Lada Granta That Never Was: AvtoVAZ to Start Producing Versions with a CVT

Two test vehicles have already rolled off the company's assembly line

AvtoVAZ is preparing to release an updated Lada Granta. The car will receive a CVT.

Last week, 2 prototypes of the Lada Granta car, equipped with a 106 hp engine and a CVT, rolled off the assembly line. The first steps in the chain of putting a new version of the car into production have been taken.

Previously, CVTs from the Chinese manufacturer WanLiYang were installed on Lada Vesta, Aura, and Iskra models. They were used as a replacement for the Japanese Jatco transmissions that had left the Russian market.

AvtoVAZ previously produced Lada Granta only with a 5-speed "mechanics" or an AMT robotic gearbox. It is not yet known when the two-pedal models will go on sale.

Earlier www1.ru reported that AvtoVAZ launched sales of comfortable Lada Granta Club and Quest.
