When operating a Chevrolet Niva car, any owner, sooner or later, is bound to encounter the problem of needing some paint somewhere. Either there are chips on the hood, or some kind of scratch. The quality of painting of Chevrolet Niva cars is very good in my opinion, with year-round use in salty Moscow, the factory coating does not cause any complaints after five years of operation. But nevertheless, I also encountered the problem of touch-up.

Of course I searched and found the number for that paint. what color is my car, but I decided that what I dug up would be useful to many “Shnivovods”, do not be lazy to add your comments on the issues of Chevrolet Niva colors, Chevrolet Niva paint numbers, maybe I can add and correct something.

What is the difficulty? It would seem that it could be simpler in our world of abundance. But it was not there! At a minimum, in order to buy the coveted can of paint, you will need to know the paint color number, as well as the manufacturer and type of paint, acrylic, alkyd, two-component, etc.

And here lies the first secret.

But the fact is that different manufacturers of automotive enamels have their own numbering, moreover, manufacturers often produce certain paints for any project! Just as the manufacturer of the Chevrolet Niva, the GM concern, did. A very important point is who produces paints for a particular car manufacturer, because... Each car paint manufacturer has its own numbering. In particular, for the production of the Chevrolet Niva, the GM concern uses paints from the world-famous concern MOTIP DUPLI GROUP (Holland-Germany). The Motip concern, which produces paints for painting the Chevrolet Niva, thanks to its flexible marketing and active innovation policy, is a recognized world leader in the production and sale of the widest range of aerosol paints and varnishes for automotive, household and decorative purposes, as well as high-quality auto cosmetics and technical aerosols .

The Motip Dupli Group concern was formed in 1998 as a result of a merger (Holland), Vogelsang Holding (Germany-Switzerland) and the company producing putties and primers Weber&Wirth.

Of course, I managed to find out all this in the process of searching for the required paint for my beloved Chevy Nivika, which I am sharing here.

So, let's start with the colors of the Chevrolet Niva car produced by GM, and at different times, Chevrolet Niva cars were produced in completely different colors and, moreover, the colors of previous years were not released later, but in the table I did not consider it necessary to divide the colors into old and new, because The article is not so much historical as technical and is designed to help people look for their paint number for their favorite Chevrolet Niva car:

Engine from Priora and diesel - is it true?

Many people have probably heard from some sources that AVTOVAZ plans to install a derated engine from Priora with a power of 90 hp in the Chevrolet Niva. This news appeared about six months ago, but until now the motors had not been installed. It is worth saying that this is nothing more than a newspaper canard or fiction.

The fact is that to install even a Priorov engine on a Chevrolet Niva, a huge number of alterations are necessary, which will affect the economics of production. It is not profitable for the plant to change the engine on a car that is still in strong demand.

The same applies to diesel engines. The Chevrolet Niva has never been produced with a diesel engine. To confirm this, it is worth saying that VAZ does not have a single diesel engine at the moment. The only supporter of the engine that was installed serially on the Niva is the Z18XE and this was until 2006.

The official response from AVTOVAZ regarding the engines was also given a year ago. According to the chief engineer, Chevrolet Niva, at least on its platform, will never receive a new engine. The fact is that installing a new engine will require serious modifications to the suspension and braking system - that is, a deep modernization of the model. And this entails huge costs and a decrease in the unification of old models with new ones. In addition, the 1.7 engine produces 80 hp. perfectly balanced with the rest of the car in terms of weight and load distribution, so it stays with it.

Engine Specifications

• Volume: 1690 cm3
• Power: 80 hp
• Torque: 127 N/m at 4000 rpm
• Maximum speed: 140 kilometers per hour
• Fuel consumption: 10 l/100 km
• Toxicity standards: Euro-5

The potential of this motor without loss of service life is 100 hp, but this can only be achieved after serious intervention in the design. In general, the engine’s properties are sufficient for a quiet, measured ride and even transporting a trailer.

How to find? Vin Plate where the body paint code/number is indicated on CHEVROLET

usually located either under the hood near the engine or on the inside of the glove compartment lid. In the figure below you can see possible options for the location of the paint code on the Vin Plate, indicating the paint number/code associated with the car model. Chevrolet has made it difficult to find the location of the Service Parts Identification plate where the color number is indicated. Over the years they have used just as many different places to place it. The parent company, GM, produces so many makes and models of cars that it would seem time to standardize the location of the paint code nameplate, but this is not the case. Usually, when problems arise with finding a paint number, it is better to first look in the glove compartment or somewhere in the spare tire area. If that doesn't help, then you just start looking everywhere.

This is what the Vin Plate of Chevrolet cars looks like in the photo, where the paint number is located.

Where is the code for chevrolet paint?

The PROMIKS computer enamel selection laboratory offers aerosol cans and a tinting pencil (paint with a brush) for the paint code for any car. Our main specialization. enamel. We carry out computer selection of enamel using modern PPG Deltron equipment.

If you are faced with the problem of chips and scratches on the body of your car, if you need restoration work and painting done quickly and accurately. we will do this in a few hours.

How to determine damage using a thickness gauge?

It will not be difficult to conduct research on any brand of car using such a tool. You will need the original paint thickness on the car, which can be found in the table. Write down or remember this value. Then use the device to determine the paintwork indicators on all parts of the car. This procedure is carried out in a few minutes and does not require any special skills. But it is important to do everything accurately and without doubt.

The only caveat worth remembering here is the quality of the device. Sometimes the data from the table will not agree completely because the thickness gauge can be a little deceiving. If the deviation is within 10-15%, you can ignore such moments. But exceeding the permissible values ​​by several times is a guarantee of poor-quality body repairs to the car. Most often, paintwork in such places can be visually distinguished from factory coatings.

What is the First Car and Family Car program?

For those who want to buy a Chevrolet Niva as their first car, there is a very useful “First Car” program. The program applies to all Russian-made cars and provides a loan for the purchase of a car worth up to 1 million rubles, with a 10% discount on cars, and 25% for residents of the Far East.

The most important condition is that the borrower has never owned any car, and the car he wants to purchase has a year of manufacture no earlier than 2022. Of course, the borrower must have a category B license.

You can also buy a Chevrolet Niva under the Family Car program. The discount will be the same, but in this case, the buyer must be the parent of one or more children. There should be appropriate notes about this in the passport. This is where the most interesting discount comes from - Niva Chevrolet.

By the way, unlike the “First Car” program, this program has certain advantages. It is enough to confirm the absence of ownership of other cars purchased on credit in the 17-18s. In addition, a family can purchase two cars. Every parent has the right to purchase a car for personal use, regardless of whether they have children together or not.

Used 2022 Chevrolet Niva - how much will it cost?

It is not at all necessary to buy a new Niva Chevrolet at a car dealership. A one-year-old car, which is still under warranty, can be purchased second-hand. It will be in the same condition and noticeably lower in price.

Studying the market, you can understand that the price is not falling much. But the base is practically not valued on the market. The price starts at 450 thousand rubles. Moreover, the price in Moscow and the regions does not differ much.

Most one-year-old cars are sold not second-hand, but from used car dealerships. It is rare to find a person who sells a car himself. The fact is that when buying a new car there will be no discount and in order to get it, you have to trade-in your car. Hence the huge number of used Nivas in showrooms.

A used Niva has a huge advantage - a one-year-old car does not wear out much with use, especially if it was often used only in the city. But the price for the LEM package can be from 600 to 700 thousand rubles. Pretty good, even with the discount at the showroom, it's much cheaper. And as a bonus, there is a two-year warranty remaining.

When purchasing, you should pay attention to the body. A car that is often used off-road, even after a year of operation, may have flaws in the form of small scratches or even pockets of rust. This is facilitated by small stones that fly out from under the wheels, scratching the paintwork. Therefore, always ask where the car was used and try not to take it from hunters and fishermen. There is a risk of buying a one-year-old, but very dead specimen.

The second point is problems affecting all copies that came off the assembly line - leaking crankshaft oil seals, howling of the transfer case, rattling in the cabin. Unfortunately, it comes quite quickly, and no one is immune from this.

If a used car has jolts and knocking noises when changing gears, then most likely the mileage is too low. This is how the transmission dies - backlash begins in it, appearing every time the clutch is released.

Options and prices

Since 2022, the configurations of the Chevrolet Niva have not yet changed. And the price seriously depends on the configurations, discounts and current promotions. For more detailed information, please contact your dealer in the desired city. Prices in Moscow and the region today are as follows:

SL - from 599,000 (686,000) rubles

This is the most basic configuration, which will not have air conditioning, power windows, central locking, security system and even airflow for the rear passengers. In addition, the base model will not even be able to boast of additional sound insulation of the body and a passenger airbag. The basic version is quite crude. It is more suitable for the Niva’s intended purpose - operation in severe off-road conditions. Minimum electronics, less fuel consumption, but if desired, any of the additional equipment installed on other trim levels can easily be installed on the SL. You can save a lot of money on this if other options are not needed. But there is a drawback - the SL is only available in one color - white.

L — from 627,300 (717,000) rubles

In this configuration, the Chevrolet Niva is much more interesting. Now the interior will be equipped with audio preparation, USB sockets, airflow for the rear passengers, central locking, an immobilizer and power windows for the front doors. The car will also be equipped with heated and electrically adjustable mirrors, DRLs and a spare wheel with an R15 rim. DRL is implemented according to the scheme of switching on the low beam after starting the engine.

LC - from 672,300 (767,000) rubles

With this configuration, the interior begins to be equipped with air conditioning and a cooled glove box. In addition, the rear hemisphere will be tinted, and L-shaped headrests will be added. The wheels will be chrome plated. Diameter - 15 inches. The rest of the equipment is not very different from the previous ones, but it is perfectly balanced in terms of price and necessary options.

LE - from 704,700 (803,000) rubles

But here the size of the wheels becomes significantly larger. Now they are R16. And the equipment is quite rich. Headlights with black housing, fog lights, black interior, car alarm with remote control, passenger mirror in the visor. For some reason, the automaker removed the system for securing child restraints from this particular configuration. However, this does not prevent you from fastening the seat to a regular belt.

It is with this configuration that the Chevrolet Niva gets a snorkel for driving over water obstacles, a trailer control unit and roof rails on the car’s roof. The snorkel makes it a great competitor to the equally popular Renault Duster.

GLC — 747,000 (850,000) rubles

A cap appears on the spare wheel, which is painted in the color of the Niva’s body, and in general, the bumpers, linings, etc. in this configuration are all painted in the color of the body. A chrome trim appears on the radiator grille. The Niva also receives more comfortable seats and a canopy for rear passengers, an additional sound insulation package, parking assistance systems, seat height adjustment, armrest, heated seats and glass.

A new feature in this configuration is its own multimedia system with a 2din screen. It has everything from navigation to a simple radio. In addition, the car receives an external antenna for it. The manufacturer adds a passenger front airbag to the safety kit.

This configuration does not include a towbar or snorkel. This Niva is a lightweight version of LEM.

LEM - from 756,000 (860,000) rubles

This is the top-end configuration of the Chevrolet Niva; accordingly, its price is noticeably higher than that of the base model. There are no significant differences from the previous configuration, but the owner can choose mirrors painted in body color or not. Unlike the previous configuration, the TCU and snorkel are returning to the Niva.

Tuning Chevrolet Niva

The Chevrolet Niva is a new modification of the VAZ 2121 all-terrain vehicle, produced in the USSR. The latest model has a streamlined body and modern technical options. But despite all this, the model remained Spartan in terms of equipment.

Its appearance, as well as the level and quality of its interior, leave much to be desired. Therefore, in terms of tuning, Niva Chevrolet provides a wide range of actions. Every driver strives to personalize their car so that they are different from everyone else.

Do-it-yourself tuning Niva Chevrolet

Very often, car owners “pump up” their vehicle for off-road driving. This technological process cannot be called complex. You can install a power body kit, which includes a powerful front bumper made of bent steel pipes with a platform for a winch

It is not difficult to produce this item; it is important to have the necessary tools and equipment for working with metal

Off-road improvements include the installation of new wheels and tires. Some owners of domestic SUVs install a snorkel - an exhaust pipe that goes onto the roof. This may be necessary in cases where the car will be used in extreme off-road conditions.

Separately, it is worth mentioning the installation of the winch. Some people make the mistake of thinking that this element is only necessary for participants in various off-road competitions. Such an assistant will be an excellent help when relaxing in nature, in the country and fishing.

You can purchase an electric winch, which will allow you to independently get out of holes and ditches, and also help others get out of difficult areas. Some people hide the equipment body under a homemade metal casing. You can also install protective, military paint, matte or glossy.

Powertrain tuning

There are many types of improvements to the Niva Chevrolet power plant, which can significantly increase its technical data. Some owners do:

• Replacing the crankshaft and piston rings, which allows you to increase the volume by 0.1 liters;
• Replacing injectors;
• Replacement of the control unit;
• Correction of the geometry of the power unit by increasing the diameter of the valves and the pusher well for the intake and exhaust ports. New pushers with a diameter of at least 1 millimeter are needed;
• Sealing of valves, which increases power by 10 percent;
• Replacing the catalyst with a flame arrester. This applies to tuning the Chevrolet Niva exhaust system, but it really helps to improve the technical data of the engine.

To perform these manipulations, direct intervention in the technical part of the vehicle is required. The best choice can be called chip tuning of the Chevrolet Niva engine - working with the "brains" of the engine - the injector.

This requires software knowledge. In this case, you can change the technical settings of the car. This method can be called the most accessible.

Suspension tuning

Since this car was created for driving on bad roads, the car’s suspension must cope with serious loads, but not all of them and not all the time. To do this, you can improve cross-country ability by strengthening the suspension. The simplest solution is lifting or increasing the ground clearance. You can also improve the transfer case by eliminating childhood diseases. For example you can:

• Change the base bearings to double row ones;
• Replace covers;
• Don't forget to replace the seals;
• Equip the transfer case with an auxiliary support for the shaft.

Interior tuning

In the standard plan, many people reupholster the interior. Those who have money buy genuine leather. It is also possible to install sports-type seats with pronounced lateral support instead of standard simple seats.

Fans of a bright interior resort to xenon or bi-xenon lighting for the interior and underbody. Improved sound insulation wouldn't hurt. Instead of the basic stereo system, you can install an “on-board computer”, which can also be called a functional solution.

Headlight tuning

Such procedures are carried out not only to improve the aesthetic appearance, but also to improve the light and its range. Chevrolet Niva owners install additional LED lenses on the dimensions, rotating modules supplemented with LEDs. Some change the color, tone, texture and backing of the headlights, install chips, reflectors and replace the factory lamps with LED ones.

Calibration

Before starting measurements, the thickness gauge must be calibrated. For this purpose, special calibration plates are used, which are included in the kit. But the calibration gets lost due to temperature changes, dampness or a dead “battery”. Therefore, always check the calibration of the device before taking measurements. If you rent a thickness gauge, ask that it be calibrated in front of you, and also be given calibration plates for subsequent self-adjustment. Just in case, check how to do this.

Do not use a thickness gauge on a dirty car.

Do not use the thickness gauge on a dirty machine. Firstly, the device readings may be incorrect. Secondly, using a thickness gauge on a dirty body can damage both the device itself and the paintwork.

1. Don't use no-name or cheap thickness gauges.

2. Check in advance the acceptable paint thickness for a specific model. For attached parts this is usually 100–200 microns, for the body frame - 40–60 microns.

3. Select a device based on the inspection conditions: winter - you need a frost-resistant thickness gauge, the machine has aluminum parts - a device that works with non-ferrous metals.

4. Operate a calibrated instrument on a clean machine.

5. Measure the element at at least five different points perpendicular to the body.

6. Measure not only the hinged panels, but also the internal parts of the body.

Will the Niva have an automatic transmission?

At the moment, all gearboxes for any configuration are mechanical. The use of an automatic transmission is contrary to the conditions for using an SUV. In addition, this will require replacing the distribution unit. Therefore, most likely, an automatic transmission will not be used on the Chevrolet Niva. But AVTOVAZ promises us the second generation of Chevy Niva, which means that it can use an automatic transmission and even a new engine.

The prices presented here are temporary, the number of cars is limited. Therefore, they are relevant at the time of publication of the article. How the price of the Chevrolet Niva will change in the future is unknown.

Let's sum it up

If you would like to see the table, please use the data in this post. You can determine the painted areas without viewing the original information on the car. The thickness of the car's paintwork will be uneven; it is often possible to visually determine the places where painting was done. But sometimes this task will be quite difficult.

In the automotive market, every second car went through a painting procedure after purchase. And determining this fact will allow you to knock several hundred dollars off the cost of a used car. So preparing for a body survey can really pay off. If you do not find any signs of repair, then you can safely buy such a car and enjoy its operation.

What are the discounts based on?

Of course, the prices presented above are prices including discounts. The real price of a car is higher by approximately 100 thousand rubles on average.

Discounts are calculated based on the method of purchasing the vehicle. The buyer can count on a 10% price reduction when purchasing a car under the “First Car” or “Family Car” program. In addition, you can count on a large discount if you return your old car through the TRADE-IN program.

It is worth saying that a discount is a very individual thing. Almost no one buys a car naked. The sellers will definitely sell the buyer some extra extras. The same alarm system with installation can cost up to 25 thousand rubles. And this seriously affects the price of the car in general. But the seller takes his own individual approach to each buyer.

Depending on various promotions, they can put winter tires in the car for free, install an alarm or any other accessory if the seller deems it necessary to do so. If you put a little pressure on the manager, he can make a fairly significant discount, but everything will depend on your loyalty.
