When the production of Shevi Niva is started 2. New Chevrolet Niva "frozen"

No one thought that the car shown on the MAS 2014 would be for GM-Avtovaz "Hardwhell". It turned out that the release plans are new Chevrolet Niva. I had to revise. This is what is known about the project, which, no matter what, continues to live.

Prevoy information about the new Chevrolet Niva began to flow in 2011. Then it became known that the GM-AvtovaZ enterprise is going to create his own engineering center, based in Togliatti, where the production of the current generation of Niva is located. As an indicative date of launching a new generation was called 2014, and information about the platform of the new Niva appeared.

Platform

on the platform of the new generation Chevrolet Niva

Jeffrey Glover, former head of GM-Avtovaz (July 2011):

"GM Engineering Center will be located here, and this organization will be responsible for the platform ... I do not know any platform that is a new one hundred percent. But we definitely will not be an old platform! Let me give you an example: Opel Astra 3000 (such a car was produced on GM-Avtovaz - approx. Ed.) And Opel Astra Family., Machines of two different generations.

Can you say that they do not differ anything? Yes, they are absolutely different - both in the "stuffing" and design. If you reproach from one car to another, you will immediately feel the difference. I want to have absolutely new carBut if you ask me if every nut in this car is newly created - I will answer, unambiguously, no.

If we talk about a marketing aspect, then we are conducting polls among our customers on why they buy our car. And in the new model I want to save strengthsthat are in the previous one. But the other important momentTo which we pay attention to the development of a fresh version - this is why people do not buy our car that they do not like - so that all negative moments are excluded if possible in the new model. This is just the principles that we will follow when creating a new platform. "

In December 2013, when the GM-Avtovaz president was already Gary Tilson, the company published an image that the idea of \u200b\u200bwhich components in the second generation will be new, which are upgraded, and which remains the same. From the picture followed that body carrying Car, engine, transmission, as well as bumpers and lighting, will be completely new. It became definitively clear that it is not about restyling existing, but about creating a fundamentally different model.

Engine

At the same time, at the end of 2013, it was stated that the main version of the engine for the SUV is a 135-strong Motor of the development of PSA Peugeot Citroen. There was a clarifying information: under the hood of the new Niva, a 1.8-liter 135-strong EC8 motor was to get up, which was installed on many models of the French concern, and in particular, as early as Xu was offered for the peugeot-406 sedan. Later it became known that the manufacture of the engine was going to organize the forces of CJSC "Plant of High-precision Parts" and indian company Avtec Ltd on the territory of the Samara region.



In the photo: the concept of the new Chevrolet Niva, declassified on the eve of the MMAS 2014

Two and a half years have passed (Gary Tilson briefly changed Jeffrey Glover again, and then), and the authors of the concept of the new Niva had time to submit it to the MMAS 2014, to face the difficulties in the development of the project, reconsider the details and terms of its implementation ... and plans for the French engine Fortunately or unfortunately, it was not destined to come true: In August 2016, it became known that AvtoVAZ will prepare for a long-time partner a modification of his. Initially, this four-cylinder petrol motor With a phasemator having a power of 122 liters. p., Designed for models Lada Xray. and vesta. Note that negotiations began in July 2015.

Transmission

At an early stage - even before the concept of the concept and the resulting crisis of the project - it was supposed to maintain the constant four-wheel drive and a mechanical transmission, and later suggest consumers and monople version. As transmission providers (manual transmission and transfer case) It was called manufacturers from India and Italy. The possibility of introducing the modification of the Niva with automatic box Transmissions.



However, by the current moment, many early considerations are most likely discarded. Four-wheel drive and "mechanics" will definitely remain in priority (as well as blocking inter-axis differential - This was stated on the MAS 2014), but the transmission supplier is likely to be different. It is possible that in a pair with the new VAZ-21179 vaz-21179, a mechanical box of VAZ-2124 will work on the new Niva, the development of which for the project became known in August 2016.

Design

As you know, it took place within the framework of the International Moscow Motor Show on August 24, 2014, although the exterior of the car was. The author of the design was Czech Ondrey Koromaz, a citizen of Australia, who previously engaged in the General Motors structure of the Holden brand style, and later turned to work in the Shanghai headquarters of the Corporation.




Exhibition instance (as well as the first running samples for testing) was prepared in the Italian Blue Engineering Design Bureau. The concept was equipped with "off-road" accessories - a snorkel, trunk, additional lighting, BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain T / A 235/70 / R16 tires - however it was clear that the proportions of the car remained close to the Chevrolet Niva of the first generation, although the car looked perfectly -On. Small sops were designed to provide a serial car excellent geometric patency, but one of them - the rear - quite limited the volume luggage compartment - In the same way as on the "Shniv" of the first generation. But the dimensions rose - the length of the concept was 4,316 mm, which is 260 mm more than that of the current Chevrolet Niva.

On the MMAS 2014, the deadline for the production of the new Chevrolet Niva was called this: the end of 2015 - the beginning of 2016. Subsequently, the deadlines were repeatedly shifted, but the project retained the chances of incarnation. At the end of July 2016, the director of GM-Avtovaz for sales and marketing confirmed that shown in 2014.

Package

In terms of complete sets, it is still known only what was announced on the MAS 2014: the SUV will receive the central lock, the electric drive of the rear-view mirrors, the sensor outdoor temperature, multimedia system With the ability to connect external devices, a set of security systems, a compass and a roll measurement device.

Test

Despite all the difficulties that Ji-Em-AvtoVAZ CJSC faced in 2015, the company has repeatedly stated that the project work continues. At one time he was almost "frozen", however, by mid-March 2015, Mulya aggregate people have already managed to be in Italy, Spain, Sweden and complete the complex winter tests in Kogalym.

In June 2015, it became known that about 30 copies of the SUV passed the entire test cycle scheduled for the time, including crash tests - just at this time one of the camouflaged samples. The details of these events could not find out, but according to the site, the results of the crash tests met the expectations of developers, and no additional changes It is not planned to contribute to the body design. The entire test complex was supposed to be completed in early 2016. And at the end of 2015, spy studies of the interior were leaked to the network.

New production and crisis of the project

Now GM-Avtovaz has only a assembly conveyor and a painting shop, and the body, engines and chassis components are supplied due to the fences of the neighboring "Big Brother" - AvtoVAZ. As part of the development of fresh Chevrolet Niva, Jeimovtsy planned that a new plant will be built on the OEZ Togliatti, which would allow GM-Avtovaz to have its own body production (stamping and welding), and in addition, on the territory of the technopark adjacent to the plant, it would be possible to post Division for the manufacture of their own (read - "not vazovsky") components of chassis and engines.

Chevrolet Niva 2018. new Body , engine, transmission. We do not really have so and do not wait for Chevrolet Niva 2 generations. The model was presented in 2014, but despite foreign Mark. The fate of the car was in the best traditions of the domestic auto industry. It seems to be a compact SUV and ready for production, but the serial release is constantly postponed. Perhaps it is in 2018 that we will see the light at the end of the tunnel.

In the open database of Russian Rospatent, Russia has long been registered the right to the interior of Chevrolet Niva second generation. The appearance of the model has long been known. But many points never managed to clarify. When the model comes out on the roads. Moreover, judging by these pictures, the pre-production model has already passed the run-in and tapping.

The exterior introduced officially a few years ago. The model turned out to be quite modern. On the dimensions of the new body, although a little more, but this is the same compact 5-door SUV. It is clear that the shots of the top model with the winch published expedition trunk and huge wheels. But even if all this is removed, it will be quite a worn car. Official photos We look later.

Stalls of the Interior Strip 2 can be found in the same database of Rospatent, plus a photo from a car dealership and spy shots. Inside the car was transformed beyond recognition. Well, deprived the rope lever. By the idea of \u200b\u200bthe designers, the drive turning on the full drive and reduced transmission It will appear as a washer of power on the electric drive. There will be modern dashboard, Central console with a bentometer and electronic compass.

Specifications Chevrolet Niva II

AT technical Plan The situation is as follows. The manufacturer announced the production of licensed petrol aggregate Developed by the French concern PSA EC8. This is 4 cylinder 16 valve motor Power 135 hp With a solid torque. Most likely instead of localization of production this motor on "GM-AvtoVAZ" decided to use the ready-made domestic 1.8 liter Motor VAZ-21179, which today put on LADA and Vesta Xray.. 122 horse power And 170 Nm of torque should be enough.

The use of an old Box and Distribution VAZ will require a serious adaptation for a more powerful and trapped motor. Sooner or later, this will have to do it and not even for Chevrolet Niva 2018, on for a new generation Lada 4 × 4 on which the VAZ-21179 engine will stand.

As for the transmission, it was originally planned to master the production of the finished option. mechanical box In the general case with a distribution. I even found the appropriate version of Isuzu. However, this question remains unresolved. Rear axle Still continuous, but will be enhanced. Steering It will become a rubber, and the front suspension will be more passenger, that is, from the lever will turn into a regular construction type "MacPherson".

Back in 2014, the shops of the new body plant were built for GM-AvtoVAZ and the Korean Production of Korean Production of the company "Hyundai Rotem" for stamping of the elements of the new compact SUV.. But today all works are frozen. The renewal of the project needs money. GM has practically frozen its development in Russia, and AvtoVAZ itself is constantly in losses and cannot afford investment. There are permanent conversations and loans of Russian state banks, but further rumors does not reach the case.

Chevrolet Niva price and configuration 2018 new body

About prices for a new model of a compact SUV speak early. But the manufacturer assured that the task was originally put to maintain the availability of the car, whatever they would not lose their niche of buyers. Judging by all the new generation may be insignificant more expensive than the old one. To date, the cheapest equipment of the old version of the car is offered for 608,000 rubles, and the most expensive version of 753 500 rubles.

SUV CHEVROLET NIVA is produced since 2002 and during this time managed to conquer the fame of a reliable car, not afraid of bad roads. But everything comes to an end, and the epoch of the first generation "Niva" ends, and ahead of us is waiting for more modern carpreserved top Qualities predecessor.

On August 27, within the framework of the MAS 2014, the concept car "Niva II" debuted, which will form the basis of the second generation of the SUV Chevrolet Niva. The car received a more brutal design with an abundance of angular shapes and stylish stamps, narrowed optics, 16-inch wheel disks And the factory additional off-road body kit (engine protection, optics, winch, etc.), which will be available as options.

The dimensions of the novelties practically will not change, a serious increase (a little less than 300 mm) got only the length of the "Niva" of the 2nd generation, which stretched to 4316 mm.

In the same brutal style, the interior of a new generation of an SUV, which will receive new seats, a fully recycled front panel, an updated instrument panel, more expensive finishing and improved noise insulation are also performed. The manufacturer promises a significant increase in the comfort of the cabin in comparison with the predecessor, so that the new generation of Chevrolet Niva will become not only more beautiful, but also more convenient.

It was previously assumed that under the hood of Chevrolet the second-generation, the first-generation will be located 1.8-liter gasoline atmospheric of the EC8 series, produced under the license of the French PSA concern. This engine has 4 inline cylinders, 16-valve timing and distributed fuel injection. Its capacity is about 136 hp, and the torque reaches 172 nm. The use of such a motor would allow the "second Niva" to more successfully compete with Rena Duster.
But, due to a sharp decline in the course of the Russian ruble, "Focus shifted" towards the "final version" of the new Togliatti 1.8-liter 4-cylinder 16-clinan 122-strong engine.

In addition, GM-AvtoVAZ plans to offer the buyers of the new SUV option "automatic", but the main gearbox will still remain a reliable 5-speed "mechanics".

Considers the developer and the possibility of installation on the 2nd generation of Chevrolet Niva diesel power plantBut while this question remains open.

Contrary to all rumors, Chevrolet Niva of the 2nd generation is built on a completely new off-road platform with anterior independent suspension and dependent coming. In the database, the car will receive a permanent four-step drive with a two-stage distribution and an inter-axle blocked differential. Due to the short soles and beveled bumpers, the new "NIVA" will retain its former geometric permeability, and the carrier of the SUV body will receive an additional gain, which should increase the safety of the car at an accident.

A little later, the concern "GM-AvtoVAZ" plans to release the front-wheel drive "urban" modification of Chevrolet NIVA 2-generation.



In the fall of 2014, the prototype of the new SUV passed the running tests in Italy and Spain. According to the first (optimistic) plans, the beginning of the serial release of Chevrolet Niva 2 was scheduled for December 2015, and the start of the sale of the car was to take place in mid-2016, but the financial crisis, the overthrown enterprise GM-AvtoVAZ in 2015 - significantly pushed these terms (the beginning The production was postponed until January 2019, and the start of sales, respectively, even later).

As for the price, then the manufacturer initially promised to keep the lower bar within 600,000 rubles for the basic modification, but in the light of the fall of the ruble exchange rate, the cost of 700-800 thousand should be expected.

Many are interested in the question when a new Chevrolet of the 2nd generation Niva will appear on sale. New car Chevrolet NIVA GM-Avtovaz has shown at the end of August 2014 at Moscow auto Salon. The unusual design of the second-generation shniiv is attributed to the attention of many visitors to the car dealership.

The SUV really turned out very pretty. Of course some similarity with previous model present, but pronounced brutal appearance does not allow to confuse different generations machines of one model.

It often happens when it comes out a new generation of any model, with minor changes in the grille of the radiator or optics. In an inexperienced look right away and you will not define that before you it turned out new model Auto. Here, another case. Chevrolet NIVA 2nd generation is radically different from its predecessor.

After successfully demonstrating the concept of Ji Em AvtoVAZ began the construction of new workshops, which were intended for the release of a new shniiva. The head of the company promised that the new Chevrolet Niva will enter the market in mid-2016.

But, in 2015, in connection with the changed situation in the market, General Motors decided to minimize the production of cars at its factory in St. Petersburg and stop selling opel cars and Chevrolet. The exception was made for Chevrolet Niva, the production of which was not stopped. Investing money in the production of a new SUV model, GM considered an unfavorable enterprise.

But, not everything is so hopeless. The Ministry of Industry of the Samara Region became interested in the project and volunteered to assist in the launch of new production. The ministry has published a declaration for 2016, from which it follows that the work on launching into serial production of the new Chevrolet Niva will continue. It's small, you need money. To launch an SUV in a series, you need to find almost 11 billion rubles.

Let's hope that the necessary funds will find a new Chevrolet Niva on sale in the very near future.

The price of the current version of Chevrolet Niva begins from 555,000 rubles.
