airbags, the Lada Priora now has side airbags, not to mention cruise control and stability control.
Overall dimensions of Lada Priora Hatchback
The Priora hatchback has the smallest dimensions in length compared to all other body styles.
Its length is 4240 mm in a 5-door body, and 4210 mm in a 3-door coupe body. The height is an intermediate position between a low sedan and a high station wagon, and is equal to 1435 mm. The width of the hatchback is no different from the same indicators of other bodies, and is 1680 mm. Ground clearance is 165 mm, although it is in the Priora Sport configuration slightly reduced, but in this version this car has already been discontinued. The dimensions of the car are something that needs to be taken into account when purchasing, since the dimensions of parking spaces, garages, turns or entrance arches are not always universal. The height is measured from the extreme point of the front to the extreme point of the rear bumper. The width is measured at the widest point, and the height is measured from the surface of the ground to the highest point of the roof. Roof rails and racks do not fit into the height of the body. Taking this into account, the dimensions of the Priora are as follows:
- The longest body of cars in this family is the sedan. It measures 4350 mm in length. But at the same time it is the lowest - 1420 mm. in height.
- The next longest is the station wagon, with its 4340 mm length. It is the highest in height – 1508 mm.
- The five-door hatchback and three-door coupe are the shortest - 4210 mm. at 1435 mm. in height.
In all four cases, the width of the Priora is the same - 1680 mm
Ground clearance is 165 mm, although in the Priora Sport configuration it is slightly reduced, but this is no longer so important, since this car is no longer produced in this version

Laughter in the topic: Train passenger: - Conductor, is it possible to smoke here? - No! - Then where did these cigarette butts come from? — From those who don’t ask questions.
Published by Admin: at the request of Sergei
Reviews from the car owner: So, the advantages of the Yeti in my opinion (you can look at the previous review) 1) Good handling. And on a slippery road, and on the highway (accelerated to 180 on the speedometer), and in corners, despite the high body and small base.2) Quiet, economical and responsive engine. Let’s just say, in the language of some authors, “the engine allows you to do” all these “Prior Solaris” and other “1.6 tricks on mechanics” in any situation. At the same time, it consumes little gasoline. The engine pulls both from the start and from the move, i.e. for example, moving at a speed of 80-120 km.h. — if you press harder on the gas, you will feel good acceleration, there is always a reserve of traction even with a load. Although the engine is only 1.4, the turbine does its job (200 nm) 3) Sufficient ground clearance. It is sufficient, not redundant, but sufficient. There has never been a situation where there was not enough ground clearance. 4) Strong, compared to the Japanese and Koreans, paintwork. After a year and a half of operation in Moscow conditions, there are practically no abrasions, etc., no chips (I looked and studied carefully during the first spring wash, I didn’t see anything). Even in two places where stones hit, dents appeared, but there were no chips from being hit by a stone! (painted for insurance). The windshield is strong, there were a couple of times where I was hit by stones so hard that the sound of the impact made my heart go to my feet... but nothing... all that remains as a memory are a couple of microscopic dots on the windshield, which I need to look for now, and I’m not sure I’ll find them. 5) Warm. Before buying, I read on the forums that these Volkswagen downsizing engines are cold, and that somewhere they install electric hair dryers. Real operation showed that at idle the engine warms up a little slowly, but already 2 minutes after starting, even in -25 frost, warm air blows from the deflectors, and warms up much faster while driving. Good standard radio (Bolero), excellent sound, works great in any weather, glitch-free sensor that reacts to gloves, no equalizer adjustments (bass-mid-high frequencies), but they are not needed - the sound is excellent for its price, dense elastic bass , ringing high frequencies, excellent detail, many useful settings and easy control logic.6) It has never broken down majorly. And yes, the main thing is that the notorious DSG has never failed, and according to the diagnostic results, it is quite healthy and full of strength, which, you agree, can already be attributed to its advantages (mileage 32,000 km). Doesn't eat oil. Maybe I have this driving style, but a fact is a fact. Although before buying, after reading reviews, I was afraid of the DSG and the small turbo engine (supposedly they are unreliable and eat buckets of oil). 7) Excellent brakes. With a mileage of 32,000 km. You can drive at least another 15,000 km on the original pads. I did not observe the problem described by Autoreview. The meaning of the problem is this: if you suddenly go around an obstacle or if you hit a bump while braking, the wheels release the brakes and the braking distance increases.
Pros and cons of a white car
Trunk volume of Priora hatchback.
Lada Priora hatchback: technical characteristics and features of the model Advantages of painting a Priora white hatchback car:
• Of course, a chic appearance! White color can visually increase volume. Therefore, clean and sparkling in the sun, as if from a picture, the white Priora hatchback always has an impressive and at the same time elegant appearance.
• In dry weather, dust and dirt are much less visible on it than on cars with a dark color. Pollution becomes noticeable only from a close distance, but from a distance the car appears clean. Accordingly, cleaning costs are reduced.
• White color tends to reflect sunlight. This is especially felt in the summer heat. The white Priora hatchback (photo below) heats up much less.
• It is clearly visible on the road, including at night. This most likely determines the statistics of accidents - white cars get into them much less often.
• The purer the white color of your Lada, the less susceptible it will be to fading. In case of repairs and the need for touch-up, it will be much easier to choose a shade that best matches the original one.
• Small scratches and chips are much less noticeable. This is because paint primer is usually white. Therefore, if the scratch is shallow, then it is not visible.
• White Priora hatchback lends itself very well to modernization. Tuning (pictured), which will make your car original, can be done with your own hands.
Trunk volume of Lada Priora sedan in liters technical specifications
Engineers at the Volzhsky Automobile Plant caught the trend, and today the company offers new car owners cars in various body styles
The Lada Priora family of cars also received attention. When buying this model, a person pays attention not only to the attractiveness of this car, but also considers the technical characteristics and nuances in further operation
For example, it is difficult to consider a sedan car for transporting various luggage and cargo. For such purposes, it is recommended to use a station wagon, hatchback or caravan. However, many potential customers are concerned about the trunk capacity of the Lada Priora sedan. Buyers' interest in the size of the luggage compartment is driven by practical and operational considerations.
For reference: Lada Priora is presented on the automotive market in the following body styles:
- station wagon;
- hatchback;
- sedan.
About the trunk of the Lada Priora sedan
Let's look at the features in numbers.
According to the manufacturer, such a characteristic as the trunk volume of the Lada Priora sedan is located between the volume of this compartment - station wagon and hatchback. The technical documentation indicates that the trunk volume of the Priora sedan is 430 liters, which is considered a fairly satisfactory indicator for representatives of this class. From the comfort side, we can safely say that when going on a road trip, you can easily pack a large amount of cargo into the trunk of a sedan without any problems, and this will not affect the comfort of passengers in the rear seats.
If the buyer finds the trunk volume of a sedan insufficient, then compare it with a model of this family in a hatchback body. From the technical documentation it is clear that the trunk volume of the Lada Priora hatchback is less than that of the same car in the sedan version, and is 306 liters. But it is worth considering some nuances:
- large back door. Due to this fact, a larger cargo volume can be placed in the trunk of a car than in a sedan;
- If you fold down the rear seatbacks, the hatchback model increases the luggage space significantly, to approximately 700 liters. But this will affect the number of passengers. In the sedan model, such manipulations are impossible.
In a hatchback Lada Priora, you can even transport a washing machine without any problems, which cannot be transported in the trunk of a sedan. Folding the rear seat backs is not difficult even for a child, but the design of the car will not allow such manipulations to achieve a flat floor in the trunk. Among the disadvantages of this solution, it should be noted that a large space in the luggage compartment in the hatchback is taken up by the wheel arches. However, this does not prevent the car from competing in the ranking of trunk volumes of this family.
Engine
Dimensions of the trunk of the VAZ-2112 in centimeters
The car is equipped with a gasoline engine with a displacement of 1.4 or 1.6 liters. The octane number of gasoline is 95.
The pre-styling Priora was always equipped with the following engines:
- 1.6 liters with a power of 98 hp. Consumption in the city is 9.8 liters per 100 km. Acceleration time to 100 is 11.5 seconds. Maximum speed – 183 km/h. This “baby” produced 98 hp. at 5600 rpm;
- 1.6 liters with 81 hp Consumption in the city is 9.8 liters per 100 km. Acceleration time to 100 is 13.5 seconds. Maximum speed – 172 km/h. This “baby” produced 81 hp. at 5200 rpm;
- 1.6 liters with 87 hp Consumption in the city is 9.8 liters per 100 km. Acceleration time to 100 is 12.5 seconds. Maximum speed – 176 km/h. This “baby” produced 87 hp. at 5100 rpm.
Summary data on Lada Priora (before restyling 2021)
Recommended tire and wheel sizes for Lada Kalina 2 (hatchback and station wagon)
The VAZ 2170 (this is exactly the indexing that Priora received) has an improved interior compared to the “ten”, a 16-valve engine with a volume of 1596 cc. see, and a 5-speed manual transmission in all trim levels (in the first trim levels of the sedan and hatchback with an 80 hp engine, an 8-valve engine was installed).
In mixed driving mode, the Priora has 100 km. it takes from 6.6 to 7.6 liters. fuel outside the city (depending on the configuration), and in the city – 9.8 liters. The new engine allows you to accelerate to 180 km/h, and to “hundreds” in 12 seconds
This property attracts the attention of fans of high-speed racing, because by working on the engine and tuning the car, you can achieve good sports performance
Lada Priora hatchback: technical characteristics and features of the model
Before purchasing any car, the future owner carefully studies the main characteristics. The selection of a vehicle is primarily based on its power, efficiency, and safety.
Data on new modifications of familiar models is very important. For example, for a Lada Priora hatchback, the technical characteristics will indicate the updates received, modifications to the car and advantages over analogues in a different body.
Dimensions and dynamic data of Priora hatchback
The solid hatchback has small but sufficient dimensions: length - 4.21 m, width - 1.68 m, height - 1.43 m. The internal space was reduced due to the small external dimensions, but had minimal impact on the comfort of travel for second-row passengers.
The technical characteristics of the Priora hatchback also had a slight impact on the trunk volume. In the sedan, the luggage compartment volume is 430 liters, and in the hatchback it is 360 liters.
The model is equipped with 1.6 liter petrol engines. The power plant is combined with manual or 5-speed automatic transmissions. Engine power is 87, 98 and 106 hp, the maximum possible speed is 176 (183) km/h. The technical characteristics of the hatchback indicated for the Lada Priora lead to the following fuel consumption in mixed mode: from 6.6 to 7.3 liters. The maximum figure applies to a model with an automatic transmission.
Features of operation of Priora hatchback
It is important to further study the internal features of the model before purchasing a car. For example, the Lada Priora hatchback technical characteristics, which are quite good, have a high-quality immobilizer and trip computer.
The model is equipped with electric power steering, electric windows, and heated exterior mirrors. No less important car settings include:
1. Precise steering wheel height adjustment.
2. The presence of a front airbag and emergency braking system.
3. Modern climate control and audio system.
4. Headlight range control and daytime running lights.
5. Alarm and central locking.
6. High-quality seat covering with automotive fabric.
The given technical characteristics of the Lada Priora hatchback and additions refer to the “norm” configuration. The base build lacks many of these comfort and safety features.
The cost of both modifications is almost the same, so with a small additional payment you can get a high-quality and reliable car. Subsequent modifications to the base car may take too much time, although the final price will not differ.
Particularly important for domestic cars are low consumption and cheap maintenance. The technical characteristics of the modern VAZ Priora hatchback model ensure minimal costs for vehicle diagnostics and repairs: maintaining the car in full working order is not difficult.
If necessary, the interior and exterior can be modified depending on the purpose of use. In its normal form, it can be used for family trips, daily commutes to work, and safe travel.

Hatchback
The domestic manufacturer produces better and better cars each time, as it takes into account the mistakes of previous models.
The hatchback differs in its dimensions from the sedan (in millimeters):
- length – 4210;
- width – 1680;
- height – 1435;
- The ground clearance and track width of the rear and front wheels are the same as those of the sedan.
The hatchback is considered the most spacious, according to Autoreview magazine. What is the trunk volume of the most popular Lada Priora hatchback? It is very similar to the sedan, but it has a smaller trunk and a shorter rear overhang. This body type, when compared with the Lada Priora sedan, is smaller, but if you look more closely, it is very roomy. Its dimensions are (mm):
- length – 910, and with the sofa folded – 1700;
- width – 1500, between wheel arches – 930;
- the size from the floor to the trunk shelf is 523, and the loading area is 720.
Unfortunately, the hatchback has a capacity of only 360 liters of various cargo, but the driver can fold down the rear seats, which significantly increases the volume of the car up to 705 liters! And this is a lot.
Sport car
Very often, cars of the VAZ family are chosen as racing cars, especially for amateur competitions. One of the most suitable for these purposes is the white Priora hatchback. Pictures of sponsors advertising, riders' names and serial numbers are visible from afar on a white background.
Even the basic version of the car, the white Priora hatchback, features a sporty look. Tuning (photo below) will give it an aggressive and brutal look. Of course, a lot of work is required to upgrade the standard equipment to the racing version. But, as shown in the photo, the white Priora hatchback allows you to do it even in a garage, especially since there are no problems with purchasing components and spare parts for the Lada.
Such wide possibilities make the Priora white hatchback one of the most versatile. It is purchased by both young people - as a sports or city car, and adult family citizens - as a reliable means of transportation around the city and to the garden. Both men and women look natural behind the wheel of such a car. And car buying companies, for example, https://kupilauto.ru, are happy to purchase these cars.
Features of operation of Priora hatchback
It is important to further study the internal features of the model before purchasing a car. For example, the Lada Priora hatchback technical characteristics, which are quite good, have a high-quality immobilizer and trip computer.
The model is equipped with electric power steering, electric windows, and heated exterior mirrors. No less important car settings include:
1. Precise steering wheel height adjustment.
2. The presence of a front airbag and emergency braking system.
Modifications

In 2008, 15 cars were assembled, in 2009 it is planned to assemble 200 “premiers”.
- Coupe - plans to organize small-scale production of a three-door model based on a hatchback.
Reviews and test drive
Most car owners leave positive reviews about the Lada Priora 2019. The main advantage is the very affordable cost of the car, inexpensive maintenance, and the availability of all necessary spare parts in auto stores.
Among the advantages of the car are noted:
- Durable, reliable body.
- Endurance of the motor and other technical equipment.
- Economical fuel consumption.
- Stylish exterior design.
- Optimal dynamic qualities and maneuverability.
And if you tune the Lada Priora hatchback, then such a car will give even a foreign car a head start on the road.
But, of course, the car is not perfect - there are also disadvantages:
- There are only two engines to choose from, and there is no diesel engine at all.
- There are only two trim levels – not much choice.
- The cabin is cramped and the rear seats are uncomfortable.
- The adjustability of the driver's seat is not very functional.
- The plastic trim is hard, brittle, fragile and creaks.
- Build quality is not the best.
Watching the video will help you get additional information about the car and draw your own conclusions.
The Lada Priora hatchback (VAZ 2172) replaced the VAZ 2112 model. Production of the car started at the Volzhsky Automobile Plant in February 2008 - about a year later than the Priora sedan. According to the automaker, more than 950 changes and over two thousand new parts were made to the design of the model, compared to its predecessor.
With all this, externally the Priora hatchback is not too much different from the “two-piece”. The car received more modern lighting technology, retouched bumpers, new fenders and a hood, but the car’s profile remained virtually unchanged.
Configurations and prices of Lada Priora hatchback 2015 / VAZ 2172
| Equipment | Price | Engine | Box | Drive unit |
| 1.6 MT standard | 443 300 | gasoline 1.6 (106 hp) | mechanics (5) | front |
| 1.6 (98 hp) Norm MT | 454 300 | gasoline 1.6 (98 hp) | mechanics (5) | front |
| 1.6 AMT standard | 488 000 | gasoline 1.6 (106 hp) | robot (5) | front |
| 1.6 Lux MT | 514 100 | gasoline 1.6 (106 hp) | mechanics (5) | front |
| 1.6 Luxury AMT | 534 100 | gasoline 1.6 (106 hp) | robot (5) | front |
Of course, the dimensions of the car have not changed. The overall length of the five-door Priora is 4,210 mm (wheelbase - 2,492 mm), width - 1,680 mm, height - 1,435 mm, ground clearance (clearance) is 165 mm.
Thus, compared to the sedan, the Priora hatchback is 140 mm shorter and 15 mm higher. The trunk volume of the five-door is 70 liters less (360 liters versus 430 on the sedan). But if you fold the back of the rear sofa, its volume increases to a decent 705 liters.
Tuning
Like all VAZ models, the LADA Priora Universal (VAZ 2171) can be easily tuned, with the help of which it can be transformed into a completely different car, unlike the production one. In this case, changes can be made to almost all nodes.
The easiest way to implement changes is in the station wagon's interior. It is enough to change the original upholstery material to a more textured and brighter color, and also decorate the dashboard and door panels with original metal or wooden (imitation of precious wood) inserts. The Priora will also be given more solidity by replacing the standard front seats with Recaro seats. The salon will immediately acquire individuality.
Station wagon styling
You can completely change the exterior of the VAZ 2171 Priora station wagon by:
- glass tinting;
- installation of new thresholds and aerodynamic body kits;
- use of forged wheels and low-profile tires;
- tuning of front optics and radiator grille.
Additionally, you can decorate the body with vinyl film and install a decorative trim on the heater air intake. All this will allow you to change the usual image of a station wagon beyond recognition.
Technical tuning
If necessary, you can improve the technical characteristics of the VAZ 2171 station wagon by subjecting it to technical tuning.
The main procedure that needs to be carried out is to increase the cylinder capacity of the station wagon engine to 1.8 liters. Besides:
- carry out modifications to the cylinder block;
- install lightweight flywheels and gas distribution valves;
- change the throttle valve and other parts.
Attention! Having increased the power, it is necessary to bring the controllability and stability of the VAZ 2171 Priora station wagon in accordance with it. We offer a review of the most practical car from the entire Lada Priora family
This is, of course, the new Lada Priora station wagon (VAZ 2171)
We offer an overview of the most practical car from the entire Lada Priora family. This is, of course, the new Lada Priora station wagon (VAZ 2171)
. In our article you will find photos, characteristics, prices and other information about this car.
The first Priors station wagon
appeared on sale back in 2009, two years after the start of sales of sedans. Lada Priora station wagon is the most spacious and roomy car of the entire Priora family. However, the length of the station wagon is 1 centimeter shorter than the sedan, but longer than the hatchback. At the same time, the wheelbase of all three body options is the same.
The luggage compartment volume of the Priora station wagon is 444 liters
, however, if you fold the rear seats, the volume of loading space increases to 777 liters. The most interesting thing is that the seats still do not fold into a perfectly flat floor.
As for the latest restyling, which took place in 2013, the car has remained virtually unchanged in appearance. Apart from the new radiator grille, bumpers, turn signals built into the exterior mirrors and optics with daytime running lights, by the way, the rear lights now have LEDs.
However, the technical part and interior have undergone more serious changes. Thus, a more powerful power unit of 106 hp appeared on the new generation Lada Priora station wagon. This engine is not a new development, but a modernized 98 hp engine. As for the transmission of the front-wheel drive station wagon, Avtovaz designers modified the manual gearbox, and a new cable clutch appeared. There is no automatic transmission option yet, but as the manufacturer promises, Lada Priora with automatic transmission will hit the production line at the end of summer 2014
. In addition, the sound insulation of the Lada Priora station wagon has been slightly improved.
But the first thing that clearly catches your eye on the new Priora is the interior. There are new seats with a fabric that is more practical and pleasant to the touch. By the way, in rich trim levels, the front seats have built-in side airbags and heating with three power levels. The steering wheel is now three-spoke. The center console has a color monitor, which is not only an element of the stereo system, but can also act as a navigator screen.

Overall dimensions of Priora | PrioraPRO
Lada Priora cars are designed specifically for dynamic and fast-paced city roads. Their appearance is distinguished by its composure, versatility and agility. The overall dimensions of the Priora emphasize its individuality - each model, be it a hatchback, sedan or station wagon, has its own dimensions:
A hatchback by nature, the car is more youthful, due to this it is lighter and sportier - its dimensions are: length 4210 mm, width 1680 mm, height 1435 mm;
The heavier sedan has dimensions: length 4400 mm, width 1680 mm, height 1420 mm;
The squat and solid station wagon meets the following parameters: length 4340 mm, width 1680 mm, height 1508 mm;
The handsome Coupe, fast and dynamic, has dimensions: length 4243 mm, width 1680 mm, height 1435 mm.
The overall dimensions of the Lada Priora are gently combined with the style of its body. This is emphasized by geometric lines, an elegantly designed radiator grille, and elegant headlights, both rear and front. Adding uniqueness are the open front and rear wheel arches, which are pulled up to the wheel arch by the rear bumper. This combination makes the car elevated and attracts attention.
In addition, the overall dimensions of the Priora can confidently be compared with excellent aerodynamics. When driving at high speeds, the car provides a balance of lifting and downforce on the front and rear axles, and the air resistance coefficient in the sedan body is 0.34, which corresponds to the level of the world's best analogues.
During crash tests, the Lada Priora, whose overall dimensions are quite small in comparison with cars in its price segment, showed itself in the best possible way: it meets the latest European requirements for side and frontal impacts. Absolute safety is ensured with seat belts for each passenger, an airbag for the driver, and in the “luxury” configuration also for the front passenger.
Also in the Priora, the side pillars and floor sills were improved, and steel door safety bars were installed. Special damping inserts are built into the door trim, which provide increased safety in the event of a side impact.
In the event of a possible collision at low speeds, the safety of the front passenger is increased thanks to the soft pad on the instrument panel.

Operational deficiencies
Like most domestic cars, Priora has a rather weak paint coating, as a result of which the body of used cars is covered with chips and scratches. However, the problem with the low quality of metal and the level of anti-corrosion treatment is much more acute. As a result, the car quickly begins to become covered with rust, showing hot spots in various places. The most susceptible to corrosion are wheel arches, doors, sills and hood.
Engine
Both gasoline engines have proven themselves well during operation and are unpretentious in maintenance. The biggest problems are caused by electronic sensors, which cannot serve as a standard for durability. Quite often the throttle valve and the gasket between the head and the cylinder block fail due to the low quality of gasoline. When it gets dirty, the car stalls and loses traction. During operation of the machine, it is necessary to pay sufficient attention to the operation of the cooling system. Quite quickly, especially in the summer, the thermostat can fail, which can lead to overheating of the engine with all the ensuing consequences. Car enthusiasts will not be pleased with the long service life of the ignition coil and fuel pump. The car has a timing belt drive and, according to the manufacturer, its service life is 200 thousand kilometers. However, do not forget that as a result of a broken belt, the valve bends and you have to do a major overhaul of the engine. Therefore, owners of LADA Priora 2008 recommend changing it along with the rollers and pump at least every 100 thousand km.
Transmission
Despite the fact that the car is equipped with no alternative to a manual transmission, this gearbox cannot serve as a standard of reliability. The main disadvantage is weak synchronizers, which, however, is typical for manual transmissions installed on all AvtoVAZ models. The main sign of their failure is a characteristic crunch, which is clearly audible when changing gears. Priora received enhanced clutch from, but the problem of the limited service life of the release bearing was never solved. The service life of the transmission can be extended by using high-quality oil and regularly changing the fluid in the box, which must be done at least once every 75 thousand kilometers.
Chassis and steering
Surely many car enthusiasts are familiar with the problems of domestic cars associated with the short service life of the suspension. However, LADA Priora in this component can compete on equal terms with most budget foreign cars presented on the secondary market. Stabilizer bushings fail most quickly. As a rule, this happens already at 10–20 thousand km. mileage Following them, the stabilizer struts will have to be changed. Steering tips and wheel bearings will last about 40 - 50 thousand km. Replacement of ball joints and support bearings will be required after a mileage of 60 - 70 thousand km. Shock absorbers, CV joints and silent blocks of front levers can last 100 - 120 thousand kilometers. The original brake pads may not survive the first 10 thousand km, so the driver will have to quickly replace them with better analogues.
Poor quality operation of the electric power steering can cause certain troubles. The main signals of such a malfunction are jerking and heaviness when turning the steering wheel. The problem can be resolved by cleaning the electrical wiring contacts of the unit.
Other faults
Both the quality of the materials used for interior decoration and the level of assembly itself deserve great criticism, as a result of which car enthusiasts will have to put up with numerous extraneous sounds throughout the entire period of operation. Moreover, every year there will be more and more of them. Additional installed sound insulation and pasting of elements with vibration-absorbing materials do not help get rid of them either. The driver will constantly have to deal with malfunctions of electrical equipment, which occur mainly due to oxidation of contacts.
Specifications
Below we will talk about each element of the Lada Priora separately, namely, we will consider separately the body, engine, trunk, etc.
Body
Priora was produced in several bodies. In 2007, only a sedan appeared; later, in 2008, the first hatchback and station wagon rolled off the assembly line.
Sedan 2170
This body turned out to be very nice and most popular among young people. Young people started buying Priora and subjecting it to various tunings. It became a kind of youth movement.
Station wagon 2171
This type of body is an excellent solution for family people. The station wagon is equipped with a huge trunk.
Hatchback 2172
The hatchback does not differ from the sedan in technical characteristics and the front part of the body, but is shorter by several centimeters, which is noticeable to the naked eye.

Gear box
Priora was equipped with several gearboxes depending on the configuration and year of manufacture of the car. All gearboxes are 5-speed
Gearbox with rocker
This gearbox was installed on cars from 2007 to 2013. It is a fairly reliable and unpretentious gearbox, its main “soreness” is the weak second gear, which begins to fly out over time.
Cable gearbox
Installed on cars since 2014. Received a large number of positive reviews, the position of the gears, namely the reverse gear, has changed. The vibrations transmitted to the cabin from the gearbox have been reduced.
Robotic gearbox
In 2014, luxury car models began to be equipped with a robotic gearbox. It is very reliable and unpretentious, but noticeably loses in dynamics compared to a manual transmission.
Lada modifications of the sedan of the Priora car are the pioneer of the brand, code 2170. Russian budget city car, produced by AvtoVAZ from 2007 to 2021. Over the years, the car has been mass-produced in four bodies: sedan, hatchback, station wagon and coupe. Each of these versions found its buyer among certain groups of car enthusiasts, and the Lada Priora sedan even in popular culture. Remember the song: Lada Sedan eggplant!
The car has a balanced weight of 1088 to 1185 kg and engine power, making it dynamic. At the same time, fuel consumption does not exceed 9-10 liters. Which is appropriate for the city! The price of the entire car also hit the bull's eye. Over time, people preferred to buy a new car instead of a foreign car that was 20 years old.
The Priora sedan became the first car option for young drivers. All impressions boil down to the fact that for its class the car is comfortable, ergonomic and, moreover, smoothly goes over bumps and is inexpensive for spare parts.
Important technical characteristics of the Priora car - sedan, hatchback, station wagon
Lada Priora became the successor of the VAZ-2110, adopting several elements from it and gaining the sympathy of domestic car owners - where would we be without cans.
About 400 parts were redone. In its segment, Lada Priora receives one of the best ratings due to its unpretentiousness and good performance. But what exactly is worth saying about the car is that the technical characteristics of the Priora car are quite decent for its class. AvtoVAZ introduced the VAZ-2170 model in the mid-2000s, Priora was produced from 2007 to 2021, and in 2013 it underwent restyling with minor changes. Over the years, a large number of VAZ cars have been produced, and many ideas have emerged to improve and stylize Lada Priora cars. Technical characteristics are the point at which an experienced driver chooses a car; you shouldn’t buy it for its pretty eyes. Although look at the picture below and her eyes.
