"Priora" - clearance. "Lada Priora" - technical characteristics, ground clearance. VAZ Priory

In 2006, JSC AvtoVAZ began the first cycle of preparation for the release of the new model Lada Priora. The car, which received the index of 2170, was created on the basis of the Lada-110 model, taking the platform and the engine from it. In fact, "Priora" was an in-depth restyling of "dozens." The design noted about a thousand changes, both superficial and fundamental. To "Priora" has passed the extensive nomenclature of details of an interior and a luggage space. Exterior "Lada Priora", clearance and many other parameters of the running gear differed from the data of the 110th model. The doors became wider by 5 mm, which forced the stamping shop of the plant in Togliatti to rebuild several punches and matrices. Thus, the identity of "Lada-110" and "Lada Priora" was minimized. AvtoVAZ engineers counted over a thousand details that distinguished the former "Lada" from the new one, and radically changed the design of the "dozens." External attributes, moldings, cast rims, exterior door handles, front optics, tail lights, hood, trunk, feathers and the whole exterior breathed newness. The last stroke of the update is Kama Euro tires 185/65 R14.

A successful solution

The interior of "Lada Priora", the clearance of which assumed a high enough landing, was developed in the Italian city of Turin, in the engineering design studio of Cancerano. The interior is dominated by a modern style of interior car design. It was possible to eliminate the shortcomings of past design developments in the interior of the 110th model. The exterior design has also undergone changes. The overly accentuated boundary zone between the roof and the rest of the body along the line of the rear pillar was abolished. Rear wheel arches "Lada Priora" have acquired a more aesthetic appearance. It was canceled a solid strip of tail lights, which looked somewhat ridiculous on a compact car, instead of it, two vertically developed lanterns appeared on the edges of the trunk lid, visually expanding the exterior. In general, designers managed to move away from the nominal image of the "antelope in position", which they called the "top ten" among the people, as soon as it appeared on Russian roads. A "Lada" Priora ", technical characteristics, ground clearance, wheelbase, dimensions and contours of the body of which said that a successful solution was found on the basic parameters, no one doubted it.

Interior

High level of ergonomics also did not cause censures. Finishing materials, relatively inexpensive, but of high quality, are combined in color and make the interior space of the car cozy and relaxing. The tone of decoration Italian designers used in a double, layered version. The upper tier of the interior is finished with light materials, and the lower one - with darker materials. There is no contrast between these two levels, one color replaces another smoothly, in semitones. In fact, all interior trim is solved in a two-color version, which creates an impression of integrity. The armrest of the driver's door is equipped with semi-automatic buttons for controlling the windows, there is also a joystick for adjusting the exterior mirrors. All buttons are made in the format of anti-deletion, random touch does not turn them on.

Devices

Between the front seats is a small console in the form of an armrest with two cuvettes for small items, which is very convenient, since usually a trifle like a female hairpin flies all over the cabin. In the ceiling at the top edge of the windshield is mounted a lamp, combined with a pocket for glasses. The instrument panel includes all the necessary sensors, dials and various indicators. Instruments are located rationally, their readings are well read, and the muted illumination of the instrument panel allows you to see all the necessary information in the dark. In the center of the upper part of the torpedo is the display of the on-board trip computer, where you can see odometer readings, fuel consumption parameters in several modes, average speed and time readings over several time zones.

New items

The original module to the left of the steering wheel, in which the control sensors are collected: near and high beam, parking lights, fog lamps, headlight adjustment correctors, the brightness of the lighting devices, attracts attention. There is also a duplicating button opening the luggage compartment. The main one is located under the driver's right hand, near the gear lever. It is characteristic that the trunk lid can only be opened from the passenger compartment: the lock on the lid itself is abolished, in its place - a smooth surface. According to the most modern technologies, the front and rear glass is sealed, which gives the impression of a complete monolithic fusion of the body with the glass.

Lack of

Salon in terms of space has not changed, all internal dimensions remain the same, similar to the 110th model. The amplitude of the adjustment of the front seats leaves much to be desired. The sled is obviously insufficient in length, and if a tall man sits behind the wheel, he will be uncomfortable in the "tight" condition. At the same time, the passive safety of the machine has been increased, shock-absorbing inserts appeared in the front doors and in the torpedo, which are organically integrated into the structure.

Power point

The engine "Lada Priora" is the tested and tested power unit VAZ-21104 in volume of 1,6 liters, capacity of 98 l. from. With four valves for one cylinder. Alternatively, the engine can be installed 21128 (volume 1.8 liters, 120 hp), but this can only happen in the tuning of "Lada Priora" Italian company "Super Auto". Separately, it should be said that for this engine was an attempt to improve the gas distribution mechanism by using the timing belt and the tension pulley firm Federal Mogul with a resource guarantee of 200 thousand kilometers for these parts. Nobody believes in such a resource, including the firm itself, but they replaced it, which they soon regretted.

Front suspension

Transmission - 5-step, with a strengthened clutch mechanism, focused on torque in 145 Nm. In KP closed bearings are used with increased life. Vacuum amplifier of the latest modification allows you to significantly reduce the effort when you press the brake pedal and increases the efficiency of the entire brake system of the car. The front suspension is verified by the completeness of the spiral springs and shock absorbers, selected in the optimal combination. The shape of the spirals used has been changed quite radically - from cylindrical springs turned into barrel-shaped, but the effect of this metamorphosis has not yet manifested itself in any way. Nevertheless, in spite of the fact that the approach to the question was almost scientific and experimental, an impressive result was still obtained, the progress of the car became soft and smooth. The role of stabilizers and lateral stability of the front suspension.

Rear suspension

The rear suspension is equipped with reinforced springs, which together with hydraulic shock absorbers give stability and stability of the entire pendulum structure, thus ensuring good handling of the car. As a result of the successful balance of the entire running gear of the Lada Priora, the clearance of which, in the sense of 145 mm, presupposed the development of dynamics, was able to achieve high speed indicators. On the highway, the maximum speed of the car is over 180 km / h. Accelerates the VAZ "Priora" to 100 km / h in 11 seconds, which for a car of this class is a good result. The CO ₂ emission in the model is minimal due to the use of a magnetostriction-based catalyst, which reduces the CO ₂ content in the exhaust to the values of the Euro-3 and Euro-4 standards.

Packages

"Lada Priora" is sold as standard "standard", which includes: driver's airbag, power steering, central locking with remote signal, steering column with height adjuster, electric two-position power windows for front doors, on-board computer, software immobilizer, Electronic clock, headrests in the rear seats, rear seat backrest with armrests, headlight corrector.

VAZ "Priora" is equipped with a modern system of heating and ventilation, which allows maintaining a given microclimate in the cabin, as well as providing instant sweating of the windows. Although fogging is extremely rare, because all the windows in the car are athermal, and the rear is electrically heated. Active safety in the "normal" set is not provided, the ABS system is installed on the car as a luxury kit (since 2008). The same can be said for the automatic distribution of braking forces - the EBD system. Suite "includes" also air conditioning, servo windows for all four doors, airbag for the front passenger seat. The "luxury" version can be distinguished by stylish fog lamps integrated into the front bumper, parktronic indicators, heated exterior mirrors, painted in body color,

Clearance, on which much depends

"Lada Priora", technical characteristics, ground clearance, wheelbase, the length and width of which were balanced in the best way, began to enjoy a steady demand. At the same time, in 2008, simultaneously with the "Lux" kit, a hatchback "Lada Priora" appeared, the clearance of which was understated up to 145 mm. A lot depends on the height of the ground clearance . Therefore the "Priora" clearance-hatchback was calculated for the standard loading of this type of body. With a full load for a hatchback-type car, 145-155 mm of ground clearance is sufficient. Clearance "Priora" station wagon demanded other values, since the carrying capacity of a car with such a body is much higher than that of conventional cars. And when the trunk and the rear of the cabin are loaded to the maximum, the entire chassis sags. Therefore, the model "Lada Priora" station wagon, the clearance of which required a high landing, received a ground clearance of 165 mm. The situation is different with the road clearance of cars with a sedan body, as this is the most common type of bodywork. Clearance "Priora" sedan is calculated by the general standard for passenger cars. From the most protruding point under the car's bottom (usually the muffler body) to the roadway, the distance should be at least 135 cm. In most AvtoVAZ models, the ground clearance is 165 mm, and for Lada Priora, an increase in clearance is not required.

Anticorrosive materials

Slightly more than half of all body parts for the "Priora" is made of metal of galvanized and anodized, low-alloy grades. And the parts most susceptible to corrosion - wheel arches, body floor, thresholds - are made of steel, galvanized by hot coating technology. High anti-corrosion resistance of the body of "Lada Priora" is supported by high-quality painting using a multilayer primer. The anti-corrosion properties of the car body are guaranteed by the manufacturer for a 6-year service life.
