Technical characteristics of Lada Kalina Hatchback: a small but remote city car

The technical characteristics of the Lada Kalina Hatchback make the car very popular in the domestic market. The car is equipped with two types of engines: an eight-valve 1.6 liter and a sixteen-valve 1.4 liter. Both engines comply with Euro-3 standards and are equipped with electronic ignition control and fuel injection systems. Such power units not only maintain high vehicle dynamics with the lowest fuel consumption, but also satisfy the most stringent requirements in terms of toxicity.

In terms of safety, the Lada Kalina Hatchback is not much inferior to foreign cars: regardless of the configuration, the car has an excellent power capsule, it is smaller than the Lada 1118, more maneuverable and much better adapted to city driving and traffic.

In our table we have collected all the information about Kalina Hatchback, the characteristics of which you can study. In particular, after looking at the data, you will find out that the car is available in three trim levels: “Normal”, “Standard” and “Lux”. The basic package includes electric power steering, electric locks on all doors and electric windows in the front doors. For the convenience of owners, the automaker installed a central locking system with a remote control function and an anti-theft alarm system on the Hatchback. This set of options is typical for most foreign cars, and in some it is even somewhat narrower. That is why Kalina Hatchback is in such high demand in our country.

Also, reviews from the owners of Kalina Hatchback, located in a separate section on our website, will probably be interesting.

The disadvantages of the car include the lack of driver and front passenger airbags, fog lights and belts with pretensioners: all this is available only in the “luxury” version. In addition, many drivers complain that the car’s handling is not very good, especially at high speeds. But the Hatchback has something that previous Kalina models did not have: relatively soft plastic in the interior, no gaps in the body and interior panels, a climate system and ABS. Galvanizing the body allows you to effectively combat corrosion; in any case, there are no negative reviews about this from owners on the Internet.

Bottom line

Lada Kalina is a pretty good car. It has a relatively light weight and acceptable dimensions. Fuel consumption, given the characteristics of an engine with 16 valves, is very low, which is good news. Relatively high ground clearance allows you to carry a fairly heavy load, about 400 kg. The dimensions of the wheelbase have a great effect on the stability of the car at speed. In a word, this VAZ model is worthy of competition to this day, even though it was released back in 2004.

Modifications of Lada Kalina 1119

The hatchback model was produced in our country from 2006 to 2013 without any changes.

Main characteristics of the car

The elegant Kalina
VAZ 1119 is the first generation of the model, which was produced from 2006 to 2022. The trunk volume of the car is 235 liters. Due to the high opening and the ability to quickly fold the rear seat, the Kalina VAZ 11193 is capable of transporting large loads.

The hatchback is available in 3 options.

1. Standard.
2. Norm.
3. Luxury

The advantages of the top and middle versions include the presence of ABS, front airbags and an air conditioning system with a corresponding split system. The “Lux” package of Lada Kalina 111930 provides improved upholstery of the interior and door panels. The car interior is spacious and comfortable. If necessary, its tuning is possible.

The characteristics of lighting technology and the modern appearance of the VAZ 1119 contribute to an increase in demand for this model. You can buy it through official VAZ dealers. The catalog will familiarize everyone in detail with the technical capabilities of the car, body colors and other details that need to be taken into account when purchasing a vehicle.

Prices for each model are calculated individually. Car owners of Lada Kalina 1119 leave positive reviews about their vehicle. This economical car is perfect for both city travel and long-distance travel.

Dimensions value

The Kalina family is small but friendly. Some are a little bigger, some are a little smaller, but together they can make it to the parade. The body of the Lada Kalina is made in several modern modifications: sedan, hatchback, station wagon, cross and sport. Their overall dimensions do not vary much.

The width and wheelbase are the same for all, as it should be for related models. But the length, height and ground clearance are different. Accordingly, the volumes and masses are different. The history of Lada models has seen long stagnation and a period of failure. In 2004, the release of the first Kalina from the assembly line ushered in a new era. Since then, new items appear almost every season, and the ranks of owners of the most popular car in Russia are growing from year to year.

The geometric dimensions of the body are important, but no less interesting is the volume of the trunk. All Kalina models are designed to allow the rear seats to be folded forward and increase luggage compartment space. The most voluminous trunks are for the sedan, station wagon and cross: 355/670 liters. “Hatchback” and “sport” are more modest - 240/550 hp. It’s also not bad, as many city car owners will agree with.

In the ranks of Kalina there is another model - Lada Kalina City (Oka-3), made on the VAZ-1117 platform. It appeared in 2005 and for some time was considered a replacement for the Oka small car, but this assumption is incorrect. It has almost the same dimensions, height and width as other Kalinas, only the length is 3650 mm. The result was a version of the Kalina hatchback, shortened by 20 cm and correspondingly lighter in weight - 980 kg. Next to the miniature Oka it looks incomparably larger. "Kalina City" is not widely used, but it can still be found on Russian roads.

There is another dimensional indicator that is rarely interested in until they get stuck in a rut. At this point, some people discover the fact that the distance between the front wheels is different from the distance between the rear. This parameter is called: front and rear wheel track. For the “sedan” and “hatchback” with “station wagon” - 1430/1414 mm, for the “sport” - 1431/1432 mm and for the “cross” - 1430/1418 mm.

The difference in millimeters may not be noticeable to the eye, but it is easy to feel when a few millimeters are not enough to get out of an icy rut on a winter road. The track size turned out to be wrong.

Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of Lada Kalina 1119

In the first years, the car body resists corrosion well, but then it slowly gives in. Nowadays it is difficult to find Kalina on the secondary market without rust in the arches or along the edges of the doors.

For its time, the interior design looked quite interesting, but due to the low quality of materials and domestic assembly, creaks are annoying from the first kilometers.

In the rich configurations of this model, the electrician throws up a lot of problems. Often the central locking, power windows or the entire panel fails.

The 1.6-liter 8-valve engine with the VAZ 11183 index is the weakest engine in the line. The sensors and thermostat here have a low service life, and oil leaks often occur. But many owners love it because when the belt breaks, it usually does not bend the valve.

The 1.4-liter 16-valve engine with the VAZ index 11194 has always been installed only on Kalina. It has the same problems, plus it often consumes oil and bends the valve when the belt breaks.

The 1.6-liter 16-valve engine with the VAZ 21126 index is the newest, most powerful and reliable. Failures in the ignition system or sensors do occur here, but less frequently than with other internal combustion engines. The danger for him is the wedge of the pump with a broken timing belt, the valve bends 100%.

The manual transmission of the VAZ 1118 is famous for its unclear shifts, howling at certain speeds, the modest life of the synchronizers, and also the sudden loss of reverse gear.

In the last year of production, a manual VAZ 2181 with a cable control drive was installed. This box is also a little noisy, but it is definitely much more pleasant to use.

A simple and cheap suspension lasts a long time, and if it breaks, it won’t ruin the owner. Up to 100,000 km, wheel bearings, shock absorbers or ball bearings are most often replaced.

If you install normal pads instead of standard ones, then there will be no complaints about the brakes. The steering rack often knocks already at 50,000 km and the electric power steering fails.

A number of improvements to Kalina

Machine dimensions

The manufacturer has made every effort to improve the Lada Kalina. There are many improvements in the car.

1. New internal combustion engines: 8-valve, 16-valve. They have lightweight parts, which increases engine power.
2. The cable-driven gearbox makes it easy to change gears and simplifies the transmission structure.
3. Both suspensions are from Granta, it is modernized and of better quality.
4. Considerable attention has been paid to noise insulation, so the noise effect has decreased both inside and outside the cabin.
5. The quality of components has increased significantly; new imported parts have begun to be used, including from Germany - these are new window regulators, generators, and cooling system elements.
6. The interior ventilation and heating system has been improved through the use of imported spare parts for the stove and fan. The operation of these units has become silent.
7. Improved handling quality and ease of use of the machine are ensured thanks to a short steering rack with a speed of 3.1.
8. Availability of ABS and ESP in the first option “Normal”, in the second - on “Lux” models.

The car has a sporty design

The design of the Lada Kalina hatchback is ideal for driving in urban environments. This is an ordinary car for an ordinary buyer. Overall dimensions of the machine: length - 3900 mm, width - 1700 mm.

The ride quality justifies the price, the car accelerates quickly and effortlessly. This is a decent level for the Kalina hatchback, which can be put on a par with the most affordable foreign cars.

Specifications

The technical characteristics of the VAZ 11193 engine are not much different from its predecessor 1118. In fact, the engines can be called identical, but differences still exist. So, let's look at the technical characteristics of the power unit.

The VAZ 11193 engine has become a logical continuation for the Kalina family, and it is also installed on the 10th generation of Lada vehicles. As you can see, the engine is quite powerful and is enough for such a small car as Kalina. If we talk about 10th generation cars, then it is quite weak.
