Characteristics and dimensions of Lada Vesta car seats

Trunk Lada Vesta

The new model of the domestic automobile industry quickly gained popularity due to its modern appearance and respectable size. The dimensions of the Lada Vesta correspond to cars in the intermediate B+ segment, noticeably exceeding the body dimensions of other AvtoVAZ models. Due to the increase in external parameters, the internal dimensions of the machine have changed in a positive direction.

Comparison with other models

The overall dimensions of the Lada Vesta consist of several parameters. The length of the Lada Vesta is 441 cm, which allows it to have sufficient space inside the car. The width of the Lada Vesta is also greater than that of other VAZ models. Thanks to this, passengers and the driver do not feel pinched in the shoulders. To really evaluate the advantages of the new sedan, it is enough to compare it with other domestic cars produced today by the AvtoVAZ plant:

In almost all respects, the dimensions of the Lada Vesta exceed those of its closest “relatives”. Compared to foreign cars, the new product from VAZ also looks appropriate. Its most popular competitors cannot boast of spaciousness inside:

According to the table, it can be seen that the ground clearance of AvtoVAZ’s new product is greater than that of foreign competitors, which means that the domestic car is more adapted to different types of road surfaces, including light off-road conditions.

Ground clearance has three meanings:

• for an unloaded (empty) car;
• for a car with passengers;
• for the option with passengers and cargo in the trunk.

In the vehicle data, the clearance corresponding to the first case is most often indicated.

Interior dimensions

Dimensions of the Lada Vesta The solid size of the body of the Lada Vesta accommodates an equally spacious interior.
Five average-sized people can fit inside the car. The decent height of the Lada Vesta made it possible to increase the space between the seat cushions and the ceiling. Getting into the car is carried out at a comfortable level and there is no risk of hitting your head on the edges of the doorway. The distance from the rear wall of the front seat to the rear passenger's feet is more than 200 mm. A passenger up to 190 cm tall will not rest his knees on the back of the seat in front. The length of the front seat cushions and the rear sofa reaches 45 and 48 cm, respectively. The width of the cabin allows for comfortable seating of three passengers on the sofa in the back. These interior dimensions are close in value to the parameters of class C cars.

What will please you with the new news?

An important characteristic of the trunk is the layout of the space. Lada Vesta, whose trunk volume has increased significantly in recent years, provides the buyer with a design with a completely flat floor. There is space underneath for a spare tire. Thanks to the wide opening, loading large cargo is easy. It is worth considering cars with 3 body types:

The trunk of the future Lada Vesta station wagon especially stands out. It is expected to increase to 500 liters. The slope of the rear window above the trunk smoothly merges into the bumper. This expands the machine's load capacity.

Vesta Cross offers motorists a convenient luggage compartment with a curtain, smooth side walls and mounting rails. The protective finish on the threshold allows you to load heavy items without fear. The trunk volume is expected to be between 500-520 liters. You can appreciate its parameters from the presented photos.

The luggage compartment of the Lada Vesta hatchback, judging by the performance characteristics of its main competitors, will be equal to 400 liters. It is planned to include a lock with an electric drive in the package. The headlights are conveniently located on the opening luggage compartment lid.

Benefits of the luggage compartment

The trunk of the Lada Vesta is also not inferior in terms of useful space to its “classmates”. The shapes of the body parts of the rear of the car form a wide opening in the luggage compartment. Its main parameters:

• height – 57 cm;
• length – 96 cm;
• length with the backrests of the rear sofa folded – 1.65 m;
• width – 1.4 m;
• loading height – 71.5 cm;
• volume – 450 liters, if the seats are folded – 1100 liters.

The dimensions of the sedan meet all the requirements and needs of most people, since it can easily fit the whole family or a group of friends, as well as quite large luggage. With the rear seats folded down, you can transport long and large items in the car, and the car’s solid carrying capacity will allow you to save a lot on the delivery of non-standard and heavy cargo.

AvtoVAZ has not had such a model as the Lada Vesta for a long time, one might say never. The car is a technological breakthrough for VAZ. Vesta meets the requirements for modern cars. The car has a stylish and recognizable design. For any car, many parameters are important: engine, trunk size, wheel size, but the interior—where the driver is constantly located when driving the car—remains an important factor when choosing. Vesta is a beautiful car on the outside, but let's look inside and see what's there. Lada Vesta is made using new plastic materials. For the first time in a VAZ car there are several interior variations!

Recommendations for choosing cases

When choosing, you should take into account the actual operating conditions of the machine, temperature conditions, dust, and gas contamination.

An important factor is the size of the budget. This will determine the initial product category.

The best budget materials for everyday use of a car are jacquard, eco-leather, velor. To highlight the individuality of the interior - genuine leather and its subtypes. If you have any difficulties with the choice, seek advice from tuning studios, workshops, or store managers.

Inside the Lada Vesta car, materials and innovations were used that had not been used on a vase before. This made overall operation more pleasant for people; for the first time on a vase, the steering column could be adjusted for reach and installation angle. The steering wheel can be adjusted for reach by 50 mm and angle by 7 degrees. Vesta now has a multifunction steering wheel, which was not previously available on any VAZ model. The steering wheel has a three-spoke badge in the middle, it looks made with high quality and accuracy! The steering wheel has control buttons for the cruise control radio and telephone.

The instrument panel is interestingly implemented; it is grouped into three wells, all of which resembles a sports car. The quality of the panel material is good. The panel has few lamps, but despite this it looks informative. The torpedo is made of dark plastic. The center console is level with the panel, but protrudes forward a little and this is convenient for use; you don’t need to reach out to press a certain button. The console is divided into two parts, but depending on the configuration, it is located on top (in the expensive configuration there is a multimedia system with a 7-inch screen), and a branded radio in the cheaper basic version. On the second part of the panel there is a climate system separated by a row of buttons. The central tunnel is equipped with two cup holders.

The car has good visibility; the arches do not interfere with the view, as on the previous model 2170. Two airbags are built into the front panel (driver plus passenger). Regarding the interior trim, it looks high quality. The door cards, by the way, use new Soft Look plastic, are visually similar to leather. The plastic is embossed and hard to the touch. Despite the cheap materials, the interior looks quite strict and not childish, and if the car is in the Luxury configuration, the interior is equipped with additional chrome inserts. In general, Vesta’s interior looks a class higher than it is: ergonomic seats with good upholstery, all instruments and elements are arranged thoughtfully. When you get into the car, it’s pleasant to be in, you can see the road, and it’s easy to read the information on the speedometer. The seats have a high depth of adjustment, which allows tall people to feel comfortable behind the wheel. In previous models, there was limited space in the back, which was a big minus. There is ample knee room behind the driver; the distance from the rear sofa to the front seats is 226 mm. In general, it feels like the dimensions inside the car have been thought out. The seats are comfortable, the headrest follows the lines of the body and is friendly with the back of the head when standing in a traffic jam. The distance from the floor to the rear sofa is 345 mm, and from the floor to the top of the front seats is in the range from 276 to 310 mm. The distance from the floor to the steering wheel (since it is adjustable) is from 450 - 528 mm.

Other options

In addition to the above parameters, the following important ones can be noted, which Lada Vesta owners will probably need sooner or later:

• The steering column is adjustable for reach and installation angle.
• A 3-spoke steering wheel, convenient for long driving, with radio and cruise control buttons located on it (in some trim levels) is installed.
• The size of the steering wheel - its diameter on the Lada Vesta is 38-40 cm.

Wiper size

• driver's side brush size – 600 mm;
• The size of the brushes on the passenger side is 450 mm.

However, glass cleaning results can be improved by installing larger windshield wipers. Longer blades will allow you to increase the cleaning area of ​​the windshield.

For example, you can easily replace the driver’s brush with 610mm or the passenger’s with 480mm.

AvtoVAZ has provided 2 standard radios for installation on the Lada Vesta: a 4.3" monochrome display and a 7" color touch screen with a standard 1 DIN size - 178x50mm. However, the manufacturer took care of the possibility of installing a 2 DIN radio with a size of 178x100mm. To do this, you need to purchase a special transition frame.

The size of the opening of the radio frame is 173.5 x 98 mm, this must be taken into account when choosing the size of the radio. The depth of the receiver that can be pushed into the socket should not be more than 140mm, otherwise it will rest closely against the container located in the dashboard.

Dimensions of the Lada Vesta interior and comparison with competitors

As a basis for comparison, let's take the interior of the closest 4 competitors of our Vesta. The distance from the front seat (when the driver is sitting in it) to the ceiling is 1020 mm. If we take the competitors, then only Logan wins, it has 1030 mm, Solaris has 1015, Ravon Gentra 1015, Polo has a modest 1010 mm. The distance from the pedals to the knee and to the back of the front seat, depending on the height of the person, is in the range: 975-1175; Logan has a distance from 960 mm to 1190; Hyundai Solaris has from 970 to 1190; Ravon has numbers from 965-1145; Polo 955-1150. Interior height in the middle of the car: Lada Vesta – 1190 mm; Logan - 1210 mm; Solaris – 1200 mm; Ravon – 1170 mm; Polo – 1180 mm. The distance from the rear sofa (with a passenger) to the ceiling is 2180-925 mm; by the way, the Solaris is the same. Ravon has 960 mm, just like Logan; Polo-935 mm Distance from the back of the rear row to the front seat: Vesta from 610 to 850 mm; Logan from 645 to 855 mm; Solaris from 565 to 810 mm; Ravon from 660 to 890 mm; Polo from 632-880 mm. It is clear from the numbers that our car is not the tightest.

Let's sum it up

As we have found out, the overall dimensions of the popular domestic model LADA Vesta today are able to meet the needs of the most demanding customers. The car is equally suitable not only for family owners, but will also be a reliable work companion. It allows you to easily transport large luggage if you fold the back rows. Also, the carrying capacity will allow you to achieve some savings when transporting items. All these possibilities have become available due to the fact that the manufacturer has endowed this progressive model with dimensions that are respectable for its class.

Lada Vesta sedan , whose dimensions will please fans of compact dimensions, has quite a large interior space and a spacious trunk. The manufacturer positions the Lada Vesta as a “B” class car, but if we compare the dimensions with other cars, it turns out that this is a “C” class car. The rather impressive wheelbase (2635 mm) and body length (4410 mm) clearly exceed the dimensions of the main competitors Hyundai Solaris and Kia Rio. Not to mention some Lada Granta/Kalina.

Salon Lada Vesta SV cross

Since the cross body car came out at the end of '17, its interior is no different from the '18 car. Both the driver and the passenger feel comfortable sitting in the Cross. Many people are interested in the question of whether the Lada Vesta has 7 seats, the answer is: it doesn’t, there are no 7 seats in the interior of the crossover, there are only 5 of them.

Let's start with the Cross steering column; outwardly it is no different from the steering wheel of a Vesta sedan - all the same buttons for controlling the multimedia system. However, there are differences: in any configuration of the Vesta Cross, the steering wheel is covered with leather.

The central panel is no different from the sedan, everything is still harmoniously located in its place, which makes driving easier. There is a glove box mounted on the panel on the right; it has a decent volume. In the center of the cabin there is a central tunnel with cup holders and a gear knob. The handle of the box depends on what kind of box is on the car.

After the gearbox there is an armrest, convenient for the elbow of the right hand. The plastic in the cabin is the same everywhere, in the door cards and on the dashboard. Door cards have harmonious inserts that highlight the design. The doors have spacious containers in which you can put small things or a bottle of drink. Overall the door finish looks decent. Each door has its own electric lift, and the driver's window control unit with rear door locking and mirror adjustment.

The Vesta Cross floor is carpeted everywhere. It can be called a classic flooring material in many foreign cars and vases. The ceiling on Vesta Cross is light, but it is made with high quality; in case of contamination, the dirt can be easily washed off.

Body characteristics and vehicle dimensions

Lada Vesta, according to European standards, belongs to class B+ cars. It contains some units and spare parts from Renault. The Lada Vesta is often compared to the Priora, but this is not entirely correct, since the dimensions of the Vesta are much larger, but the weight remains the same.

The sedan car is 4410 millimeters in length. Moreover, its width is 1764 millimeters, and its height is 1497.

Lada Vesta has an impressive distance between the wheel axles - 2635 mm. This significantly affects the comfort of the car while driving. Passengers do not feel bumps and travel with maximum comfort. The good ground clearance of the Lada Vesta allows this car to overcome difficult sections of the highway with a high degree of cross-country ability, even when heavily loaded.

The large capacity of the luggage compartment allows you to transport all the necessary things in your personal car. The interior of the Lada Vesta is very spacious, especially compared to previous models. In this sense, AVTOVAZ also made a mini-revolution. In addition to good spaciousness, the interior is quite comfortable and can be transformed.

Content:

However, buyers of cars of this class pay attention not only to visual appeal, but also to practicality and functionality, which are largely determined by the dimensions of the vehicle. In this regard, Vesta is also at its best, since it surpasses in basic parameters not only domestic models, but also most competitors in its class.

Body Specifications

More about the body

The weight of the Lada Vesta, despite the increase in body dimensions, remained the same as that of the Priora.

The body itself is made of steel, without the addition of aluminum or other materials, since the manufacturer did not set a goal to reduce the weight of the car. Efforts have been made to create maximum safety for the Lada Vesta, eliminating unwanted vibrations and noise.

The body turned out to be more rigid and safer, thanks to new design technologies and the targeted use of high-strength alloys. Such innovations guarantee protection against jamming and distortion of doors and improved handling. The lighter weight was justifiably sacrificed to the multiple increase in the safety level of the Lada Vesta.

More about the design and interior

Lada Vesta has a good interior, which is decorated with soft plastic. Despite this property, the plastic is quite durable. The interior of the car is upholstered in fabric and black leather. Added silver inserts. The panel is decorated with two backlight colors. It contains the necessary sensors: speedometer, tachometer, fuel level and engine temperature. The interior of the “luxury” version of the Lada is made at the level of higher-class European cars, which is a pleasant surprise.

Lada Vesta takes the Russian auto industry to a new level. This could not but affect the features of the car body, which allows Lada to compete for leadership in the market with foreign competitors. The car has respectable dimensions and relatively light weight. This is complemented by good aerodynamics and a high level of passenger safety.

Classification by material

• genuine leather: durable material, pleasant to the touch, but expensive;
• artificial leather: practical material, does not require careful care or maintenance. Of course, it is visually inferior to natural leather, but in return it offers a lower price, which “bribes” the owners;

• eco-leather: material made using modern technology. Eco means no polyvinyl chloride in the composition.

It allows air to pass through well, but is able to retain moisture. Eco-leather does not deteriorate, is adaptive to changes in temperature conditions, odorless, pleasant to the touch;

• jacquard: the final product of compatibility between genuine leather and substitutes. All the advantages are those of the components, but the disadvantages are the high price;

• velor: the ideal solution is a balance between genuine leather and stock upholstery.

Advantages: strength, long service life. Disadvantage: looks old-fashioned for some;

• polyester (synthetics): durability, low maintenance - advantages. Poor ventilation is a disadvantage;
• plush: the material wears out quickly and is impractical;
• fur: warms the driver and passengers well in winter. Visually gives the interior luxury;
• combined type: combination of several materials in one composition.
