The anticipated release window for the Moskvich 6 in the top-end Techno package is the latter half of January. Makarychev notes that this schedule reflects the brand’s plan to expand the model range with higher equipment levels that emphasize comfort, technology, and safety for modern urban driving.
The Techno package adds a range of premium features designed to elevate everyday usability. Highlights include welcome light animation, a panoramic roof, and 18-inch black alloy wheels that give the sedan a distinctive, sportier silhouette. Practical conveniences include an electric tailgate and a 12V socket in the trunk, along with advanced safety systems such as blind-spot monitoring, a reverse cross-traffic warning system, and rear collision monitoring. For family safety, curtain airbags and electric rear door locks are included to prevent unauthorized access by children when the vehicle is parked or unattended.
At present, the Moskvich 6 is offered in two trim levels: Comfort and Business. The base Comfort configuration comes with 17-inch wheels, cruise control, rear-view cameras, and keyless entry for ease of access. The Business variant adds features like an electrically adjustable driver seat, enhanced climate control, and a 7-inch instrument cluster display for clearer, more informative driving data.
Two engine options are listed for the Moskvich 6. A 1.5-liter turbocharged engine pairs with a CVT, delivering 136 horsepower for smooth everyday driving. A second engine option, producing 174 horsepower, comes with a robotic transmission, offering higher performance for drivers seeking more dynamic acceleration and responsive gear shifts.
Earlier reports also indicated that the Moskvich 5 crossover could enter markets in the first half of 2024, signaling a broader push to expand the brand’s lineup and meet diverse customer needs across regions. [Citation: Moskvich brand communications and market updates].
