An informative dashboard, a central console, the presence of various sensors, an on-board computer - these are the main characteristics of the Lada Kalina.

The ventilation system control unit is located high, which creates some discomfort during the operation of Kalina. The front seats are quite comfortable. The rear of the cabin is spacious. The trunk of the Lada sedan is 400 liters. If necessary, you can fold the back row, increasing the dimensions of the luggage compartment.

About the different body types of Lada Kalina

The review would be incomplete without at least briefly mentioning all the modifications of this model. The days when only a sedan was available are long gone. Now Kalina is a functional, technologically advanced and modern car, reflecting the development trends of the domestic automobile industry.

Lada Kalina hatchback

The concept of a “city car” is being mentioned more and more often. For residents of megacities, off-road driving is already a kind of entertainment. Bulky and massive SUVs can cause a lot of inconvenience when driving around the city due to their size and gluttony. Increasingly, for fast movement in the city, people are paying attention to small and maneuverable cars. Such nimble, exclusively city cars include the Lada Kalina hatchback.

Despite its small dimensions, the hatchback looks impressive and reliable. This effect was achieved, perhaps, due to the raised front end with short overhangs. The headlights do not merge with the rest of the front parts and are located at a sufficient distance from each other.

Modest size is not a problem for different drivers; both a fragile girl and an adult man feel equally comfortable behind the wheel. The doors open at almost a 90-degree angle, and the wide openings hint at the versatility of the model. The ceiling is made high, again so that even a tall driver feels comfortable and does not hit his head on the top of the cabin.

The steering wheel is quite ergonomic and has a comfortable grip; the car holds the road well, clearly responding to any turn of the steering wheel. Depending on the configuration, the car can be equipped with an air conditioning system, which allows you to select an optimal and comfortable microclimate.

In front there are soft seats with the ability to adjust the position, with the exception of height. Compared to the first generation, vibration isolation of the interior has been noticeably improved. Such versatility is a huge plus of the Kalina as a city car.

You can also choose a suitable transmission if you wish, this is the good old mechanics from AvtoVAZ or a reliable Japanese four-speed automatic. There are currently only seven body paint shades on sale: in addition to the standard black and white, there are brown, orange, blue, silver and dark gray.

The car can be safely used not only in the city, but also outside it. The suspension is also designed for dirt roads. The car is equipped with three types of engines, differing in power.

Kalina station wagon

It is considered one of the most popular types. Any European or Japanese small car can envy Kalina in terms of fuel consumption, and the cost of a native car is incomparably lower. It is not surprising that many motorists choose a practical station wagon. Compared to the hatchback, the interior is more spacious: three people of average build can fit in the back, and for two people the conditions are completely comfortable, even with headrests installed.

But the main advantage of the station wagon is, of course, its spacious trunk and wide door opening angle. The body design is dominated by smooth lines and minimalism, there is no hint of unnecessary details. As in the previous case, seven body colors are available.

Lada Kalina Cross

The main distinguishing feature of this version is the increased ground clearance, allowing the car to overcome large obstacles like a real crossover. The differences don't stop at ground clearance. The car has a different interior design; the dark finish is complemented by numerous inserts to match the body color. Kalina Cross got the trunk from a station wagon and is perfect for both everyday driving around the city and for trips to the country. This modification can also be distinguished by the black plastic lining on the wheel arches and on the sills.

Lada Kalina Sport

The most expensive and most prestigious modification. Available exclusively in a hatchback body. In order to be called a sports version, this modification of Kalina is equipped with a 118 hp engine. s., allowing you to accelerate to 200 km/h, so the spoiler-wing does not serve an aesthetic purpose at all.

The seats in the cabin have pronounced lateral support, which is not present in previous versions. The car has a modernized suspension that allows it to hold the road perfectly and provide good grip. On Kalina Sport you can easily take any sharp turn at high speed and not be afraid of tipping over. The only drawback is the rather high price compared to all other modifications.

VIN code and body serial number: differences

These are 2 different numbers and most modern cars have both. And ignorance of this is fraught not only with confusion, but also with unnecessary waste of money - unscrupulous police officers can profit from you by discovering an alleged “inconsistency” in the numbers and offering to “solve the problem on the spot” for a certain amount. Therefore, let's figure out how the VIN code and body number differ from each other.

VIN is a unique identification number that is responsible for the entire vehicle. And the body number is only responsible for the body. The VIN always consists of 17 characters, and the body number contains 9-14 characters.

Usually the shorter body number is duplicated in the long identification number, but not always - they can be completely different. They also differ in location. So, if the placement of the VIN code is standard, then the manufacturer can place the body serial number anywhere at its discretion.

Basic configurations of Kalina

Panoramas of the salon

The new Kalina is sold in 3 main trim levels:

• "Standard";
• "Norm";
• "Lux".

In 2012, the price of the Lada Kalina hatchback fluctuated between 300-400 thousand rubles. A station wagon model costs no more than 410 thousand rubles. Sport can only be purchased in the “Lux” configuration. Its initial modification provides for a new on-board computer, front electric windows, central locking with remote control and an alarm system. The Kalina Luxury version has 2 front airbags, PTF, ABS, velvet seat upholstery, heated front seats, electric drive, air conditioning, navigator and other modern devices.

The Lada Kalina “Standard” has a reverse lock. The car is equipped with inertial seat belts, which can be adjusted in height if necessary. Of the main options of this model, the manufacturer identifies:

• immobilizer;
• alarm system with remote control;
• light adjustment;
• throttle valve drive, which is easily adjustable.

Kalina “Norma”, in addition to ABS and the climate system, has front seat airbags. The light sensor greatly simplifies driving at night. Lada Kalina is equipped with a safe parking system, audio system, PTF, moldings, alloy wheels on R14.

Interior design

As for the interior, restyling did not make a revolution, and in general the new Priora is not much different from the usual one, but there are still some features:

• The dashboard has become more informative, new elements have been added. Higher quality plastic was used, the design of the board itself was changed, it began to look much more attractive than before.
• If you purchase the maximum configuration, all the control buttons will be in place, however, when using the basic version of the car, there will be a lot of plugs on the dashboard, not everyone will like to see them, however, the panel itself is standard, so if desired, the purchased Priora can then be supplemented with the necessary equipment, and the buttons will be where to put.
• The seats have not become wider, so if you have a large build, it may not be very comfortable to sit. The front seats have several settings and are manually adjustable.
• The quality of the upholstery has improved, but the fabric used is rather rough. This is done in order to increase its wear resistance without increasing the price of the car.
• The build quality is unlikely to please you; don’t be afraid of extraneous creaks or large uneven gaps. The plastic does not fit tightly everywhere and can creak in places. All parts are plastic, no aluminum or wood inserts are provided even in the standard configuration.
• The rear seats cannot be adjusted; it is worth noting that there is quite a bit of space in the back, and it is not very comfortable to sit if you are tall.
• But the sound insulation of the car has become much better; the engine and tire noise are almost inaudible.
