Yes, they are back….not in Malaysia as yet….Lada has a new compact sedan and its called the Sport Vesta. This new Lada Sport Vesta is offered in only one level of equipment, ‘Luxe’.
Among the available equipment includes, stabilization system, air conditioning, cruise control, multifunction steering wheel, profiled front seats, rain & light sensors and a decent audio system. The optional Multimedia Pack also brings a multimedia navigation system, a rear camera and a heated windscreen.
This ‘Sport’ version comes with a lower weight, a different aerodynamic exterior kit, a modified suspension with a ground clearance of 31 mm and 17-inch wheels with low profile tires, sports seats, perforated leather steering wheel and more.
Under the “Sports” hood sits a 1.8-liter and 4-cylinder engine that produces 145hp and 184Nm of torque working with a 5-speed manual gearbox. This front-wheel drive car can accelerate from standstill in just 9.6 seconds with a maximum speed of 193km/h. No right hand drive version yet, so no Malaysian arrival date yet.
