New paint coating technology
The use of exclusive colors is not the only innovation of AvtoVAZ.
To apply the paint, the company's specialists used a high-quality primer as a basis, which is applied to the car using innovative technologies that protect the car body from rust. As a result, consumers will receive a machine with a unique coating and increased wear resistance characteristics. The only drawback of the unique chameleon-type coatings is the lack of simple color design in case of need for body repairs. If the car was damaged and received chips or scratches, then restoring the original surface will not cost the car owner cheap. In addition, everyone who expresses a desire to purchase a car with metallic paint will have to pay an additional 12 thousand rubles to the cost of the car.
Every buyer can decide on the color when buying a car by looking at different photo options of the Lada Vesta body on various Internet portals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZ8ir3Hc52o

Cornelian.
It's flashy! It personifies the energy and bright design of the new product!
Glacial.
This is a glossy body color, which, although not the most spectacular, is very practical and respectable. The white enamel goes well with the car's black exterior details and taillights.
Angkor
is a chocolate “metallic” that combines an attractive balance between the bright colors of the exterior details and the severity of the black and gray palette.
Very impressive color of Lada Vesta Cross SV - Carthage
Carthage.
A very striking light color, but nevertheless very practical. The paint plays very nicely in the sun, and at the same time it remains solid and not flashy. Causes moderate calm and admiration. By the way, for those who want to purchase, they will have to pay an additional 18 thousand rubles on top.
Blues.
This is what a deep body of water or sky has before a clap of thunder. A very complex and deep color, just like the blues, after which this shade was named.
Phantom.
This is the color I want to talk about! When I saw it for the first time, I couldn’t believe that AvtoVAZ started using such enamels. This is a real chameleon that shimmers from golden brown to bluish. You want to look at this color for a very long time, it doesn’t get boring and looks really very stylish. If all the colors of the Lada Vesta Cross SV were rated on a ten-point scale, then I would give this color a solid 12 points!
- This is another shade of gray Lada enamel. The usual strict color, but no less stylish, especially with the “X-shaped” body features of the West. Suitable for those who do not want to stand out from the standard flow.
.
I immediately remembered the ship of the same name from Pirates of the Caribbean. Why this color was called that way is unknown to me. However, the color is very strict. Requires maintenance, but will never go out of style. Looks especially cool with chrome body elements.
Platinum
- classic “silver”. This is not to say that the color is boring, but it cannot be called unique either. I would say this is the most practical color of all. Micro scratches and dust are not very visible on such a surface.

The Lada Vesta sedan has already been evaluated many times and from various angles, offering a comparison with competitors, a review of technical innovations or a discussion of the results of a test drive. But there was practically no talk about the variability of colors, so we propose to fill this gap.
The color scheme of the Vesta sedan has only been preliminary approved and in the future will be regularly replenished with new shades, the total number of which can reach up to 20. At the same time, we note that almost all colors will have a metallic effect, which was simply not the case in the Russian automobile industry before. However, this is not all that the Lada Vesta is going to surprise in terms of body paint. For example, they paint a new car using a completely new technology for AvtoVAZ using cataphoresis, which makes it possible for the first time in the history of the Volga auto giant to extend the warranty against corrosion to 6 years.
The sedan has two classic “non-metallic” colors, and only three shades unite the new product with earlier models of the concern, and the rest will be completely new. This can be done safely with
Hidden meaning in the color name Carthage Lada Vesta Cross SV
Popular reviews from Lada Vesta Cross owners with photos
It may seem strange to many that the AvtoVAZ color line contains very strange names. Just look at the color Eggplant, which at one time also managed to make a splash. But things are not so simple with Carthage. This is not a name taken from the head, but an idea developed by marketers.
The Carthage color comes in the TOP Exclusive configuration for a reason. The idea behind the name is that it originated from the catchphrase “Carthage must be destroyed.” No, now we are not talking about some kind of destruction of Vesta. It's all about the meaning of the expression. And it is something like this: “Persistence in defending one’s views, indestructibility of views, confidence in one’s rightness.” It turns out that we have some hidden meaning in the name of the color. The Lada Vesta itself is a new car. It may not be the most technologically advanced and equipped, but for VAZ this is a serious step forward. Therefore, the marketing department also put a hidden meaning into the color. They say we worked hard towards this and will continue to defend our position. And we also hope and wait for this!
Pros and cons of the Phantom color on the Lada Vesta SV
The main advantage is the unique color, which is used by only a small number of car manufacturers. The color is really unusual, which allows you to stand out in the crowd
The attention of passers-by will be ensured 100%. In addition, since the base color is dark gray, the car will not be very brandable
Accordingly, in bad weather, pollution will not attract attention as much.
But the phantom color also has its disadvantages. This is the difficulty of selecting and further painting the part. Therefore, when buying a Lada Vesta SV in phantom color, be prepared to pay much more for repairs. But who cares? After all, no one will think about an accident when it comes to such a car. Do you agree?
I forgot to say that phantom coloring is more expensive than other colors from the Vesta SV Cross palette. So if you want to buy Vesta in the Phantom color, be prepared to pay another 12 thousand rubles on top of the main price.

Lada Vesta Cross 2020
Does it look interesting? Undoubtedly. This one goes especially well with the black plastic body kit inherent in the crossover version of the station wagon; it doesn’t get lost like, for example, on black. It is also noteworthy that no other manufacturer offers similar colors for their models, at least in the budget segment. However, if you really like the chameleon color, then you can cover your car with a special film, which can be of absolutely any color, but it’s really not that cheap, and its service life is much shorter than regular paintwork, which, by the way, is quite good on Vesta , and on the Cross version it is also additionally protected in some places by plastic.
Features of the Phantom color
As with any other metallic color, when purchasing a Vesta Cross station wagon, you will have to pay an additional 12,000 rubles. This is a fairly small amount if you compare it with a similar option from other automakers. By itself, it is quite non-staining; a small layer of dust or dirt on it is not as noticeable as, for example, on white. However, you will still have to visit the car wash quite often, since a clean station wagon looks beautiful.
As for possible scratches, it is better to avoid them, since at a certain viewing angle they will be noticeable. However, polishing them will not be difficult, and this can be done not only in a specialized service center or car wash, but even on your own.
But certain problems may arise with color matching, but you will only encounter them if you get into an accident. Choosing a shade will be a little more difficult than in the case of a regular color, but if the “colorist” is a professional in his field, then this will not be difficult for him, so it is better to contact specialists with extensive experience and good reviews. If we talk about brushes for touching up chips, then there will be no problems; you can buy them in most car stores that have spare parts and accessories for Vesta.
The difference between SW Cross and regular Vesta
The SV Cross differs from the basic station wagon by the presence of a plastic body kit and wheels with a diameter of 17 inches. The ground clearance has been increased to 20.3 cm (instead of the standard 17.8 cm). The new Lada has already been compared to the Renault Duster crossover. The domestic car is superior to the French “competitor” in terms of length and even ground clearance.
The developers also improved the already good suspension from the regular Vesta, shock absorbers and springs were replaced. This has led to the fact that the Vesta Sw Cross 2021 holds the road and handles even better than the Lada without the “Cross” prefix.
Exterior
The rear door opening has increased, and the window frame has also “raised.” The roof slope has become flatter. This makes the position of passengers in the rear seat more comfortable, because There is enough space between their heads and the ceilings.
The inclination of the rear pillars is the same as on all bodies with a shortened rear overhang - slightly forward. The fifth door connector resembles a shark fin and runs along the top of the pillars.
The body of the 2021 Lada Vesta SV Cross is 15 cm higher than the classic sedan, and slightly wider thanks to the wheel arches. The new Lada is equipped with rear disc brakes. But this update is only for “advanced” versions.
The fuel filler flap now has a central lock, with which it is locked and latched. The protruding “ear” has been removed. The modernization also affected the trunk lock: now it opens and closes using a button. It is located under the license plate.
The design of the antenna has changed: instead of a twig that will remain on the sedan, it finally took the shape of an elegant fin. The exhaust pipe is equipped with a double-barreled nozzle (the base model does not have this upgrade).
The color scheme of the 2021 Lada Vesta SV Cross includes 10 shades. All of them are bright and juicy, which gives the car even more charisma. Each, according to AvtoVAZ tradition, has its own name - “Mars”, “Glacial”, “Black Pearl”. This is a “stretch” of monochrome colors - from pearly white to elegant black, as well as orange and red shades.
Interior
In front, between the seats, there is a box armrest. And the rear sofa is equipped with a folding armrest. The instrument scale has a stylish design.
Inside, the upholstery of the Lada Vesta SW Cross 2021 is made in the same colors as the exterior trim. For example, the shade “mars” is a metallic orange color. Inside the cabin, the standard dark graphite paint on the seats is combined with orange stripes and dark gray accents. The inner sides of the doors and the control panel are decorated in the same style.
The steering wheel comes complete with control units and a massive suspension. The design of the instrument console in the form of three “wells” is just like on sports cars. The central panel has a small display and control units.
The back seat of the Lada Vesta SV Cross 2021 is a three-seater sofa. It is separate, the backrests fold. Wear-resistant materials or textiles are used as finishing. Leather is not used.

Technical stuffing
The Lada Vesta SW Cross 2021 crossover with a new body is equipped with a new 1.8 liter engine. Also, the basic configuration includes VAZ gasoline engines with 16 valves.
The official website presents 2 versions of the engine with a power of 106 l/s (at 5800 rpm) and 122 l/s (at 5900 rpm).
1.6 106 hp; 1.8 122 hp
The 1.8 engine has an index of 21179. It has already been installed on the Lada Vesta sedan of 2021. It had disadvantages - knocking hydraulic compensators and too high fuel consumption. But in the new revised version these shortcomings have been eliminated.
The classic automated gearbox is not installed in this version of the Lada. The developers explained their decision by saying that otherwise the cost of the car would have been much higher.
A manual transmission will be installed for the 1.6 liter engine, and a mechanical and robotic one for the 1.8 engine.
The sills and bottom of the 2021 Lada Vesta SV Cross are equipped with anti-gravel protection. The material used for the outer body panels is double galvanized steel.
The safety system includes front and side airbags, head restraints in the rear seats, child seat mounts, automatic door unlocking and activation of the emergency signal in the event of a collision, automatic locking when starting to move on the road, activation of the hazard warning lights during sudden braking, ABS and ESP complexes , light and rain sensors, anti-theft protection, cruise control and ERA-GLONASS, all this puts the new body of the 2021 Lada Vesta SW Cross on the same level as competitors from a foreign manufacturer.
Survey of car enthusiasts
Previously, the management of the concern decided to find out the public’s opinion on what body color the West should have. At the beginning of the year, a survey regarding color preferences for the new model was launched on the manufacturer’s official website.

Lada Vesta color anchor
This color is more suitable for people with a unique outlook on life and relationships with people, who are reserved in themselves. And children intuitively make the similarity of this color with sweets. In the sun, the brown metallic takes on a golden hue, and even with the slightest glare from the sun it is reflected very well. The disadvantage of this color is its sensitivity to dirt, therefore, you will have to wash the car more often compared to other colorings of this car.
The manufacturer gives this color a 72-month warranty. Angkor color is reflective and has great resistance to temperature changes. Aluminum powder is added to the composition, giving a metallic effect. The paint has a durable base in the form of a phosphate film.

↑ Coverage quality of Lada Vesta
Reviews from Lada owners and those who managed to see the chameleon shade in person indicate that such a car visually stands out in traffic and attracts attention. Anyone who first assessed the exterior of Vesta in the classic configuration, in comparison with other sedans, and then asked its cost, will be doubly pleasantly surprised to learn that this is not a foreign car, but a solid domestic car. Moreover, in addition to scheduled repairs and maintenance, the purchase of a Volga car includes a 6-year warranty on the body against through corrosion.
Even before the appearance of the iridescent shade in the color range of the Lada, there were no particular complaints about the quality of the paintwork; the coating has indeed become much more resistant to external influences, strong and durable. Most of the reviews regarding the announcement of the new shade of Vesta indicate that the owners believe that the chameleon will be no worse than the main colors. And they are fully confirmed by operating experience and the opinions of real Lada car owners.
As for service, it is traditionally at its best: in an authorized service center, subject to the established frequency of visits, they will diagnose and replace faulty parts free of charge, and recommend a choice of analogues.
The equipment, even in the basic version, also pleases the domestic car enthusiast who is not spoiled by delights: headrests, convenient controls, ergonomics of the driver’s panel, and the overall level of comfort.
All that remains is to add to this solid engine characteristics, the ability to choose options with an automatic or manual transmission, painting with a special composition that changes shades, and the portrait of a reliable, modern, exceptionally beautiful car is ready.
↑ Lada Vesta SW palette
The Lada Vesta SW is also available in the same colors as the regular Lada.
There is a stylish Lada Vesta coriander, and rich red, which attracts attention with its rich hue, and dark blue, which amazes with its depth of tone, and, of course, the standard crystal white is also present! That is, the palette completely coincides with those shades that are present in the “sedan” category
Let's look at the most popular solutions in this class.
Perhaps the brightest and most saturated color is “lime”. According to many Internet portals, this option is the most successful, and this can be explained. Such a light green car will always be noticeable on the road. This color is rightfully considered the most youthful. And, of course, the most popular among women. By the way, the price for painting this color is the highest.
Another popular option is Krypton. If you remember, this was the name of the planet in the Superman comics, on which the radioactive substance kryptonite, glowing bright green, was located. But, even despite such a bright option, a car painted green still looks strict and restrained. It turns out that this is a universal color suitable for almost any car.
Another color used in this line is “Angkor”. This is the name of one of the most ancient temple complexes located in Cambodia. Accordingly, the color turned out to be just as mysterious and beautiful.
The rich chocolate tone, gradually turning into metallic gray, has still not left anyone who saw it indifferent. If the brown Lada comes under sunlight, it turns golden yellow. This effect of transitional shades is called a chameleon and is obtained by mixing several shades at once. As a result, the car owner receives a car that shimmers in all shades of brown.
LADA Vesta SW Cross by color scheme
White Glacier 221
The white body color is the factory standard, and therefore you do not have to pay for it. The two-layer enamel clearly conveys the “character of a glacier.” We don’t have to talk about practicality, but in defense it’s worth mentioning the savings of 12 thousand rubles. Externally, this design suits the car.
Mars "orange" 130
It is orange that AvtoVAZ exhibits as a presentable color for the new LADA Vesta SW Cross. The station wagon acquires with it a spirit of adventurism, where there are no limits beyond the end of the road. “Mars” has the richest pigmentation in the line. Stands out from afar in traffic. Suitable for people with fresh views on life - girls are also interested in orange.
Carnelian “red” 195
Metallic in this design has long been considered the top color for many car brands. Additional payment of 12 thousand rubles. justified
Red gives the body a little charm, which is important for young people trying to attract the attention of the opposite sex. Cross means a ground clearance of 203 mm: among sedans, finding your vehicle is easier than ever. The female half of humanity definitely prefers “carnelian”
The female half of humanity definitely prefers “carnelian”.
Angkor “brown” 246
The most unpretentious enamel. Various types of abrasions or scratches are most easily eliminated by independent efforts. Minor dirt is visible only on the sunniest days, but on other days the body looks like it has been washed. “Angkor” is the most controversial color – not every driver in our country would decide to overpay that kind of money for it.
Carthage "gray-beige" 247
The name “Carthage” already implies a special status for the driver. It is for this that they are asking as much as 18 thousand rubles. The manufacturer created this unique price segment for a reason. AvtoVAZ is skillfully trying to sell a top-end car at a higher price. Gray-beige cannot be overlooked when looking for a company car. It allows the Lada Vesta SV Cross to stand out among the executive class only with its advantages while hiding the “obvious disadvantages”.
Blues "dark blue" 492
The melodious name for this color scheme is a successful marketing move. Dark blue is not my favorite color due to its operational characteristics. Definitely aimed at people who use their own transport for work.
Phantom "gray-blue" 496
The only enamel with chameleon capabilities. Under direct sunny colors, it is possible to clearly see several shades that successfully combine with each other. For such a body design, the indicated price may not show much. When choosing your LADA Vesta SW Cross, be sure to personally evaluate the “Phantom”: it can change your idea of domestic enamel for cars.
Pluto "gray" 608
Gray color is traditionally chosen by drivers who are accustomed to driving discreetly around their city.
An excellent option is to simply leave the yard without attracting the attention of others. “Pluto” hides all the summer dust that has settled from prying eyes, so washing is not a first necessity
Black pearl “black” 676
There is never too much black. Lada Vesta SV Cross with an X-shaped bumper in black looks extremely strict. Despite the high ground clearance, the station wagon is capable of playing the role of a corporate car.
Platinum "silver" 691
Another option for novice drivers is to skillfully hide their inexperience behind the wheel: scratches cannot be immediately noticed. “Platinum” is something in between in the entire range of colors for SV Cross.
