Your question: What is the bolt pattern on Moskvich 2141 Svyatogor?

Many owners are thinking about replacing standard Moskvich-2141 wheels with models from other cars or completely new ones. And the reason here is not only the desire to tune your car, but also the difficulties in finding “original” parts. And in markets and stores today they offer a wide range of products, both new and used, both steel and light alloy. But you need to figure out what kind of wheels can be installed on the Moskvich-2141 so that there is no harm to traffic safety.

The manufacturer gave the following recommendations regarding wheels for Moskvich-2141 . Tire sizes are 165/80 R14, 175/70R14, 185/70R14 and 185/65R14. In this case, steel wheels must have a 5J rim with an ET offset of 45 mm. A 5.5J rim with a 42mm offset is also allowed. Alloy wheels for Moskvich-2141 must have a 5.5J rim and an offset of 37 mm or a 6J rim and an offset of 33 mm. Note that the plant also allows the installation of tires 175/65 R15, as well as 185/65R15. In this case, the wheels must be 5.5J or 6J, and the offset must be 42 mm. It is worth paying attention to one nuance. If wheels are installed on a Moskvich-2141 with a profile width of 185 mm, such a wheel may not be mounted in the “original” fastener for the “spare tire” or in the niche for it.

In addition to the parameters described above, when selecting wheels for Moskvich-2141, mounting holes are also a decisive factor. This machine has 4 mounting holes with a circumference of 108 mm. In addition, it is important that the diameter of the central hole of the wheel rim is about 1-2 mm larger than the diameter of the hub. For the AZLK-2141 car, the latter is 52 mm.

If we talk about the selection of wheels for Moskvich-2141 from foreign cars, then here you can make a whole list of models. It will include Alfa Romeo 75 7th generation, Audi 80, 90, 100 until 1991, Ford Escort, Taunus, Cortina, Scorpio after 1995, Mondeo 1996-2000, Focus 1st generation, Cougar, Fiesta 3, 5 generations, as well as 4 generations until September 2008. In addition, wheels from many models of Peugeot and Citroen, SAAB 9000 1988-1992, Kia Alegro, Porsche 924 are suitable. Naturally, when selecting wheels for Moskvich-2141 , you may encounter the problem of discrepancy between the diameters of bolt or hub holes. The first ones can be drilled out if necessary. If they are more than required, then it is better to refuse such a purchase. In the case of hub holes, if it is larger on the disk than the diameter of the hub, then this is not critical. If it is less, then in this case it is also better not to purchase such disks.

Note that many tuning enthusiasts install wheels on Moskvich-2141 with a larger diameter and with different characteristics than those recommended by the factory. The main problem in this case is that the edge of the rubber does not reach the spring cup of the shock absorber strut of the front wheels, which is the element closest to the wheel. In such cases, replacing the rack with a unit from Moskvich Ivan Kalita can help. There are cone springs and a cup of reduced diameter. You can also upgrade the standard racks. Instead of the cut-off “original” cup, a part from the rear shock absorber of the VAZ-2109 is welded. Springs are selected according to the size and stiffness of the foreign car. But still, it is better to limit the scope of wheel selection to the framework established by the manufacturer.

Finally, we note that when choosing wheels for Moskvich-2141, it is not recommended to experiment with offset. As it increases, the load on the hub bearings increases several times. In addition, the retracement arm changes. This can provoke completely unpredictable changes in the car's handling. Therefore, the disc offset characteristics for Moskvich-2141 should be close to the values ​​​​specified by the factory.

Dimensions of wheel bolts Moskvich 2141

For model 2141, the wheel is attached to the hub using wheel bolts. The number of fasteners depends on the year of manufacture of the model and is presented in the table below.

General fastener dimensions:

  • Number of fastening elements: -;
  • Fastener size: M14x1.5;
  • Mounting hole diameter (PCD): -;
  • Disc offset (ET): -.

Important: the data presented above are the limits of values ​​for all modifications of the car; specific figures depend on the year of manufacture.

Rules for selecting wheel fasteners:

For cast and stamped wheels, different wheel fasteners are often used - this applies to the length of the bolts, since the thickness of different types of wheels can vary significantly.

When selecting any fastener, special attention should be paid to the thread pitch. This parameter is always indicated in the marking after the “x” sign.

Most wheel fasteners have metric fine pitch threads (M12x1.25/M12x1.5/M14x1.25/M14x1.5), which should match the threads of the studs or tapped holes in the wheel hub.

Important: the marking of the M12x1.5 mounting bolt is deciphered as follows: thread with a nominal diameter of 12 (mm), thread pitch 1.5 (mm).

Other names:

In European countries, the Soviet and Russian passenger car of the third group of the small class Moskvich 2141 was sold under the name ALEKO. From 1998 to 2002, a modernized version of the Moskvich 2141-02 (-45, −00, −22, −23, −24, −25) was produced, known under the name Svyatogor.

Years of production Years of production of all modifications of the model: 1986 - 2002.

In such cases, replacing the rack with a unit from Moskvich Ivan Kalita can help.

Which Moskvich 2141 wheels did the manufacturer recommend to buy?

Regarding the wheels for this model, the manufacturer recommended choosing rollers with a rim of 5J and an offset of ET 45. Such parameters are recommended for steel wheels. Undoubtedly, deviations are possible. Allows 5.5J rim and 42mm offset. But it’s worth buying light-alloy wheels for Moskvich 2141 with a rim of 5.5J and ET 37 or 6J and an offset of 33 mm. It is important to note the fact that when choosing new wheels for a car with a profile width of 185 mm, you may not be able to “fit” them into place on the original “spare tire” mount or in a special niche.

In addition to the parameters described above, when you decide to buy Moskvich 2141 wheels, you should pay attention to the mounting holes. This car model has four fasteners, the circumference of which is 108 mm.

Finally, it is important to note that when selecting new wheels for Moskvich, you should not experiment with offset (ET). If this parameter increases several times, the load on the vehicle’s hub will also increase significantly. In addition, the recoil arm also changes, which entails very unpredictable moments in driving. Undoubtedly, it is very difficult to select original wheels, but it is very important to adhere to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The departure characteristics for this Moskvich should be as close as possible to the parameters specified by the manufacturer.

The original equipment from the manufacturer provides for the use of a certain size of tires and wheels. They can be replaced depending on the needs of the owner. You just need to take into account that the bolt pattern of the wheels matches completely.

Experts recommend choosing wheels of a smaller diameter for the cold season. They behave better on ice and snow drifts. But in summer it’s good to set a larger diameter. This means that ideally the car owner should have 2 sets of wheels AZLK 2141 Svyatogor All 1.6 (VAZ 2106) 1997-2001. It is better to select them taking into account the advice of professionals for a given machine model.

Tires and wheels in Tyumen

There are cone springs and a cup of reduced diameter. You can also upgrade the standard racks. Instead of the cut-off “original” cup, a part from the rear shock absorber of the VAZ-2109 is welded. Springs are selected according to the size and stiffness of the foreign car. But still, it is better to limit the scope of wheel selection to the framework established by the manufacturer.

Finally, we note that when choosing wheels for Moskvich-2141, it is not recommended to experiment with offset. As it increases, the load on the hub bearings increases several times. In addition, the retracement arm changes. This can provoke completely unpredictable changes in the car's handling. Therefore, the disc offset characteristics for Moskvich-2141 should be close to the values ​​​​specified by the factory.

In my opinion, a huge amount of material has already been written about the installation of various kinds of non-original wheels on Moskvich 412 series. However, there are often still rather contradictory information regarding which wheels can be adapted for installation on a Moskvich, and for which it is inappropriate to do this... It must be remembered that installing non-original (non-certified for it) wheels on a car is illegal, and , to be fair, really unsafe. Therefore, if you really feel itchy (as, for example, I

) install other wheels, you need to at least approach such tuning responsibly.

I had three reasons for installing non-original wheels: 1. Potentially better characteristics of larger wheels (both in width and diameter) in terms of smoothness and directional stability. 2. Larger wheel diameter, which affects the speed characteristics of the car. 3. Appearance.

The last two motives are purely subjective and personally important to me. The choice initially settled on 14-inch wheels. I initially did not seriously consider the options for 15-inch wheels, because I think that this is too large a size for use on a Moskvich.

So, as you know, standard wheels have the following parameters: landing diameter - 13 inches rim flange width - 5 inches rim shape code - J number of studs x diameter on which they are located - 5 x 115mm offset - 30mm hub hole diameter - 74mm

The task, therefore, was to find the wheels that were closest in parameters, differing only in the landing diameter - 14 inches. The wheel options for Mercedes and BMW cars (including the ''15'' ones) are no longer available, since they have stud diameters of 112 and 120 mm, respectively (at least for the common models known to me). You cannot install such wheels on Moskvich. A variant of wheels from Mazda 626, Xedox 6, Toyota HiAce, Toyota Picnic, etc. has appeared. One of the variants of wheel rims used on these cars has the following parameters:

landing diameter - 14 inches rim flange width - 6 inches rim shape code - J number of studs x diameter on which they are located - 5 x 114.3mm offset - 38mm hub hole diameter - 67mm

There are both stamped steel and light alloy wheels. In addition, they are common enough that they can be easily found for sale. The diameter of the pins is close enough to the original one (the offset of the pins relative to the holes is 0.35mm) so that the difference can be neglected. However, when tightening the nuts, you need to pay attention to the alignment of the wheel. It turned out that the offset of the new wheels was too large, so that the front wheels hit the inside of the upper control arm, and the rear wheels hit the inside of the wheel arch during turns and when the car rolls. Therefore, it turned out to be necessary to order new studs extended by 15 mm (all 20 pieces), and to make spacers for the wheels that increase the track.

Tires and wheels

The car is equipped with radial tube tires measuring 165/80R14 model MI-180, having a 2-layer sidewall frame and a 2-layer metal belt. The tires are equipped with wear indicators in the form of six transverse stripes 1.6 mm high, evenly spaced around the circumference of the tire along the bottom of the tread pattern grooves. When the tread wears down to a height of 1.6 mm, wear indicators appear in the form of six transverse stripes, which indicates the maximum wear of the tires and the need to replace them with new ones.

When replacing tires, wear or failure, the following is unacceptable:

  • install tires of different sizes and models (tires with different types of tread patterns) both on one axle and in pairs along axles;
  • install any other camera other than the UK-14M ​​into the 165/80R14 tire of the MI-180 model;
  • categorically install tires of size 185-14/7.35-14, as well as 205/70Rl4, which have a significantly larger width;
  • replace valve spools of various types of tires with plugs, as well as operate the tire without a protective cap (valve key);
  • remove a tire whose air pressure is higher than the ambient pressure.

The vehicles are also equipped with radial tubeless tires of size 175/70R14. Their use increases the safety of vehicle operation in the event of a sudden tire puncture due to the presence of an internal sealing layer, which slows down the drop in pressure during a puncture. However, the use of tubeless tires places increased demands on the wheel rim (5JX 14H) used on the vehicle. Before installing tubeless tires, the wheel rim must be thoroughly inspected and repaired. After padding, straightening and painting, the rim must be sealed. The landing flanges of the rim and the “stream” located between them should not have any irregularities, nicks, dents, weld beads or paint defects.

The presence of the noted defects can cause a loose fit of the sealing layer, which is also applied to the beads (“heels”) of the tubeless tire, which will lead to depressurization of the tire.

After straightening the rim on the wheel, the radial and lateral runout of the landing flanges should be checked (see Figure 5.26).

A tubeless tire should be mounted in such a way as to prevent the mounting blade from damaging the sealing layer on the beads. Initially, tubeless tires are inflated with a compressor, for example, at car service stations or tire repair shops.

The tire pressure of the front and rear wheels should be 1.9-2.0 kgf/cm². If the tire pressure has decreased and the beads are sitting on the flanges of the wheel rim, then you can inflate the tire with a hand pump. If the tire's internal pressure drops, do not allow the tire bead to move away from the wheel rim flange.

If it is necessary to inflate (in the absence of a compressor) a tire whose beads are not adjacent to the rim flanges, it is recommended to do the following: tie a loop from a strong rope slightly larger than the outer circumference of the tire, and put it on the tire in the middle of the tread pattern; pass some strong rod under the rope and twist it so that the tire sides are pressed tightly against the rim flanges; Gradually inflate the tire and loosen the loop evenly as the tire pressure increases, keeping the tire upright the entire time.

Wheel size for AZLK 2141 Svyatogor

You need to move the wheels outward at least 10-12mm to avoid all problems. For the spacers I used 4mm thick aluminum sheets. There were three spacers for each wheel. The new wheel hub holes are too small to fit onto the front suspension hubs. I had to expand them in diameter by approximately 7-8mm with a grinder - to the required 75mm. After all these alterations, you can drive on new wheels, in my opinion, quite safely. By the way, in the photo in the front I have wheels from a Toyota Picnic, and in the back from a Mazda 626. They are very similar in appearance, but slightly different (the first have 14 slots in the disk, the second have 15). This is by the way.

I used the common tire size 185/65R14. At the same time, the rolling diameter increased by approximately 4% compared to 175/70R13 tires; accordingly, the vehicle speed at a given engine speed increased by the same amount, and accordingly, the acceleration dynamics in a given gear worsened. Subjectively, the ride quality and directional stability have improved significantly. I did not control fuel consumption, but other things being equal (speed, tire pressure, temperature, tread pattern, etc.) it can increase slightly due to an increase in tread width. In my opinion, there are no other factors influencing consumption with new wheels. Please write with suggestions and criticism to [email protected]

Selection of rims for Moskvich 2141

However, popular modern cars are not equipped with wheels of this size. The closest to these indicators are common disks with a PCD of 114.3 mm. Japanese and Korean cars are equipped with such wheels, for example, some Mazda, Mitsubishi, Hyundai models.

The existing difference of 0.7 mm in the diameter of the circle where the fastening bolts are located can be neglected, since each hole is shifted relative to the center by 0.35 mm, which is compensated by the conical fit of the fastening nuts. If the wheel offset is greater - for example, 35 mm, it turns out to be recessed 5 mm into the “depth” of the arches, due to which the low “Moskvich” cutouts (at the rear) do not interfere with the normal rotation of the wheels. It is not recommended to use wider tires, since in this case the gap between the rear wheel and the spring on one side, and the wing on the other, will be unacceptably small. However, finding wheels less than 5.5 inches wide will not be easy, since five-stud hubs today are only equipped with heavy and powerful cars, which are not equipped with narrow wheels.

When purchasing and installing “castings” on “Moskvich” models 412 and 2140, you should take into account that such disks, as a rule, have a large thickness in the mounting plane, so the length of the standard studs may not be enough and you will have to order extended ones from turners. In this case, the operation of fastening the disk should be treated more responsibly, strictly observing the sequence of tightening the nuts according to the “star” pattern. Discs with cylindrical rather than tapered holes may work without stud extensions because their special extended nuts allow them to "grab" the threads deep into the disc. However, their use in this case is undesirable - problems with wheel alignment may arise.

Finally, you need to pay attention to the diameter of the hole for the hub in the disk - the DIA parameter. For “native” Moskvich wheels it is 74 mm, and for many alloy wheels it is less.

As a last resort, in order to seat the disc on the thickened part of the hub, you can chamfer the inside of the hole on the mating plane of the disc or bore the central hole on a machine.

What kind of bolt pattern for Moskvich 412

I would like to install something like 175/80 R13. But I don’t know what wheels to buy for such tires. There are a lot of fights in our city and I think it will be possible to find them, it’s important to know what to look for. And another question: will it be possible to re-roll the previous, standard tires on them?

The catalog is incomplete but it was interesting to look at.

As for the tire size: standard wheels (with a rim width of 4.5 inches) can accommodate tires up to 185 wide (although this is too much, a maximum of 175 is better). So 175/80R13 can be safely installed on “original” wheels (by the way, for some time, instead of M-145, passenger Chizhi cars were equipped with M-154 tires - they are exactly 175 mm wide).

If you want to install any other disks, then the possible options here are:

I. Of the domestic ones - only VILS. At one time, a tiny batch of Zvezda Rally forged light-alloy wheels with holes for the Moskvich hub was produced (115/5 = 5 holes on a diameter of 115 mm). But this is a rarity, and IMHO it’s impossible to find them (although I saw them in Moscow, alas, on someone else’s car, not in a store).

II. From imported ones - what I tried myself. a) From BMW: they don’t even fit on the studs. b) From Mercedes: they fit on the studs, but the cones do not match, i.e. when tightening the nuts there will be problems with alignment. Although I saw (in Moscow) a luxury 2140 on Mercedes wheels with Volgov tires (205/70R14). The view is amazing! It turned out to be such a strong guy. Apparently, even such huge wheels have a place in Moskvich arches. There is one point here: wheels only from old Mercedes (123 body and earlier) are suitable, because the new ones (discs with round holes, like a jig-six) have a very long offset, and on a Muscovite, these wheels with the inner rim touch the handbrake cable guide at the rear and the steering knuckles at the front (checked). c) From American cars: as the salesman at the VILS brand store on Gorbunova Street (not far from the Kuntsevo market) told me, this is the best option. The “American” standard (I don’t know, however, whether all passenger cars have them - most likely not all) - the mounting holes are located on a circle with a diameter of 4.5 inches, or 114.3 mm. This is, as they say, “our favorite size.” And in terms of offset, discs on American cars are doing better - it is smaller, i.e. the wheel protrudes outwards more => less chance of hitting internal parts. So you can try looking at advertisements for the sale of used spare parts for American cars (not necessarily those made in America. You can try from the same Ford Granada (they were made in Europe) - there seem to be 5 holes on the wheels).

PS: The seat size of the wheels does not have to be 13 inches. If you remember, at the very beginning the Muscovites were equipped with R15 tires, so IMHO you can install them up to this size and easily get rid of the screws. Although. Well, you yourself know everything about them.

Wheels of the Land of Soviets: what Muscovites wore

Discs

Tracing its pedigree from Opel, the Moskvich model 400/401 was equipped with narrow 4.50-16 or 5.00-16 tires. Today, such “shoes” are of interest only to restorers. However, it was radically different from other cars of those years in the design of its wheels: the cast-iron brake drum simultaneously served as both the hub and the wheel disk, and the mounting studs were spaced apart to the maximum possible diameter. Therefore, the wheel was actually devoid of a hub and consisted only of a rim with sockets for fastening nuts. The entire structure was covered with a convex chrome cap.

Starting with the 402 model, there was a transition to a smaller diameter, and the seat of the wheel on the hub did not subsequently change for Muscovites until the advent of the front-wheel drive model 2141! This means that “theoretically” any wheel from any rear-wheel drive Moskvich starting from 402 can be installed on any Moskvich up to the late 2140. In practice, a disc brake caliper will prevent this.

In the photo: Moskvich-400 (1, 2), -402, -403 and -410

True, the rim of models 402, 403, 407 and 410 had a diameter of 15 inches, and on later models (408, 412, 2140, etc.) a 13-inch one was used - according to the fashion of that time, the outer diameter of the disk (and tire ) gradually decreased, and the profile width, on the contrary, increased. An interesting point: wheel rims for Muscovites were produced by two factories - GAZ and VAZ, and the wheel with an asymmetrical rim profile for Muscovites, produced at VAZ, differs from the corresponding part for Zhiguli only in the number of holes for bolts and the shape of the hub stamp, and the rim itself is exactly the same!

In the photo: Moskvich-402 and Moskvich-2140

Until 1970, 4J-13 wheels were installed on sedans, and rims increased to 4 ½ inches in width were used on station wagons and vans. After 1970, all cars were equipped with wider wheels. Disks with a symmetrical rim produced by GAZ can be easily distinguished by four ventilation windows, and since 1973, new disks with an asymmetrical rim profile and six oval ventilation holes began to be installed on all Muscovites. In 1980-1981, wheels of the same type, but with a rim width of 5J, were produced by the GAZ plant. Discs with symmetrical rims can only be used on Moskvich vehicles with drum brakes on all wheels.

Since 1982, Moskvich wheels have been produced without three protrusions for attaching the wheel cap. Since the chrome part that covered the entire central part was eliminated, small caps appeared in the central hole instead; on the AZLK-2140 “Lux” model, the hub was covered with plastic caps, “fashionable” at that time, fastened with wheel nuts.

The front-wheel drive Moskvich model 2141 had its own wheels with original parameters. They differed in both the rim diameter (14 inches) and the number of mounting holes (four instead of five). In terms of the bolt-to-bolt distance (4 x 108 mm), the 5J wide wheels with an offset of 45 mm were identical to the Audi part.

Until 1960, Moskvich models 402 and 407 were equipped with M-45 tube tires size 5.60-15, which later became tubeless; The cars were also equipped with tires of the new M-57 and M-59 models.

It is interesting that in the mid-sixties, Muscovites were produced precisely with the “tubeless” tire that is relevant today, but already in the early seventies, they, like the newfangled Zhiguli, began to be equipped with tube wheels. The reason is simple - firstly, speeds increased, so there was a risk of the tire falling off the wheel rim. Secondly, a “tubeless” tire with a soft and low sidewall (which is what 13-inch tires became like) did not tolerate the road surface of that time well.

Until November 1965, the 408 rolled off the assembly line on M-107 tube tires with dimensions 6.00-13, and from November 1965 to 1970 on tubeless tires. The 423 station wagon and 433 van were equipped with “reinforced” M-100 tires with dimensions 6.40-13. It’s not worth putting these harsh “universal” tires on any Moskvich with a sedan body - they are heavier and tougher - this will not bring joy to either the car or its owner.

In the photo: Moskvich-408

Until 1970, the more powerful 412 was equipped with the same M-107 tires, but with additional markings indicating that the rubber was “high-speed,” that is, capable of withstanding prolonged driving at speeds over 120 km/h. At that time, such tires were really considered “high-speed” - it sounds a little funny, but if you remember that the 401st and Pobeda developed only about a hundred kilometers per hour, then the enthusiastic emotions of the drivers of the new products become more understandable.

In the photo: Moskvich-412

In 1970-1978, all Muscovites with a sedan body were produced with diagonal low-profile tube tires measuring 6.45-13 models M-130A and M-119A, and station wagons were equipped with high-profile tires model M-100. On the sidewall of some M-130A tires there was the inscription “prostor” - it is believed that this is rubber for export modifications.

In 1978, the place of outdated models was taken by the more modern “diagonal” M-145. This tire is a real long-liver: it was not only found in the original equipment of rear-wheel drive Moskviches until their production ceased, but is still (!) produced and available for sale! That is why most connoisseurs of stock rear-wheel drive vehicles with the AZLK emblem remain faithful to this model. However, the M-100 “truck” tire also lived a long conveyor life - from 1967, when it began to be installed on Moscow station wagons and vans, and until 2001 (!), when the Izhevsk “pie” model 2715 was discontinued.

But not just “diagonal”: in October 1980, Muscovites began switching to radial tires – steel cord MI-166. Until 1982, “universal” versions still ran on bias-ply tires of the M-145 model with dimensions 6.95-13. However, station wagons and versions for “rural areas” also had more original “shoes”: M-177 from 1978 to 1983 on the “collective farmer” 21406, M-179 on the station wagon 2137 from 1982 and radial tires M-183Ya on 21406 1984. Like the Zhiguli, in the mid-eighties, AZLK cars switched to an improved “radial” model MI-16 with a dimension of 165/80 R13.

That is why Muscovites owners were not spared all the delights of using radial tires, which could fail due to breaker deformation long before the tread wear limit. Alas, soft and “delicate” radial tires were simply not adapted to the realities of Soviet roads and the habits of drivers of those years. The “tire” variety provided various models of rear-wheel drive Moskvich vehicles with the required handling and stability characteristics - of course, in the warm season.

In Soviet times, “Muscovites” faced completely different problems, unknown to the modern motorist: I don’t care about fat – I wish I could live! In the sense that their cars ran on anything - on the most mind-boggling combinations of tires, on “weld-on”... As a result, a flat tire or the need to re-flare a tire during an ordinary trip was not considered something special.

Likewise, drivers of those years did not see a problem with slippery road surfaces on any tires. Of course, the speeds were completely different, but... To be fair, it should be noted that the cars of the Moscow Automobile Plant were able to drive, including fast - for example, if professional athletes were behind the wheel, and the wheels were not “shod” with the supposedly tenacious Soviet “radial” , but in real Dunlop or Goodyear.

The already mentioned 2141 stood out not only with its wheels, but also with its tires. Its 14-inch “custom” format tires had a fairly small width (165 mm) but a high profile (80%). By the way, this is exactly the wheel size (165/80 R14) that the first generation Renault Logan has. In addition to the MI-180 tube tires, the AZLK-2141 was equipped with M-229, BL-85 tires or even imported Goodyear GT-70 tires with a dimension of 175/70 R14.

Moskvich Ivan Kalita, Duet coupe

Probably the strangest model of the late 90s is the Duet coupe, which is a two-seater version of the Kalita.
A budget option was also created based on the “Prince Vladimir” model. Of course, there was no demand for this “miracle”. Probably the strangest model of the late 90s is the Duet coupe, which is a two-seater version of the Kalita. A budget option was also created based on the “Prince Vladimir” model. Of course, there was no demand for this “miracle”. In February 1996, the conveyor was stopped. The following year, the “forty-one” was modernized - the design of the front end changed. The updated car received the name “Svyatogor”. Some of the cars were equipped with a two-liter 113-horsepower Renault F3R engine, familiar from the Renault Laguna. In addition to the engine, Svyatogor acquired an imported clutch and brake booster. But again external factors intervened. The 1998 default hit the plant hard: the purchase of imported components led to huge losses. The agony of the 41st continued.

And even in these conditions, the plant could have a future. Indeed, in the second half of the nineties, Moskvich received the support of the Moscow government. But the plant management failed to properly manage the funds received. Instead of bringing the quality of the 41st to the required level, all efforts were thrown into the appearance of a whole army of “freaks”: “Yuri Dolgoruky”, “Prince Vladimir” and the tacky “Ivan Kalita”, which cost fabulous money. And also a modification of the Duet with a coupe body. But there was no demand. Even from the Moscow government.

The result is logical - production has been steadily declining and by 2001 it had dropped to 800 cars per year. On March 4, 2002, the conveyor was stopped and the power supply to the plant was cut off. No more cars under the Moskvich brand came off the Moscow assembly line. It's a shame, because initially the 41st Moskvich was a very good car. He aimed at an empty niche between the Volga and Samara. It was necessary to establish work with suppliers, improving quality, and bring new engine production to fruition. However, history decreed otherwise, and today Dusters and Captures are assembled on the territory of the former Moskvich. And Moskvich himself joined the list of brands that have sunk into oblivion.
