Vesta SW and SW Cross design
Many people think that the body of a station wagon should have a rather modest appearance, but in this case this is not the case at all. New AvtoVAZ cars are initially positioned as dynamic, fairly fast and stylish car models, and not the station wagons familiar to many for transporting various cargoes.
The letters SW, which should directly indicate that these car models have a universal body, are only present in the name of the car - they are not on the body.
Salon of new VAZ products
The interior of the new car model is also quite sporty and made of high-quality and reliable material. The fairly deep seats are made in a sporty design style with drawings in the form of the letter X.
The interior has a multifunctional steering wheel, which can be configured in the most convenient way for the vehicle owner. The salon is quite spacious and comfortable. It has a large number of additional elements that are aimed at improving the comfort of the car driver and his passengers.
Dimensions of the new body Lada Vesta SW and SW Cross
The body of new car models from AvtoVAZ has an average length of 4410 mm and a width of 1764 mm, as well as a wheelbase of 2635 mm. The ground clearance of the new Lada Vesta SW model is 178 mm, and the ground clearance of the SW Cross model is 203 mm, which is quite high for a station wagon.
The development of these car models at the manufacturer is carried out by a special group of qualified designers, led by Steve Mattina. The station wagons of the new model turned out to be quite stylish and somewhat compact when compared with previous car models from AvtoVAZ.
Modern interior and luggage compartment
Inside the car you can see a multifunction steering wheel with three spokes, beautiful “wells” of the instrument panel and a nice center console on which a seven-inch display of the multimedia system is located. The climate system control unit is installed just below. The all-terrain version of the station wagon differs from the basic version in bright inserts on the front panel, dashboard and seats.
The amount of free space in the car’s interior is not satisfactory; it is designed to comfortably seat five people. The front seats have pronounced lateral support and impressive possibilities for choosing the optimal position. The second row has a comfortable sofa, in the middle of which there is a folding armrest. Even heating is available for an extra charge.
Another bright new product of the company is Lada Vesta Exclusive. Do not miss!
The trunk volume of the Lada Vesta SW Cross is 480 liters (like a regular station wagon). It can be increased to 825 liters by folding the rear backrest (you won’t be able to get a perfectly flat floor).
Configurations of new Lada models
The new Lada Vesta SW Cross model is equipped with large 17-inch wheels, which are made of high-quality light alloy material with R17 tires installed. The entire perimeter of the body is trimmed with a plastic body kit made of a durable and fairly reliable material to use. Car bumpers have stylish and durable inserts. The car's clearance is quite large and amounts to 203 mm.
Both Vesta SV and SV Cross models will appear on the automobile market in various trim levels. The standard equipment of these cars has ABS, ESP, a reliable airbag for the driver and a computer. A functional and practical central locking with remote control is installed, and the car is also equipped with electric windows and power steering.

New station wagon models from AvtoVAZ have 4-cylinder gasoline engines and are perfectly combined with a 5-speed manual transmission (2180) and a 5-speed gearbox (AMT-2182). The engines of new car models from the AvtoVAZ manufacturer are quite powerful and are able to perform well when driving a car under difficult load conditions.
A basic 1.6-liter engine (106 l/s with 148 Nm) and a powerful 1.8-liter engine (122 l/s with 170 Nm). It is worth noting that such an important point is that the presented station wagons of the new model are equipped with both front and rear disc brake systems.

Last month, sales of a new station wagon from AvtoVAZ started - Lada Vesta Cross SW. Judging by the reviews, the car turned out to be really good. And they turned out very juicy. I can’t say that this is a breakthrough, but the level and quality have clearly increased compared to previous models. This article will not contain any arguments about whether this car is good or not. Let's consider only the main technical characteristics of the Lada Vesta Cross SW. Let's start, let's start with the exterior.
Detailed technical characteristics of Lada Vesta Cross SV
The technical specifications sheet for the LADA Vesta Cross SW was taken from the official Lada website. But the same information can be found in
The new AvtoVAZ model promises to “blow up” the Russian station wagon market, becoming the most affordable car in this body type, not counting the Lada Kalina. The cost of Vesta SW has not yet been disclosed, but judging by the pricing in the line of modifications of the same Kalina, the additional payment for versatility will be more than reasonable. We assume that the new product will be 20-30 thousand more expensive than the sedan. If our expectations are met, then Vesta, which is already selling well, will have a chance to become a bestseller on the Russian market.
What is the new station wagon? In terms of design, this is an undoubted success of the “Varyag” team of Steve Mattin. The new product looks very harmonious, and small touches, in the form of a plastic trim on the rear pillar, visually “breaking” the connection with the roof and giving this very pillar a resemblance to a shark fin (“the shark” theme is also supported by the “fin” of the antenna on the roof), emphasize attention to the details.
In terms of dimensions, the Lada Vesta SW fits exactly into the framework of a platform sedan, so the trunk, whose volume has not yet been revealed, is unlikely to be much larger than that of the 4-door version. Only the height of the body differs - in the regular version of the station wagon, one and a half centimeters are “plus” with roof rails (black for SW, and silver for SW Cross), and in the “off-road” version another two and a half centimeters are added to the ground clearance, increased from the standard “West” 17.8 cm up to 20.3 cm.
Other external differences of the Lada Vesta SW Cross include standard 17-inch alloy wheels, a protective “skirt” of unpainted black plastic around the perimeter of the body and original bumpers with imitation steel protection (the rear one has a cutout for a chrome “double-barrel” muffler tip). By the way, due to the body kit and other bumpers, the “off-road” version has become almost two centimeters wider and one and a half longer.
There are no photos of the interior yet, but the Vesta SW Cross will probably be decorated with colored inserts on the seats, front panel and doors (orange trims are visible in some photos of the exterior). This set of additional features certainly makes the model’s appearance brighter, but will affect the price. According to our modest estimates, the buyer will have to pay at least 50 thousand extra for the “off-road” body kit and other tinsel. But, you must admit, it’s worth it!
Serial production of the station wagon will start this summer, and sales will begin in September-October. Moreover, most likely, the regular Lada Vesta SW will be the first to enter the market, and a month later it will be joined by the SW Cross version. The new products will correct some of the shortcomings of the Vesta sedan: in particular, all station wagons will receive an external trunk opening button, as well as a lockable gas tank flap.
