RCI Service, a tuning company, has announced the completion of work on creating Russia's first turbocharged Lada Largus Cross station wagon, assembled in Tolyatti. The installation of a turbocharger significantly improved the car's dynamic performance.
It should be noted that the standard version of the Largus Cross is equipped with a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated VAZ-21129 engine producing 106 hp and a 5-speed manual transmission VAZ-21807. Acceleration to "hundreds" for the factory model takes 14.3 seconds, and the top speed is 170 km/h. Thanks to a turbine with a boost pressure of 0.7 bar, the upgraded car reaches 100 km/h in 8-9 seconds. At the same time, the peak power increases to 150-170 hp, and the torque reaches 220-240 Nm. The maximum speed increases to 200 km/h.
In the process of modification, the car also received an exhaust manifold made of stainless steel and a reinforced clutch system. RCI Service noted that the "TurboLargus" combines the smooth ride and good traction characteristic of diesel engines with improved acceleration characteristics.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that a collectible example of the Soviet automotive industry VAZ-2103 is being sold for a record price.
