Technical characteristics of VAZ 2121 (4×4) 21214 1.7 MT 4WD, 83 hp. (2002-2020 production) - all about this car on the website

VAZ 21214 is a passenger car, characterized by increased cross-country ability, equipped with a five-speed gearbox and a transmission with permanent all-wheel drive. In addition, there is a two-stage transfer case. Body type - “Hatchback”, the morally and technically outdated “four-speed” gearbox, which was equipped with previous models, was replaced on 21214 by a more modern and functional five-speed gearbox.

History of Niva

VAZ 21214 is a passenger car, characterized by increased cross-country ability, equipped with a five-speed gearbox and a transmission with permanent all-wheel drive. In addition, there is a two-stage transfer case.

In 1969-1970, VAZ chief designer V.S. Solovyov came up with the initiative to develop an all-terrain vehicle for residents of rural areas. His proposal was the result of the development of the so-called “type” of the USSR Ministry of Automotive Industry for 1971-1980.

The first production model of the VAZ-2121 rolled off the VAZ assembly line on April 5, 1977. Soon after the launch of the assembly line, the production plan for the all-wheel drive vehicle was increased from 25,000 vehicles per year to 50,000 vehicles, and then to 70,000 units precisely due to success in export markets.

In an interview with Itogi magazine, the creator of the Niva, Pyotr Mikhailovich Prusov, said that the car was named in honor of Prusov’s children - Natalya and Irina, and the children of the first chief designer of VAZ V.S. Solovyov - Vadim and Andrey [

The vehicle body is classified as a station wagon, which means it has a spacious trunk, the volume of which ranges from 265 to 980 liters, and a spacious interior. Niva 21214, the technical characteristics of which ensure its acceleration to 100 km/h in 17 seconds, is classified as an all-terrain vehicle. The car is not intended for reckless drivers or those who like to drive fast. Its maximum speed is 137 km/h, which, in principle, is typical for an SUV. The car has three doors - two at the front for passengers and the driver, and one at the back for the luggage compartment. The cabin has five seats, so the car is a passenger car.

This car can be driven on any road. It is designed both for off-road driving and for city highways.

Driving on roads of poor quality is not particularly difficult for the Niva 212214. The car is well controlled, reliable and stable on steep climbs, descents, turns, humps, holes, depressions, etc. The car interior is roomy, comfortable, and equipped with a safety system. The car body is made of all-metal material, which protects it from external mechanical damage.

In October 2016, on the LADA 4×4, VAZ introduced a bearing into the front hubs that does not require periodic adjustment. The car has a modernized steering knuckle, independent mounting of the front axle gearbox and gas-filled shock absorbers

Niva has also achieved success in motorsport, becoming a winner of such prestigious rally raids as Paris-Dakar, Paris-Tunisia, Pharaoh Rally, Paris-Beijing and others. For many years, the official VAZ dealer in France, Jean-Jacques Pocq, entered a team on Nivas at his own expense to participate in the Dakar marathon. Also for European owners of the VAZ-2121 there were competitions “Nivalp”, which can be compared with the Camel Trophy series.

Niva's world achievements

• World altitude record: in 1998, the Niva all-terrain vehicle climbed to the base camp near Everest to a height of 5200 m, and in 1999, on the Tibetan plateau in the Himalayas, it reached a height of 5726 m above sea level;
• “Niva” conquered the North Pole - during an international parachute campaign in April 1998, a VAZ-2131 “Niva” was dropped with a parachute, and after landing on the ice and freed from the lines, it was started up and successfully covered the given route;
• The Niva served for 12 years at the Russian polar station Bellingshausen in Antarctica, where roads do not exist in principle. The Togliatti all-terrain vehicle was operated in the temperature range from −54 to +40 °C for transporting goods and towing ships. The total mileage of the car was 11,800 km;
• In 1999 and 2000, the Lada-Niva-Marsh all-terrain vehicle, built on Niva units, conquered the North Pole twice.

Engine

The power unit was left virtually unchanged - it is still the same 1.7-liter engine with distributed fuel injection, meeting the Euro-4 toxicity standard. The changes include the installation of more modern and reliable sealing materials with a silicone bead, a new type of water pump oil seal, as well as a new fuel supply system with quick-release connections. All engine characteristics also remain the same.

Transmission

The transmission has been modernized much more seriously. First of all, a new clutch from Valeo was installed - the same one that is installed on the NIVA-Chevrolet. As a result of this, the resource of this unit almost doubled, and the Niva 21214m car itself became less susceptible to vibration due to a reinforced damper spring and an enlarged disk.

A more efficient crankcase ventilation system was installed on the transfer case, the cardboard seals were replaced with silicone ones, and they began to be equipped with new seals.

Due to the fact that more stringent requirements are now applied to the production of cardan shafts, which primarily relate to balancing accuracy, their service life has increased, and noise and vibration have decreased by approximately 80%.

Suspension and chassis

The most significant changes affected the suspension - it was optimized and almost completely unified with the well-proven NIVA-Chevrolet suspension:

• New front suspension steering knuckles;
• The front suspension has lower control arms with modern silent blocks;
• Front wheel alignment angles have been changed;
• Front axle of increased diameter;
• Reinforced brackets;
• New ball joints with an increased swing angle, forged body and liner made of polymer materials;
• Modern gas-oil shock absorbers with increased travel and service life;
• Optimized layout of the lower rods and arms in the rear suspension.

Currently, VAZ 21214 cars are equipped with a four-cylinder 8-valve gasoline engine, which uses a fuel injection system with distributed fuel injection .

The operation of the cylinders has the following order: 1-3-4-2 (counting from the crankshaft pulley).

On the right side of the Niva 21214 engine (along the direction of the car) there are: a generator, a starter, a thermostat, an inlet pipe and an exhaust manifold, a receiver with a throttle assembly, an idle speed regulator, a fuel rail with a fuel pressure regulator and injectors, a coolant temperature sensor, a position sensor throttle valve. An air filter is mounted on a separate bracket, which includes a mass fuel flow sensor.

On the left side: ignition module, spark plugs, oil level indicator, high voltage wires, control instrument sensor - coolant and oil pressure, oil filter, crankshaft position sensor, generator and coolant pump drive.

Description

The geometric parameters of cross-country ability are good due to the fairly high ground clearance (220 mm), small body overhangs (approach angle 32, departure angle 37) and a relatively short 2.2-meter wheelbase.

VAZ-21214 (Lada 4×4) - modification of model 21213 with the VAZ-21214 engine (1.7 l, 82.8 hp, 127.5 Nm) equipped with central fuel injection. Since 2002, this model has been equipped with a VAZ-21214-10 (Euro-0) engine with distributed fuel injection, upgraded in 2006 to Euro-2 standards (21214-20), in 2008 to Euro-3 (21214- 30) and, finally, in 2011 to Euro-5 (for export) and Euro-4 (for domestic consumption) standards.
