The body of the Lada Granta has several varieties: sedan, liftback and sport. Unlike the more outdated Lada Priora and Kalina models, the Granta does not have a station wagon option. Based on this, we can conclude that the Lada Granta is a car not intended for transporting cargo, but created for the movement of the driver and passengers with a sense of comfort.
Drive with little blood
The technical content depends on the configuration of the liftback. The “Standard” version has the suspension from the previous generation of Kalina, a “long” steering rack (such cars do not have an amplifier) and minimal sound insulation. In the “Norma”, which already has an EUR and a “short” rack, the front suspension has increased caster, and the sound insulation package has also been expanded. Finally, “Lux” can boast of stiffer suspensions and the most complete set of anti-noise. Therefore, two “Grants” in different configurations turned out to be very useful in the test. There are no revelations on the Norma: the omnivorous chassis is combined with a retuned, but still far from ideal, electric booster. In addition, the VAZ team mentioned a new vacuum booster and master brake cylinder. I also did not notice any global improvements in braking.

Review of Lada Granta 2022 from MegaRetr
Trunk Kalina sedan
The configuration in this version is the first model whose dimensions were calculated by a computer program. The model has been produced since 2004. The sedan's dimensions are similar to the station wagon, but due to the difference in design types, the sedan's interior seems more spacious:
- length 4040 mm;
- width 1700 mm;
- height 1500 mm;
- vehicle clearance 160 mm.
The trunk of the sedan is 400 liters. This figure can be increased by folding the passenger seats. Trunk volume Kalina sedan:
- trunk width – 97 cm;
- height – 51.5 cm;
- diagonal – 97 cm.
The sedan has a fairly spacious interior and a roomy trunk, although it is not specifically designed for transporting large cargo. You cannot put large items in the trunk, but it is easy to transport luggage up to 500 kg.
Width of grants with open doors
Dimensions of the VAZ Granta 1.6 AT sedan:
To avoid deterioration of the vehicle's cross-country ability, the difference in the track width of the front and rear wheels should not exceed the tire width by more than 25-30%.
The subcompact Lada Granta sedan is known on the Russian market as Datsun on-Do.
Important: currently in production.

Internal dimensions of Lada Granta
Equally important when purchasing are the internal parameters. They influence the comfort of being in a car and making long trips. An additional advantage is the possibility of numerous adjustments to the position of the seats, if there is enough space in the cabin to move them, rearrange them and several tilt modes.
For the stylish Lada Granta, the overall dimensions inside are really well thought out and allow all passengers and the driver to spend even long trips with maximum comfort.
The height from the junction of the seat and backrest is 910 mm for the second row and 990 for the front seats. The seat widths are 49 cm and 51 cm respectively. The distance from the second row seat to the first varies from 12 to 33.5 cm, which allows passengers to sit comfortably in the seats.
The height of the seats relative to the floor of the cabin for the second row is 34 cm, and for the first 28.5 cm (subject to slight adjustment). The distance from the pedals to the edge of the seat can be from 33.5 to 56 cm.
The trunk dimensions are another advantage of the Granta. The width of the compartment is 135 cm, but the width of the opening is much smaller (95 cm), which must be taken into account when loading the car. The depth of the trunk is 1 m and 2.5 cm. Its height is as much as 60 cm, which allows you to transport even a variety of household appliances without any problems.
The steering wheel parameters will certainly be of interest to the future driver. The width of the front pillar is 4 cm, but the diameter of the steering wheel is 37.5 cm. This arrangement is very convenient and allows you to easily drive the Grant. In addition, all other characteristics allow for comfortable trips on any route, with any load in the trunk and any number of passengers.
Characteristics of the Lada Granta interior
The interior is typical for a budget car. The gray plastic of the dashboard doesn't even try to seem soft. There is nothing superfluous on the dashboard - a speedometer, a tachometer, a scattering of pentagrams and a trip computer screen. It is simple and informative. The same can be said about the “twists” who manage the operation of the stove and air conditioner. The only thing that stands out on the front panel is the screen of the multimedia system equipped with a touchpad. It has good performance, but mediocre brightness: when exposed to sunlight, it becomes impossible to read data from the screen.
Photos of the Lada Granta Sport interior
But the rear passengers have practically nothing except seats and a roof over their heads - no ashtray, no USB connector, no niches in the rear doors where they could put anything, only pockets on the backs of the front seats. However, this is normal for a budget car.
Lada Granta - dimensions, ground clearance
The entire Lada Granta family is class B in size. If we talk about the sedan, the length of the Lada Granta sedan is 4.26 m, the width reaches 1.7 m, and the height is 1.5 m. The liftback has a length even smaller - 4.246 m, height and width remained unchanged. The wheelbase of both cars is the same: 2.476 m. The front track of the car is larger than the rear: 1.43 m versus 1.414 m. The clearance of the Lada Granta when fully loaded reaches 16 cm. As for the curb weight, it is 1.075 tons (for the liftback - 1.085 t.), and the total is 1.56 t. for both cars.
Naturally, the trunk volume of Lada Grants also varies. Oddly enough, the sedan has more - 480 hp, which is 40 hp. more liftback indicators. However, everything changes if you fold the seats: then the volume increases to 760 liters. All cars in the family are front-wheel drive, with a transverse engine. The steering is a classic rack and pinion design. The front suspension is independent, made according to the MacPherson pattern. The rear design is simpler - spring, semi-independent. The front brakes are disc brakes, with ventilation, and the rear brakes are traditional for budget VAZs - drum brakes. The gas tank of all cars is the same - 50 liters.
Body. Description of design
The LADA GRANTA body is all-metal, welded, load-bearing structure. The body is welded on an automatic line. Most of the body panels are galvanized to improve their anti-corrosion properties. Electrozinc coating on the inside is applied to the front and middle floor panels, body sides, the A-pillar amplifier, the outer panels of the trunk lid and doors, the front and rear fenders and a number of other parts. The rear wheel arches are galvanized on the outside. Electrozinc coating on both sides is applied to the rear panel, cross members and floor connectors, to the inner panel of the trunk lid and hood, to the trunk lid reinforcement and to a number of other parts. The thickness of the main body panels is 0.8 mm. The body elements are connected to each other by contact welding, and in hard-to-reach places - by semi-automatic electric welding in an inert gas environment. Panel joints and welds are sealed with mastic. After welding the panels, the body is phosphated, electrophoretic and secondary primers are applied and painted. Hidden body cavities are treated with a preservative at the factory. In the body structure, passive safety elements are designed taking into account current and future passive safety requirements. The front and rear bumpers are made of impact-resistant material to absorb impact energy during a collision. The B-pillars, roof and sills are reinforced. All doors are equipped with metal bars to improve resistance to side impacts. All glass is curved, polished, safety type. The windshield is three-layer, the rest are tempered. Rear window - with heating element. The windshield, rear and rear side windows are glued into the body openings and are part of its power circuit. Door glass is sliding. Depending on the configuration, the door glass can be driven by either mechanical or electric window lifters. Depending on the configuration, vehicles may be equipped with central locking, which simultaneously locks or unlocks all doors and the trunk lid. The rear doors are equipped with locking locks, which can be used when driving with children or in other cases when conventional locking cannot provide sufficient protection against unwanted door opening.
Internal dimensions of Lada Granta

Lada Granta Liftback • Becky's Pearl. › Logbook › 96. Truth is born in disputes! 07/28/2018.
And again I am glad to welcome my own subscribers. Now the entry will be devoted to a small dispute with a work colleague.
The owner of the Izh 2126 Oda claims that his car is more spacious than the Granta liftback.
Let's take a closer look at these cars, take comparative measurements of the interior and draw parallels.
We will not express our ideas; every sandpiper praises his swamp. Everyone remains with their own worldview. And you yourself must decide which car is larger, more comfortable and spacious.
Let's take a look at the factory dimensions of these cars.
For the base of convenience and space in the cabin, we will take the Vesta sedan, also for a work employee. Let's compare them together.
All this action was filmed on the phone, so especially don’t kick!
What did we learn from these measurements?! Whatever you say, Oda seems smaller than Granta, but some measurements show discrepancies. For example, the luggage compartment opening turned out to be significantly larger than that of the liftback.
There is certainly a plus in this, but the size of the luggage space itself is significantly smaller, both from official figures and visually.
Oda’s trunk door spans the entire width of the car, which is why the required opening is enlarged.
In a liftback, the luggage compartment door seems to be locked from inside the car, in other words, it is not the entire width of the body. It’s not for nothing that the car turned out to be more torsionally stronger than the sedan. The width of the opening box affects.
Based on measurements from inside the luggage compartment, we also see numbers that speak for themselves.
Also, the depth of the loading space allows you to make sure which trunk is larger and deeper.
Let's take a look at the car door cards.
As can be seen from the measurements, the width of Oda turned out to be slightly wider, by two centimeters. Oda door cards are flat and do not protrude. The doors are thin.
At the elbows, at the level of the elbow, Grant’s width was 140 cm. And at the level of the forearm, at the top of the cards, it was 137 cm.
But visually the place in Grant seems larger. This probably affects the height and length of the cabin. In Oda there seems to be less space, this is felt both behind the wheel, in the driver’s seat, and in the passenger seat. Everything seems narrow, the roof and pillar are pushing in. Maybe this is due to the tilt of the racks; on Oda they are inclined at the most obtuse angle than on Grant.

Serial production of the Lada Granta sedan began in 2011. Initially, it was planned that the new product would replace three models at once, the Samara and Kalina families. At first glance, everything looks logical.
Now Granta is the most modern model of AvtoVAZ OJSC. Its starting price is lower than that of Lada Kalina and Samara. Sales results show us the real picture.
In the first 5 months of 2013, the leader is the Granta (67,236 units sold), the Kalina is in second place (34,173 units), and only the Samara family is in sixth position among all Lada models (16,565 units).
Based on these indicators, it can be assumed that sooner or later the production of Lada Samara will be discontinued. As for the Kalina model, it will definitely remain on the assembly line, especially since this car was restyled in 2013.
But let's return to Lada Granta. The main goal that was set for the developers was to create the cheapest car in the company’s lineup. Therefore, we saved on almost everything.
Granta is built on a modernized Kalina platform. The suspension has been improved, although its design has not changed fundamentally: an independent McPherson suspension is installed in the front, and a dependent one in the rear. Ground clearance is 160 mm. Granta, in addition to the platform itself, also received doors from Lada Kalina.
Selecting the optimal Lada Granta Cross station wagon
Cross with eight-valve 1.6 (87 hp) and manual transmission in the basic Classic configuration costs 559,900 rubles.
The surcharge for a 16-valve valve of the same volume is 15,000, for a “robot” – another 25 thousand. Red Aurum, like other metallics, will cost 6,000 rubles. Having merged two models into a common family under the banner of restyling, AvtoVAZ got rid of the name Kalina. Now they are all Grants: hatchback, liftback, sedan and station wagon. The latter became the basis for the all-terrain version - Lada Granta Cross entered the market almost a year later than other modifications. For us, this is our first acquaintance with a representative of the updated line of the most affordable front-wheel drive vehicles from Tolyatti. To complete the picture, we took two cars: with a manual transmission and an AMT “robot”.
Before restyling, Kalina Cross existed in the VAZ range, and Granta is not very different from it. Thanks to this, she not only looked like the older Vesta, but also grew by 44 mm due to the front overhang extended by the bumper. The interior remained recognizably Kalinovsky, although the button illumination changed from green to white, and additional decor appeared around the central ventilation deflectors.
The ergonomic features are generally inherited. The steering column still does not have a reach adjustment. True, all Crosses are equipped with new front seats with height adjustment and poor lateral support. Alas, even in the lowest position you sit a little higher than you want. Visibility is excellent. But the build quality is traditionally inconsistent. In an attempt to close the window, you pull the window lifter button towards yourself and pull the entire block out of the armrest.
It is incorrect to compare head-on the same-named configurations of regular and elevated station wagons. For example, the top-end Luxe version of the Cross has parking sensors in the rear bumper and a light sensor. In the more democratic Comfort, the cross-country Granta is richer in climate control, which even in a single-zone version is more convenient than an air conditioner. You can roughly estimate that the surcharge for increased ground clearance by 18 mm, larger wheels and a practical body kit made of unpainted plastic is about thirty thousand rubles.
It’s a shame that for the Cross the stabilization system is not offered at all, while in any of the Grants it can be obtained by raising the level of equipment to the maximum Luxe Prestige. Cross is also deprived of a four-speed Jatco automatic transmission: all two-pedal cars are equipped with a modified AMT robot. We already met him at Vesta, but there he assists the 122-horsepower 1.8 engine. Granta has a different engine, and the displacement is two hundred cubic meters more modest.
On the outside, our two 16-valve station wagons produce 106 hp. absolutely the same. And in the cabin of a car with an AMT “robot”, the selector is only partially reminiscent of West’s. It has the same pad as in Vesta, but the lever itself and the podium are different. There is no parking position. The engine should be started in neutral, and can be turned off in gear. Then in the parking lot it is not necessary to secure the car with the handbrake.
The finished AMT gearbox works tolerably well. I liked her on Grant even more than on Vesta. When driving calmly, the “robosarai” is generally a good boy: it starts off confidently, quickly shifts up and is a little impudent, with a shift downwards. As the pace increases, pauses in switching increase, which are characteristic of all “robots” of this type, but this is not very annoying. With the creeping mode it became easier in traffic jams: release the brake - you roll. However, the clutch works with slippage, and Granta still protects it. After standing for a while, the clutch opens, and when gas is added, it closes with a slight delay.
Outside the asphalt, the “robot” does not cause much trouble. The clutch operates smoothly and it is convenient to control the traction. On developed terrain, there is a lack of an assistant when starting on a climb, which only regular Grants have. In order to move uphill without recoil, you have to assist the box with the parking brake lever. It is better not to allow one of the drive wheels to hang out, but to overcome the folds of the terrain while moving. Highly located bumpers do not give much reason to fear for their safety.
A station wagon with a manual drives about the same on rough roads. In theory, manual control allows you to manage traction more efficiently, but in practice, you can completely stall on a climb, which I was not able to do with the “robot”. And yet, it is the three-pedal Cross that leaves the most pleasant impression, allowing you to make full use of the engine’s capabilities.
In the city it’s easier to start on time and quickly integrate into the flow, and on the highway it’s easier to overtake. The cable mechanism is well tuned, the clarity of switching does not raise any questions. The accelerator drive is sensitive, the responsiveness is almost carburetor-like. I don’t see the point of paying even 25 thousand extra for a “robot”. According to statistics, Grants in general and Cross in particular are usually purchased with a manual transmission, and only every tenth buyer chooses two-pedal cars.
The ability of VAZ cars to drive differently, even if they belong to the same batch, has been repeatedly noted. Ours are managed the same way. The Kaluga electric power steering provides them with a light steering wheel with a clear zero position and a logical increase in reactive force. Both Ladas immediately respond to the steering wheel’s deflection with a roll, coming to the arc with a slight delay and turning slightly as it develops. Both begin to slide their front axles to the outside of the turn early due to the modest grip properties of the Pirelli Cinturato P1 tires.
But the two Grants slow down differently. The one with “mechanics” is disappointing with its weak brakes. The free play of the pedal is indecently large, the moment of operation is difficult to predict. The drive in a station wagon with a “robot” works much better. No differences were noticed in the suspension operation. Any of the Grants pleases with excellent smoothness and some kind of exorbitant energy intensity. At the same time, Granta Cross no longer suffers from the early response of shock absorbers on rebound, which is characteristic of the “cross” Kalina.
Apart from AvtoVAZ, no one else offers inexpensive “sheds”. The main competitor of the economic Grant is its own Largus, which was minimally updated in the summer. The most popular (41% of sales) is the Granta station wagon in the inexpensive Classic configuration for 505,500 rubles. The most popular Largus Classic is more expensive: 624–677 thousand. By the standards of the segment, the price difference is noticeable, but people are willing to pay extra for the more spacious Largus, which, based on the results of the first half of 2019, sells three and a half times better than the Granta.
Largus, like Granta, has a Cross version, and it accounts for as much as 38% of Largus sold. The upbeat Granta has not yet gained momentum, but the results of the first month suggest good potential. Moreover, the Grant Cross is taken at the top, albeit with “mechanics”. Well, we must not forget that crossovers accounted for 65% of sales of Kalina station wagons. Cross looks more elegant, and a couple of centimeters under the belly are not superfluous. So we can assume that subsequently at least half of all sold "sheds" of the Granta family will be cross-matched.

Behind the scenes
What are the characteristics of the trunk?
What is the actual volume in liters? If you fold the rear row of seats, the Granta's trunk volume will reach 770 liters, and in the standard position of the rear passenger row, the trunk volume will be 440 liters. This model is the first ever liftback among the entire AvtoVAZ family. In terms of luggage compartment capacity in its standard state, the Granta managed to outstrip such a popular European hatchback as the Volkswagen Golf. However, with the rear row seats folded, the Golf takes the lead thanks to the trunk volume of 1200 liters, which turned out to be unattainable for the Lada designers. After all, the primary goal was to maintain a single wheelbase and platform similar to a sedan.
So, what is the real opinion of Granta owners about the capacity and ease of use of the luggage section, because its volume in liters is quite impressive. The Internet is replete with an incredible variety of photographs posted by the owners. Sometimes the Lada Granta liftback can plunge you into amazement - how much useful luggage its luggage compartment is ready to accommodate. However, in reality, not everything becomes as rosy with the amount of space in the trunk as it is positioned in advertising.
The rear seats have the only ability to fold completely when the front seats are moved close to the instrument panel. The inconvenience is that the rear headrest requires preliminary dismantling before folding. The top shelf in the luggage compartment can be removed without any extra effort, which is very convenient when transporting large items. Due to this action, space will not be added, but the luggage will not rest against anything. Niches on the right and left sides are suitable for storing medium-sized bags or a set of essential tools in case of an unexpected breakdown.
Above these technological recesses there are hangers designed for bags, which eliminates the need to clutter the rear seats with them. There is a light above the left niche, but it turns on when the low beam of the head optics is activated. An excellent solution for cloudy weather or dark periods of the day, however, the inconvenience is that you may forget to turn on the headlights beforehand.
Under the luggage mat you can find a full-fledged spare wheel, to which the manufacturer has added traditional attributes: a jack and a wheel wrench. There is enough space in the niche to accommodate a spare wheel with a large radius (if you wish to install 16-inch wheels). There is still room for the tool. This is easy to verify, you just have to look at the photo.
The luggage compartment mat in the LADA Granta liftback made of rubber has not become popular among owners. The quality of the material is a little worse than expected, and it will not be possible to stick a traditional “motorist’s bag” to its surface with Velcro. The option of a rug with a pile covering will not be practical, since it is subject to the risk of contamination from spills of various liquids or dirt.
The rubber cover in the trunk can be easily placed on top of the standard one. If the niche for the spare wheel will be used for other luggage, then you should take into account the fact that one mat will rest against the niches on the sides of the trunk. If you place any object above the spare wheel niche, it will fall into its recess.
Features of car modernization
Lada Granta Liftback is the most popular and sought-after model
The most popular among buyers is the Lada Granta liftback, released for free sale in 2014 and becoming a new modernized version of the sedan from AvtoVAZ. In many characteristics, these two cars are similar. However, judging by the first impression, the liftback looks much brighter and more expensive than the sedan with its clearly budget trim. Manufacturers have successfully given a second life to the sedan, using new modern trim along with sporty elements. At the same time, the overall dimensions of the car also received significant changes.
First of all, attention is drawn to the new bumper configuration and the fact that the liftback can be driven with any type of transmission. The air intake became wider and longer, and the side edges of the fairing were improved using plastic inserts, in the center of which fog lights were placed. The front optics themselves are now made more elegant and sophisticated, which, in turn, adds progressiveness to the car. Unlike the sedan, the door to the luggage compartment has been completely modernized and equipped with large glass, adding visibility from the cabin.
How to choose the most favorable conditions?
Buying a car at a car dealership will be profitable if the organization provides various discounts or promotions. It is undesirable to make a purchase immediately after receiving the required amount of funds, so it is advisable to monitor available offers for some time to make a profitable purchase.
How to buy a car at a car dealership? To do this, it is recommended to take into account the following nuances:
- when visiting an organization, you should communicate directly with the manager to find out what promotions and bonus programs are offered by the salon;
- all available offers are evaluated, and it is advisable to inform the employee of the organization that a more expensive car can be chosen if significant discounts are available;
- if a promotion offers the addition of points to a card, this should not be considered a discount, since in any case, to use these points you will have to make a repeat purchase;
- If mats are offered as a gift, you can ask whether they can be replaced with a more interesting offer, for example, winter tires or other important devices.
Even in the car market, competition is fierce, so each car dealership strives to attract buyers in different ways. Buying a car from a dealership can be a truly profitable decision if you independently insist on receiving a certain benefit.

The overall dimensions of any car have a significant impact on comfort. If this concerns the base, then the passengers led by the driver are the first to feel the convenience, and when it comes to the luggage compartment, then the practicality of the car comes to the fore. Ground clearance allows you to feel confident on country roads. So you can continue to give a lot of examples.
Such statements do not ignore the heroine of today’s article - the domestic model Lada Granta.
If we take a closer look at the interior, we immediately notice the commendable design of the seats, when constructing them the manufacturer set the goal of ensuring the most comfortable seating for all participants in the voyage.
Internal dimensions
Inside, the interior is quite spacious, and does not differ much in all three body types. There is enough space for the driver's and front passenger's legs, even if the legs are almost straightened and not bent at the knees. There is a little less space in the back seat, but at the same time, your knees do not rest against the back of the front seats.
The width of the seats is impressive and can accommodate large passengers. The same applies to the driver's seat. The steering wheel is located quite conveniently and has a large distance to the seat. Based on the width of the rear seat, the car can easily accommodate three people of average build.
Also, it is worth noting the difference in the size of the luggage compartment. In the sedan and sport body, the trunk has the same volume - 520 liters, but in the liftback, the trunk is increased to 760 liters, thanks to the modified body.
Price of Lada Granta sedan on the secondary market

Review of state employees Logan and Grant from Elena Lisovskaya
All texts were written by me, are authored by Google, included in the original Yandex texts and notarized. For any borrowing, we immediately write an official letter on company letterhead in support of search networks, your hosting and domain registrar.
Next we go to court. Don’t try your luck, we have more than thirty successful Internet projects and have already won a dozen lawsuits.
What external dimensions can Grant please?
For clarity, we present the characteristics of the body in comparison with its relative, the Lada Kalina.
- So, in length the Lada Granta defeats its rival with a difference of 220 mm, because this parameter reaches 4260 mm.
- The width is 1700 mm, similar to that of Kalina. The differences are not big if you take the sedan version.
- Parity is maintained in height, since this figure for both “Russians” is 1500 mm.
- A similar picture is observed when comparing bases - 2476 mm for each.
Thanks to the increase in body length, the Granta has a large amount of free space in its luggage compartment, 440 liters compared to 355 liters for its rival.
The rear track of the Lada Granta in the liftback version reaches 1414 mm. This allows the model to have good stability and smooth movement over light road irregularities.
The size between the edge of the front bumper and the center of the front axle is 804 mm, and the same figure in the rear is 980 mm.
The ground clearance of the model considered here, as in the case of the sedan body, boasts a value of 160 mm. However, in the Lada Granta model line in the liftback version there are versions, for example, equipped with automatic transmissions, the ground clearance of which is slightly reduced, or rather, to 140 mm.
This indicator, in terms of its significance, is among the best in terms of cross-country ability and proudly migrated from its predecessor, the Kalina. There is enough clearance to be guaranteed to overcome:
- unpaved areas with a scattering of hummocks and holes;
- urban areas;
- snow-covered areas of country roads;
- small hills with uncritically steep slopes.
Dimensions of the VAZ 2107 car and other characteristics
Production of the legendary seven at the Volzhsky Automobile Plant began in March 1982 and continued for more than 30 years. The car still enjoys well-deserved popularity in our country and abroad. The dimensions of the car allow it to be classified as class B according to the international standard or group 2 according to the national standard. VAZ 2107 is currently being assembled at Izhmash and in the Chechen Republic.
The Seven was exported under the name Lada 1500, Riva or Nova. It is an improved luxury version of the 2105 model. A number of changes were made to the design of the prototype, in particular the electrical circuit, attachments and the engine itself were changed. The VAZ 2107 has an improved interior; the front row has seats with integrated headrests.
Geometric parameters of the car
The car has a monocoque three-volume sedan-type body in the classic version. The engine compartment is located in the front part, the closed passenger compartment is in the middle, and the trunk is located at the rear. There are 4 doors for the driver and passengers to enter; the engine compartment is closed by a hood that rises forward. This scheme has become most widespread in the automotive industry as the most successful.
The table of dimensions of the VAZ 2107 car is given in the technical documentation; the main parameters are:
total length at the extreme points of the bumpers | 4145 mm |
greatest width: along the door shirts | 1620 mm |
greatest width: according to rear view mirrors | 1740 mm |
base - the distance between the wheel axles | 2424 mm |
vehicle height without antenna | 1446 mm |
ground clearance | 120 mm |
for vehicles equipped with a neutralizer | 90 mm |
distance between the center lines of the wheels in front | 1365 mm |
rear wheel center distance | rear 1321 mm |
A detailed diagram with precise indication of linear dimensions is indicated in the official publication of the vehicle operating instructions.
Machine weight characteristics
For its time, the VAZ 2107 was an excellent car that was successfully sold, including outside our country. The machine's technical characteristics were not inferior to its analogues at a lower price; the design scheme used is highly reliable. The weight of the equipped vehicle is just over a ton, which allows it to demonstrate good power capacity.
The maximum permissible load is 400 kg, in other words the car can carry five adult passengers. If the quantity is smaller, luggage can be transported in a special compartment. A rational distribution of masses between the axles ensures good stability and controllability of the vehicle.
The small dimensions of the VAZ 2107 model, optimal weight for its size and a powerful engine provide the car with good dynamics and maneuverability. The successful design and low price predetermined the car's commercial success and, despite its advanced age, it still does not lose popularity.
A little about the grant
As you know, the manufacturer created the Lada Granta based on an earlier model, the Kalina. The car is now supplied to the market in four modifications:
- liftback;
- sedan;
- hatchback;
- sport.
There are also three types of configuration. Both the luxury version and the “Standard” and “Norma” are equipped with 1.6-liter engines of varying power. At first, the car was supplied with power plants with 8 valves, but then 16 valves appeared.
All modifications use a 5-position gearbox. It can be automatic or manual. The front wheels are driven.
The manufacturer recommends using only AI-95 for refueling, but many claim that the car feels great when running on 92.
According to the standard, fuel consumption per hundred kilometers is:
- in urban conditions – 8.7-9.3;
- on highways – 5.8-6.2;
- mixed cycle - 7.2-7.3 liters.
Granta is able to reach a maximum speed of more than 168 kilometers per hour. It needs a maximum of 12 seconds to accelerate to hundreds.
The gasoline tank is installed behind the Grant, under the body, on the right side. This arrangement allows the car to be perfectly balanced, which, in turn, makes it easier to drive. The fuel tank is made of plastic.
Among other things, the designers also made certain changes to the suspension design during the development of the car in question. In particular, a wider caster was installed in the front, this had a positive effect on the vehicle's directional stability.
At the same time, the steering rack was also updated; it is now somewhat shorter than the one installed on Kalina, thanks to this, only three turns of the steering wheel are required for a full turn. This made driving the car much easier
The stabilizers that provide lateral stability are stronger, as are the body supports.

New Lada: VAZ 2190 Granta 8kl
During the modernization, attention was also paid to the rear suspension. So Granta became the first car in the history of the Volzhsky Automobile Plant to have negative wheel camber values. And this measure greatly improves the vehicle's handling.
And this measure greatly improves the vehicle's handling.
Advantages of various modifications of Grants
Dimensions of Lada Granta Sport
The car is produced in 3 modifications - standard, standard and luxury. They are first distinguished by body sizes. The configurations affected the bumper, mirrors, and radiator mesh. The luxury modification received door moldings, alloy wheels and fog lights.
The most powerful Grant accelerates to 100 km/h in just 12 seconds. The sound insulation of the cabin is not perfect, but it is quite good, so that at this speed the noise does not cause discomfort. The creators of the Grant took care of the safety of the car. The interior is equipped with inertial belts and a safety cushion for the driver. The norm and luxury models also have airbags for the front passenger.
The interior of the cabin, when upgrading the model class, differs in various additions that make the operation of the car more convenient and enjoyable. Even if these are small details, such as interior trim, a container for glasses, a broken back of the rear seats, but this brings not only aesthetic pleasure, but also significant convenience. The climate system is included in the luxury model range, as is remote control of the door locks and trunk of the car.
It would be useful to have heated front seats, especially in latitudes with harsh climates. And the integrated audio system will help set the mood - anyone will want to take their favorite music with them on the road. Especially if the road ahead is long. It should be noted that huge distances are not a problem for Grants. This is a strong car and quite economical - fuel consumption for the suburban cycle is about 6 liters per 100 km, and for the combined cycle - only 7.5. Given its dimensions, the machine differs in maneuverability and in urban conditions consumes only 8.5-9.5 liters per 100 km.
The Lada Granta meets the expectations of car enthusiasts - a small-sized body, but a spacious interior, low cost, but a reliable car. This whole complex of features served as a guarantee of people's love and the highest popularity of the car.

VAZ 2107 dimensions and dimensions. General information
VAZ-2107 and its modifications are five-seater passenger cars of a classic layout with a front longitudinal arrangement of the power unit and rear drive wheels. Engine - four-stroke, four-cylinder, eight-valve, in-line, carburetor or fuel injection. The body is a supporting structure, all-metal, welded. Body type – sedan.
The VAZ-2107 car is equipped with a carburetor engine of the VAZ-2103 model with a displacement of 1.5 liters. The modification of the VAZ-21074 car is distinguished by a VAZ-2106 model engine with a displacement of 1.6 liters.
Since 2001, a modification of the VAZ-2107-20 car has been produced with a VAZ-2104 engine with a displacement of 1.5 liters and distributed fuel injection. The mechanical part of this engine (cylinder block, connecting rod and piston group, crankshaft, cylinder head) is identical to the VAZ-2103 engine, and traditional power and ignition systems have given way to components of a modern electronic engine control system. The VAZ-2104 engine is equipped with a more powerful generator and a starter with a planetary gearbox. The installation of an engine with distributed fuel injection on the VAZ-2107-20, as well as the use of a gasoline vapor recovery system and a catalytic converter in the exhaust system, made it possible to reduce the toxicity of exhaust gases and fuel consumption, and increase the reliability of engine starting in cold weather. The body, chassis and transmission remained unchanged.
Overall dimensions of the VAZ-2107 car and its modifications
The VAZ-21047 car is a modification of the VAZ-2104 car. Body type – station wagon. Engine VAZ-2103, with a displacement of 1.5 liters. The front part of the cabin and the instrument panel are the same as on the VAZ-2107. The electrical circuit of a VAZ-21047 car differs from that of a sedan car, since the glass of the station wagon tailgate is equipped with a cleaner and washer, and the rear lights have a different shape.

VAZ-2107
Zhiguli/Lada 1500SL/Lada Riva is a rear-wheel drive passenger car, the latest “classic” model, produced by Volzhsky Automobile Plant OJSC since 1982. The car was created on the basis of the base model of the family - VAZ 2105. This model was equipped with a larger engine of 1.6 liters. with distributed injection (in order to comply with Euro-2 environmental standards introduced in the Russian Federation in 2006), which generally changed the engine compartment layout towards the inaccessibility of the units.
The differences are already noticeable in appearance: a different design for the front part of the hood with stamping for a metal chrome radiator grille, new rear block lights. Inside, the car was fully consistent with the then ideas about modern aesthetics (early 1980s): a “glare-free” instrument panel with a tachometer, additional service sensors and instruments. Anatomical seats with improved finishing quality look more solid compared to the same type of VAZ-2105: the front backrests are made integral with headrests, and the rear backrest has a special folding armrest. But for such equipment, sellers (and previously the state) ask for a larger amount than even for the classic VAZ-2106 or the front-wheel drive three-door hatchback VAZ-2108. The “Seven” has improved passive safety, good all-round visibility, limited, however, by the rear pillars and high seat backs, but the advantages of dynamic engines are negated by poor assembly and the lack of anti-corrosion coating on the body. The scourge of all rear-wheel drive Zhigulis is also depressing - the high loading height of the trunk, problems with the engine block, broken camshaft belts and loose bolted joints of cars produced between 1990 and 1996.
Initially, VAZ-2107 -21072, -21074 cars were equipped with four-cylinder carburetor engines of models 2103, 2105 and 2106, respectively. These engines can be found with unified (since 1987) four- and five-speed (VAZ-2112) gearboxes. The five-speed gearbox for the VAZ-21074 was slightly modernized in 1992. Since 1990, engines have been equipped with connecting rods of a new design, and four years later, VAZ-21011 engines with a camshaft chain drive began to be installed on the less common modification of the VAZ-21072. All engines for the “Seven” since 1995 are not equipped with a PC-492 breaker relay, which can be determined when braking with the parking brake by the constant glow of its indicator lamp.
For the European market, in accordance with environmental protection requirements, the VAZ-21073 sedan has been produced since 1991, equipped with a 1.7-liter engine producing 84 hp. with central injection system and catalytic converter. For the Chinese market, the VAZ-2107 model of the N71 series was produced with a 66-horsepower 1.45-liter short-stroke VAZ-21033-10 engine running on A-76 gasoline (the other “sevens” only run on gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91). Also, on special orders, the plant produces expensive VAZ-21079 sedans with a high-speed Wankel rotary piston engine, which, if it breaks down, is very rare. True, in this case it can only be repaired at a VAZ branded service center. Ordinary consumers probably don’t need such a voracious and unstable car at high speeds. The spring suspension of all wheels is quite energy-intensive and comfortable when driving. However, creaks of the instrument panel, outdated ergonomics of the workspace, and non-linear coasting (with little information steering, you constantly have to control the trajectory of movement) are annoying. Large and uneven gaps between the panels of the doors, hood and body - these problems widen over time due to the natural wear and tear of the car and fatigue damage and deformation of the power elements of the body.
Features of the bodies of “Ladovo” models
ATTENTION! A completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption has been found! Don't believe me? An auto mechanic with 15 years of experience also didn’t believe it until he tried it. And now he saves 35,000 rubles a year on gasoline! Read more"
Since we started with QOL, let’s continue this topic. For the frame of Ladovsky models without glued glass, the quality of life is 14 thousand N*m/degree, which is a very good mark. And with glass this figure is even higher.
The testing of the Lada body in the rear turned out to be especially good. Thus, in the rear door opening, after a tough diagonal pressure test, the changes were recorded as only 1.5 mm, whereas on most foreign cars the same figure was 5-6 mm.
The body design of the Lada Largus and other similar models fundamentally complies with current European standards in terms of protecting passengers and the driver. The front subframe on Ladovsky models is one of the most important body elements responsible for this indicator. It is even considered an auxiliary spar, significantly increasing the strength of the body, as well as absorbing impact force.
The high quality of life of the Ladovsky body also has a beneficial effect on obtaining high-quality sound comfort in a car showroom. The frame does not twist over bumps and bumps, no deformations or anomalies occur between the interior and body elements, which ultimately has a positive effect on the absence of squeaks.
Note. Of course, in addition to the quality of life indicator, the quality of interior elements also affects the high level of sound comfort. They were obtained through proper calculation so as not to come into contact with the body in places where squeaking might occur. This was achieved by fixing the plastic components with special fasteners and minimizing the various gaps that arise one way or another between them and the body.
A lot of original parts, interchangeability of interior elements between Ladovsky models, enlargement of some parts of the body - all this was only a plus. In particular, the increase in some body elements led to a decrease in their number, which reduced production time and had a positive effect on performance.
Lada Largus
Called a budget station wagon with increased cross-country ability. The body was assembled based on Dasia/Renault Logan. The car was initially adapted for the market of Eastern European countries.
Even in the basic version of Logan, engineers took effective measures to enhance anti-corrosion protection, using protective inserts for the wheel arches. In addition, anti-corrosion and anti-gravity protection is installed over larger areas than before (at Samarov’s vehicles), with a thicker layer of mastic.
Here are some more innovations:
- The engine compartment is well protected. Additional protection was used correctly;
- The front suspension reinforcement has been increased. This was achieved through the use of leverage;
- The washer reservoir has become larger and holds more fluid;
- The wheels received protective aprons;
- The change got a torpedo;
- The bumper and radiator grille have been modernized.
It is noteworthy that the station wagon is made in 2 body versions: 5-seater and 7-seater. In addition, a van is also produced. The price of cars is low - only 350 thousand rubles and good comfort. When compared with foreign cars, the cost is heaven and earth.
In general, the Largus exterior is designed in such a way that it makes it possible to rightfully call the car roomy. A large family, along with bags and suitcases, as well as pets, fits comfortably inside. As for the design, the abundance of straight lines gives the car some speed and dynamism to the slightly clumsy family station wagon.
Geometric dimensions
If the so-called overall dimensions of the body were presented above, now we will talk about geometric ones. Knowing these dimensions will not only allow you to form an opinion about the car or help you choose, but will also make it possible to carry out professional repairs.
Video on how to take geometric dimensions of a body
The set of distances between certain points of the body, called control points, is called geometry. They are initially installed by the manufacturer at the factory. It is clear that these points provide an ideal, precise position.
To check the compliance of the geometric dimensions of Lada cars, the owner must measure certain distances shown in the photo below.
It also wouldn't hurt to measure these dimensions.
For more detailed information on how to remove the geometric dimensions of the body with your own hands, see the video and photo. You can also read instructions about this in other publications on our site.
