An experienced driver knows which gasoline to fill by observing the reaction of his car to different types of fuel. Correctly selected gasoline plays an important role in maintaining the performance and mechanisms of the Lada Granta car. from hundreds of similar proposals - a real art that the driver will master only over time.
Gasoline selection criteria
When choosing a suitable fuel option, the car owner must take a number of rules as a basis:
- In the event that it will be used both in warm and cold seasons, it is recommended to pay attention to the evaporative class of the purchased gasoline. The requirements for this substance vary depending on the area of operation, however, for the most part, suppliers strive to offer a universal product, which should be chosen for the Lada Granta car.
- Gasoline must be free of hazardous impurities such as lead, iron or manganese. Such a product is rightfully considered to be of poor quality and can disable the vehicle's fuel system.
- Most manufacturers, in an effort to protect the tank from corrosion and destruction, add so-called additives to gasoline. However, adding such a substance yourself to the finished product is not worth it. It would be more expedient to purchase a premium product that will provide maximum protection.
In real life, the choice varies between two brands of gasoline poured into the tank: 92nd and 95th. Domestic drivers use both options with equal success, but it is rather difficult to determine the best one.
The manufacturer of Lada Granta recommends the use of 95th gasoline due to its high quality. Such gasoline is supplied refined, without impurities. In addition, it has cleansing properties, to which there is a rather ambivalent attitude. On the one hand, such a fuel prevents dust and dirt from entering the gas tank, on the other hand, with constant use, it has a destructive effect on the metal itself.
The 92nd gasoline is rightfully considered to be much more gentle, as it contains nothing but the raw material provided for by the manufacturing technology. In addition, filling this product will be much cheaper than its 95th equivalent.
When choosing the right gasoline, the car owner should pay attention to the recommendations given by the manufacturer and adapt them to his region and the needs of the car.
How to fill up gasoline yourself?
Having decided what gasoline to fill, the motorist can go to a gas station for fuel, where a professional refueller will come to the rescue. However, in some cases, he will have to fill in gasoline on his own.
In order not to be left without fuel at the most unpredictable moment, it is important to constantly check the level of the fuel tank filling.
Refueling may be required en route, so you should always have a canister and a funnel with you.
Refuel when less than half the tank remains. Many inexperienced drivers prefer to drive until a light comes on on the dashboard, indicating that the container is almost empty. This practice is quite risky and can significantly harm the motor system. Gasoline cools the fuel pump, which, overheating, will simply burst. If the tank is filled according to the rules, you can safely go to the gas station.
When driving up to a gas station, it is important to park your car correctly in front of the filling machine on the side on which the gas tank cap is located. It is advisable to place the car in such a way that the gas tank and the gas station are on the same level. After that, unscrew the gas tank cap and insert a filling nozzle of the appropriate brand into it.
After that, you need to make a payment and indicate how many liters of fuel are required. Returning to the car, you need to press the lever on the pistol, then the fuel supply will be made automatically.
At the same time, the motorist must also know how to drain gasoline from the tank in case he comes across a low-quality product. This can be done in three main ways.
Gas tank (fuel tank) - capacity in the car where fuel is stored. Usually, the gas tank is installed at the bottom of the body at the rear. This arrangement has a good effect on the "weight distribution" of the car. On the Lada Granta, the gas tank is made of plastic.
The volume of the fuel tank Lada Granta
How much can this beauty put in our Grant?
The volume of the fuel tank, regardless of the configuration on the Lada Grant car, is 50 liters.
Add to this no more than 2 liters, which will be in the fuel line and the fuel filter, and you get the maximum volume that can be refueled in this car. , this is exactly what the manufacturer recommends.
Remember that you only need to “refuel until full” before the trip. Otherwise, during long-term parking under the influence of external factors, gasoline vapors will evaporate through special holes in the gas tank. This will be especially noticeable in hot weather.
When "filling the tank to full", the first shooting of the column will occur already at 45 liters. In this case, the fuel level will be indicated on the instrument panel "without one division to full". It is because of this that disputes arise that the gas tank is actually less than the volume declared by AvtoVAZ in the technical documentation. In my experience, after the first shot in the "slow fill" mode, it is possible to add about 6 liters more.
By simple mathematical addition operations the volume of all gasoline in the system is at least 51 liters, which corresponds to the information declared by the car manufacturer.
Fuel tank appearance
The drain hole on the Lada Grant gas tank is not provided for by the design, therefore.
When does the low fuel level indicator light come on?
Indicator lamp for low gasoline level when the volume of fuel in the gas tank is not more than 7 liters.

Main performance characteristics Grants
The novelty has a length of 4246 mm (for a sedan 4260), a width of 1700 mm and a height of 1500 mm. The wheelbase of the liftback is similar to the sedan - 2476 mm, the same situation with the front track - 1430 mm and the rear track - 1414. In the curb state, the Lada Granta in the body of the liftback has a mass of 1160 kg, and the gross weight is 1560 kg. It is a little more mass that makes a car with a five-door body less dynamic, but the difference is a split second and no driver can tell the difference. Of the rest of the technical characteristics of LADA Granta Liftback, it is worth noting a trunk of 440 liters, which can be increased by folding the rear seats up to 760 liters. Recall that the liftback is slightly shorter than the sedan, which is why the trunk volume is slightly less when the rear seats are unfolded. The capacity of the new item's fuel tank is 50 liters, the permissible mass of the towed load is 450 kg, if the trailer is with brakes, then its gross weight can be up to 900 kg. Equipped with grants liftback with three different engines -
- 8-valve gasoline engine with 87 hp.
- 16-valve petrol engine with 98 hp.
- 16-valve petrol engine with 106 hp.
Granta liftback dynamics characteristics
Grant with a 106 hp engine. and a manual transmission accelerates to "hundreds" in 11 seconds, and the maximum speed is 177 km / h. These data correspond to the dynamic characteristics of the sedan, but for less powerful engines the comparison is not in favor of the five-door body, since it is heavier. In the combined driving cycle, the novelty consumes from 6.7 to 7.6 liters of 95th gasoline. All other data from the site https://factik.ru/, including tire size, clearance of liftback grants and much more, you can find out from the table.
Possible configurations of the VAZ Grant, in which you can easily find the optimal one for yourself. The budget cost, the high ground clearance of Lada Granta, which makes it easy to overcome off-road conditions, the availability of service, a roomy interior, a huge trunk - these are the main advantages of the car.
VAZ Grant shared a platform for a low-budget front-wheel drive car. Today the Grants family is represented by two models.
- Four-door sedan.
- Five-door liftback in three trim levels:
- "standard";
- "norm";
- "Luxury".
Technical characteristics Grants will vary depending on the configuration.

The length of the sedan body is 4260 mm, its width is 1700 mm, and its height is 1500 mm. The wheelbase of the car is 2475 mm. The dimensions of the liftback differ from the sedan only in the length of the body, which has slightly decreased and is 4246 mm. The volume of the fuel tank (50 l) is the same for all modifications. The luggage compartment is 480 liters for the sedan, 440 liters for the liftback.
Front ventilated, rear - drum. Independent front suspension, McPherson type, rear - spring semi-dependent. Curb weight - 1115 kg, the number of passenger seats - 5. For the Grants family, there are three power units with a capacity of 83 to 106 horsepower (hp). Transmission - mechanic or automatic.
There are a total of 5 variants of engine and transmission combinations, which one to choose, each one decides in accordance with his own requirements. The minimum configuration "standard" is equipped with a gasoline 1.6-liter engine with an output of 83 liters. s and simple. The maximum speed does not exceed 164.5 km / h, acceleration to the first hundred takes 12.5 seconds.
The maximum torque is 132 Nm with a speed of 3500 rpm. The minimum ground clearance is 160 mm. If the car is empty, then the ground clearance reaches 175 mm. Fuel - gasoline AI-95, consumption is 9.3 liters in the urban cycle and 6.2 liters on the highway. In the combined cycle, consumption is 7.4 liters. The content of harmful substances in exhaust gases complies with the Euro-4 standard.
The steering wheel can be unscrewed to the stop by four turns. The steering gear is a pinion rack. The equipment includes daytime running lights, full-size spare wheel, ISOFIX mounts, folding rear seats, driver's airbag, audio preparation, inertial seat belts. Only 16% of the 20 thousand sold Lada Grant cars corresponded to the "standard" modification. The rest 84% belong to "norm" or "luxury".
Regarding Grants liftback, it is planned to equip its "luxury" with a more powerful engine of 106 liters. with., which will only communicate with the mechanics. Today Granta liftback is the most powerful car of this family. The weakest motor for a liftback is 87 hp. with. Like the sedan, the five-door Granta will be equipped with both a manual transmission and an automatic transmission.
Together with a slight decrease in the length of the body, the number of cubic meters also decreased. l luggage compartment, and clearance. The volume of the liftback trunk is 440 liters. But if necessary, its capacity can be easily increased by removing the shelf or folding the rear row of seats. The minimum ground clearance is 140 mm for cars with automatic transmission, the ground clearance of Grants liftback with a mechanical transmission is 160 mm.
Complete sets "norm" and "standard"
Starting with the "norm" on the Grant, a 4-cylinder in-line engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and 87 liters is installed. with., which is equipped with a new five-speed manual gearbox with a cable drive, or a 1.6-liter engine with 98 liters. with., equipped with an automatic transmission. For all versions with automatic transmission, a Japanese four-band Jatco automatic, developed not without the participation of the Nissan concern, is installed on the Grant.
Unlike its "poor" brother, Granta "norm" accelerates to 100 km / h in 11.5 seconds. increased to 167 km / h. At the same time, gasoline consumption decreased. Driving in the city will require 8.5 liters, on the highway - 5.8, the combined cycle consumes 7.2 liters of fuel. Maximum torque - 143 Nm, 3,500 rpm. The number of revolutions of the steering wheel was reduced to 3. Indicators such as ground clearance, exhaust safety standard, steering mechanism remained the same as in the "standard" configuration.
Optional equipment Grants "norm" significantly increased. In addition to what is in the "standard", the basic equipment of the middle configuration includes three-point inertial seat belts with a seat belt indicator, an immobilizer, a hydraulic headlight range control, an on-board computer, a primary instrument, a steering servo system (electric), adjustable in two steering planes column, air filter, central locking, front power windows.
At the request and depending on the buyer's ability to pay, the car can be equipped with a front passenger airbag, ABS + BAS systems, athermal glass, air conditioning, replace the inertial belts with belts with a pretensioner. Lada Granta became the first Russian car on which an automatic transmission is serially installed. But if they prefer to buy the "norm" mainly on the mechanics, then in the sales of "luxury" the automatic transmission is in the lead.
Lada Granta in the "luxury" version has a 1.6-liter 90-horsepower engine or a 16-valve unit with a capacity of 98 liters borrowed from Priora. with. It is the second motor that can be equipped with an automatic transmission. The main characteristics (dimensions, ground clearance, fuel tank volume, luggage compartment capacity, steering wheel "length", suspension type, braking system) coincide with the "norm". The maximum speed of Lada Grant is 168 km / h. Fuel consumption 8.8 / 5.9 / 7.4 liters for urban, suburban and mixed modes, respectively.
