In Sochi, at the exhibition “Eurasia is Our Home”, an extended version of the LADA Vesta was presented, which should replace foreign cars from “unfriendly countries” in government garages by 2025. All the details about the car will be revealed at Russia’s main macroeconomic forum, SPIEF, to be held on June 14, but for now only a few details are known and most importantly the price.
Despite numerous insiders and “illegal news”, the new AvtoVAZ managed to surprise even before the official show: instead of the name Signature, “signature” or “autograph” spread all over the Internet, the elongated version of Vesta received the name Aura, registered by Togliatti in 2021. Little Aurus, no more, no less, but also of the “golden ratio” to emphasize the status of civil servants.
The car was created as a solution to the problem of special-purpose garages, which fell into a “drinking pose” due to the mass exodus of well-known importers from the long-suffering Russian market. No repair, no service, no upgrade. A Soviet man’s dream has come true: an official will drive a Zhiguli!
Yes, the VIP-Vesta is 25 cm longer and the space gained has gone into the legs of the passenger in the back – all for comfort. Not such a simple modification, we note: a 122-horsepower VAZ-21179 engine and a variator so that it does not jerk on the road and does not distract from the affairs of the sovereign. She also gets a top-notch stereo system and much “richer” interior trim. The cost is expected to be $25,000, an astonishing measure of the price and confidence in its home currency for a country determined to give up the “pathetic green paper.”
Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin and Cuban Manuel Marrero Cruz were the first to inspect the novelty. Both were pleased with what they saw: the guest liked the comfort, and Mikhail Vladimirovich – the similarity between price and quality. It remains only to add that AVTOVAZ plans to launch LADA Vesta Aura conveyor belt assembly in 2025.
