Shmelev did not specify which engines he was talking about. There is a possibility that the engines will be installed on the Lada Azimut crossover and other Lada models.

The head of AvtoVAZ, Maxim Sokolov, noted that, despite the decline in the Russian car market, the company is not stopping work on future projects.

Currently, it is necessary to focus efforts on launching Lada Azimut. The world premiere of the car at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum became a landmark event of this year. The promising crossover on the modernized Lada Vesta platform was very warmly received by the expert community, and now the success of this project depends only on us.
