Lada Vesta SV Cross 2022 and 2022 salon
The interior of the 2022 and 2022 Vesta SV Cross is no different, since the car was released only at the end of 2022 and has not yet undergone any changes in 2018. So, let's look at the interior of the Lada Vesta SV Cross.
Car front panel
One of the most important elements on the front panel is the steering wheel. This is the so-called multifunctional steering wheel with the ability to control the multimedia system. There is a driver airbag in the steering wheel. In any configuration you will receive a leather-trimmed steering wheel.
Under the steering wheel there are paddle switches that control the car's windshield wipers and lights.
One of the most important parts of the Lada Vesta SV Cross interior is the central panel. Yes, it is made of hard plastic, like its classmates - Kia Rio and Hyundai Solaris. But she doesn’t cause any disgust. Everything is done harmoniously and thoughtfully. The multimedia system display, air conditioning control, and other control keys are conveniently located in the center.
In front of the driver’s eyes is a well-readable instrument panel - speedometer, tachometer, fuel level and temperature gauges. All devices fit well into deep wells and look great at any time of the day.
The passenger sees only the glove box in front of him - the glove compartment, by the way, is very spacious.
In the center of the Lada Vesta SV Cross cabin there is a tunnel with cup holders, a gearbox control knob and an armrest. Depending on the installed gearbox, the handle will have a different appearance. If the car is equipped with a manual transmission, the gearshift knob will look like this:
... if a robot is installed in the car, then you will have to control the box modes with this handle:
Next, traditionally, are the handbrake and armrest, which are quite roomy.
Door trims
The door trims are made of the same plastic as the front panel, but additionally have inserts that fit seamlessly into the rest of the interior design. Door trims combine not only stylish design, but also thoughtful ergonomics. You can easily put a water bottle or other small items in the door. There are ESP buttons on all doors, and on the driver’s side there is a control unit for all ESPs, mirror adjustment, door and lift locking.
Seats, floor, ceiling
floor of the Lada Vesta SV Cross is a classic carpet, like on 80% of budget foreign cars. Not very durable, but it serves its purpose, and nothing more is required from it. Mats - rubber or textile - protect the carpet from moisture and dirt.
Seats. Here's a little more detail. In the Lada Vesta SV Cross station wagon, the most thoughtful detail is the seats. They are the only ones with no questions in terms of comfort and design. Yes, it is comfortable to sit on such chairs. You can travel long distances and not worry about back and lower back pain. Externally, there is also nothing to blame the designers for. The seats look fresh and modern.
The ceiling in the Lada Vesta interior has a normal high-quality finish. Yes, it is light, but with proper care it will not lose its appearance for a very long time. And with timely washing, you can get rid of dirt in no time.
Chassis and ground clearance
The Russian car is the leader in terms of ground clearance. Its ground clearance is 177 mm, the American’s is 157 mm. This means that the Lada is more adapted for use on Russian roads than a foreign car.
The suspension of the Russian car is no different from other models of the manufacturer. The MacPherson system is installed at the front: shock absorber struts, horizontal arms in the shape of a triangle, horizontal stability stabilizer, at the rear - semi-independent: vertical arms connected by a horizontal jumper, telescopic shock absorbers, coil springs. The brake system is disc at the front, drum at the rear.
The front suspension of the American consists of shock-absorbing struts and coil springs, horizontal and vertical arms, and a horizontal stabilizer.
The Chevrolet Cruze and Lada are front-wheel drive. An American's car tire size is 16, a Russian's is 15, a station wagon or crossover's is 16.
Lada Vesta SV Cross interior color
There are three interior design options for the Lada Vesta SV Cross - in bright orange or blue and calmer colors. The first two options are included in the additional options package. By ordering this addition, you will receive a bright orange insert around the entire perimeter of the interior on the front panel and doors of the car, as well as a combined seat trim. The same thing awaits you when ordering blue. The remaining interior colors of the Lada Vesta SV Cross are available in the basic version and match absolutely any body color.
In this article we will not talk about the trunk of the Lada Vesta SV Cross, since we have already discussed it in detail in one of our articles. You can find all the information on our website yourself.
Comparison of bodies and wheelbases

An American car has good directional stability. Its curb weight is 1280 kg, while that of its opponent is 1155 kg. The total weight of a foreigner is 1785 kg, of our compatriot - 1625 kg.
Box
The AvtoVAZ car is equipped with a five-speed manual gearbox. The Chevrolet Cruze is equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission.
In general, it is worth noting the similarity of the two cars in many respects. It is noteworthy that Vesta is not only not inferior to the American, but in many ways superior to him. For those who are planning to purchase personal transport for the purpose of moving around the city, it is recommended to choose Vesta. High ground clearance, more economical fuel consumption, and a spacious trunk make it suitable for practical people who want comfort. For those who want a more powerful, fast, maneuverable car, this is the Chevrolet Cruze.

Exterior of Lada Vesta SW Cross 2022
The new proposal looks quite attractive:
- The front part is made in the style of an X-ray crossover. It is characterized by a notch that resembles a letter.
- The head optics are made using modern technologies. An example is a combination of diode light sources and various lenses. The lanterns are small in size and are located in small recesses.
- We also found a place for fog lights. They are small in size and placed in special niches.
- The front part is also characterized by the presence of a chrome trim, which makes the car more aggressive and attractive.
- There are small notches on the sides, which are also made in the X-ray style. However, they are made in a slightly different style.
- The body has plastic protection, which stands out clearly against the general background. It has quite massive dimensions.
- The rear part of the body looks ambiguous. It has small lights, as well as a recess on the luggage lid to accommodate a license plate.
- The roof of the car is lowered slightly towards the rear, due to which the degree of aerodynamics increases and the car acquires a sporty style.
- The rear bumper has integrated exhaust pipes.
- There is also a stylish spoiler with a built-in stop repeater.
The body can be painted in various colors. The car looks quite attractive and modern; the domestic manufacturer was able to achieve good results.
Transformation of the luggage compartment
“Organizer on wheels” is the best compliment for a car of this class. A double trunk floor, many niches and fasteners for a wide variety of cargo, a folding seat back - every detail of the LADA Vesta SW Cross speaks of the practicality of a family car. The volume of the luggage compartment is 480 liters (up to the curtain shelf), and with the second row seats folded - 825 liters (up to the window sill line).
Competitors
The Russian-made model in question has a number of competing cars that are popular among Russian motorists. Competitors include the following models:
These vehicles are characterized by good technical data and operational parameters. They have a fairly comfortable interior and a number of useful options. Despite all the advantages of these vehicles, the Lada Vesta Cross has a good chance of occupying its niche in a short period of time and winning over market share from its competitors.
Interior
The interior space of the new Russian-made product can please true connoisseurs of domestic cars. The chairs are very comfortable, and they have a large number of different adjustments that are designed to ensure a comfortable stay for people. In addition, there are a number of useful elements:
- steering column reach adjustment;

- original interior lighting, which is bright enough and does not have a harmful effect on vision;
- The seats are heated quite quickly.
The interior has its own highlight: bright orange inserts that make the interior space more attractive and original. If a potential buyer is a fan of muted colors, then he can choose the option with gray inserts.
