Cargo Granta now appears in a trim that mirrors the Classic’22 co-driver variant—no driver airbag and without ABS. This setup speaks to a practical, no-frills approach that keeps the truck light on the road while preserving essential reliability for work trips.
What has Grant lost?
For a truck, the balance between weight and load is a high-stakes equation. If the vehicle is too heavy, fuel efficiency suffers and handling becomes cumbersome. If it is too light, the ride can feel unsettled, and the spring suspension does not always compensate for rough roads. In these conditions, both the driver and the tires play a critical role in safety. The absence of certain electronic aids means attention to load, tire condition, and speed becomes even more important to avoid incidents and to limit potential damage when a problem arises.
In the anti-crisis configuration, the ERA-GLONASS module remains in place but without the automatic emergency call function. An on-board computer takes care of basic diagnostics, and power steering, central locking, electric windows and mirrors, and audio preparation stay intact. This combination emphasizes straightforward reliability while maintaining essential convenience features for daily operation.
The engine is a second ecological class with eight valves, delivering a balance of efficiency and performance suitable for urban and rural work alike. This configuration prioritizes fuel economy and lower emissions without sacrificing the ruggedness needed for demanding schedules.
What’s the price?
The on-board platform carries a price tag of 981,900 rubles as listed officially. An extended version with an additional 300 mm of length adds a modest premium, while the version with the kung option sits higher on the price scale by 33 thousand rubles, reflecting added hardware or configuration choices tailored to specific use cases.
