Absolutely everyone was waiting for the appearance of this car, or rather not even himself, but information about him. Moreover, even those who under no circumstances would even think about buying it were waiting. Surprised? After all, we are not talking about a fabulously expensive supercar or another premium SUV. It's about the cheapest compact car. About Lada Granta Liftback.
What caused such interest in a rather ordinary car from the point of view of the global automotive industry? Exceptional appearance Lada Granta Liftback. It got to the point that many journalists and automotive experts dubbed Grant Liftback the most beautiful domestic car. And there is some truth in these bold statements. If we compare Grant with the familiar Priors and Kalinas, then she really looks beautiful against their background. But now it’s not shameful to compare Grant Liftback with foreign cars. And all thanks to perfectly matched proportions. This is what was lacking before. domestic cars. And it was not so easy for designers to ensure that their work was pleasing to the eye. For the sake of an attractive appearance, the shape of some body panels had to be changed, which obviously did not please the engineers and technologists. But the factory workers took such a step. And all for the sake of customers.
There are no complaints, if you do not forget about the cost of the car, and to the salon. And although everything is made of cheap hard plastic, but in terms of design, everything is not so bad. A nice three-spoke steering wheel, a concise instrument cluster, the readings from which are read in seconds, modest but quite convenient audio and climate control units - Granta Liftback will offer all this even in far from the richest configuration. Well, if you'd like to pay extra, you can admire the large color display, which will take up most of the front panel.
On the rear seats Lada Granta Liftback there is exactly as much space as in a sedan. Only the gap above the head has become literally a couple of centimeters smaller, but it is unlikely that passengers of average height will be able to feel it. And even if they can, then you should not blame the creators of the car for this. Beauty requires sacrifice, and for the sake of such beauty, sacrificing a slight decrease in headroom is not only possible, but necessary. For the sake of design, the trunk was also sacrificed. Or rather, not by themselves, but by access to it. Beautiful rear lights slightly narrowed the opening of the trunk. Has it gotten worse? Vice versa! After all, this is not a sedan, but a liftback, in which not a small trunk lid rises, but everything rear glass. Loading huge boxes is now nowhere easier. Yes, and the volume of the trunk will satisfy almost any motorist - 430 liters. And if you fold the backs rear seats, then you will have at your disposal 750 liters of free space.
And if in terms of Grant's design, Liftback is very different from a car with a sedan, then in technical terms noticeably less change. So the engines are already familiar to us. The base is a gasoline eight-valve unit with a volume of 1.6 liters, which develops 87 Horse power. It is offered only mechanical box gear shifting. But with a more powerful "sixteen-valve" with a volume of 1.6 liters, which produces 98 or 106 "horses", you can order not only "mechanics", but also automatic box gear shifting.
The Lada Granta Liftback is controlled, though not perfectly, but with dignity. It can be compared with budget foreign cars. But the future owner should be aware that handling and comfort level will largely depend on the configuration of the car. If you choose the most expensive configuration, which, among other things, will have chic alloy wheels with low-profile tires, then be prepared that the car will be quite hard to overcome all the bumps. But the handling is good. But on basic stamped wheels and tires with a high Grant profile, the Liftback is ideal for regions that cannot yet boast of perfect smooth roads. The energy intensity of the suspension does not occupy, and high-profile rubber will save you from constant shocks from small bumps.
This car was among the last to leave the VAZ assembly line, replacing the beloved by many Lada Kalina and Lada Samara. The model managed to impress quite quickly with some worthy features. The updated car in many respects differs from the analogues produced before it, it looks quite attractive among the model range of the domestic automotive industry.
Advantages of the car
The lucky ones who own such a car consider its main advantages to be the comfort and spaciousness of the cabin, high-quality assembly, and attractive design:
I would like to note that the basic equipment of the car is also abundant, despite the fact that the prices of the car were determined taking into account the financial capabilities of the middle strata of the population:
To develop the car, the well-known Kalina platform was used as the basis. The modernization process left only the doors in their original form, completely changing the body part. Changes have not bypassed luggage compartment, increasing its volume to five hundred liters:
The car is considered to be rightfully reliable vehicle, but sometimes there are breakdowns inherent in this model range. For this reason, having decided to purchase such a car, it is recommended to clarify how it is possible to repair the Lada Grant with your own hands.
The appearance of the car is an important thing that any vehicle owner cares about. But no one is immune from scratches, and you should know how to properly deal with them so that rust does not form.
V in general terms, the workflow looks like this:
Running gear repair
The main difference between the car is the absence of a support roller on the engine. This feature causes a lot of unpleasant moments. We propose to more clearly study the procedure for replacing the flywheel when changing the rear oil seals, failure of the ring gear, or for the purpose of grinding.
First you need to dismantle the gearbox. Further, in order to facilitate your work on the upcoming assembly, you should mark the placement of the flywheel and crankshaft. Now it is allowed to remove the flywheel holder, but the main element must remain stationary.
The climate equipment of the car should be approached carefully, the air conditioner should be turned on only when the engine is running, when the windows fog up, activate the fan at a reduced speed.
Do not be too lazy to undergo diagnostics, perform regular maintenance cars. These measures will help you avoid serious troubles and, as a result, significant financial costs.
Car owners need to learn that, first of all, you should not reduce the consumption of gasoline on the Lada Grant, but try not to allow excess fuel consumption.
