LADA Kalina is a line of domestic front-wheel drive small class cars, which are based on the reliable Gamma platform. The interest, caused in 2004 by the appearance on the market of a car with the original name "Kalina", is not accidental, because it was one of the first domestic models, in the exterior and interior of which the so-called "European notes" appeared.

First generation Kalina has been assembled since November 2004, although the model has been developed since 1993 and the first prototypes of the car in different body versions were first presented in Moscow long before the start of mass production:

• the hatchback was shown in 1999;
• sedan - in 2000;
• station wagon - in 2001.

Lada in a radically new design sold very well, which prompted the company to modernize the model. In 2007, a 1.6-liter four-cylinder power unit was replaced by a more powerful 1.4-liter 16-valve, and the car's braking system received an ABS module.

But, not everything went so smoothly. The owners' opinion about the quality and functionality of the car was mixed. The precedents with the recall of a series of cars, in which serious defects in the steering and engine mounts were revealed, also played not in Kalina's favor.

But, in spite of everything, the car was very popular, and in 2009 it even took the honorable 4th place in the number of sold models among all domestic cars.

Second generation Wedges were introduced in 2012. The updated car retained its recognizable design, but received a number of significant technical improvements, some of which were borrowed from Grants.

The owners of the new model noted the following advantages of Lada Kalina 2:

• improved acceleration dynamics;
• Jatco automatic transmission (optional);
• ABS + BAS systems, as well as ESP and TCS;
• set of airbags;
• climate control;
• navigation and multimedia systems;
• a set of options that ensure driving comfort and safety.

The second generation model turned out to be quite successful, approaching the European ideal, and demonstrating that an inexpensive domestic car can be stylish, comfortable and dynamic. It is quite natural that everyone was looking forward to what the third generation of Kalina would be like.

New models Lada Kalina

A full-fledged third generation the car Lada Kalina was not released until 2018-2019, although they offered two rather interesting versions:

• Lada Kalina Cros with an off-road claim;
• "Charged" sports Kalina NFR.

Lada Kalina Cros

Although the manufacturer positioned the novelty as an "off-road version", myths about the off-road qualities of the Cross model were dispelled with the release of the first car. The clearance increased by 2.3, the modified suspension, the increased diameter of the rims and the new body kit did not make a crossover from a city car, let alone an SUV.

The new Kalina Cross, which will continue to be popular in 2019, has a stylish exterior. Although the close relationship of the model with the base station wagon of the 2nd generation remained obvious, the designers were able to give the car dynamism, massiveness and a sporty touch.

The interior did not receive significant improvements, except that the bright inserts and two-tone upholstery of the seats in the body color became the stylish highlight of the car.

Of the main improvements, it is worth noting:

• improved sound insulation;
• extended list of options;
• front suspension from MacPherson;
• transmission protection (another hint of the off-road model);
• availability of a version with an automatic transmission.

The line of power units remains the same:

Actually, the model's problems remained the same:

• lack of space for second-row passengers;
• modest for a station wagon (and even more so a crossover) trunk of 355 liters;
• deplorable safety indicators (1 star versus 2 for the Granta model).

Lada Kalina NFR

Another attempt to create another reincarnation of the model with the assignment of a cardinal new image to the city car. Equipped with an uprated 1.6 liter 140 horsepower 16-valve, the model was supposed to become the base for the production of racing cars.

Even if you try to find Kalina NFR in 2019, you will find out that the model was produced only in a luxury configuration, for which the manufacturer did not skimp on artificial leather upholstery, as many as 2 airbags, heated front seats and a package of standard electronic options to assist the driver.

The price of the sports (and according to the manufacturer's promise, even of the racing) Kalina, which received enviable technical characteristics in the cabin, both for the brethren, started at 850,000 rubles.

LADA Kalina in 2019

Since 2004, AvtoVAZ has been producing compact five-seater cars of the Kalina family. Currently, since 2013, the second generation of small cars has been produced in the following modifications:

• hatchback;
• station wagon;
• cross;
• sport.

Until 2011, a sedan version of the car was produced, but due to low demand, the production was discontinued.

The main advantages of the lineup are:

1. Affordable cost.
2. Good maintainability.
3. Adaptability to work in domestic conditions.
4. Profitability.
5. Overall reliability.
6. Several options for power units.

Volzhsky Automobile Plant has recently been increasing the production of so-called cross-versions of its cars and new crossovers, which are popular with domestic buyers. Therefore, the development and release of a new version of the modification "Lada Kalina Cross" in 2019 is a continuation in the development of this direction.

Appearance

The photos and videos about the restyled version of Kalina Cross presented by a number of publications clearly show that the changes made in appearance are not significant, but they made it possible to form the design of the classic crossover. This result was achieved using the following solutions:

• embossed hood;
• large protective panels in the front and rear of the vehicle;
• increased lower air intake;
• massive bumpers;
• two-lens headlights with a line of running lights;
• exterior aerodynamic mirrors;
• widened wheel arches with protective inserts;
• top rails;
• corporate design of the radiator grill;
• vertical rear combined lights;
• straight lines frontal stamping.

The improved cross-country ability of a compact runabout is indicated by:

• increased ground clearance;
• tall 15-inch wheels;
• lower protective body kit.

The updated design, together with the modified suspension and steering settings, as well as the body geometry, make it possible to confidently attribute the 2019 Lada Kalina Cross to the compact (SUV) crossover segment.

Interior

The changes in the car interior have improved the ergonomic parameters, as well as given additional comfort. The obtained results were achieved with the help of:

• a new device for the front seats, providing a higher seating position and, as a result, better visibility for the driver, as well as adding legroom for the rear passengers;
• increased dimensions of the anti-glare visor of the instrument panel;
• the use of additional special noise-absorbing inserts;
• modified shape of air conditioning equipment deflectors, increasing its efficiency;
• an updated design of a number of control systems of the car, keys and switches;
• increasing the number of niches, pockets and compartments for storing things.

More resistant to fading and wear, fabric materials have been used in the decoration, a number of light metal inserts have been added. As an option, it is possible to design the interior in several colors, which will allow you to choose an individual interior design.

The performed transformations allowed to form a high-quality interior for a passenger car, which belongs to the budget class.

Technical parameters and equipment

Kalina Cross 2019 has the following dimensions and dimensions:

• wheelbase - 2.48 m;

Look video about Lada Kalina 2019:

Lada Kalina 1118 is a kind of cult car. At the time of its release, which fell on the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st millennia, it was one of the most popular. It was sold not only in Russia, but also in neighboring countries. It gained its popularity due to its good technical characteristics and low cost. Like any domestic car, this model is maximally focused on Russian roads. Of course, in comparison with modern cars, VAZ "Kalina 1118" (characteristics will be indicated later) is inferior in many respects. However, this is not surprising, since the model was developed more than 10 years ago.

Briefly about the main

This model was developed by the domestic automobile company AvtoVAZ. For the first time, they thought about its release back in 1993. The prototype was presented 7 years later. It was he who was launched into mass production. The working index of the first generation Lada Kalina is VAZ-1118. The mass production of this model began in 2004. Unfortunately, it is difficult to call it ultramodern. Many drivers report that the design elements used are reminiscent of the 90s. On the road, however, it looks pretty decent. Due to its size, it is quite convenient to move around the city on it. The last Kalina car of the first generation left the assembly line in 2011. Its production was completely discontinued, as the company began to assemble a new budget car Lada Granta.

"Kalina 1118": description and dimensions

VAZ-1118 was produced in the back of a four-door car, equipped with a front-wheel drive platform. MacPherson strut struts. A stabilizer is assumed on the front and rear axles. The steering mechanism in the first generation model is equipped with a power steering. The brake system is of two types: on the front wheels - disc, on the rear - drum.

Has standard sizes for a sedan. According to the European classification, the model belongs to class B. Clearance is quite acceptable. It is 165 mm. It is worth noting that many SUVs have the same ride height. The length of the car is slightly more than 4 m, the width of 1.7 m made it possible to equip a fairly roomy and spacious interior. The height in this model is 1.5 m.The curb weight reaches almost 1.1 tons, and the full weight does not exceed 1.56 tons.

Exterior

Lada Kalina 1118 is equipped with not very modern design elements. Currently, its exterior looks somewhat outdated. At first glance, you can highlight the disproportionate forms. This made it possible to give it a certain uniqueness. The hood is small, located at an acute angle to the windshield. The headlights have an irregular rectangular shape: the side that is located near the radiator grill, already opposite, facing the side fender. The bumper has streamlined lines; in the luxury configuration, fog lamps are located in the lower part. narrow, in the middle is the AvtoVAZ logo. If we look at the headlights and the bonnet in the general concept, then you can notice a certain aggressiveness in appearance. The wheel arches are inflated. The roof is almost flat. The sill line is straight. The doors and windows are large. As for the rear, there are no particularly prominent elements here. Small inflated bumper. Headlights are located above it on the sides. Their shape resembles a triangle, but with smooth lateral lines. They are made in white and red colors. The luggage compartment door is very large. In the lower part there is a place for fixing a license plate. Above it, the company logo flaunts in the middle, and the model name and engine type are written on the sides.

Interior

VAZ "Kalina 1118", the photo of the salon can be seen below, will not surprise you with its interior decoration. The dashboard has a very simple design. However, it is quite informative. The base model has air vents, a heating system and a radio compartment in the center console. For the upholstery of the passenger compartment, the manufacturer used plastic of a rather low quality. The joints are very noticeable. Rattling and squeaking can be heard while driving.

The front seats are wide and have a flat profile. A significant plus is the range of adjustments. Thanks to them, you can find the optimal position even for people with a two-meter height. The back row seat is also spacious. Two adults and one child will feel you ideally. There is a lot of free space in the legs. It is worth noting that even very tall people will not rest their heads on the roof.

The luggage compartment has a capacity of 400 liters. The opening is wide enough, the depth is large. The only thing that can overshadow the impression is the strongly protruding wheel arches inward. When transporting bulky goods, the rear seat can be folded down, but the boot area will not be level.

Technical equipment

Having got acquainted with the design, let's consider the inner filling of the Kalina 1118 model. Technical characteristics for today are quite acceptable. The car is equipped with three types of engines. They all run on gasoline and are paired with a five-speed manual transmission.

Advantages

What are the advantages of the Kalina 1118 model? This list was compiled according to the opinions of the car owners. So, the first thing they highlight is good interior capacity. Drivers and passengers do not feel cramped or uncomfortable. The suspension, which the car is equipped with, has a high level of energy intensity. Also, a significant advantage of this model is its low cost. It is thanks to this criterion that the car has become quite popular. It is also worth noting that the repair of the first generation Kalina is inexpensive. Due to the fact that the car is domestic, it is very easy to find spare parts. They are sold in any service center for a low price.

disadvantages

Unfortunately, there are many shortcomings in the VAZ Kalina 1118 model. The most significant is the low level of security. During testing, it was found that already at a speed of just over 60 km / h, the front passenger and the driver are in an increased risk zone. It is also worth noting that they break down already in the first year of operation. Many drivers note that the weak points are shock absorbers, ignition coil, stabilizer struts.

Options and prices

For the Kalina 1118 model, the manufacturer has provided three configurations.

• "Standard" - the basic version, includes a standard heating system, a 6-valve power unit with a capacity of 81 liters. with. and other factory equipment.
• "Norm". This configuration is represented by a 16-valve power unit with a thrust of 89 liters. with. There is a headlight range control, power windows for the front doors, and the rest of the equipment does not differ from the basic one.
• "Lux" is the most top-end equipment. A unit capable of delivering 183 km / h is installed on the car. Its capacity is 98 liters. with. Equipped with fog lamps, airbags, anti-lock braking system ABS, central locking, leather-trimmed seats and more.

Currently, the model can only be purchased on the secondary market. Depending on the equipment and technical condition, the cost can vary from 140 thousand to 270 thousand rubles.

Russian auto giant AvtoVAZ has revealed details about the new generation of one of its most popular models, Lada Kalina. The novelty will receive 3 options for power units. Sales of the model will start in June and will start with the top versions. Budget modifications will appear on the market later.

As the company says, all versions of the new Kalina will receive a driver's airbag. Previously, this option was only available in expensive modifications. All cars, starting with the "norm" trim level, will be equipped with an ABS system with emergency braking assistance. Certain modifications will receive the ESC stability control system from Bosch.

The new generation of Kalina will receive three new powertrain options. The first is an 8-valve 1.6-liter engine with 87 hp. with a lightweight ShPG in combination with a manual transmission with a cable drive. According to the company, this motor was not previously installed on cars of this family. In the new generation, it will be available for all new "standard" trim levels and part of the "norm" trim levels.

The second engine is a 16-valve 1.6-liter unit with 98 hp, which is mated to an automatic transmission. And the third is an upgraded 16-valve 1.6-liter engine with 106 hp. with a modernized intake system and "mechanics" with a cable drive. This engine has increased not only power (from 98 to 106 hp), but also torque (from 145 to 148 Nm). Also, the motor has become more "responsive" in the range from 1000 to 2500 rpm.

"The new engine is more" elastic "and traction, more adapted to urban mode. The biggest difference is the new intake system. We have added a new resonance volume: special damper systems turn it on and off at certain modes. In fact, this is an inertial boost system. In different modes, different resonant frequencies work, providing a large additional charge of the cylinders. The controller received new calibrations. As a result of the modernization of the power unit, about 2 dozen original parts appeared, including the absolute pressure sensor, which was used instead of the mass air flow sensor, "- commented Oleg Khramkov, head of the design and development department of the power unit of AvtoVAZ.

In the future, other combinations of motor and transmission are also possible. However, as the manufacturer notes, the new Kalina will not receive 8-valve engines with a heavy ShPG and 16-valve engines with a volume of 1.4 liters, as well as a manual gearbox with a traction drive.

In addition to new engines and transmissions, "Kalina" received a new chassis: an increased caster, a rear beam with negative camber, a "short" steering rack with a gear ratio of 3.1. This will improve handling, stability and ride comfort.

Also, shock absorbers, springs, silent blocks and anti-roll bars with new characteristics, developed by specialists from the Volzhsky Automobile Plant and Renault, were used. It is also reported that complex changes will be made to the suspension of the car during the current year.

The steering has also been changed. Thanks to the stiffer fastening of the steering rack, its information content is increased. The stiffness of the steering system is increased by 25%, while the vibration level at the steering wheel is unchanged.

Serial production of the novelty is scheduled for May this year. Sales should start in June. At the same time, the top-end versions of the model will be the first to appear in car dealerships. "As the project develops, the family will be supplemented with the" norm "and" standard "options, and the" luxury "will have new additional options," the company notes, adding that official prices for the model will be announced before the start of sales.

The history of the Lada Kalina family cars began in 1993, it was then that the specialists of AvtoVAZ began to design a new car, unified with the Samara and Dozens platforms, however, the projected cars received the name Kalina only in 1998. The prototypes of the family were demonstrated in the following order: in 1999 - a hatchback, in 2000 - a sedan and in 2001 - a station wagon.

The first generation of cars Lada "Kalina"

After finalization and testing of prototypes, the cars were ready for serial production, which began on November 18, 2004, and the first car of the Kalina family was a 4-door sedan with a factory index VAZ-1118. The next car of the family was a 5-door hatchback with a factory index VAZ-1119, its assembly began on July 21, 2006. The station wagon with the factory index VAZ-1117 became the last representative of the first generation Lada "Kalina" family, which began to be produced in early 2007, and in September of the same year the whole family of cars received a new 1.4-liter engine and ABS system.

The production of cars was adjusted, sales went, but not without defects. One of the first cars in the face of the VAZ-1118 sedan, produced from December 2005 to May 2006, were recalled for troubleshooting. It turned out that 6,200 cars had a defect in the steering column, 8,400 cars had a defect in engine mounts and another 171 cars had a defect in the casting of the steering box. The batch was recalled and the identified defects were eliminated in dealerships.

The cars of the first generation of the Lada "Kalina" family were equipped with three different injection engines with a volume of 1.4 or 1.6 liters and a power of 81 to 98 horsepower, a 5-speed manual gearbox. The car interior is spacious and quite modern for its time with a small but comfortable trunk. "Kalina" received an electric ruble amplifier and an anti-lock braking system (ABS).

In May 2011, AvtoVAZ announced the termination of production of Lada Kalina cars with a sedan-type body (VAZ-1118); it was replaced on the assembly line by a more modern sedan named Lada Granta. After the assembly line was modernized in March 2013, the last representatives of the first generation Lada "Kalina" family were removed from production, they were replaced by the already updated second generation "Kalina-2" cars.

Second generation - Lada "Kalina-2"

In 2013, after restyling, AVTOVAZ began production of modernized cars of the family with the code name Lada "Kalina-2" (officially two cars are not indicated in the family name), it was from that moment that second-generation cars began to roll off the assembly line of the automobile plant. The updated family of cars "Kalina" includes only a hatchback and a station wagon, but instead of a sedan, they produce "Grant".

The second generation cars are based on a serious modernization of the body of the first generation and most of the technical solutions "Grants" such as negative camber, engines, power structure and steering.

At the beginning of 2017, the lineup of second-generation Lada Kalina cars includes 4 station wagons, hatchbacks, cross wagon and sport hatchbacks, and each is produced in three basic trim levels (except for the cross version, there are only 2 trim levels - norm and luxury). The cheapest car of the family was a hatchback, its cost in the standard configuration, taking into account the maximum benefit, is 400 thousand rubles, without it for 440 thousand. If we compare this price with the price of the end of 2015, then the car has risen in price by almost 65 thousand (in 2015, the same equipment cost 376 thousand 300 rubles). The cheapest "standard" equipment comes only with an 8-valve engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and a capacity of 87 horsepower, it includes a driver's airbag, immobilizer, daytime running lights, a full-size spare wheel, front power windows, central locking, light tinted windows , electric power steering, audio preparation, cabin air filter and electric headlight range control. The most expensive representative of the family was the sport version of the Lada Kalina NFR, its price is 850 thousand rubles, just a fantastic price for a domestic car.

Design and construction

The body structure of the first generation cars of the Lada "Kalina" family meets modern safety requirements, and due to the shorter length compared to the cars of the "Samara" family (VAZ-2113 / /), the cars have better maneuverability and are more adapted for driving in dense city traffic. Depending on the configuration, the cars were equipped with airbags, air conditioning, electric power steering and anti-lock braking system (ABS).

Cars of the first generation were equipped with three different engines - VAZ-21114 with a volume of 1.6 liters, VAZ-11194 with a volume of 1.4 liters and VAZ-21126 with a volume of 1.6 liters, while the power was 81, 89 and 98 horsepower, respectively. Together with the engine, a mechanical 5-speed gearbox was installed.

Compared to the first generation, Kalina-2 cars are distinguished by a more modern appearance - new headlights, taillights, new bumpers, a radiator grill and much more. The exterior of the car is much more attractive. The interior has also changed, it has become more modern, a new panel, a dashboard, an on-board computer, a multimedia system with navigation and a 7-inch touchscreen display (in luxury trim levels), parking and rain sensors, heated windshield, etc.

Cars of the second generation received a new chassis: a rear beam with negative camber, a "short" steering rack with a gear ratio of 3.1. New shock absorbers, springs, silent blocks and anti-roll bars with new characteristics have been developed. The front suspension of cars is independent, such as MacPherson, spring, with anti-roll bar. The rear suspension is semi-independent, lever, spring, with hydraulic or gas-filled telescopic shock absorbers. As a result of these innovations, the experienced ones managed to establish that the cars have increased smoothness, stability and handling on the road.

The power units have also changed, the Lada "Kalina-2" is equipped with three types of 1.6-liter engines: an 8-valve VAZ-11186 engine with 87 horsepower with a manual transmission, a 16-valve VAZ-21126 with a 98 horsepower with an automatic transmission , and a 16-valve VAZ-21127 with a capacity of 106 horsepower on the mechanics. The new VAZ-21127 engine is an upgrade of the VAZ-21126 engine, it is more powerful, but at the same time more economical than its predecessor, and is more adapted to urban conditions. The engine received more than twenty original parts, for example, an absolute pressure sensor is used instead of a mass air flow sensor (MAF). The sports version is equipped with 16-valve engines, the most powerful of which is a 136-horsepower 1.6-liter engine.

In addition to the new engines, Kalina-2 received a new mechanical gearbox from the Japanese company Atsumitec with a cable drive. Compared to the lever drive, the cable drive reduced vibration on the gearshift lever. In addition, after the modernization of the gearbox, it became more reliable, the quality of gear shifting improved, the effort to engage the gear was three times reduced, and the longitudinal stroke of the lever decreased by 32 millimeters. In addition to the mechanical box "Kalina-2", depending on the configuration, is equipped with a 4-speed automatic and 5-speed robotic gearboxes.
