Lada Largus is the first station wagon produced by AvtoVAZ. It was created to eventually replace the Renault Logan MCV model on the Russian market (as well as in CIS countries). The name Largus, which means "generous" in Latin, emphasizes the versatility of the car.
The idea of producing an inexpensive multi-purpose station wagon had long been in AvtoVAZ's plans, but it was only realized after the French company Renault became a shareholder in 2010. The project was named "R90." In 2011, a trial batch was assembled and underwent extensive road tests in various climatic zones of Russia. That same year, the new model was shown to the public at the Moscow International Automobile Salon.
Serial production of the Lada Largus started in 2012. These high-clearance station wagons are built on the global B0 platform, the same as the Renault Logan MCV. Externally, the Largus almost completely replicates the Romanian-French station wagon. Differences are only noticeable in the design of the radiator grille and front bumper.
Official deliveries to Ukraine began at the end of 2012. The car was offered in both passenger and cargo-passenger versions. The passenger version was produced in two variants: five or seven seats. In the five-seat modification, the trunk volume is 560 liters, and in the seven-seat version, it is 139 liters. The car is equipped with 1.6-liter engines that differ in the number of valves (8 or 16), as well as in power and torque. The engines are only paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. An automatic transmission is not available. Drive — front.
