Safety:
The Autoreview newspaper published the results of a crash test of the Lada Vesta SW Cross using the unique ARCAP method.
The test standards are based on EuroNCAP - frontal impact on a 40% deformable overlap at a speed of 64 km/h (plus or minus 1 km/h).
In 2016, a Lada Vesta crash test was already carried out using this method, and then the car earned the highest rating of 4 stars and 13.9 points out of a maximum of 16. But it is worth noting that the cross-station wagon is heavier (1298 kg versus 1150 kg) and its wheels 17" installed (versus 15"). Also, all Vestas produced over the past two years have been modernized and received more durable threshold amplifiers with a thickness of 1.5 mm (versus the previous 0.8 mm).
As a result of the impact, the A-pillar of the cross body moved back by 10 mm (this is 6 mm more than that of the sedan). Individual airbags worked flawlessly. The integral criterion of head damage for both dummies did not exceed the acceptable values. The seat belts worked better than on the sedan - the compression of the ribs decreased from 28 mm to 18 mm.
In the most expensive configuration, the set of “security” options includes:
- Driver airbag
- Front passenger airbag with deactivation function
- ISOFIX child seat anchors
- Locking the rear doors against opening by children
- Automatic door locking when starting to move
- Automatic activation of the hazard warning lights during emergency braking
- Automatic door unlocking and hazard warning lights in the event of a collision
- Immobilizer
- Anti-lock braking system with electronic brake force distribution (ABS + EBD)
- Brake Assist System (BAS)
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) with shut-off function
- Traction Control System (TCS)
- hill start control system (HSA)
- ERA-GLONASS system
- Electric power steering
- Adjusting the height of the front seat belts
- Central locking with remote control
- Cruise control and speed limiter
- Side airbags
- Rear parking sensors
LADA Vesta SW Cross – latest photos 2020-2021
Externally, the Lada Vesta SW Cross did not receive any changes in principle after the update. The station wagon retains the X-shaped stampings on the sides that are characteristic of modern AvtoVAZ models. The front of the car is decorated with large headlights, from which two steel slats descend down. They connect the air intake and the radiator grille. A characteristic feature of the Lada Vesta SW Cross is its large windshield. This is ensured by heavily “filled up” support posts.
Also, the raised stern of this model has not undergone any changes. The rear of the car is decorated with plastic bumpers with a reinforced metal insert. Trapezoidal headlights are installed slightly higher, which partially extend onto the side of the car.
LADA Vesta SW Cross – interior photo and updated design
The design of the car interior meets all the standards of Vesta family models. Inside, the cabin is decorated with contrasting inserts both along the seats and on the front panel and door panels.
The front center console protrudes slightly; the manufacturer installed a multimedia system and climate control controls on it. The speedometer is located clearly in the center of the dashboard, and it, in turn, is highlighted with bright orange backlighting.
Lada Vesta SV Cross 2022 and 2022 salon
The interior of the 2022 and 2022 Vesta SV Cross is no different, since the car was released only at the end of 2022 and has not yet undergone any changes in 2018. So, let's look at the interior of the Lada Vesta SV Cross.
Car front panel
One of the most important elements on the front panel is the steering wheel. This is the so-called multifunctional steering wheel with the ability to control the multimedia system. There is a driver airbag in the steering wheel. In any configuration you will receive a leather-trimmed steering wheel.
Under the steering wheel there are paddle switches that control the car's windshield wipers and lights.
One of the most important parts of the Lada Vesta SV Cross interior is the central panel. Yes, it is made of hard plastic, like its classmates - Kia Rio and Hyundai Solaris. But she doesn’t cause any disgust. Everything is done harmoniously and thoughtfully. The multimedia system display, air conditioning control, and other control keys are conveniently located in the center.
In front of the driver’s eyes is a well-readable instrument panel - speedometer, tachometer, fuel level and temperature gauges. All devices fit well into deep wells and look great at any time of the day.
The passenger sees only the glove box in front of him - the glove compartment, by the way, is very spacious.
In the center of the Lada Vesta SV Cross cabin there is a tunnel with cup holders, a gearbox control knob and an armrest. Depending on the installed gearbox, the handle will have a different appearance. If the car is equipped with a manual transmission, the gearshift knob will look like this:
... if a robot is installed in the car, then you will have to control the box modes with this handle:
Next, traditionally, are the handbrake and armrest, which are quite roomy.
Door trims
The door trims are made of the same plastic as the front panel, but additionally have inserts that fit seamlessly into the rest of the interior design. Door trims combine not only stylish design, but also thoughtful ergonomics. You can easily put a water bottle or other small items in the door. There are ESP buttons on all doors, and on the driver’s side there is a control unit for all ESPs, mirror adjustment, door and lift locking.
Seats, floor, ceiling
floor of the Lada Vesta SV Cross is a classic carpet, like on 80% of budget foreign cars. Not very durable, but it serves its purpose, and nothing more is required from it. Mats - rubber or textile - protect the carpet from moisture and dirt.
Seats. Here's a little more detail. In the Lada Vesta SV Cross station wagon, the most thoughtful detail is the seats. They are the only ones with no questions in terms of comfort and design. Yes, it is comfortable to sit on such chairs. You can travel long distances and not worry about back and lower back pain. Externally, there is also nothing to blame the designers for. The seats look fresh and modern.
The ceiling in the Lada Vesta interior has a normal high-quality finish. Yes, it is light, but with proper care it will not lose its appearance for a very long time. And with timely washing, you can get rid of dirt in no time.
