Lada Granta Lada Granta
Prepare your money - there is nothing more interesting in class B than our Grant. Given the price, of course. Marketers have made sure that the car, whose sales begin in December this year, does not look like Cinderella against the background of competitors: the driver’s airbag and daytime running lights are already in the basic configuration. Only 229, 000 rubles for this 90-horsepower car with an almost 500-liter boot is a very interesting offer.
By the way, they will sell the new VAZ subcompact in the same way as foreign cars - by reservation. Want to get a “Standard” with navigation? You are welcome. Have you decided to add a Norma air conditioner? No problem, discuss your wishes with the dealer and get exactly what you need, including any of the five body colors. Options with a gun and a powerful 16-valve engine will also be, but later, by the end of 2012. And we are waiting for the “Grant” hatchback and, possibly, a crossover at its base!
THAN THE RICH
For now, let's take a closer look at the Norm + version in the only sedan body possible today. According to all forecasts of marketers, it will be in her most demand in the first six months. Let me remind you that simply “Norma” (256 000 rubles) includes an adjustable steering column, driver airbag, two front head restraints, power windows for the front doors, central locking, trip computer, three-point belts, an imported electric power steering with a new control program, audio training, children’s Isofix mounts.
A plus to this configuration - alloy wheels, an option in Russia is very respected. It’s worth voting for it also because in this case the price rises only to 260 thousand exactly. You understand that four wheels for 4000 rubles are not the case to refuse.
The shape of the rays of the cast wheels is not the last fashion, but the price of such a set is 4000 rubles! In the "Norm" 14 inch tires, in the "Standard" 13 inch on stamped wheels

It is clear that Lada-2107 (206, 000 rubles) has nothing of the above. The Lada-Samara sedan in the Lux configuration (286, 000 rubles) in the filling also has little similarity with the new product. The new model will also replace the Lada Kalina sedan, whose production has been discontinued. But even if we compare with it, the Norma equipment until the last moment cost dealers 281, 900 rubles, although it did not have a third of what the Grant could boast of.
It’s basically unethical to include the older model in the range of the Prioru plant in this list, however, as they say, for reference: a car in a performance similar to the Grant and with the same motor power costs 318, 900 rubles. It is clear that the absence of daytime running lights, the trunk with a volume of only 430 liters versus 480 liters with the Grant and the gas tank with 7 liters less do not testify to it.
Now you understand that the “Lada Granta” in the “Norma” version does not at all look like a machine for poor compatriots. As for other competitors, there are almost none at a price of 260, 000 rubles. This is either European-Korean cars that have long celebrated the twentieth anniversary of the first release, or a flock of Chinese small cars. The closest competitor in the Renault Logan alliance in the database costs from 329, 900 rubles.
TREADMILL
On the road habits of the "Grant" noticeably went forward from the ancestress of the "Kalina". The magazine has repeatedly written about what constitutes a “Grant” in terms of satisfying driver’s ambitions, and as a result of which it is so stable on roads with various surfaces (ЗР, 2011, No. 9). I note that the day spent driving this car I personally did not cause negative emotions, although during a test drive along the mountain roads of Sochi and Krasnaya Polyana, at times it seemed that the second gear was not clearly engaged.
The grants front panel consists of 39 parts. Kalina has 59 of them! By the way, the air ducts in the “Grant” are not from “Logan”, as some experts believe, but the Italian ones, specially designed for our car to suit today's fashion. You will find similar ones on many cars: from Ford and Renault to Fiat and Land Rover
