Maxim Sokolov, general manager of the auto giant Togliatti, shared the long-awaited news: the main domestic SUV has been waiting for an increase in power. The Niva will finally come with a more efficient power unit, which will be borrowed from the updated LADA Vesta.
In less than a thousand years, the dream of many generations of fans of Russia’s most popular SUV, the LADA Niva, became a reality. On the legend of domestic fields and black earth, the conqueror of virgin lands and sometimes simply undisputed in Russia, the car will come with a more powerful engine.
For decades, this was written about on forums and discussed around campfires and in summer cottages. And here it is, we’ve been waiting: Vesta’s motors are being modified for Niva Legend. The basic modification will be equipped with a VAZ-21129 aspirated engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and a capacity of 106 horsepower. s., but Niva Sport will receive a 1.8-liter VAZ-21179 engine with 122 horsepower.
Recall that the last one was born in 2016 – maximum power is reached at about 5900 rpm, and torque is 170 Nm at 4200 rpm. Consumption – 10 l / 100 km in the city and 8 l / 100 km in the combined cycle. How the Niva will behave with such a fast engine is a question, the answer to which we will know only from experience.
