An extended version of the LADA Vesta NG, called Aura, was suddenly noticed in the service area of one of the capital’s AVTOVAZ dealers. Why the VIP sedan
The community “Lada Vesta – Lada Vesta NG 2023” on the social network VKontakte published photos of a black LADA Aura sedan taken in the repair area of an unnamed Moscow dealer. You can distinguish the VIP version from the ‘regular’ one by the size of the rear door – which is significantly larger because the Aura’s wheelbase has been increased by 150mm compared to the Vesta. In addition, there is a nameplate on the trunk lid with the name of the new model. The interior of the captured sedan is lined with light leatherette, but the most interesting thing seems to be hidden under the hood.
Judging by the transmission selector, the car is equipped with the recently introduced 1.8 Evo power unit – a tandem of a deeply modernized VAZ-21179 engine with a power of 122 hp. Of. and a Chinese variator. In principle, AVTOVAZ does not disclose the brand of the gearbox and calls the manufacturer a certain “eastern partner”. Series production of LADA Aura will not start until the second half of 2024.
