Lada Sport, a subsidiary of AvtoVAZ, which produces sports versions of Lada models, is ready to start assembling the Granta Drive Active model in a simplified configuration. Recall that Granta Drive Active is fundamentally different from the usual Granta sports body kit, embossed front seats and re-tuned suspension.
These differences will apparently be kept in the simplified version, but instead of the 106 hp engine because of the “Active”, the place under the hood will be taken by the engine, as in the usual anti-crisis Grants (Classic ’22 package) – VAZ-11182 of the Euro-2 ecological class, which develops 90 horsepower, according to Avtograd News.
Also, these cars will not have ABS, ESP and ERA-GLONASS systems. But there is good news: unlike the regular Granta Classic’22, the simplified Granta Drive Active is air-conditioned.
In addition to the pseudo-sport Granta Drive Active, the company Lada Sport produces loaded Vesta Sport sedans, but now there is a factory in Izhevsk that produces Vesta, which means that there is nothing to assemble the sports version from. The resumption of the assembly, according to the source, could take place in October this year and now there are only about 15 Vesta Sport products left in the finished product location of Lada Sport.
- Recently, photos of a car carrier with the new Vesta NG appeared on the network, but these cars turned out not to be for sale.
- “Driving” can now be viewed on RuTube.
