Lada Largus
The Lada Largus is a compact estate car built by the Russian manufacturer AvtoVAZ for Russia and CIS countries since 2012. It is essentially a rebadged version of the Renault-developed first generation Dacia Logan MCV and is produced as a joint project with Renault and Nissan.
Overview
After the VAZ-2104 had been removed from production in 2012, AvtoVAZ no longer produced any inexpensive and roomy station wagon models. The present model line station wagons Lada Kalina and Lada Priora have a higher completion and much higher price. The Largus is the first joint project between AvtoVAZ and Renault-Nissan. It is part of a larger common plan of the companies to produce five models in Russia, based on the Dacia B0 platform. The total production in 2012 is expected to reach 27,000 cars.The Largus is being produced in a full-cycle production unit. It is equipped with air conditioning, an anti-lock braking system, two front airbags, 5 or 7 seats, bluetooth hands free and an MP3 player. It is available in two versions: as a passenger MPV and as a high-capacity panel van. Both versions are available with either of the two petrol engine options: a 1.6-litre 8-valve with or a 1.6-litre 16 valve, capable of producing. Both engines are paired with a five-speed manual gearbox. The only significant changes from the original model are the grille, front bumper, lining the quarter panel and the headlights.
On 4 April 2012, AvtoVAZ launched Lada Largus production at a ceremony attended by Vladimir Putin. During his visit to Tolyatti, Putin toured the plant and signed the first Lada Largus. Sales were started on 16 July 2012. The panel van version went on sale in August 2012 and the Cross version was launched in 2015.
Facelift
In 2021, an updated Largus was introduced in two passenger versions called the Universal and the Cross, while the van version was renamed the Furgon. The 8-valve and 16-valve versions of the 1.6-litre engine remained, with a slight increase of power, now producing, respectively.Versions
