Interior

The new product boasts decent quality interior decorating and finishing materials, ergonomic layout of instrumentation and on-board electronics. Fabric and leatherette interior trim is available in several tones and colors. The interior is complemented by bright and expressive decorative accents.

The front panel includes a panel with classic dial indicators for speed and revolutions, a computer display and a set of optical indicators.
In the new generation, the 2021 Lada Granta hatchback is characterized by a block layout of the console, consisting of a pair of air deflectors, a two-channel audio system setup panel and a remote control with three adjustable washers for the standard air conditioner.
The budget price level is visible in the configuration of the tunnel, which is responsible for switching the manual transmission, activating a few organizers and the handbrake. The tunnel structure ends with a soft armrest.

The second row sofa with folding armrest can accommodate three adult passengers. The high profile of the tunnel interferes with the comfortable placement of the third rider. The first-row seats with lateral support elements feature several mechanical adjustment points and a heating circuit.

The modest capacity of the 240-liter luggage compartment is partly compensated by the possibility of increasing it to 550 liters due to a simplified rear seat rearrangement.

Clearance and its purpose

Ground clearance is the distance between the road surface and the lowest point of the car located on its body part. It is called ground clearance. The amount of such clearance depends on the car model and its purpose. In addition, this indicator is influenced by the body manufacturing option. Currently, there are several main body types of passenger cars:

sedan;
station wagon;
hatchback;
crossover;
SUV.

If for a sedan, station wagon and hatchback this distance varies in a small range from 150 to 170 mm, which allows them to be used mainly in city conditions, then crossovers and SUVs have significantly greater ground clearance. This quality allows them to be used on roads with large holes, bumps and ditches. And with all-wheel drive, SUVs can overcome any off-road conditions.

Depending on the ground clearance, the driving style is selected

The driving style used by the driver should also depend on the ground clearance of the car. If the ground clearance is large, you need to accelerate the car very carefully, especially on winding sections of the highway. If you ignore this recommendation, you may drop the car on its side when performing the maneuver.

With a low clearance, the car handles well at high speeds and behaves predictably. This reduces the risk of an accident. In addition, modern vehicles have good aerodynamic properties. Therefore, with a large increase in speed, their body is pressed more tightly to the ground, which reduces ground clearance. This characteristic is inherent in sedans and hatchbacks.
