AvtoVAZ was definitely lucky with the choice of model for localization. Large, reliable, time-tested and cheap, it will definitely be super popular in Russia. The most expensive version of the future bestseller from the car dealership was checked by a Bibika.Ru columnist on the move.

Appearance of Lada Largus - photo

Test drive Lada Largus We, of course, started with the show. Externally distinguish Largus by Dacia Logan MCV not difficult, at least from the front. VAZ, in essence, replaced only one part in the appearance of the honored European hard worker, but quite noticeable - the radiator grille. Paradoxically, from my point of view, the Togliatti designers did it better than the French ones. There is space left between the grille itself and the headlights, and this makes the car more harmonious and... strict, or what?

If you look at new from behind, then only brand nameplates can give away Russian origin. The lights, bumper outlines and other details are unified with the Dacia Logan MCV. And I think this is right. AvtoVAZ found a middle ground: they added one bright detail to the car for identification, and left everything else untouched. Firstly, for the sake of economy, and secondly because everything looks pretty decent anyway. Yes, new does not shine with bright designer finds. But is this really necessary for a budget family car?

Salon Lada Largus

Meanwhile, test drive Lada Largus continued in the salon. Inside, everything also reminded us of kinship with Renault Logan. And again, the VAZ team managed to redo some small things quite successfully. Silver plastic inserts along the edges of the center console, as well as around the instruments and block warning lamps They somewhat enliven the dull “Loganov” interior, which is good news. In addition, in Lada Largus I definitely like the design of the button block between climate control system and a tape recorder. The “emergency warning light” turned out to be round, and the niches for the two pairs of other buttons were made separate.

This layout is much nicer than on the restyled Logan and Sandero, where, due to the desire to refresh the appearance for a minimum of money, the center console turned into something ridiculous. The obvious disadvantage of the interior, in my opinion, is the black glossy plastic. Maybe to some it will seem like an element of solidity... But do not forget that such plastic quickly becomes covered with fingerprints, dust and scratches, which is why it looks dubious on sunny days. True, the test car presented by the auto center was in the “Lux” configuration (until the beginning of 2013 there will be no other Largus on the market). Cheaper versions will not have glossy plastic.

A few words about the audio system. Logans from the factory were equipped with only two front speakers and absolutely disgusting Blaupunkt radios, which did not accept MP3 files in any form, did not read discs well in the cold, often “glitched” and produced very mediocre sound. There are four speakers in the cabin (one in each of the doors), and the radio does not have any inscriptions on the body. Of course, it is difficult to understand how reliable it will be in use, but the good news is that it has a USB port, an aux input, and the ability to play mp3 discs. Probably, audiophiles would criticize the sound, but to me, as an average motorist, albeit with a musical education, it seemed quite pleasant.

Armchairs Lada Largus

Separately, I would like to thank AvtoVAZ for the seats new- they also differ from “Loganov” in better side. The driver has the ability to adjust the seat height and even lumbar support! There is even heating, although it can only operate in one intensity mode. The backrest recline handle has become noticeably easier to operate. However, the old problem of a too short pillow remains unresolved: the legs still hang in the air, which is why they get tired quickly.

In the back, as you might guess, there are separate seats. However, the pillows are flat, and therefore on the second row of the chair it forms the same level sofa as on Logan, on which three of us can sit very comfortably. The design of the headrests is more modern and comfortable. True, the rear door handles remained just as defective. However, such a design is justified not only by considerations of economy: full-fledged handles would interfere with folding the seats.

And since we’re talking about folding seats, it’s worth talking separately about the third row of seats. He is, as they say, honest. Two adult men can sit there without any problems - we conducted the experiment during test drive Lada Largus with the help of two members of the newly formed club. One of the “test subjects” was 185 cm tall, and the second was 195 cm tall. Both were able to calmly climb in there and sit there for a while, without complaining about their hard lot.

The inhabitants of the gallery will have three main problems: the need to keep their knees slightly raised, a certain tightness in the shoulders and a seat belt that stretches from the ceiling to the central passenger of the second row, exactly between the two passengers of the third. True, the distance to the back of the seats, and even more so to the ceiling, is considerable. In addition, the “rearmost” passengers are provided with a heater air duct (there is no such thing in the Dacia Logan MCV) and niches for glasses or bottles in the armrests. So you can go and feel like a human being.

Trunk Lada Largus

When all three rows of seats are folded down, the trunk volume is very, very modest - according to the passport, only 135 liters. When traveling with seven of you, you will have to worry about buying a roof box, since there are no roof rails. However, the third row folds up very quickly and easily, and if desired, it can be removed altogether. Fortunately, two interconnected chairs weigh 16 kilograms, and to dismantle them you don’t need to unscrew any bolts: just loosen two latches. Another obvious advantage of the design is the hinged doors, which can be opened either 90 or 180 degrees.

However, there was also an obvious flaw: the bracket on which the third row is attached when unfolded is not made flush, but sticks out above the flat floor. Thus, a wide refrigerator or washing machine You can’t just put it in the trunk - you’ll have to put something under it so as not to leave dents on the cargo. Finally, I note that judging by the passport data, the trunk volume with the third row folded will be 560 liters, and with the second row folded and the third taken out - 2350 liters.

Trunk dimensions of Lada Largus

Spare wheel Lada Largus

A spare tire under the bottom is common for high-capacity vehicles. There is a certain meaning in this. If something happens on the road, you won’t have to take out all the luggage and disembark passengers in order to remove the spare tire from the niche. However, you need to be prepared to get a little dirty. Thank God, the mounting bolt can be unscrewed from the trunk - it is located under the carpet near the door. But if you think that after this the spare tire will come to you on its own using some tricky hydraulic drives (like on Chevrolet Orlando, which we tested in winter), you are mistaken. You will have to reach under the bottom with your hands and feel for the latch there, and then literally climb there and remove the wheel from the “cradle”.

Driving Lada Largus

Of course test drive Lada Largus also included small sea trials. So, in motion the car is almost the same as Logan. True, the sound insulation here seems to be better. The gearbox strokes also seem to have become shorter. Although perhaps the point is that I compare my feelings from Lada Largus with a three-year-old Renault Logan, and not with a new one. The suspension, as expected, is very pleasing with its elasticity and energy intensity, while the handling is Largusa- quite lightweight. Even when arcing at a speed of 80-90 km/h, you don’t feel any serious rolls. You won't be able to drive this car actively, but overall it won't disappoint.

On test drive was equipped with a Renault 1.6-liter 16-valve engine, well known to Russians from Logan and Sandero. Until licensed production has been established at AvtoVAZ, it is supplied to Togliatti from a plant in... Portugal. Just like in Logan, you can only fill gasoline with octane number not lower than 95. Those who want to “eat” the AI-92 can be advised to take a closer look at the version with an 8-valve engine.

In passing, I note that the gas tank cap has lost its lock. In a certain sense, refueling has become more convenient, but we should not forget that in some regions of our vast country, the problem of fuel drainage is still relevant today.

Lada Largus - prices

Usual for test drives on Bibika.Ru, the heading “Comparison with competitors” V test drive Lada Largus there won't be. For one simple reason: this car has no competitors, at least not on Russian market. Judge for yourself: the cheapest cargo van will cost from 319 thousand, and the most expensive seven-seat version at “ full minced meat"- 449 thousand. Prices for other micro- and minivans in our country usually start from 700 thousand rubles. Seven-seat versions already cost close to a million.

Manufactured Lada Largus cars are equipped with two types of engines - 8 and 16 valves. Even in the basic configuration, the car is equipped with an airbag, a single integrated key that not only turns on the ignition, but also controls the doors and trunk lid, which is certainly convenient for a potential buyer. Engines meet standards exhaust gases in accordance with Euro-4.

The assembled dimensions of the Lada Largus trunk are simply impressive. Its volume is 560 liters with the rear row seats folded.

The curb weight of the Lada Largus without a driver and luggage, depending on the type, ranges from 1186 to 1294 kilograms, the payload is from 515 to 555 kilograms, for a van - 800 kilograms.

The manufacturer has announced the following color options for this car model. The passenger station wagon can be painted in colors such as metallic (Basalt Gray, Diplomat, Phoenix Platinum, Cashmere, Centaur and Venus), as well as glacial. When releasing batches of taxis, a yellow color is possible. The vans, in addition to glacial and several metallic options, are also available in sea and ruby ​​colors.

LADA Largus has long won the sympathy of Russian car enthusiasts. Drivers often pay attention to the large trunk volume of the Lada Largus, which is considered the main advantage of this car. Domestic cars also cope well with another task - providing inexpensive and comfortable travel on modern roads. These two aspects and the ability to accommodate a large number of passengers allowed the car, produced at the Russian AvtoVAZ, to become a popular model in the CIS countries.

The dimensions of the Largus trunk depend on the body variation, it can be:

• station wagon;
• van;
• minivan.

Each car variation has its own luggage compartment volume. In a station wagon designed for 5 seats, the volume of this compartment is 700 liters. But the owner of this model can transport a large load. In the Lada Largus station wagon, the trunk volume can be increased to 1500–1800 liters by removing the second row of seats - a three-seater sofa. With the seats folded down, the station wagon's luggage compartment volume increases to 2,350 liters.

F90

The largest van. In this variation of the car there is no back row of seats, and sometimes even two, and the body is elongated. Officially, the van's trunk capacity is 2,500 liters. The main task of the model is to transport goods, so there are no additional components or elements inside the body.

The van has a reinforced suspension, as this model is designed for transporting large cargo. Station wagons do not have this option.

Cross

The smallest trunk size is in the Largus minivan, designed for 7 seats. The Largus Cross trunk reaches a volume of 200 liters. The manufacturer helped car owners by allowing them to increase the volume of the luggage compartment in liters to 1600–1800, for which two rows of seats should be removed.

The seven-seater version (minivan) has the most “modest” luggage compartment. But the manufacturer met his loyal customer halfway and endowed this modification with a simple secret: it is also possible to increase the luggage space to the same 1600–1800 liters by performing an identical operation to dismantle the stern seats. To do this, you will need to remove two planting rows.

Of course, neither a station wagon nor a minivan are designed to transport large loads, but if necessary, they will cope with this task perfectly.

Luggage compartment dimensions

Based on the above, we can conclude that the dimensions of the luggage compartment of any version of the Lada Largus are quite impressive. The general dimensions of this compartment for the models are as follows:

• opening height is 920 mm;
• the opening width is 980 mm;
• the height of the luggage compartment to the ceiling is from 870 to 930 mm for universal models and up to 1000 mm for a van;
• trunk length is 480–1570 mm for station wagons up to the 3rd and 2nd row of seats;
• The length of the van's luggage compartment is 1800 mm to the dividing wall;
• luggage compartment width – 1000–1450 mm.

Advantages and Disadvantages

To make the right decision, you need to study not only the advantages, but also the disadvantages of the model. The owners, who have extensive experience in operating Largus, found one drawback. The car manufacturer did not adjust the interior of the station wagons in such a way that their owners would have the opportunity to transport large loads. If the driver nevertheless decided to load a large object into his car, then the cargo often caused damage to the interior.

Otherwise, Lada Largus owners are satisfied with everything in their cars. Among the advantages of a Russian car are the following:

• ease of loading;
• optimal dimensions;
• the ability to increase trunk capacity by removing the seats;
• high load capacity;
• possibility of modernization.

Drivers universally note the practicality and convenience of the LADA Largus trunk. Its size is enough to demonstrate functionality domestic car, which allowed him to become a leader among his closest competitors. The manufacturer managed to competently and rationally approach the arrangement of the body space, which allows Largus to successfully transport large objects and indicates the enviable carrying capacity of the model.

Salon Lada Largus Cross will delight its owner with bright orange inserts, which are the main distinguishing feature, of course, if you compare the Cross version with the regular Lada Largus station wagon. Let us tell you right away that the Largus Cross modification has three rows of seats, that is, it is a 7-seater car.

Perhaps the cabin capacity and trunk volume Largus Cross are the main advantages of the car, except for the large ground clearance. So if you fold the two rear rows of seats, the loading volume will be 2350 liters. If you fold only the third row, the trunk volume is 560 liters. In the 7-seater version of the Largus Cross, the luggage compartment is purely symbolic and amounts to 135 liters.

In principle, the interior of the new Largus Cross is no different from the luxury version of the regular Largus. Inside this car you will find power windows, air conditioning, a comfortable ceiling shelf above the passengers' heads, and the center console has a built-in audio system (FM, CD, MP3, AUX, USB, Bluetooth, Hands free). The front seats are heated. The third row of seats can be easily removed if necessary, without the use of any tools. Don't forget about all kinds of pockets and cup holders. Generally fabric salon Lada Largus Cross very practical. The plastic inside the car is also very good and fits without large gaps.

When buying a Lada-Largus in any body and interior layout, car enthusiasts have two main tasks: the first is to organize comfortable and inexpensive travel on the roads of our vast country, and the second is to obtain a vehicle with a large luggage compartment and good carrying capacity. As practice shows, the model succeeded in both of the presented plans, thanks to which it was able to gather a large army of fans throughout the CIS.

A number of articles on our resource discuss in detail all the components and features of the Lada-Largus, with the exception of one thing - the luggage compartment of the car. In today’s material, this shortcoming will be corrected, or rather, we will highlight in all details the concept of the model’s trunk, its volume and compare it with its competitors. Well, let's get started.

Trunk of Lada-Largus: basic characteristics

Many car enthusiasts know that the Lada-Largus is available in three body styles:

• standard station wagon (5-seater);
• high-capacity station wagon or minivan (7-seater);
• van (2-seater).

As standard, each model variation has a certain trunk volume. Most large trunk on Largus near the van, which is not surprising at all. The luggage compartment in this version of the model is increased, primarily due to the absence of one or two sofas for passengers, as well as due to the enlarged body as a whole. According to official information The trunk volume of the Lada-Largus in a van body is about 2500 liters. This model is devoid of any unnecessary elements in the cabin and luggage compartment, as it is intended for the transportation of large-sized cargo.

The next variation of the model in size is a standard station wagon, which has 5 seats for passengers and the driver. The standard trunk volume of this car is 700 liters. However, if you want to transfer a fairly large load, any owner of the model can dismantle the second row of seats (3-seater sofa), thus increasing the luggage compartment to 1500-1800 liters. Of course, a station wagon of this type is not intended for cargo transportation, but if necessary, it can be used for this.

The Largus minivan variation has the smallest trunk volume. Due to the fact that the model is equipped with as many as 7 seats for passengers and the driver, the luggage compartment has a capacity of about 200 liters. But here, too, there is a trick: without any problems you can dismantle the 2-seater and 3-seater sofa, which allows you to increase the trunk to the same as that of a standard station wagon with a similar procedure, 1500-1800 liters.

Despite this functionality of the Lada-Largus interior and, in particular, the trunk of the model, it is worth understanding that station wagon versions have slightly smaller dimensions and are not intended for transporting large cargo. Considering this fact, we can state: they cannot be used for frequent transportation of large items. And it’s inconvenient to remove the seat set every time, although, by the way, this manipulation in the Lada-Largus is carried out extremely simply.

Important! In addition to the special design of the body and interior, the Largus van body is additionally equipped with reinforced suspension, since its main purpose is to transport heavy luggage and not in small volumes. “Universal models” cannot boast of this.

In general, the luggage compartment of the Lada-Largus has the following dimensions (data presented in mm):

• trunk opening height - 920;
• trunk opening width - 980;
• height to ceiling - from 870 to 930 for station wagons and about 1000 for a van;
• width inside the luggage compartment - from 1000 at the level of the arches to 1450 at the level of a person’s shoulders;
• trunk length from the opening to the 3rd row/up to the 2nd row for station wagons - 480/1570;
• the length from the trunk to the dividing wall of the van is about 1800.

As you can see, the dimensions of the Lada-Largus trunk are quite impressive.

Comparison with competitors

By its nature, Lada-Largus has few analogues on the Russian market and the CIS car market. This is largely due to the weak demand for the B-class in the post-Soviet space. Despite this, it is quite possible to highlight some parallels and compare a number of similar models in terms of cargo transportation.

First of all, we note that among the most popular competitors and analogues of the Lada-Largus in the CIS there are simply no such load-lifting models. Just think, but the brainchild of AvtoVAZ capable of transporting up to 800 kilograms in its “van” variation and about 650 kilograms in the “station wagon” variations. None of Largus’ competitors can boast of such data. Moreover, on average, among analogue cars, the load capacity ranges from 450 to 650 kilograms, which, frankly speaking, is not much.

In terms of capacity and overall size of the luggage compartment of the Lada-Largus, everything is not so rosy. Yes, the car is not a clear outsider in this regard, but it is not among the leaders either. A similar trend is clearly visible in the comparative table below:

Despite this, two positive features of the model can be highlighted in favor of the Lada-Largus relative to today’s comparison:

• convenience in terms of loading luggage: wide opening of the trunk door and side doors (up to 180 degrees) - something no competitor can boast of;
• price category, which is usually lower than that of its main competitors.

Important! In the totality of all the indicators characterizing the “luggage issue” between the Lada-Largus and its competitors, the Russian model may be inferior in some places, but overall it looks extremely worthy and can quite rightly be called one of the most functional in this regard.

Pros and cons of the luggage compartment of the Lada-Largus

Summarizing the review of the Lada-Largus trunk, it would be useful to consider its advantages and disadvantages, which are noted by the owners of this model. Surprisingly, car enthusiasts point out only one drawback to the luggage compartment of a car, and that applies exclusively to variations in the station wagon body. More precisely, many car owners do not like the fact that the interior of these model variations was not adjusted well enough for the possible transportation of large cargo. There are often cases when careless transportation damaged some elements of the interior. Otherwise, all Lada-Largus owners only praise the trunk of their car.

Having highlighted the main advantages of the luggage compartment of the Russian model, our resource has compiled the following list of them:

• previously mentioned - convenience in terms of loading luggage;
• excellent dimensions;
• ease of expanding the size of the compartment by easily removing the seats;
• good load capacity of the machine;
• absence of unnecessary elements in the compartment decor;
• simplicity and general literacy of the layout;
• possibility of modernization.

Regardless of the area of ​​use of their car, most Lada-Largus owners are satisfied with its luggage compartment. In general, there are only positive reviews about the trunk of the model.

As you can see, the dimensions of the luggage compartment of the Lada-Largus are quite large and convenient for use. of this car. Together with a competent layout and general principles construction of the trunk, the model in terms of cargo transportation manifests itself exclusively with positive side. Definitely, regarding this parameter of the machine, it can be recommended for purchase. We hope the material presented above was useful to you. Good luck on the roads!
