Niva 4x4 Technical Characteristics Fuel Consumption • Niva dimensions

The domestic auto industry has not often pleased consumers with high-quality cars. However, there are samples that are worth paying close attention to. For example, a Niva car, the dimensions of which correspond to the dimensions of an SUV. This series has several modifications that are still in demand among the population. Let's look at the structure and features of this car.

Owner feedback. Niva today

The gasoline consumption declared by the manufacturer in dense city traffic does not exceed 11.5 liters per 100 km, and on the highway the car is 8.3 liters due to the use of a box with an additional overdrive. The oil pump sprocket has only 30 teeth, which improves the performance of the oil pump and, thereby, ensures reliable operation of the hydraulic pushers and hydraulic tensioner.

• The tank is located directly under the rear seat.
• In the upper part there is a small hatch under which the fuel pump is installed.
• The sensor will help determine the level of fuel fluid and the amount of gasoline.

Buy Niva 21214 • The design is made to order, since standard kengurin is made from material of less thickness.

Engine tuning

Tuning a VAZ 2121 engine is an art. Since the car has the characteristics of an SUV, the engine is tuned accordingly. The air filter duct is installed as high as possible, and the motor from below is protected by a special tray, the purpose of which is not to allow water to pass through.

So, the modification of the Niva’s power unit is designed to increase cross-country ability and traction capabilities, since the vehicle is mainly designed for operation on rough terrain. So, many car enthusiasts bore the power unit in such a way as to add not only horsepower, but also traction.

As practice shows, tuning of VAZ 2121 engines and its modifications is carried out by tuning studios that are well versed in which unit needs to be modified.

Also, in the process of refinement, the ignition system and fuel injection are being modernized. For carburetor engines, an additional carburetor can be installed to increase the amount of fuel entering the combustion chamber.

For injection versions of engines, chip tuning is carried out, which can be aimed at increasing power or the balance between consumption and traction capabilities. Many car enthusiasts install additional sensors that help control the operation of the power unit.

Fuel consumption of Niva 2121, 21213, 21214 cars

There have been disputes among car owners for a long time around the actual fuel consumption of Niva 2121, 21213, 21214 cars. Some Niva consumes fuel at the level of a Zhiguli, others, according to them, will soon live at the gas station.

Let's give the passport fuel consumption standards for Niva 2121, 21213, 21214 cars. And compare them in the form of a table.

It should be noted that such measurements of fuel consumption were carried out on cars with a mileage of at least 50 thousand and no more than 100 thousand. At the same time, there was one driver in the car, without cargo. The car had road tires and no roof rack. The technical condition of the car was normal. 92 gasoline was used.

Driving capabilities

The Niva car, the interior dimensions of which can accommodate up to five people, is not a high-speed vehicle. Its characteristics are designed to overcome off-road conditions. This ability is provided by increased ground clearance, independent front suspension with wishbones, and a stabilizer bar. The rear suspension element is of a dependent type with a longitudinal and transverse linkage device.

With the advent of the VAZ-21213 model, developers began to pay more attention to car safety requirements. It began to be equipped with a diagonal brake circuit with an installed automatic locking system. The steering wheel has a hydraulic booster. It is worth noting that the Niva car (the dimensions of the new model have not changed) continues to be produced. At the same time, all the main components and parts are improved.

Niva's fuel consumption is acceptable!

The car is given good dynamics and acceptable fuel consumption by the Niva thanks to its reliable engine.

Niva of old brands is acceptable to most people; such cars consume a lot of fuel. The driver can enjoy all the delights of the Niva’s high cross-country ability at different times of the year. The Niva with the new engine demonstrates extreme efficiency, thanks to which the car has low fuel consumption and a very low level of harmful emissions into the atmosphere.

Factors affecting gas mileage

For example, to accelerate a car to 50 km h, you turn on the first, accelerate on the second, and then, skipping the third, turn on the fourth or fifth, provided the engine maintains speed. The gasoline consumption declared by the manufacturer in dense city traffic does not exceed 11.5 liters per 100 km, and on the highway the car is 8.3 liters due to the use of a box with an additional overdrive.

Examples of savings in Moscow

For example, let's calculate two distances:

1. From Red Square to the Moscow Ring Road and back in Moscow 50 km. How much gas does one save per month of such trips?
2. From Moscow to Sochi - 1600 km. How much cheaper will it be to fill up with gas?

Gas Performance Benefits

IN COMBINATION, THESE FACTORS EXTEND THE ENGINE LIFE BY

Gas extends the life of oil and spark plugs and reduces vehicle maintenance costs.

Gas burns a little slower than gasoline, which reduces the load on the piston group and crankshaft, causing the engine to run smoother.

The gas mixes easily with air and fills the cylinders more evenly with a homogeneous mixture, so the engine runs smoother and quieter. The gas mixture burns almost completely, so no carbon deposits form in the pistons, valves and spark plugs.

The octane number of petroleum gas is 103-105, which virtually eliminates detonation of engine parts. This advantage of gas can be especially important for engines with a high compression ratio that consume high-octane (and therefore expensive) gasoline.

The gas does not contain harmful impurities (lead, sulfur), which at the chemical level destroy the combustion chamber parts, catalytic converter and lambda probe.

The gas enters the engine in the vapor phase, so it does not wash away the oil film from the walls and does not dilute the oil in the crankcase.

Having extensive experience in operating gas equipment (this is already the 4th gas-powered car!), I can confidently say that AGTS specialists are the best professionals in converting cars to gas in St. Petersburg. no less than 100 percent. The feeling is super, if you have any doubts, I highly recommend it.

This is the second time I've come here. Hyundai Accent is my second car and, accordingly, my second LPG. Just like the first time, I installed Italian equipment from Lovato. It seems to me that it is the best. At least it’s very easy to set up, which can’t be said about other systems. And stability in operation: the settings are the same as they are. In total, I have been using HBO for 4 years now, and no problems. The most important thing is to regularly visit maintenance and immediately correct errors if something is wrong.

For me, LPG is no longer new - I’ve been driving gas for almost 10 years, and I install it on every new car. I think it’s not worth describing all the delights of the equipment, and a lot of things have already been told without me. I’ll tell you better how the installation of gas equipment in the AGTS went. I made an appointment with the guys a week in advance, arrived at the appointed time, and they were already waiting for me. The box is large and well equipped. Two people are allocated for each car, everything is done quickly and smoothly. I stood there, watching them. It is immediately clear that the team has worked well together. One installs the wiring, the other connects the cylinder. It’s obvious that they know their job here: every car is there – and on the day I arrived, it was sold out. Everyone is busy, there is no unnecessary talk, just business. At this rate, they installed the HBO for me for about two hours, probably, then one worker explained how it works, what is connected to what, etc. That is, in addition to the fact that they quickly installed it, they also gave instructions on how to use it and what to do if something goes wrong. This, it seems to me, is just great for those who are encountering HBO for the first time. And I, an experienced gas driver, was pleased to listen) In general, I recommend it!

"Niva": dimensions - Main characteristics

• high-quality gasoline - you need to refuel at reliable gas stations. By filling up with suspicious gasoline at an unknown gas station, you are putting fuel filters at risk;
• the fuel system must be kept clean, the jets must be cleaned constantly;
• severe wear of piston rings, pistons and cylinder block can increase fuel consumption;
• reducing compression in the engine gives the same result - high fuel consumption;
• Incorrect injector setting.

Technical characteristics • go and wash yourself, and don’t go where the men are.

Flaws

Niva engines have excellent technical characteristics and have proven themselves to be quite reliable power units. At the same time, it should be understood that, like all other VAZ power units, they are not without drawbacks.

The disadvantages of this motor include:

• increased noise;
• tendency to vibration;
• increased oil consumption.

Such problems often appear after a mileage of 100,000 kilometers. Car owners need to closely monitor the condition of the cooling system.

Often, problems with the pump and thermostat lead to overheating of the power unit. The result of such overheating can be the appearance of cracks in the cylinder head, which in turn leads to coolant entering the oil. The VAZ 21213 engine in this case requires complex and expensive repairs.

Consumption of VAZ 2121

Niva 2121 is the very first ever released, produced from 1977 to 1993 and equipped with a carburetor injection engine that developed 80 hp. and 116N*m of torque. Such technical indicators were not impressive; the Niva turned out to be “slow,” but it had enough power to move over rough terrain. The engine power allowed the Niva to accelerate to a maximum of 130 km/h, and then in a huge period of time by modern standards. Acceleration to 100 km/h for this modification was approximately 20 seconds.

Consumption per 100km

• City - 13 liters;
• Highway – 8.1 liters;
• Mixed cycle - 9.9 liters;

The fuel consumption of a cornfield depends on the driving cycle.

Also, fuel consumption is an average indicator and depends on the driver’s driving style, the terrain through which the car is moving and the ambient temperature.

What is the difference between Chevrolet Nivas of different modifications? Key points

• an early VAZ-2121, equipped with rear lighting from the 2106 sedan and equipped with engines with a carburetor power system;
• an improved VAZ-21213, which received a modified body with a lower loading height of the luggage compartment and modified stern lights;
• an extended VAZ-2131 with doors for rear row passengers;
• improved VAZ-21214, equipped with engines with distributed fuel injection and renamed Lada 4x4 in 2006;
• Chevrolet Niva, equipped with an original body with smooth contours and engines with an electronically controlled fuel injection system.

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.
