LADA Niva Legend received a 110 hp engine

On July 10, AVTOVAZ will finally resume production of LADA Niva Legend SUVs. In addition, as it became known on the AvtoVzglyad portal, in Togliatti, initially there was a shortage of components for Nivovsky engines, and engineers had to quickly create an engine control unit from the most accessible (in terms of price and availability) components .

And since AvtoVAZ had previously managed to resume production of the 1.6 with 8 valves, the engineers proposed to implant this unit under the hood of both Nivas. Perhaps, for the sake of greater unification and cost reduction, the auto giant will indeed start equipping its SUVs with “front-wheel drive” engines over time. But for now, the only one available is an 83 horsepower 1.7-liter naturally aspirated.

Meanwhile, the Shvabe company of the state-owned Rostec installed a certain 110-horsepower engine on the LADA Niva. True, where this mysterious option came from is not specified. This may be a downgraded version of the 1.8-liter “four”, with the installation with which the Togliatti company “Super-Avto” is experimenting – the AvtoVzglyad portal will certainly check if this is so.

In any case, Shvabe is ready to offer 110 horsepower SUVs to customers. For example, potential customers at the Innoprom-2022 fair were even shown an ambulance built on the basis of the powerful Niva. Such a machine can simultaneously transport a medical team of three doctors and two patients.

By the way, another new product from Innoprom was the heavy motorcycle Aurus Merlon. The AvtoVzglyad portal found out how the “main bicycle of all Russia” works.
