Carrying out transportation, delivering the owner from point A to point B, or simply becoming a symbol of wealth, people need a car in 2022.
There is no analogue of a vehicle in the world that is so widespread and popular. And the AvtoVAZ Lada model range is especially popular among the former USSR.
Practical, reliable, adapted to the realities of Russian roads, AvtoVAZ cars have recently had a stylish design and fashionable design.
Painting features
The appearance of the car is the first thing people pay attention to. There is nothing worse than a poorly chosen shade or poorly executed paint job. The body colors of the Lada Vesta are metallic (with the exception of white); to obtain the result, it is necessary to follow the stages and technology of car painting. It is important to maintain stylistic unity in the overall appearance. Lada Vesta's color scheme is chosen so that the body color emphasizes the lines of the car's silhouette more than usual and creates a spectacular impression of its appearance.
↑ Choice and additional payment for color
The only free shade is white, produced under number 221. For all other colors of the Lada Vesta, the company charges an additional fee. So, for example, the shade “lime” is the most unique and unlike all other tones, so you will have to pay an additional 35 thousand rubles for it. And even if this is a considerable amount, it is impossible not to look at such a car when passing by it.
As for all other shades, the manufacturer charges much less for them, namely 12 thousand rubles. On the official AvtoVAZ website you can see what a car will look like in a particular solution, which makes choosing a car much easier.
Colors for Lada Vesta and codes for them
The palette of various shades is wide; for convenience, each of the newly developed paints is assigned a code. Vesta has developed colors to choose from: White “Glacial” (221) Red “Carnelian” (195) Brown “Angkor” (246) Dark blue “Blues” (492) Dark green “Krypton” (372) Gray-blue “ Phantom" (496) Gray "Pluto" (608) Black "Black Pearl" (676) Silver "Platinum" (691) Everyone has their own preferences in all areas of life, and car paint is purely a matter of taste. The presented options have unique features.
↑ Designers' plans for the future
Domestic manufacturers, having released the Lada Vesta, have made a significant step forward. Not only the sector responsible for the safety and functionality of the car worked, but also the design workshop. High-quality forms and well-chosen color options are definitely a plus for them.
As for the projects planned for implementation in the coming years, there is also some interesting news. Firstly, a slightly adjusted Cross version of Vesta will be released, with improved body protection and increased ground clearance with the size of the wheels themselves. According to the manufacturer, this should improve the car’s off-road capability.
The project of a sports variation of the Lada Vesta also stands apart. In terms of its parameters, it will be close to racing cars. The creation of this model was influenced by feedback from drivers who used the Lada in rallies. The concept car looks very impressive and progressive, but nothing is known about the planned color palette. The color turquoise appears in the photographs, but it is unclear whether it will be on the final list.
Angkor has code 246, looks brown
Angkor, or metallic brown, is a popular, frequently chosen sedan color. This shade of milk chocolate goes perfectly with the urban setting, harmoniously diluting the grayness of residential areas. The color is not easily soiled, pleasing to the eye in the dirtiest weather, successfully hiding dust and minor imperfections. It belongs to the category of classic colors that have unobtrusively and confidently conquered the market. Practical and versatile, the brown Lada Vesta is suitable for men and women, becoming evidence of the owner's business character.
↑ Lada Vesta SW palette
The Lada Vesta SW is also available in the same colors as the regular Lada. There is the stylish Lada Vesta coriander, and rich red, which attracts attention with its rich hue, and dark blue, which amazes with its depth of tone, and, of course, the standard crystal white is also present! That is, the palette completely coincides with those shades that are present in the “sedan” category.
Let's look at the most popular solutions in this class.
Perhaps the brightest and most saturated color is “lime”. According to many Internet portals, this option is the most successful, and this can be explained. Such a light green car will always be noticeable on the road. This color is rightfully considered the most youthful. And, of course, the most popular among women. By the way, the price for painting this color is the highest.
Another popular option is Krypton. If you remember, this was the name of the planet in the Superman comics, on which the radioactive substance kryptonite, glowing bright green, was located. But, even despite such a bright option, a car painted green still looks strict and restrained. It turns out that this is a universal color suitable for almost any car.
Another color used in this line is “Angkor”. This is the name of one of the most ancient temple complexes located in Cambodia. Accordingly, the color turned out to be just as mysterious and beautiful.
The rich chocolate tone, gradually turning into metallic gray, has still not left anyone who saw it indifferent. If the brown Lada comes under sunlight, it turns golden yellow. This effect of transitional shades is called a chameleon and is obtained by mixing several shades at once. As a result, the car owner receives a car that shimmers in all shades of brown.
Glacial has code 221, looks white
White Lada Vesta is the most popular option, since the paint is not metallic; in addition to its advantages, it is extremely inexpensive. The strict arctic shade emphasizes the lines of the silhouette, and the black body elements stand out as much as possible against the background of the car. The rear headlights look like a bright fragment - giving the overall appearance a certain zest. Quite capricious in handling, in terms of chips - on white, the slightest imperfections, dirt, traces of rain are clearly visible. But I must say that the white color is more practical than black, the black Vesta gets dirty quickly - this color is called: “Die with a rag.” Under the rays of sunlight, the white Lada Vesta sedan sparkles like pure snow, laconically confirming the name - Glacier. White color characterizes the Sport style!
↑ Lada Vesta SW cross palette
The variations in the SV cross car are somewhat different from the two previous models. So, here are presented not only the above-mentioned colors of the Lada Vesta SW, but also “Mars”. This is a bright and rich orange Lada Vesta color, which is ideal for people who prefer bright shades of ripe fruits.
Also, for those who do not like everyday dark shades, the company suggests paying attention to the “Carnelian” shade. It acquired its name thanks to the stone of the same name, which also has a pink or red color. This is exactly how the SV cross of the rich tone “Carnelian” turned out. Such a bright and rich tone of the body looks very beautiful and rich. On the streets of a big city, the red Vesta will definitely not go unnoticed. Well, for those who prefer more conservative shades, an excellent option in the usual white color is suitable.
The Lada SW cross in platinum color also looks good. This is a shade that is one of the most popular for all cars. Not only does it look advantageous in almost any lighting, but also, unlike all other shades, dust and dirt are practically invisible. In addition, this color goes well with almost any accessories and wheels. And, of course, it is suitable for any gender and age.
Well, for those who prefer depth of tones, the “Blues” shade would be an excellent option. This color, like the musical style, has its own special, unique charm. This shade, at the same time strict and soft, looks very elegant and beautiful. A blue car will be the best option for those who feel confident behind the wheel and know their worth.
Pluto – code 608
The dark gray Lada evokes thoughts of constancy and stability. There are many representatives of this car color, which gives the impression of reliability and confidence - tomorrow is a new day, new food. This shade is the least easily soiled - important for any owner. The most unexpected thing is that in the graphite tone the outlines of the “X” - shaped lines on the side doors of the car - are very noticeable. Despite the ordinariness, Vesta, colored Pluto, surprises with its unity of style.
Phantom – code 496
Changeability, dynamism, activity - traits that allow you to keep up with the rapid flow of life, traits inherent in the Lada Vesta in gray-blue color. The car, a real chameleon, is capable of changing depending on the situation. Strict, laconic in urban conditions, soft, lively, like the nature around the off-road. A cut gemstone, the color shimmers from bluish to the shade of the sky at dawn, making you want to continuously admire the car.
Angkor
The brown color of the Lada Vesta SW is becoming increasingly popular. The demand is partly determined by the realities of off-road conditions, which can be found even in the middle of the city. Clay is clearly visible in all shades except Angkor. Lovers of country trips are impressed by the opportunity to stay clean for as long as possible. When you arrive at the garage, there is no need to immediately grab the hose and start washing.
↑ Reviews about platinum color
As you can find out from the comments to the Lada post, there have been no negative reviews of the new color yet: the plant’s designers believe that black and silver colors, for example, black pearl and platinum, are universal, suitable for owners of various ages and temperaments.
An exception may be young people who value above all else their exclusivity in everything, including the color of their car. In the video, which can be found on our website, everyone can see with their own eyes the incredible charm of the platinum-colored Lada cross 2022, its magnetism and attractiveness.
Important. A thoughtful combination of shades in the new color made it possible to create a coating that is durable, bright and reliable, and also extremely non-staining: dust and dirt are not as noticeable on it as on others.
As an alternative point of view, opposite to positive assessments, you can find an ambiguous review from the owner of Vesta on the Internet:
- “Everything is bad, the car needs to be periodically “finished with a file”, comfort is almost zero, the systems are unstable.”
At the same time, the author notes that no serious problems occurred with the car during its operation, and as the main argument he cites the following: everything would be fine if the Lada was cheaper.
This information excited other motorists, causing a strong reaction. If we put aside emotions, then the machine (and its coating) have practically no real shortcomings, this is confirmed by operating experience and proven developments in the treatment of Vesta’s “diseases”.
Paint quality: which is better, galvanization or cathophoresis, and what is the guarantee?
In fact, the very appointment of Bu Inge Anderson as the head of our auto giant during a difficult time for AvtoVAZ was associated with improving the quality of its products. The further course of events showed that fundamental improvements had taken place, starting from the design and interior equipment of the cabin and ending with the build quality of the car, which were most fully manifested in the Vesta model.

And the current 6-year warranty on painting is not so much a marketing ploy, but the fact that the eternal domestic problem of protection against corrosion and poor quality of body coating has been overcome. If the first problem in the West is solved by galvanizing bodies, dipping them into molten zinc, then AvtoVAZ decided to go its own way and is trying to protect the body with a cathophoresis primer.

Of course, 6 warranty years is not 15, like Swedish ones, or 20 years, like some German cars, but this is good by our standards, or, as they say, it’s nothing more than the beginning. However, cathophoresis is actually cooler than banal galvanizing, since it is an electrochemical process of attaching a substance to the metal that performs protective functions.
