At the international industrial exhibition "Innoprom-2026" in Yekaterinburg, AvtoVAZ presented the Lada Azimut crossover in a new blue color "Serenade". The car became one of the novelties of the exposition. The shade is a rich blue color, similar to solutions previously used on Russian versions of Hyundai Creta, with a characteristic combination of a blue body and a contrasting rear pillar.

Sales of Lada Azimut are scheduled to start in the fourth quarter of 2026. AvtoVAZ head Maxim Sokolov previously announced that at launch, the model will be offered with three gasoline engines: naturally aspirated engines with volumes of 1.6 and 1.8 liters producing 122 and 135 hp, as well as a new 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with 150 hp.

The company also continues to develop a hybrid modification of the Azimut. According to Maxim Sokolov, the new version will receive all-wheel drive and a power plant with about 390 hp (290 kW).

The car will be able to accelerate to 100 km/h in 5.7 seconds, and the range without refueling will be up to 1100 km.
