Technical characteristics of the new Lada Vesta


Dimensional Lada Vesta dimensions Recently they have ceased to be a secret. The manufacturer has released data on the body dimensions of the Lada Vesta sedan. The length of the car is 4410 mm, width 1764 mm, height 1497 mm. It is worth noting that the length of Vesta in a hatchback body is also known - 4250 mm. The Vesta station wagon will have almost the same length as the sedan.

As for the ground clearance of the Lada Vesta , this figure will be 178 mm , that is, the ground clearance of the Lada Vesta will be almost 18 centimeters. Some parquet crossovers may envy this indicator.

The trunk volume of the Lada Vesta sedan, according to the manufacturer, will be equal to 480 liters . Naturally, in a hatchback body this volume will be reduced, but the station wagon will delight us with its increased capacity.

Now let's talk about the space in the Lada Vesta cabin. The wheelbase, that is, the distance from the front to the rear axle, will be 2635 mm, which is quite good. If we compare it with the same Granta or Kalina, then the base there is only 2476 mm. That is, the interior is 159 mm or 16 centimeters longer. In any case, there is more internal space, because the width is also 6.5 centimeters larger. I would also like these dimensions to have competent ergonomics, then the Lada Vesta can be recommended as a family car. In terms of dimensions, this is a full-fledged “C” class car; let’s remember Kalina and Granta are of a lower class – “B” class.

Dimensions of Lada Vesta sedan

  • Length – 4410 mm
  • Width – 1764 mm
  • Height – 1497 mm
  • Front overhang – 860 mm
  • Rear overhang – 915 mm
  • Base, distance between front and rear axle – 2635 mm
  • Front and rear wheel track – 1510/1510 mm, respectively
  • Trunk volume – 480 liters
  • Curb weight – 1150-1195 kg
  • Gross weight – 1625-1670 kg
  • Fuel tank volume – 50 liters
  • Vesta ground clearance – 178 mm

By the way, the not very large luggage volume of the Vesta sedan is apparently due to the presence of a full-size spare wheel under the trunk floor. The trunk volume of the Vesta Cross will be significantly larger.

Lada Vesta in the line of the domestic giant AvtoVAZ is a progressive and promising car. It is designed to replace the previously popular flagship Priora model on the assembly line. The manufacturer initially included considerable overall body dimensions in its new creation, which in its class can be regarded as an attempt to gain leadership.

Let us remind you that Lada Vesta is a product of joint activity between AvtoVAZ engineers and the world-famous Renault-Nissan concern. For this car, the developers did not spare technology and created a completely new platform, which will serve in the future to create various modifications of the model. Thanks to such a base, the Russian car began to look very attractive. It acquired genuine monumentality and balance, which could not be seen in previous models. This aspect was directly affected by the dimensions. Thanks to their increase, passengers became much more comfortable inside the cabin, again in comparison with previously created models, where the dimensions were more modest.

Peculiarities

The designers are planning other options for completing the power unit. The Lada Vesta car, the engine of which is equipped with a special groove for the gas valve, which allows it to be converted to a similar fuel, is easy to convert to a new engine. Considering the cost-effectiveness and price fluctuations in the oil market, this solution is very promising.

The fuel tank hatch is slightly enlarged. It is also designed for a dual-fuel system (gasoline plus methane). Imported power units, thanks to chain transmission, are more reliable. Therefore, they are recommended to be installed when switching to gas.

More information about Vesta body dimensions

The standard modification is a sedan. This model has the following body dimensions:

  • Vesta's length has grown to 4410 mm, which is akin to a record for a small class;
  • the width also makes competitors tremble convulsively, because its value is 1764 mm;
  • The wheelbase does not lag behind here, which managed to “stretch” to an impressive 2635 mm;
  • the front axle has a track of 1500 mm, and the rear axle is slightly larger - 1510 mm; here the developers initially pursued the goal of bringing the parameters of both tracks to standard values, namely: at the front - 1500 mm, and at the stern - 1490 mm, but it turned out the other way around, which allowed the rear passengers to acquire additional space in the cabin; in general, the body dimensions are really good.
  • in terms of weight, the car has become significantly heavier and “gained” 1150 kg (this is without the lack of a full regulated load);
  • if the Lada Vesta is fully loaded, the weight will increase to 1670 kg, which is akin to middle-class sedans;

As you can see, in terms of dimensional parameters, the manufacturer did a great job, giving its product the ability to compete in this discipline with cars of a higher class.

Interior dimensions of the domestic model

Thanks to the impressive size of the body, the Lada Vesta managed to acquire a fairly spacious interior. Here, on both seating rows, five people of average build can sit with sufficient comfort. Trips over long distances with such a large number will proceed with comfort and in an unnoticed time.

The developers paid great attention to such an important dimensional parameter as the height inside the LADA Vesta cabin. Thanks to this, Vesta has increased the amount of space between the seat cushions and the roof lining. Tall passengers will feel quite comfortable after boarding. There is also now no risk of catching your head on the edge of the doorway while “immersing” in the cabin.

The length and width of the Russian model had a beneficial effect on the amount of space available for placing the legs of the rear riders. The distance from the back of the front seats to the passenger’s knees in the rear seat row is an enviable 200 mm. Even people 2 m tall will not be able to rest against the front backrests.

Vesta trunk dimensions

What is the width and size of the trunk? The luggage compartment, as well as the body and interior of the LADA Vesta, are not inferior in size to competitors in the class. Thanks to the well-chosen shapes of the rear body panels and the impressive track, the car has a fairly wide opening in the luggage compartment.

Next, we will touch on the main dimensions, which will more clearly demonstrate the capabilities of the trunk:

  • the height inside the compartment reaches 570 mm;
  • compartment length is 960 mm;
  • if you fold the backs of the stern seating row, this parameter increases to an unprecedented 1650 mm;
  • the width and size of the trunk is 1400 mm;
  • such an important parameter as the loading height reaches 715 mm;
  • in general, the volume for luggage is 450 liters, and with the rear backrests folded it immediately increases to 1100 liters.

Power plant parameters HR16 DE

Let's consider the indicators that the improved Lada-Vesta has. Engines (technical data) type HR 16:

  • working volume – 1597 cubic centimeters;
  • power parameters – 111-117 horsepower;
  • maximum speed – six thousand rotations per minute;
  • power unit - distributed injection;
  • cylinders - four pieces with 4 valves, in an in-line arrangement;
  • the cylinder size is 76 mm in diameter with a piston stroke of 88 mm;
  • ecology - Euro-5 class.

The motor is combined exclusively with a French-made mechanical transmission equipped with a CVT.

Let's sum it up

As we have found out, the overall dimensions of the popular domestic model LADA Vesta today are able to meet the needs of the most demanding customers. The car is equally suitable not only for family owners, but will also be a reliable work companion. It allows you to easily transport large luggage if you fold the back rows. Also, the carrying capacity will allow you to achieve some savings when transporting items. All these possibilities have become available due to the fact that the manufacturer has endowed this progressive model with dimensions that are respectable for its class.

The new model of the domestic automobile industry quickly gained popularity due to its modern appearance and respectable size. The dimensions of the Lada Vesta correspond to cars in the intermediate B+ segment, noticeably exceeding the body dimensions of other AvtoVAZ models. Due to the increase in external parameters, the internal dimensions of the machine have changed in a positive direction.

Comparison with other models

The overall dimensions of the Lada Vesta consist of several parameters. The length of the Lada Vesta is 441 cm, which allows it to have sufficient space inside the car. The width of the Lada Vesta is also greater than that of other VAZ models. Thanks to this, passengers and the driver do not feel pinched in the shoulders. To really evaluate the advantages of the new sedan, it is enough to compare it with other domestic cars produced today by the AvtoVAZ plant:

Engine and transmission (dynamics)

The dynamic technical characteristics of the Lada Vesta depend on the power unit. The first engine option installed on the Lada Vesta is a 1.6-liter 16-valve unit with a capacity of 106 hp. with the index 21129, the ancestor of which is the 21127 installed on Grants, Kalinas and Prioras. A feature of the new engine is a modified air intake system. Along with the increase in power, the rigidity of the cylinder block has been increased, the lubrication system has been improved and the fuel injection system has been modernized. Acceleration time to 100 km is 11.2 seconds with a manual transmission and 14.1 seconds with an automatic transmission.

The second version of the power unit is a 1.8 liter 16-valve engine with a power of 122 horsepower. Engine 21179 was developed by AvtoVAZ engineers. The predecessor of this unit is the 21126 engine, which has been under the hood of almost all the latest VAZ models. Acceleration to 100 km/h is 12.1 s.

Interior dimensions


Dimensions of the Lada Vesta The solid size of the body of the Lada Vesta accommodates an equally spacious interior. Five average-sized people can fit inside the car. The decent height of the Lada Vesta made it possible to increase the space between the seat cushions and the ceiling. Getting into the car is carried out at a comfortable level and there is no risk of hitting your head on the edges of the doorway.

The distance from the rear wall of the front seat to the rear passenger's feet is more than 200 mm. A passenger up to 190 cm tall will not rest his knees on the back of the seat in front. The length of the front seat cushions and the rear sofa reaches 45 and 48 cm, respectively. The width of the cabin allows for comfortable seating of three passengers on the sofa in the back. These interior dimensions are close in value to the parameters of class C cars.

Description of the HR16 DE motor

In the imported version, the power plant has a power of one hundred and seventeen horsepower. The engine is mounted on various vehicles, and since 2015 it has also been equipped at the VAZ plant. The engine is unpretentious in terms of fuel quality; instead of a timing belt, it is equipped with a chain drive.

In addition, the unit includes a modified gas distribution system, an electronic throttle valve, and a phase shifter. At the same time, there are no hydraulic compensators, which requires adjusting the gaps every 85-95 thousand kilometers. Otherwise, extraneous noise and knocking will appear.

Benefits of the luggage compartment

The trunk of the Lada Vesta is also not inferior in terms of useful space to its “classmates”. The shapes of the body parts of the rear of the car form a wide opening in the luggage compartment. Its main parameters:

  • height – 57 cm;
  • length – 96 cm;
  • length with the backrests of the rear sofa folded – 1.65 m;
  • width – 1.4 m;
  • loading height – 71.5 cm;
  • volume – 450 liters, if the seats are folded – 1100 liters.

The dimensions of the sedan meet all the requirements and needs of most people, since it can easily fit the whole family or a group of friends, as well as quite large luggage. With the rear seats folded down, you can transport long and large items in the car, and the car’s solid carrying capacity will allow you to save a lot on the delivery of non-standard and heavy cargo.

What engine is being installed on the Lada Vesta in 2021?

The main intrigue is how Vesta will behave with a 1.8-liter engine and a manual transmission. Judging by the available information, the acceleration of the car from zero to one hundred kilometers will be just over ten seconds. At the same time, the maximum speed is predicted to be within 190 km/h. It turns out that the manual transmission is faster by a couple of seconds than the automated version.

Fuel consumption is expected to be about seven and a half liters per hundred kilometers in mixed mode. For the new engine, Togliatti engineers developed a special version of the five-speed gearbox called VAZ-21807. The transmission unit and the main clutch pair have also undergone modernization. The advantages include a significant reduction in noise during operation of the new box compared to previous units. It is worth noting that the closest competitor, Lada X-Ray, has a different mechanical gear shift mechanism. There is a gearbox from Renault JR-5 with increased clutch dimensions up to 215 millimeters.
