Like many other cars, this car has a number of pros and cons. The advantages include the comfort of the salon, which in comparison with the "classics" came to a completely different level. The control panel is quite convenient and informative, there is no need to stretch for half a meter to turn on the desired button or switch a new lever. Stylish design, smooth lines, beautiful forms, not inferior to European brands, like many owners of Lada Priora.

What are the advantages of Lada Priora car? Reviews indicate that the car is easily started when the temperature is 25-30 degrees below zero, which is important for the cold Russian climate. The stove works very well - in the cabin, in a few minutes, it becomes warm, a capacious trunk. Suspension of the car is estimated for a solid 4-ku on a five-point system - small bumps machine "swallows", large, and such on Russian roads a lot, are given quite noticeable in the car Lada Priora.

The owners' testimonies indicate that another plus of the car is the large heated side mirrors, which remain clean even in rainy weather and during the mass melting of snow.

The minuses of the car of this brand are typical for the entire domestic automotive industry - reliability of the components and components leaves much to be desired. Virtually every owner has a small problem every 1.5-2 months of intensive use, even if it's a new car from the cabin. However, some machines work for several years without any significant breakdowns. It can be noted that spare parts for a car are cheaper than for foreign cars of a similar price category.

There is one more drawback of the car Lada Priora. The owners' comments indicate low noise isolation of the cabin. In addition, the salon itself constantly creaks.

To date, Lada Priora - the most advanced machine of the domestic automotive industry, in quality and configuration similar to European models of the middle class.
