New products from the Russian automobile industry in 2019-2020

Vesta Sport

The first premiere of this year from the Volzhsky Automobile Plant will be a sports modification of the Vesta sedan.

The interior features sports front seats, and red inserts are used in the trim. The price of the car will be about 1.00 million rubles.

New GAZ

In the next year or two, the automobile plant in Nizhny Novgorod plans to “put on the wings,” or rather, on wheels, a number of interesting cars.

"Volga" 5000 GL

The most anticipated event should be the return of the Volga to production. True, the car will become completely unrecognizable. The exterior will be made in a more rapid and streamlined form, which can definitely be regarded as an application for the “sportiness” of the car. Under the hood it is planned to install a 290-horsepower internal combustion engine, equipped with a 7-band automatic transmission. Volga-5000 will have many additional functions:

1. LED front and rear optics.
2. Modern multimedia system.
3. Multi-level complex of active and passive safety.
4. All-round cameras.

The approximate cost of all this splendor has not yet been disclosed.

"Gazelle-Next"

The hard-working Gazelle-Next will also undergo restyling this year. The Cityline modification, specially designed for use as a city minibus, will go on sale. It has a luxury interior and a wide double door. According to the creators' plan, Cityline should displace imported minibuses - Fords, Fiats and other "foreigners" - from the streets of our cities.

It is also planned to launch production of an electric minibus at the Next base. It will be propelled through our streets by a 98-kilowatt electric motor, allowing it to accelerate to a quite respectable 90 km/h. True, the range, compared to many foreign analogues, is not so great - only 120 km on one full battery charge. Another Next option involves installing a diesel engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.

Other restyled changes

During the current year, the following GAZ models should undergo a slight restyling:

1. "Sable", celebrating its 20th anniversary. It is planned to restyle the exterior and supplement the line of power units with a 120-horsepower diesel engine and a 107-horsepower gasoline internal combustion engine. An all-wheel drive version will also appear, with an estimated price of 1.5-2 million rubles.
2. "Lawn". Versions of the flatbed truck will be equipped with a crane with a lifting capacity of 3 tons and a reach of 10 m.
3. "Sadko." It will be made more comfortable for the driver and passenger. It will receive a steering wheel adjustable in two planes, a wheel inflation system, and drum brakes.

Xray Sport

The next sports version of AvtoVAZ will be the Xray Sport crossover.

The designer was able to create a sporty appearance using:

• the rapid image of the front;
• reduced clearance;
• individual design on 17-inch wheels;
• contrasting red inserts;
• exhaust diffusers integrated into the rear bumper.

The interior has a multifunctional sports steering wheel, special inserts on the pedals and seats with strong support.

The car received a 16-valve engine with a power of 119.0 horsepower, which, together with a 5-speed manual transmission, allows it to accelerate to 195 km/h. For Russian buyers, the price of a car will start at 609.90 thousand rubles.

Granta Cross

The next new modification of Grant's small car will be a cross version.

The car will be produced in a station wagon body and will differ from the usual version in the following details:

• increased ground clearance;
• black lower body kit;
• protective elements in wheel arches;
• large moldings on the doors.

The price of an all-terrain station wagon will start at 470.00 thousand rubles.

Lada Vesta restyling

This is not a completely new one, but a review and revision of an existing car. First of all, it has already been announced that the chassis will be used by the B0, which is used in the XRAY Cross. In fact, there will be a combination of models that will make cars easier to manufacture and assemble.

This solution allows you to add the Nissan HR16 engine (114 horsepower) to the power units. However, a Jatco JF015E CVT transmission will be added. The 1.6-liter (106 hp) and 1.8-liter (122 hp) engines will also remain in the lineup. A classic manual transmission is available in the basic configuration, with a robotic transmission available for purchase. Also, the updated version of Lada Vesta will be equipped with a push-button electronic stop brake.

On the outside, the Lada Vesta doesn't change much. The following items will be updated:

• grill radiator;
• nozzles for washing the windshield (they are removed from the hood and placed directly under the glass);
• alloy wheel design;
• internal (large portrait-oriented touch screen appears)

In the presented diagram you can see what the interior of the updated version will look like. The developers also promised to update the door cards and some decorative elements, especially the climate control buttons.

Granta CNG

A further development of the Grant model will be the mass production of passenger cars with gas equipment with the CNG index.

In this version, the standard version of the small car will receive two gas cylinders with a volume of 200 liters. This will allow the car to cover a distance of up to 1000 km when fully refueled.

The exterior and interior of the CNG are completely similar to the production version of the Grant sedan. The price of the new item will increase to 500.50 thousand rubles. Due to the use of gas fuel, the increase in the cost of the machine can be recouped in 2.5-3 years.

Aurus doesn't lower the bar

Serial production of the Aurus Senat sedans should begin in the spring of next year, and the Komendant SUV will join them in the summer of 2022. The appearance of the second model has not yet been fully approved. Director of the Style Center of the Moscow Institute of Federal State Unitary Enterprise NAMI, Yuri Chernenko, in an interview with the YouTube channel Rosmould_Rosplast, said that constant work is underway to update the Aurus family of cars, both in the exterior and in the interior.

Lada Vesta will have 14 special versions

Lada 4×4 CNG

Another gas-powered car from AvtoVAZ will be the Lada 4×4 Urban model in a 5-door version. The SUV, whose production is scheduled to begin in 2021, will receive the CNG index in its designation. The car's design will include a 90-liter gas cylinder located in the luggage compartment.

The Urban will continue to be equipped with a 1.7-liter engine, but its power will drop from 83 horsepower to 75. When fully charged with methane, the car will be able to travel up to 1,000 km, and if necessary, it can switch to gasoline while driving. The manufacturer will announce the cost of the model closer to the start of production, but according to auto experts, it will be about 600.00 rubles.

No news from Vesta

The biggest intrigue is the restyling of Vesta. They were waiting for it last year, they hoped for it this year, especially since there was a reason - the Moscow Motor Show in August. Now it is no longer certain whether the updated Vesta will appear in 2021. The press service of AvtoVAZ reported that it is too early to talk about specific release dates for new products.

Based on the results of the first half of the year, it remains one of the most popular cars on the market. In addition, last year this model added more equipment and acquired a modern automatic transmission. Meanwhile, experts believe that the car’s popularity has reached a plateau. Vesta has been in production for almost five years, it’s time for restyling, albeit a light one.

No worse than foreign cars

“In my opinion, Lada Vesta does not yet need fundamental changes, since this model is not that old on the market. You can equip, for example, make changes to the optics or update the multimedia system. Now, during the crisis, the company feels good in the eyes of the buyer, it has the opportunity to update its model range. In my opinion, the fact that the company can now devote its time not only to sales, but also to improving its models is only a plus for it in times of crisis,” the head of the Avilon sales department told Izvestia. Volkswagen" Maxim Vasiliev.

Full length: the new Gazelle will compete with imported cars

Why the latest van could benefit as the commercial vehicle market falls

It is likely that the restyled Vesta will receive a new steering wheel - in any case, a steering wheel with many keys was patented by AvtoVAZ some time ago.

Xray Cross

The crossover of the 2021 model year under the designation Cross has, compared to the base version, primarily improved cross-country ability.

It was possible to achieve such parameters using the following solutions:

• increased ground clearance to 215 mm;
• using a powerful subframe;
• installation of an energy-intensive chassis;
• use of lower body kit and protective linings in wheel arches.

The interior of the car, which has high ergonomics, is completely identical to the base model. The machine uses a 122.0 hp engine. s., which is coupled with a five-speed manual transmission. The crossover received five versions of configurations, and the minimum price is 755.00 thousand rubles.

Van

AvtoVAZ plans to begin production of a commercial vehicle called Van in 2021. The model is based on the Renault Dokker car, but the design of the new product will correspond to the corporate style of the Volzhsky Automobile Plant, and the car will be equipped with domestic units. The car will receive two modifications: passenger and cargo.

The company expects that the success of the car can be brought about by little competition among small domestic commercial vehicles and lower cost compared to foreign analogues.

Prospects for the automotive industry in Russia

Due to the systemic crisis, the causes of which arose back in the 90s of the last century, the development of the domestic automotive industry is extremely slow and in many ways impossible without direct government support.

However, recently there have been positive trends and progress in this direction. Thus, in 2015, the Ministry of Industry of the Russian Federation adopted a program for the development of the automobile industry in Russia until 2021. The following work is being carried out within the framework of this document:

• increasing the volume of investments aimed at technical re-equipment of the country's largest automakers;
• development of production of basic components, as well as localization of production of main products;
• expanding funding for research and development (R&D);
• meeting the demand for passenger cars in the domestic market by increasing the production of domestic models;
• development of the export component.

In addition, great importance is attached to the investments of world auto giants in the domestic industry. They can be carried out both in the form of joint ventures for the production of foreign car brands, and in the form of opening our own production facilities of various cycles in our country.

Niva

At the Moscow Motor Show, AvtoVAZ presented a project for the new Niva 4×4 2021 model year.

The design of the shown car combined elements of the old SUV and the corporate style of the company's current models. The almost finished interior design includes a dashboard with color displays, a multifunction steering wheel and front seats with pronounced support.

The new product is supposed to use a gasoline engine with 106.0 horsepower. The car will have two versions - all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive. The approximate cost of a Niva 4×4 will be 900.00 thousand rubles.

The new Niva has become 30 cm longer, has an angular appearance, narrowed front optics and a factory off-road kit consisting of engine protection, winch, etc.

The interior will also be designed in a brutal style with a modified dashboard, improved sound insulation and comfortable seats.

Diesel options will appear in the wide range of engines offered.

Aurus Senate

One of the most anticipated new products of the Russian automobile industry in 2019-2020 will be the start of mass production of the Aurus Senat limousine.

The car with all-wheel drive transmission is equipped with an eight-cylinder engine with a capacity of 600 hp. With. together with a 9-speed automatic transmission.

The highly comfortable interior of the car is decorated exclusively with premium materials, the main ones of which are leather and natural wood. According to EuroNcap tests, the limousine received five stars for safety. It is planned to produce 120 copies of the car in 2021. The price of the model is almost 10.0 million rubles.

New products from the Russian automobile industry 2021-2022

For several more years, the Russian automobile industry did not indulge in new products, which were born extremely rarely, and even then, most often representing only the fruits of the modernization of previous cars. Today, the number of domestic brands has been reduced to a minimum - but the remaining ones demonstrate a desire to develop, plus a new manufacturer, Aurus, has appeared.

For example, UAZ is constantly modernizing its line of models, and with the arrival of the Swede Bo Andersson at AvtoVAZ (later he was replaced by Nicolas Mora), the Russian auto giant began to announce new products one after another.

Among the expected new products of the Russian automobile industry in 2021-2022 are the Russian Prado project from UAZ, a new generation of the Lada Niva SUV, models of the premium Aurus brand, an upgraded Lada Largus station wagon, as well as a restyling of the Vesta family.

New products in the domestic automotive industry 2020-2021

Aurus Senat S600
Aurus Senat S600 became the first officially presented production model on a single modular platform from the “Cortege” project. It is extremely difficult for ordinary citizens to buy a luxury sedan costing over 18 million rubles, since production volumes are still small.

Aurus Komendant Representatives of the Aurus company expect that their most popular model in the line will be the luxury SUV Komendant - the premiere of its production version is planned for 2021, but sales of the new product will begin only in 2022.

Aurus Arsenal The Russian automobile brand Aurus includes a premium Arsenal minivan, about which there are not very many details yet, but such cars are already actively used in special-purpose garages. In the future, Arsenal will also be available for free sale.

Russian Prado project For 2021, UAZ announced the “Russian Prado” project, which is a deep modernization of the Patriot SUV. The car will receive a new 2.3-liter turbo engine, a completely redesigned interior and modern equipment, but today the project turned out to be frozen indefinitely - alas.

Lada Niva Travel In the twenty-first year, AvtoVAZ unexpectedly updated the Lada Niva SUV, which received the prefix Travel to its name (and the older Lada 4×4 is now called Legend). Alas, all the technical “stuffing” remained unchanged, but the new front end now resembles the RAV4.

Lada Largus FL In the spring of the twenty-first, AvtoVAZ presented the restyled Lada Largus FL station wagon, as well as the Cross and van versions. The cars received a front end in the signature X-style and a modernized 90-horsepower engine. In total, 267 different parts were changed in the car.

Lada Vesta FL AvtoVAZ promised to present the new Lada Vesta FL in the fall of 2020, but due to the coronavirus, the premiere of the new product was postponed to 2021. The car has been prepared with a modified exterior and interior, and there may be some surprises in terms of technology.

Chevrolet Niva 2 The wait for the completely new Chevrolet Niva 2 SUV is quite long - initially the start of its production was scheduled for mid-sixteenth, but then the project was temporarily frozen. Now things seem to have moved on, but now it turns out that the Chevy Niva 2 will become a new product in 2021 or even 2022 - and this is in the best case.

Lada 4×4 II The premiere of the new second-generation Lada 4×4 SUV, which may become similar to the 4×4 Vision concept, has been announced for the fall of 2021. It is expected that the car will become larger than its predecessor, will retain versions in three- and five-door body styles and will acquire a 122-horsepower 1.8-liter engine, as well as a modern transmission.

Lada Van In the eighteenth year, information appeared about a new model under the working name Lada Van. It is expected that this will be a redesigned version of the Renault Dokker van, but the appearance of such a vehicle should only be expected in 2021-2022.

Lada XCODE At the Moscow Motor Show in two thousand and sixteen, AvtoVAZ presented a stylish conceptual subcompact SUV Lada XCODE, made in the corporate X-shaped style. There is no exact information yet about the debut of the production version of this model, but it is assumed that this new product may appear in 2021-2022.

Russian new cars 2019

Lada Vesta Sport New for 2021 from AvtoVAZ is the serial Lada Vesta Sport sedan, which outwardly completely replicates the concept presented a couple of years ago, and under the hood of the car there is a modernized 1.6-liter engine - its power has been increased from 112 to 145 hp.

Lada Vesta CVT Also in 1919, Togliatti began producing a family of Lada Vesta models equipped with a Jatco CVT, which is installed exclusively on cars with a 1.6-liter Nissan engine with 113 hp. This box replaced the AMT robotic transmission.

UAZ Patriot automatic transmission And in 2021, UAZ Patriot SUVs began to be equipped with a full-fledged six-speed Punch Powerglide 6L50 automatic transmission, capable of withstanding much greater torque compared to what the 2.7-liter 150-horsepower ZMZ Pro engine produces. We hope there will be no reliability problems.

New 2018

Lada Vesta Cross Sedan The Vesta family has grown to five modifications - after the successful launch of the cross modification of the station wagon on the market, the sedan also received a similar version. The elevated Lada Vesta Cross Sedan sports a protective body kit, increased ground clearance, special interior decor and an exclusive body shade.

Lada XRAY Cross Following the raised Vesta SW Cross station wagon, the X Ray hatchback also acquired a similar modification. The presentation of the new Lada XRAY Cross model in serial version took place at MIAS 2018, and its main feature, in addition to the body kit and increased ground clearance, was the system for selecting driving modes.

Lada Granta FL family Togliatti residents restyled the Lada Granta model, which received an X-shaped front end in the style of Vesta, as well as a modernized instrument panel in the cabin. And, in addition to the sedan and liftback, the family now includes a hatchback and station wagon, replacing Kalina.

New 2017

Lada Vesta SW The main Russian new cars for 2021 are the Lada Vesta SW station wagon, as well as the all-terrain Cross modification based on it. Both models were presented in production form at the same time, and their sales began in August. In addition to a different body, the five-door Vesta received some additional improvements, which will later migrate to the sedan.

Lada Vesta Cross SW If the regular Vesta station wagon does not impress you, then its all-terrain version Lada Vesta SW Cross looks truly chic. It’s a car you’d want to buy for its appearance alone, which hasn’t changed much compared to the brilliant concept shown earlier. It is expected that in the future the sedan will also receive a version of the Cross.

Lada Vesta Signature The extended sedan Lada Vesta Signature was originally presented under the name VIP, and it was built as an experiment in a single copy. Then a second, slightly modernized version appeared, and by the end of 2021 sales of this modification were supposed to begin, but only on pre-orders.

Lada XRAY Sport It was expected that in the eighteenth year the Lada XRAY Sport modification would enter the market, the pre-production version of which was shown back in the sixteenth, but then it became known that AvtoVAZ decided to abandon this model.

New 2015-2016

Lada Vesta Without a doubt, the most anticipated new product of 2015 on the Russian market was the Lada Vesta sedan, which is positioned as the successor to the Priora model. The latter, however, continued to be produced in parallel with Vesta until 2021. Sales of the new Lada Vesta started on November 25, but prices turned out to be steep, so there was no rush demand. Later, the model acquired station wagon, cross and sport versions.

Lada XRAY Another expected new product from AvtoVAZ was the high Lada XRAY hatchback on the French B0 platform. Its appearance in the showrooms of official dealers took place in February 2021. As you can see, despite the use of the Logan chassis, the bodies of the new Lada models are completely original, quite modern and quite stylish. But the price tags turned out to be unexpectedly high.

Lada Largus Cross All-terrain modifications based on standard hatchbacks and station wagons are fashionable. Foreign automakers make these all the time, so why not ours? Please, an artificially raised Lada Largus Cross station wagon with a protective body kit around the perimeter of the body. As a result, demand exceeded supply, so AvtoVAZ is increasing the production volume of the new product. It's just that the prices are high.

Lada Kalina Cross The Lada Kalina Cross all-terrain station wagon was built according to a similar recipe. The ground clearance here has been increased by 23 mm compared to the original. This was done through a modernized suspension and other tires with an increased profile. On the outside, the car features a protective body kit made of unpainted plastic, and the interior has bright inserts.

Lada 4×4 Urban The Lada 4×4 SUV will not soon receive a new generation, but this does not prevent it from acquiring different versions. One of them was the Urban modification with new bumpers, exclusive body paint and a modernized interior. Later, a five-door version of Urban appeared.

UAZ Patriot 2017 The updated UAZ Patriot has hardly changed in appearance, but has received a completely new interior, improved equipment, modernized technical components, a one-piece gas tank instead of two separate ones before, but at the same time the SUV was deprived (we hope temporarily) of a diesel engine, which turned out to be too expensive bring it up to Euro-5 standards.

UAZ Pickup Like the original Patriot, the restyled UAZ Pickup received the same changes. There is a retouched exterior, a modernized interior, and a rich list of standard equipment in expensive versions. In general, it is a very worthy competitor to foreign cars at a more affordable price, but with its own characteristics.

Hunter

For 2021, UAZ has planned to begin production of a restyled version of the legendary Hunter SUV. The SUV will retain its recognizable appearance, which will be complemented by new rims, a redesigned front bumper and improved exterior mirrors.

In the interior, it is planned to install a new dashboard, a modified steering wheel and the use of improved finishing materials. Among the main design features, it is necessary to note the installation of power steering. The line of power units will not change and will consist of gasoline engines with a capacity of 114 and 128 hp. With. together with a 5-speed manual transmission. The restyled Hunter will receive two versions of equipment, while the cost of the minimum Classic is set at 470.00 thousand rubles.

Patriot

The Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant has planned to begin production of an updated version of the SUV in the fall of this year. The main feature of the popular all-terrain vehicle will be the installation of a 6-speed automatic transmission. The new automatic transmission will be combined with a 2.7 liter engine with a power of 150.0 hp. With.

The interior will change finishing materials and add a handle for comfortable entry into the front seats, as well as a central armrest with a special two-section compartment. According to some reports, LED optics can be installed as an option. The price of the new product in its minimum version will be approximately 770.00 rubles.

GAZelle NEXT Electro

In 2021, the GAZ enterprise will begin production of the next modification of the GAZelle NEXT Electro electric bus. The car will be produced on a new unified platform, which is intended for all light-duty vehicles of the company.

Key technical characteristics include:

• load capacity – 1,250 t;
• power of the electric motor – 133.0 l;
• distance reserve (urban cycle) – 120.0 km;
• Full charge duration – 3.0 hours;

• maximum speed – 110 km/h;
• the amount of climb overcome is up to 25%.

The approximate price of an electric vehicle in starting equipment is set at 7.80 million rubles.

GAZelle NEXT

In 2021, the popular commercial vehicle with an all-metal body will be updated. Among the spot changes in the appearance of the car, we should highlight the reduced size of the hood, stepped bumpers and a massive radiator grille. The interior is still quite conservative, but has good space and ergonomics, as well as pleasant finishing materials. Among the changes in the cabin, the enlarged screen of the multifunctional complex stands out.

The existing diesel engine with a capacity of 120.0 hp is used as the power unit. With. with which a 5-speed manual transmission is used. The price of the model is 1.35 million rubles.
