Ground clearance or ground clearance is the distance from the surface on which the car stands to its lowest, central point. This parameter affects the maneuverability and stability of the machine. According to the manufacturer, the Lada XRAY Cross has a ground clearance of 215 mm
. Is it really?
To check the real ground clearance of the car, a tire with a height of 200 mm was placed on the road. While passing it, a Lada XRAY dragged the tire under the bottom for several meters. It turns out that the real ground clearance of the Lada XRAY Cross is about 195 mm
. This is all due to the body elements that hang immediately behind the subframe. How this test took place is shown in the video (watch from 6:20):
Comparing the real ground clearance of modern LADA cars, we have compiled a comparison table:
| Vesta | XRAY | XRAY Cross | Granta | Kalina | Kalina Cross | Largus | Largus Cross | Priora | |
| Ground clearance, mm | 187-190 | 190 | 195 | 205 | 195 | 200 | 175 | 195 | 170-187 |
Let us remind you that earlier experts determined the real ground clearance of the regular version of the Lada XRAY. It also turned out to be smaller than AvtoVAZ claims.

Reviews from owners of Lada X-Ray Cross 2020-2021
They say that AvtoVAZ engineers found two extra centimeters in the Cross for rear space by moving the rear sofa somewhere. I don’t know how they are, I personally didn’t find them - it’s cramped in the back. No not like this. It's fantastically tight in the back. I didn’t repeat the common trick of “sit by yourself”, I was afraid of getting stuck and forever having to live in the back seat of X-Ray. My seven-year-old son (128 cm) sits normally, but when disembarking and landing, he snorts severely and silently. I'm afraid to ask how it feels for him.
I would also really like to talk about the dashboard. Psychologists say that the color orange carries “cheerfulness, a positive attitude, passion, readiness to solve complex problems, joy and spontaneity.” I'm happy for those passionate cheerleaders who painted the appliances orange, but I'm lazy and dull and would prefer simpler colors.
Review of Lada XRAY Cross 1.6 (113 hp) with CVT 2020
We have roads throughout the winter, but not everywhere, there is porridge in the yard, it’s difficult to walk. I’m checking how Raid Select will work: the green arrow blinks, I’m driving straight, my rear isn’t dragging, great. I give it a plus. We drive into the yard, there is a rut, I drive straight, it comes out of the rut calmly. Then the snow porridge: it goes, rows, as if nothing had happened, only the arrow blinks. A definite plus!
Review of Lada X-Ray Cross 1.8 (122 hp) with manual transmission 2022
Motor and transmission. In short, it's all smooth and slow. During the run-in, I even regretted that I took the version with the CVT. But after 2-3 thousand km the car went better. I also noticed that the transmission does not like to drive “cold” - it needs to be warmed up before the trip for at least five minutes.
I really like the suspension on the X Ray Cross. I think it’s no worse tuned than Renault, and these guys are famous for their ability to adapt hardware to Russian roads. Potholes, potholes, sleeping policemen are handled with a bang!
Review of the new Lada X Ray Cross 1.6 CVT 2022
Every time I try to open or close the window, I have to play little dinosaur. You press your paw towards your body, twist it harder, and only then can you operate the windows. And this circus with fastening the belt through the target between the seat and the armrest?!
If the left hand will soon become a dinosaur's paw, then the right hand will be flexible and thin like a snake. The factory music is also interesting. In the middle there is a convenient knob for... don't think it's for adjusting the volume. It's for searching channels!
Review of Lada X-Ray Cross 1.6 (113 hp) with CVT 2019
Ground clearance: either 210 mm or 215 mm is a thing. On the very first day, I didn’t notice a small hole-crater with melted snow on the hatch. He drove slowly and fell into it also slowly. I had time to think, is the bottom strong and what will I hit with - the bottom or the arch? Nothing! The wheel found the bottom and calmly, in silence, drove out of this gigantic hole.
The car itself is quite tall. In the first days, when I took my foot out of the car, I was looking for the ground! Where are you down there, dear? My wheels have gift tires 215/50 R17. Rare, unpopular, expensive. They are holding the road. I must say that they perform their function perfectly, except for the sounds they make.
Denis, review of the new Lada XRAY Cross 1.6 (113 hp) CVT 2020.
Specifications
Like the regular version of the model, the 2022 all-terrain Lada X Ray Cross is built on the B0 platform, where an independent suspension with MacPherson struts is installed at the front, and a semi-independent beam at the rear. Interestingly, the chassis uses different springs and shock absorbers, and the ground clearance is raised by several millimeters.
The cross-version of the hatchback has more powerful brakes: they are disc brakes, and they are also ventilated on the front wheels. Plus, the raised XRAY Cross has electric power steering and reach-adjustable steering column.
Note that a car with a manual transmission can be equipped with the “Lada Ride Select” stabilization system with several working presets: normal, sports, winter and for sand. However, if necessary, stabilization can be completely deactivated. The all-terrain Lada X Ray Cross has the following overall dimensions, mm
- Length - 4 165
- Width - 1,764
- Height - 1 645
- Wheelbase - 2,592
- Ground clearance (clearance) - 215
The car has a trunk volume of 361 liters, while the capacity of the compartment with the second row seats folded reaches 1,207 liters. The model has a 50-liter fuel tank, while its curb weight varies from 1,225 to 1,300 kg (depending on the selected engine and equipment level).
- The five-door model is equipped with a 1.6-liter VAZ-21179 engine with a power of 122 hp. (170 Nm) and five-speed manual transmission. With this combination of units, the Lada X Ray Cross is capable of accelerating from zero to hundreds in 10.3 seconds, and its top speed reaches 179 km/h.
- More expensive versions are equipped with a 1.6-liter H4M engine from the Renault-Nissan alliance. It produces 113 horsepower and 152 Nm of torque, working in tandem with a continuously variable transmission. This modification accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 12.3 seconds, and its speed limit is 163 kilometers per hour.

The capabilities of the engines proposed for the Lada X Ray Cross are enough in the city, but on the highway, and even more so on mountain serpentines, there is a clear lack of power. In such conditions, the engine has to be cranked, which inevitably has a negative impact on fuel efficiency.
As for handling, the model’s steering wheel is slightly flimsy, and when cornering at speed, rolls are observed, but overall the hatchback with a 215 mm ground clearance rides and steers quite decently. The car's suspension is expectedly sensitive to small irregularities, but it filters out medium ones so that the road seems better than it actually is. In this regard, the prefix “Cross” in the name justifies itself 100%.
The interior of the new Lada XRAY Cross 2022 is nice, but expectedly simple. The interior features a lot of hard plastic, which can begin to creak over time. Add here the far from good sound insulation with a loud engine and suspension, which means you can forget about silence in the cabin.
The front seats of the “all-terrain” modification are different, with more pronounced lateral support and a different cushion. The seating position in them is comfortable, and even a tall driver (190 cm) can sit comfortably behind the wheel. True, in this case there will be very little space left behind it. The rear sofa in fact remained the same, although its geometric parameters were slightly revised (25 mm of free space was added at the passengers’ feet).
Interesting Facts
The Moscow Motor Show in 2018 became the site of the premiere of the all-terrain hatchback Lada XRAY Cross, a pre-production version of which was shown at the same exhibition two years ago.
From the outside, the Lada XRAY Cross is distinguished by a protective body kit made of unpainted plastic all around, as well as an original front bumper with a fashionable chrome trim along the bottom. The car has roof rails and a fin antenna, the wheels have 17-inch alloy wheels, and the rear bumper is decorated with a silver insert and a dual exhaust pipe.
Initially, in addition to a manual transmission, the car was also offered an AMT robotic transmission, but in the summer of 1919 the car was equipped with a Jatco JF015E continuously variable variator with manual control function.

The energy-hungry chassis absorbs most of the potholes. The manufacturer emphasizes the “Cross” status by fine-tuning the car’s design.
Just by looking at the XRAY you immediately understand what kind of car is in front of you. The balance is felt from the first minutes after entering the cabin, but this result had to be realized, because otherwise there is no point in releasing another urban crossover.
Slight roughness is the description given to the crossover by the manufacturer. It's hard to disagree with this statement. There are not a lot of smooth lines or clear edges.
The exterior is a collection of different design styles. Although the overall picture comes together as an attractive car. Wide arches with not very massive wheels emphasize the main advantage - increased ground clearance.
Technical characteristics of the 2022 model range
Engine on a crossover
All technical specifications are presented in the model with a 1.8 liter engine - this is the only power plant that is available on the market. The 16-valve engine is capable of producing 122 hp. With. The gearbox is expectedly mechanical with 5 gears. The driver is able to squeeze 180 km/h out of the crossover.
A torque of 170 Nm must guarantee dynamic acceleration. The maximum revolutions per minute are up to Mach 3700. Toxicity is equal to pan-European rules - EURO-5.
According to the manufacturer, the acceleration time should not exceed 11 seconds to 100 km/h. It is difficult to ideally achieve such indicators.
As many as 5 driving modes
- ESC On – after starting the engine, this mode is activated by default. It is designed to maximally protect the driver from an accident when driving on roads of questionable quality or in bad weather conditions.
- ESC Off – at 54 km/h the ESC system is switched or, more simply put, turned off (Off). Stability and traction control are disabled.
- Sport - the wheels get more freedom from the traction control system. The gas pedal is actually activated by a light touch, and other modes are deactivated.
- Snow/mud - the drive wheels become the centerpiece for additional load. More wheel slip occurs for the braking system to reduce speed more effectively.
- Sand - the drive wheels are maximally freed from various types of electronic restraint (slippage increases). ABS adapts as much as possible to the effective slipping of the drive wheels.
Other technical information
The crossover itself sits on R17 wheels. Their full definition looks like this: 215/50 R17 (91,H). They look appropriate in the body arches due to the wide dark plastic in the edging. There is no need to replace them with a larger diameter to achieve a better design.
LADA XRAY Cross body technical characteristics (in millimeters):
- height – 1645;
- total length – 4171;
- overall width - 1983 front and 1810 rear;
- the width between the wheels at the front is 1503, and at the rear – 1546;
- length between wheels – 2592;
- ground clearance - 215.
The crossover is known primarily for its ground clearance of 215 mm. This height competes with many foreign SUVs, which are sold at unreasonably inflated prices.
An increase from 195 mm to 215 mm is the only correct solution for the domestic manufacturer in the new line called “LADA XRAY Cross”. This same 20 mm was not enough for many motorists when exiting asphalt onto rough terrain.
Speed bumps, potholes, curbs, ramps and hill drives are just a small part of the freely surmountable obstacles in the updated Lada X-Ray. Definitely suitable for living outside the city or, if necessary, frequently traveling between regions. For residential or commercial use, the Cross model will meet all off-road requirements.
Characteristics of the Lada X Ray Cross model 2022
The new model line differs from the previous version by the increased diameter of the wheel rims, higher ground clearance and plastic body protection.
New body
Having carefully studied the photo, you will notice that the model differs from its predecessor in small details. This is a slightly elevated body position and aggressive design style. The small front end appears more massive thanks to the high and wide hood and X-shaped radiator trim.
The wedge-shaped blocks of the front halogen headlights fit perfectly into the design of the crossover.
The car features sporty side diffusers, a set of paired fog lamps and a large metal-plastic body kit. The side reveals dynamic and vibrant details to car enthusiasts:
- wheel arches have protective inserts;
- many elements of graceful stepped relief;
- three-section windows are characterized by a black perimeter and extended mullions;
- the roof line smoothly turning into the stern.
The plastic body kit performs protective and decorative functions. The crossover status is also confirmed by the details in the rear of the car.
The improved Lada can be distinguished by the following features:
- the spoiler visor has an enlarged format;
- The high tailgate features oval glazing;
- the rear optics have a different shape and are mounted on wide stands.
The wide body kit of the new model has three reflectors. In the cutouts of the shaped metal diffuser there is a pair of exhaust pipes, eyes and a towbar bracket.
