If you carefully pay attention to what cars that drive on our roads can be noted that most of them are Lada Granta or Priora (except Moscow of course). These cars are characterized by both the price and appearance and each of them has its pros and cons. The purpose of today's article is to help the buyer in choosing between them and answer the question "What is better, a grant or prior?".
The prototype for this car was outdated Lada Kalina. The new car received an engine, equipped with noise insulation, as well as a more modern design that meets all European standards. Among other things, the grant contains a fairly spacious trunk, the volume of which reaches 500 liters. However, if you fold the rear sofa on the prior, you can get 400, but 700 liters, but with damage to the rear passengers.
This car is most suitable for middle-aged people or retirees, as it does not boast of impressive speed characteristics. In addition, among the drivers were noticed complaints about too sensitive management to which you need to get used to it.
However, the grant can also be equipped with a 16-valve engine, which is so famous among motorists. It is worth such equipment is noticeably more expensive, and still inconvenient in operation, since the volume of the workpiece of this car is very small.
Priora is a continuation of the car VAZ 2110, and accordingly, it was created completely based on it. Naturally, many qualities got from the precursor the car. Priora has a good control and a fairly powerful motor that allows it to behave well on the track.
Among the disadvantages of the car can be noted very poor permeability and, like the tenth model, a very dubious quality of the assembly. Priora enjoys a good demand among young people.
Design
Perhaps, in appearance, the grant wins, which has more modern features of the body and makes this model VAZ revolutionary, which takes it to one level with all foreign cars. The prior does not have the desired streaming and has the same primitive design. Although if we are talking about a new prior, then you can argue, since she received a new front part. In general, it is, of course, the case of taste.
If you judge the convenience, then the grant also wins, as it has smaller dimensions, which is convenient in close urban conditions.
If we talk about the modernity of the cabin - then the prior is much gravating most of the Russian drivers, as it has a lot more space and all the same familiar torpedo with the necessary functionality. Grant is collected with an emphasis on European design, which is confirmed by a special form of dashboard and other ergonomics of instruments. In addition, the grant salon has been worked out much more competent, in terms of the appearance of "outsiders" sounds.
Power point
Grant is more suitable for urban driving, since on the track fuel consumption is noticeably higher. This interesting and inexplicable feature, since the engines of these cars are absolutely the same. Priora wins on the highway, both by dynamic indicators and consumption.
The gearbox grants is much superior to its competitor, as short-terrestrial scenes are used here, which reduce the likelihood of crusts and reducing speed switching time. In addition, there is a complete set in which it is equipped with an automatic transmission than explicitly can not boast Lada Priora.
Lada Grant is equipped with a more modern suspension, which makes the car much softer and more comfortable, but its principle remains the same.
As you already understood, the grant has much more pros, rather than prior. However, in this case, the "new product" of the VAZ may be surprising, since all its factory flaws have not yet been discovered, and the prior has become tested by time, which makes it much predictable.
We hope that this article will help you make the right choice and you can easily determine what is better, a grant or prior.
Video on the topic
Despite the permanent increase in the fraction of foreign cars, the positions of the domestic auto industry remain unshakable. As it is clear: even the middle class is able to consider money, and in conditions of constant growth of inflation, the car, which is five years ago, was considered inexpensive, today it becomes inaccessible. But it would be a mistake to believe that it is not subject to the influence of evolution: it becomes more comfortable and safe, reliable and high-quality, making the competition to many budget foreign cars, especially Chinese production. So it is not surprising that the defendants of our review are two popular models: Priora, the last copy of which came down from the conveyor in 2018, and a grant that is still produced, but already with the prefix "while".
Technical features of models
To participate in the review, we took the latest generation cars with the same 1.6-liter 87-strong motors and a manual box.
| Grant | Priora | |
| Country assembly | Russia | Russia |
| Body type | sedan | Sedan |
| Transmission | mechanical | mechanical |
| Volume of the power unit, l. | 1,598 | 1,598 |
| Power, l. from. | 87 | 87 |
| Max cr. Moment, ns for about / minute | 140/3800 | 140/3800 |
| The volume of tank with flammable, l. | 50 | 43 |
| The volume of the luggage compartment, l. | 520 | 430 |
| Outline weight, t. | 1,16 | 1,19 |
| Length, see | 427 | 435 |
| Height, see | 150 | 142 |
| Wheel base, see | 248 | 249 |
| Clearance, see | 18,0 | 16,5 |
| The average fuel consumption, l. per 100 km. | 6,8 | 7,4 |
| Tire sizzy | 175/65R14. | 175/65R14. |
As we see, the prior is larger and harder: the weight of the priors and grants differs by 30 kg., And the length is 8 centimeters. But the grants have more clearance, and it is more economical. In the whole other sedans are approximately equal.
Exterior
Lada Granta debuted in 2011, and it was an advanced sedan. Initially, the car was constructed with the calculation to replace the rear-wheel drive versions, in particular, the nine line. Later, a five-door Liftbek was added to the sedan, which retired at the front with the base model (only by the bumper). Rear for quite understandable reasons, cars turned out to be little similar. In general, the appearance of grants, especially after the last restyling, became a youth, reminiscent of typical "dutiks" of the sample of the 90s. Bumper, front head optics, running lights were improved.
Start sales Priors dates back to 2007, and the model itself was intended to replace the "top ten", the demand for which each year fell. In 2013, the car was subjected to facelifting, during which running lights were added and noise insulation improved. The exterior design itself practically did not change and today is perceived as obsolete morally.
So according to the appearance, the question is that better, grant or prior, it is not worth it: the first model looks unequivocally more modern and aesthetically. In favor of Priora, there is a more extensive selection of body types: except for the sedan, a wagon and two modifications of hatchback, three- and five-door are available.
Salon and trunk
Since the grant was designed later, the interior of it is just as modern as the appearance. Designers have tried to take into account all fashion trends in world auto industry. The round shape of deflectors attract attention, the presence of a shelf in front of the front passenger's chair is the influence of the French School of Avtodizain. True, the quality of the plastic leaves much to be desired - it is hard, and over time it begins to make unpleasant violets. However, there are also soft inserts on the torpedo, and on the dashboard - even elements of decor under aluminum. Oval watches also look good.
In the priors, Torpedo also got very rapidly, but it felt that it was clearly lacking ergonomics. As for the capacity, the relatives have approximately the same capacity and in front, and behind. The light shortage of the width is felt behind, there will be clearly uncomfortable here, especially during long journeys. Landing the heiress "Dozens" is much lower - echo of the nineties. Most those who love to sit high, and such, obviously, the majority. And it's not so much in the best visibility: to sit down and go here much easier than a low priori. The volume of the trunk in grants for 90 liters is more, which can cause surprise, because the dimensions of this sedan are less than that of a competitor.
Unlike priors, the grants of the back of the rear sofa goes away, but not all complete sets, and it will not get a smooth cargo platform.
Engines and transmissions
On both cars, almost the same eight or sixteenthlylated 1,6-liter engine, which gotten from viburnum. But they have different forcing. Priors are 98/106 l. p., The youngest fellow to these two power units have been added less powerful, 82- and 87-strong. But even on the same engines, a purely subjectively grant seems more riser - perhaps due to the presence of a lightweight connecting rod-piston group. In any case, these motors are less noisy, slowly less vibrate and consume less fuel. Only AI-95 is used as the latter.
As for the transmission, then here the leadership grants looks obvious - its cable box looks much more preferable. Essentially, this upgraded mechanical gearbox from the VAZ-2108, which works much more clearly, although it is considered more noisy.
Given all the above, the answer to the question, whose power unit is better, priors or grants will be unequivocal, but this advantage cannot be called decisive.
Dynamics, fuel consumption
Equipped with a 87-strong engine, consumes as much gasoline as its survey compressor equipped with the same power plant:
- The city is 9.0 liters per 100 kilometers;
- Highway - 5.8 l.;
- Mixed mode - 7.0 liters.
But due to the distinguished weight, overclocking dynamics are different: a prior to achieve a speed of 100 km / h is required 12.5 seconds at the "maximum speed" of 176 km / h, the grant accelerates faster (12.2 seconds), but is "quieter" ( Its limit is 167 km / h).
106-strong 1.6-liter sixteenthly gauge - another common engine, but here all the indicators are different, except for the maximum speed (183 km / h). Lada Priora consumption in the city, highway and mixed mode is 8.9 / 5.6 / 6.8 liters per 100 kilometers (acceleration to "hundreds - 11.5 seconds), Lada Granta - 8.6 / 5, 6/6,7 (10.9 seconds) for MCPP, and 9.9 / 6.1 / 7.6 (13.3 seconds) for a four-band automatic box.
So according to these indicators, the comparison of grants and priors of the explicit winner did not reveal: the heir "dozens" is faster with one power unit, and loses with another.
Handling and security
It is difficult to call as comfortable as in modern foreign cars, but in terms of the handling of the prior is quite good. Possessing the increased stroke of the steering wheel, the car confidently keeps the road even at speeds exceeding 120 km / h. Yes, and maneuver here is easier due to the increased number of rollers (4,1). Granta in comparison with the competitor loses - on turning the machine more rolls, since there are less revolutions (3.1), and any irregularity can cause care of the initial trajectory. At the same time, the suspension has one more soft - this is a fairly comfortable car, regardless of the type of body.
As for the indicator of reliability and safety, both cars are equipped with a safety pillow for the driver and the ABS / EBD / BAS system - this is, so to speak, the minimum European standard for basic complete sets. In addition, there is a security alarm and CZ with remote control.
Configuration and prices
The configuration from both cars is not different. In the basic version there are daytime running lights, one PB, already mentioned EBD / ABS / BAS systems, audio preparation and tinted windows. Priora has an on-board computer, a steering wheel, armrest, a glacial one to this list. The cost of installing Standart is approximately the same - 460 thousand rubles are asked for the prior, 430 thousand for the grant. Why the basic prior is more expensive than grants, science is unknown, but with an increase in equipment, the picture changes, becoming more projected.
Equipment Norma in priors costs 470 thousand, while the level of equipment corresponds to the initial of the grant. The top version of Image can be purchased for 530 thousand, while a competitor is relatively expensive Luxe Prestige worth 610 thousand. Here you can enjoy the air conditioning, a modern seven-thorough sensory multimedia display, a passenger airbag, parking sensors, light / rain sensors - options that are missing from Lada Priora.
What to choose: grant or prior
Summarizing the above, it is difficult to give preference to some one model. Especially since there are modifications with different bodies - sedans, liftbacks, universals, hats, sports versions. So it would be interesting to compare and reviews real owners.
But here opinions differ. Many argue that the grant is more important and high quality priors that this car has small malfunctions for challenging in the car service, arise later and less. At the same time, in most cases, these are such defects that allow you to move independently, and not to resort to the assistance of the tow truck (the heater fault, the mechanism of the windows, generator, etc.). Less, appearance - much more modern and more attractive. The only minus, characteristic of all models - whistling brakes, but also to this sooner or later get used to and stop paying attention.
Another advantage of the heir "dozens" is a more spacious salon, especially in part of the passenger foot space. The landing is also much more convenient, the trunk is almost 90 liters more. Add to this richest equipment, and the picture is emerging more or less slim.
But PRIORA likes many, and it is quite reliable. Moreover, if you believe statistical data, then the owners of this car visit the auto service less often. Perhaps it is here in more maintainability - many are repaired in the garage conditions, the benefit of problems with spare parts are not, and their value is an order of magnitude lower than that of foreign cars. The only thing that disappoints even supporters of the car with an old-fashioned design is too overestimated. But since the production of the model has been discontinued since last year, price comparisons become not completely correct.
So - a grant or prior - to determine anyway. If you are interested only in a new car - the choice is unequivocal, but the network has already repeatedly slipped the information that the production of Lada Granta also plan to collapse, especially against the background of frequent problems with suppliers. When this happens, it is unknown, so we would advise not to postpone the purchase in a long box. Yes, and inflation does not have to preserve the purchasing power of the population at the same level ...
VAZ is an undoubted leader of the domestic car industry. I release several models of your cars at the same time, it is not only to taste the car, but also on the wallet. And if you consider the fact that each of them has a certain number of complete sets, the choice becomes even wider. That is what often represents difficulties when buying. It is not easy to decide, especially considering the considerable cost of vehicles.
And in the case when you have to choose between cars Lada Grant and Lada Priora, unambiguity is excluded. It would seem that everything is very simple. Priora was intended to continue removed from the 10th model conveyor. Grant came to replace the legendary classics, from there and the price, and comfort. At first glance, the answer to the question is that better - is obvious.
However, over time, the grant was noticeably distant from its predecessor and became quite competitive car. And yet it is quite difficult to compare them. These are cars of different categories, on the idea of \u200b\u200bthe plant, they should not compete. Meanwhile, knowing their technical characteristics, you can draw conclusions that will help determine the choice.
Exterior, configuration and interior of both cars
Priora is the only AvtoVAZ machine produced at different times in the 4-body types (including coupe). Any car enthusiast can choose the appropriate option. A grant is available in the sedan, more recently appeared its option. Thus, if the car enthusiast prefers large size of the wagon, the problem of choice before him is not worth it - there are no such bodies for the grant. Appearance, according to many, the priors are also better.
It is more proportional, 2014 has become more modern. This happened in many respects by improving the front headlights and bumpers. Grant has a modern appearance, but he is rustled. In addition, the body was created for a budget car, so he remained. It is felt on non-swivel bumpers in the minimum configuration. Thus, the comparison of the exterior is clearly not in favor of the Lada Grant.
However, it has forehead lights in any configuration and are used from the very beginning of the release, while the priors appeared in 2014. Priora and grant have three configurations. At the first car, even in a minimal - solid set of options, namely the driver's airbag, athermal glasses, central locking, front power windows, immobilizer and alarm.
In addition, bumpers priors are painted in body color. The grants in the configuration standard they are black, and the set of options is more scarce. The most significant is the driver's airbag and a single ignition key and door locks. It is clear that in this configuration of the prior is an obvious favorite. In the configuration, the norm difference becomes even more significant. A grant for the set of options with difficulty reaches the priority standard.
The latest audio system, climatic installation, electric mirrors and trunk lids appear. The appearance of some vehicle modifications is already improved in this configuration to 14. However, in the luxury package, the difference between the options options if it does not disappear completely, it becomes almost imperceptible on a general background. Meanwhile, the price of priors in this configuration is 10% higher than that of grants.
It can be concluded that in the minimum configuration of the grant explicitly loses in the number of options. Consequently, those for whom comfort is crucial, choose a prior. Car enthusiasts that prefer a budget car will stop at the grant. In the package, the suite is not so unequivocal. The number of options in them for cars is the same, but the grant is cheaper. What a car is preferable to solve the motorist himself.
Engines and transmissions of models
If we talk about engines, then according to this parameter, compare the prior and the grant is also not easy. Both machines have completely identical power units. However, in 2014, after the next restyling, Lada Priora in the Suite configuration began to be completed with the engine 21127. It should be reached in more detail. The fact is that the designers came up with it specifically for this model.
His feature is passive supervision. The principle of its work consists in changing the length of the intake manifold, depending on the revolutions. As a result, the engine became more powerful in all operating modes. The dynamics of the car significantly improved. According to the owners, it is especially noticeable on small speeds. However, the former disadvantage - damage to the valves when the timing belt breakdown - got this power unit.
Thus, motorists for which the good car dynamics and the modern engine are important, will choose the prior, however, it will be available only in the suite of the suite and the norm. The mechanical box on the grant has a cable drive, it significantly reduces the vibration transmitted from the engine to the gear shift lever. As a result, noise and vibration in the car's cabin decreases, which makes it much more comfortable.
The drive of the Lada Priora box has a housing control. The complexity of the upgrades is due to the need to change some bodies of the car body. In addition, the prior and grant can have an automatic box, it has Japanese roots and it has great reliability. When choosing a used car, consider the fact that the automatic transmission first appeared on the grant.
For this designers had to make large changes in the body and car suspension. By preferring the automatic transmission, it should be borne in mind that the operation of the machine with it requires certain skills and experience. Otherwise, according to the owners, fuel consumption will be quite different from the stated.
Sport modifications
Car comparison is impossible without consideration of sports equipment. After all, many car enthusiasts specifically make the appropriate tuning of their "iron horses". Meanwhile, the prior and grant have a factory modification of such machines. Sports modification Priors has more cosmetic changes. This, of course, is also a lot. Car lubers now do not have to install an independently aerodynamic kit and a tougher suspension.
Engine power is increased to 125 liters. s., which made it possible to raise the maximum speed until 195 km / h. 14-inch alloy wheels are installed on the machine. Of course, for a complete set of sports of this little. Perhaps this was the cause of the small popularity of the car. By the way, along with the release of the model AvtoVAZ suggested motorists a set for self-tuning. Its price at that time was about 70,000 rubles.
A completely different deal is with a grant. This is the first car modification car for which the manufacturer specially developed a new engine. The power of it is 118 liters. p., For such a modification of this little. However, the VAZ promises to equip a car 135-, and later a 200-strong unit. The appearance of the car has changed much. Compared to the civil version, he began to look much more massive.
In his appearance, aggressiveness appeared, which very much like sports tuning lovers. The appearance complements the 16-inch alloy wheels. The suspension has special short-terrestrial racks that allow you to confidently enter the turn at high speed. The rear brakes have a disk design, which made them much more efficiently. By installment, the car is identical to the luxury version.
Given all the facts, decide which sports car is better - prior or grant, it has become much easier. The absolute majority of motorists believes that among the domestic models alternatives to the Grant Grant. True, the price of it today exceeds 480 thousand rubles. However, independent tuning of his lovers can do it more expensive and will be less qualitative.
Reliability grants and priors
It is impossible to decide what is better - Lada Grant or Priora, without considering a reliability. Both cars are quite reliable. Possessing the same nodes, they still have some constructive features inherent in a specific model. Therefore, malfunctions can be different. The network is most often mentioned Lada Grant Car Generator. More precisely, its bearing, which is very often faced until the end of the warranty period.
Pretty common complaints about the noise of gear in the gearbox. But especially often negatively respond about the dynamics of the car, pointing to the firmware of the ECU. Many on their own risk reflash it. After that, in their opinion, the car becomes rustier and consumes less gasoline. Owners of Lada Priora, looking for help on the Internet, also a lot. Early release disease - electric power steering. The point is here in the imperfection of the design.
A malfunction is manifested by the appearance of the jokes when the steering wheel is rotated. Frequently mentioned regular alarm. She stops opening and close the doors. Power windows electric motors also deliver a lot of hassle owners. Their work becomes unstable in most cases after 3 years of operation. Approximately after the same period the owners noted the emergence of extraneous noise and the screenshot of plastic parts.
So, we were convinced that in any car there are both shortcomings and dignity. Which option is preferable, only the buyer itself decides. Good luck!
Priora or grant - choose the machine on the principle of "what is better"
What is better or complexity of choosing between Lada Kalina or grant and prior
Recently, more and more car owners prefer the Lada machines. The leading positions on sales of this concern occupy. Moreover, those who plan to acquire a domestic car long cannot stop their choice on a specific model. Priora or grant, what is still purchased?
Answer definitely on this question is difficult, at least two of these "braes" of the Lada and in different price categories, but have a lot of common features and characteristics, and this makes the choice even more difficult.
Many are surprised than such love for the Russian automotive industry is caused. But here just everything is simple, it is associated with a low price of "iron horses" and accessible components on them. More and more people prefer to enjoy a new car, albeit domestic production than a B / y foreign car. Why this happens, explain easy. Buy good quality hard. Basically, all cars are repaired after strong accidents, and to take reluctance to anyone in a bag.
But how to identify the winner in the battle of prior vs grant? To do this, it is necessary to produce a comparative analysis of cars in all positions, such an approach will help to determine when purchasing.
Grant against Priors: Compare External and Inside
The first thing we draw attention to the purchase of a car is its external and inner view. And if, for example, compare a model with import vehicles, then the interior and exterior of domestic cars will plungely lose, look poorer and more boring.
If we abstract from foreign cars and talk about each car specifically, the grant has a more modern body and an attractive design, rather than her rival Lada Priora. Moreover, the prior in the basic configuration is much more expensive than its rival. Therefore, in the struggle of prior against grants in appearance and inner design wins the second. And one more plus in favor of grants - In 2014, the car began to produce in the body of Liftbek (before that there was only a sedan). This version of the car looks very presentable and modern. If you do not see the Lada nameplate, then Grant Liftbek may well get together for the "foreigner". Priora is produced in the body of the sedan, wagon and hatchback, but cars do not look so spectacular like a grant liftbek.
The appearance of the body is the first to pay the buyer
In 2014, Lada Priora has undergone restyling. True, the body has changed not radically. Lada Priora 2014 differs from the previous version with an updated bumper, radiator grille and modified headlights. Also, the car supplemented with new LED stop signals and rear dimensions.
But inside the Lada Priora 2014 was changed straight. The front panel attracts the updated design, and in expensive tributes, you can observe cruise control and modern.
The tilt mechanism of the back in Lada Priora 2014 was also finalized, it now functions smoothly and clearly, as in the grant. The heating system of seats Priors became a trink. Under the seats appeared plastic lining closing free space. In general, inside the prior was very transformed, outside - so-so. And here only you decide whether you agree to overpay for the interior of the salon a very decent amount.
Compare specifications
In addition to an attractive appearance and inexpensive price, each car owner draws attention to various engine characteristics. If you return to the confrontation of a grant or prior, both machines are equipped with almost identical motors. The difference will vary slightly from the selected configuration. According to experts, the gearbox in grants is better than its competitor priors. Currently, the grant is produced with an updated manual transmission, which is many times better than the previous one. Switching speed is now much more convenient, and the vibration that was present earlier, there was no.
The amount of gasoline that consumes the one and another car with the same specifications is not particularly different. Since 2014, the prior is manufactured with a robotic gearbox, like a grant. True, the cost of priors with such a box will be about 500 thousand rubles, but it is not about it now.
The quality of the suspension of the Grand and the updated prior was practically equal to
Both "braes" of the Lada concern can boast a reliable suspension. And if first in the duel between the machines in terms of driving quality clearly won the grant, then after 2014, when the prior has undergone a number of changes, they almost equalized.
But, to the sadness of many car owners, all changes that occurred with the prior in 2014, did not add the power machine, this is not a car. Its potential capacity is 98 and 106 hp But Grant has a modification of the sport, and she has 118 "horses" under the hood. Someone will say that this is also small, but the reviews of the owners say about the opposite. The machine with a sports filling is very sharp.
Lada Grant or Priora: Complete set and price
Of course, everyone wants to have a reliable and modern car equipped with a powerful engine, but also about the cost of the car do not need to forget. So, the cheapest model of priors in the basic configuration, regardless of the body, will cost approximately both (liftbek) in the luxury configuration. Of course, not in the most appointed, but still a suite.
To make it easier to decide, prior or Lada Grant, consider each car separately. So, prior - this model is very ergonomic and on a five-point scale can get a firm four. The car enjoys great love from the younger generation, which with pleasure tuning the prior, alone her "for himself."
The production of this vehicle began in 2007, in 2014 a restyling was held, which, as mentioned, did not particularly change the appearance, but added in the technical characteristics and in the interior. The most important refinement in the camp of 2014 - racks, which in the previous version simply collapsed. It was a huge minus car. In general, the model is very good and uses buyers with good demand. The vehicle is presented in two configurations: the norm and suite, which differ in the presence of additional functions.
Lada Grant began to be produced in 2011. She immediately interested in many buyers with an attractive design and a low price. The machine is equipped with a fairly quiet engine and a modern system of noise insulation. Salon is not different in particular chic, but it is quite comfortable when driving. From the conveyor, the model went in 2011, in addition to the sedan, Liftback was also released. Grant is available in three sets: standard, norm and suite. The cheapest and "empty" car will cost the buyer a little more than 300 thousand rubles.
If we talk about security, then the grant has done to cope with European crash tests. Of course, in the car there are devices, but in general this model can be called successful. And if you compare the very first cars of this model and those that have come from the conveyor in 2014 after a minor restyling, then the quality has increased markedly.
So what car is better
Differences of cars insignificant and winning grants rather associated with the year of her release
Of course, each person chooses a car to his taste and pocket. But considering all the characteristics described above, the grant wins several points at the priors, at least because the first more modern than her rival. Even the fact that the prior was updated in 2014, it does not particularly save it. By the way, there is information that the last year is the latter, when they produce a prior, it should replace the perfect new model.
In addition to the appearance and technical characteristics, grant is cheaper than the rival. This is also connected with the fact that when it is assembling it is used less details.
But the priors have undoubted advantages. This machine perfectly showed itself in operation. Problems and "sores" models have long been known, wait for some surprises, acquiring it, does not have to. A grant is already not so "raw", as a couple of years ago, but it may still be unpleasant to surprise its owner.
Therefore, it is better to decide that a grant or prior is the prerogative of the buyer. Weigh all the pros and cons of each model, sit in them, appreciate the volume of the trunk, salon, specifications. If you listen to the opinion of experts, there is some significant difference between the two vehicles. When choosing, rely on the available means and your own preferences. Successful choice!
What is preferable or what is better - prior or grant?
Despite the fact that the Russian auto industry scolded, scolded and, most likely, will scold, cars "VAZ" do not go away from the first line of sales ratings. Why buyers forgive them flaws in assembly, cheap finish materials, as well as quite controversial design? Everything is simple - price. As Henry Ford spoke - "The best car, this is a new car." This is enjoyed by priors and viburnum, because for that price tag that hangs on these cars in the salons, it will not be possible to buy even the most simple European foreign car.
The only ones who came close enough to the vases of permanently, these are cars manufactured by the subway, however, to them, so far, the attitude of the field is suspicious than to domestic cars. Let's take the two most popular machines from, with similar price tags, and let's try to figure out what is better - Valina or Priora.
Lada Kalina and Lada Priora have certain babysitting, but it says goodbye to them, since the price of them more than a democratic
Rumors about this model began to walk over many years before her release. The Press Center AvtoVAZ did not indulge the car enthusiasts of information, because many myths were written about this car. In general, from the sketch version and to the production of viburnum on the conveyor, no little, ten years, passed. The first cars appeared in car dealerships in 2004. Initially, customers were offered only the body performed by the sedan, and only two years later, the autocontracean was pleased with the release of the hatchback and the wagon.
This car is the ideological heir to the tenth model. Many autoexperts call the prior not the next generation, but deep restyling "dozens". Indeed, the design of the car, although was reworked, but in its outlines, the predecessor lines are clearly guessed.
Innovations touched the use of a new power unit (by the way, very and very good - some auto-shareholders argued that the new engine is the best that is in the prior), not bad, as well as the gearbox box, which was significantly upgraded (but not mistaken By its occasion - to turn on the second transmission, it is still necessary to make a considerable effort).
In addition, in the prior, for the first time in the history of the Russian automation, the plant began to be installed a airbag.
In 2013, the VAZ updated both models, plus the third player is already present on the market for a long time - Lada Grant, so that today, the question sounds as follows: what is better - Kalina 2, Priora 2 or grant. Here we will not talk about the grant, since its comparison with the first two pulls on a separate large material.
The new prior changed slightly - mostly changes touched out external design and interior decoration. The manufacturer's plans to remove the prior from production in the next few years, because the leadership decided that it is meaningless to carry out any serious updates. But it is impossible to say that the model completely waved his hand - they promise to put a new gearbox with a cable drive, as well as a new power unit.
The new prior changed slightly - mainly changes touched out external design and interior decoration
Much more serious work was carried out over Kalina. In addition to very noticeably changed appearance and new salon, Kalina received (about a miracle!) Automatic box. Yes, you read correctly - for the first time, VAZ began to install automatic transmissions on its cars. By the way, reviews about this transmission are quite good. The refinement was also suspended, the suspension, gearbox and engine. Completed configuration with multimedia system and climate.
Despite the seemingly more modest dimensions, the places in the salon of Kalina 2 will be more than that of priors. Planting both the front and rear passengers in the prior is not as comfortable, so for the salon Kalina is an unequivocal plus. Another advantage is the quiet operation of the power unit (thanks to improved noise insulation), in the direction of the same sound is clearly audible even at idle.
Kalina looks modern and in many prior parameters I am inferior to it
As for the dynamics of overclocking, it is approximately the same. Kalina can be a little faster due to less weight, but the difference is not so fundamentally to pay close attention to it.
The question of choice largely depends on the subjective preferences of the buyer, however, today, Kalina is more preferable due to higher technological and quite modern design.
For people who often have to carry a large amount of things, the following question is important - what is better, Lada Kalina Wagon, or Lada Priora Wagon? Let's start with the price: for Kalina 2 in the practical body will have to lay out from 334,500 rubles, and for the prior - from 384,000 rubles. Is it worth overpaying 50 thousand rubles?
If you like some special reasons for some particular reasons, then yes - it is possible to overpay, but in the usual case, the situation is the same as with other bodies - Kalina looks more modern and preferable. In addition, with the release of the second modification, the universals began to put good 1.6-liter engines on the universals (they used 1.4 liters motors), so that in this plan Kalina also ceased to lose their eternal rivals.
