Russian entrepreneur Ivan Sukhar has received a patent for a modified VAZ-2109 "Sputnik" (better known as "devyatka"), as confirmed by materials in the database of the Federal Institute of Industrial Property.
With its angular shapes, the VAZ-2109 resembles the American electric vehicle Cybertruck, developed by Elon Musk's Tesla. The patent application also indicates that the "devyatka" will be released in an electric version.
Prior to this, Ivan Sukhar received a patent for a VAZ-2104, created in a similar style. There is no information yet on who will be involved in the production of such a car.
The VAZ-2109 was developed by engineers at the Volga Automobile Plant. It was mass-produced from 1987 to 2004. Later, a modified version of the "devyatka" was assembled at the Ukrainian enterprise ZAZ.
Earlier, the sons of the Soviet designer Gennady Khainov decided to unfreeze the "Limpopo" electric car project, which was frozen during their father's lifetime.
