The steering rack from the VAZ 2110 and VAZ Kalina are the same or

VAZ-2110

VAZ-2110 (LADA 110) is a front-wheel drive sedan designed by AvtoVAZ on the G8 platform. A few years later, the Lada model range was supplemented with a station wagon and a hatchback of the tenth family (2111 and 2112).

In addition to smoother body contours and improved aerodynamic characteristics, the 4-cylinder concept from the Volzhsky plant received an adjustable steering wheel, gas hood supports and climate control. At the time of the “ten”’s release, it surpassed many foreign cars in operational and technical indicators. An important advantage is increased body rigidity.

In the first years of production, VAZ-2110s were equipped with carburetor engines. With the beginning of the 2000s, the plant switched to a 1.5-1.6 liter .

The specific body design of the tenth model caused criticism from auto experts. Among drivers, it received the nickname “matryoshka” because of its rounded shape combined with an angular rear and excessively large gaps between the body elements. However, thanks to good streamlining, the car has become quite economical. Despite the factory galvanization of body parts, the car owner still has to do anticorrosive work.

Lada Kalina or VAZ 2110? my comparison

I decided to remember my youth, when I was still the owner of the top ten in our village. Sometimes I even miss her a little, nostalgia comes flooding back. So, now, as you already understand, I am the owner of a Lada Kalina Universal. And I would like to compare these cars adequately, without any reproaches.

After I bought myself a Lada Kalina, it seemed that it didn’t drive at all compared to the VAZ 2110. But still, you shouldn’t judge it so harshly. Firstly: the Ten was a 16-valve with a 92-horsepower engine, and my Kalina with a conventional eight-valve engine is 81 hp, and it has only traveled 1000 km, the engine is not yet running at full power, while the pistons have rings didn't get used to it.

At first it was unusual to get into my station wagon, the seating position was very high compared to the tenth model, but now I just can’t get enough of it. You sit as if in an SUV, you look down on everyone, and the visibility is better because of this. And yes, as for the view, it is much better on Kalina, especially the huge rear-view mirrors are pleasing. Parking becomes a pleasure.

As for comfort while driving, here my Station wagon has an advantage, it is very quiet in the cabin even at a speed of 120 km/h, there is no engine noise or wind whistle. But I can’t say the same about the VAZ 2110. And there are a lot more extraneous sounds in the top ten, creaks, rattles, something is always rattling here and there.

Kalina's ground clearance is much greater; it drives on snow and bad roads much more confidently than the Lada of the tenth family. This is important for me, since our winters are snowy and I often have to travel through villages where the roads are not cleaned, and I myself do not live in the city.

The interior of my new car is also more spacious, but I’m not even talking about the trunk, there’s plenty of space there, especially when you fold down the rear seats, so at least go to bed and stretch your legs.

Lada Kalina

The lineup of the Lada Kalina family also includes a station wagon (1117), a sedan (1118) and a hatchback (1119). A little later, the five-door Lada Kalina Sport was added to the 19th model. The first generation Kalina cars were equipped with 16-valve injection engines of 1.4-1.6 liters. with a power of 81, 89 and 98 hp. With.

Among the undeniable advantages of both generations of Kalina are a more spacious interior, good visibility, efficiency and satisfactory body rigidity.

Since 2013, AvtoVAZ launched a modernized Kalina series. The second generation family is represented by station wagon, hatchback, crossover and Sport. Cars with an on-board computer, a modern multimedia system, parking sensors, heated side windows and other innovations left the “ten” far behind in all respects. However, prices for second-generation models are far from budget. The cost of the cheapest model is 400 thousand rubles , and the most expensive (NFR) exceeds 800 thousand rubles .

What do VAZ-2110 and Lada Kalina have in common?

“Ten” and Kalina have a very decent ground clearance (from 165 mm) and are well adapted to our roads. The durable suspension and chassis on all modifications of the VAZ-2110 and Kalina are well suited for Russian road surfaces.

The cost of spare parts for a VAZ-2110 and Kalina rarely exceeds 2-3 thousand rubles, which will not put a big hit on the pocket of the car enthusiast. They are quite common, while for many foreign-made cars, spare parts are not always available and must be pre-ordered.

The steering rack from the VAZ 2110 and VAZ Kalina are the same or

You and I have already talked about this, that the center of the new rack was not caught, hence the curvature of the steering wheel.

Well, logically, yes, because people used to put 10th rods instead of Kalinovsky rods, but together with 10 rods, because you can’t put a 10th rod on a Kalinov rod, the rods are the same, or if not exactly the same, then within the same range the adjustment that the tips allow.

At least I have repeatedly come across information that the Kalinovskaya rack has a stiffer crankcase; by the way, this is mentioned on the 1st page of this topic.

Hello, operator Alexey Vasiliev is on the line with you. 18:44 Vladimir, tell me, can I find out the answer to the question about the steering rack? Operator Alexey will answer you in a few seconds 18:46 Alexey Vasiliev Yes, you can. 18:47 Vladimir Tell me, what is the difference between the steering racks on the Kalina and on the VAZ 2112? 18:51 Alexey Vasiliev They are not interchangeable. The viburnum has longer mustaches than the 2110.

conclusions

The bodies of the first generation Kalina and VAZ-2110 meet all safety requirements. If the driver is willing to slightly sacrifice comfort for a more attractive price, then the VAZ-2110 is a good choice. In terms of technical characteristics, efficiency and maintenance costs, the cars are at approximately the same level. However, in the Kalina family, AvtoVAZ is trying to introduce more technical innovations and, in general, the cars better meet modern standards.

Comparison of Kalina station wagon and VAZ 2111

Which is better, 8 or 16 valve power units? Which engine should you buy a VAZ, Kalina or Renault car with? Why are modern modifications of a 16-valve engine safer and more economical than their 8-valve counterparts? After familiarizing yourself with the characteristics and advantages of engines, you will be able to answer the question: which one is worth purchasing?

When buying a car, many car enthusiasts have certain difficulties with choosing a power unit. And long hours of thinking begin about which engine to give preference to, the 8- or 16-valve version. This problem is especially acute if you buy a car on the secondary market. After all, we immediately think about which motor is more economical, has more power and torque after several years of its operation.

Complete sets with a curiosity

The task of comparing Kalina and Priora will not be solved if you do not analyze the configurations in which these cars are assembled. Both cars have some wonders in this regard. Priora can be found with a coupe body. True, you rarely see such a car, since the circulation is limited. But in Kalina there is a “Sport” modification , but it is also not put into production.

As for the main configuration options, for both cars they are divided into the following types: “Standard”, “Norma”, “Lux”. What advantages is the Lada Kalina ready to offer against the Priora? Let's figure it out. Specifications

Kalina "Standard"

Such a car costs about 280 thousand rubles. There are no frills here - only the most necessary. The engine in this car is 1.6 liters and produces 81 hp. With. The “standard” Kalina has central locking with remote control, front electric windows and an anti-theft system. That's all the bells and whistles.

Viburnum "Norma"

For “Norma” the manufacturer is already asking almost 330 thousand rubles. What's in it? For the version with a 1.4-liter engine (89 “horses”) - climate system, anti-lock, electric power steering, large-sized stamped wheels.

Kalina "Lux"

This model can be purchased at a price of 360 thousand rubles. Why is it more expensive than previous modifications? Here, not only the driver, but also the passenger have an airbag, the interior is lined with velor, headrests are built into the rear sofa, and there is an option for electric drive and heated mirrors. The front seats are also heated, there are foglights, alloy wheels and electric windows. The engine of this model is 1.6 liters, with a power of 98 “horses”.

Test drive a Lada Kalina car:

Priora "Standard"

The cost of such a car starts from 320 thousand rubles. Even this “minimal” version of the Priora already has a driver’s airbag. Also included is the option of remote trunk control, anti-theft alarm, central locking, and electric windows (front). Even this poor set looks more solid in comparison with Kalina. True, the engine in this modification does not differ in power - 1.6 liters and 90 horsepower.

Priora "Norma"

In this case, a good “Norma” can be purchased for 360–370 thousand rubles. A “normal” 1.6-liter engine produces 98 “horses”. In this configuration you will receive: electric drive and heated mirrors, a velor-trimmed interior, power steering, and anti-lock braking device. By the way, in the “Normal” category there are seven Prior variants. The most expensive of them has built-in modern audio and climate systems and navigation.

Test drive a Lada Priora car:

Priora "Lux"

“Luxury” Priors are equipped quite well. There is an option for heated front seats, electric windows, seat belt indication, anti-lock system, parking sensors and even a rain sensor. Such cars cost from 390 thousand rubles. The most expensive “Lux” versions (over 400 thousand rubles) have built-in navigation and an audio system.

There is also Granta

What to choose - Kalina or Priora? If you are still in such thoughts, then you definitely need to know that the new Kalina has recently been released. So, Kalina sedan was replaced by Kalina Granta. This is the newest version. Now it can be found in the “Standard” and “Normal” variants. Its average cost is 300 thousand rubles. The “normal” set of Grants includes an alarm system, an on-board computer, central locking, electric power steering and electric windows for the front windows.

Safety, prestige and design

Safety is the weakest link in VAZ cars and the entire Russian automotive industry. UAZ still copes with this task relatively well, but it is far from being comparable to foreign cars. None of our cars have yet received at least a full 4 out of 5 possible stars for a crash test using the EuroNCAP method. This fact is very unpleasant, VAZ workers are trying, alas, in vain so far.

Priora is a modification of Lada 2110,2112,2113, based on the body type. In fact, changing the name is just a marketing ploy. Naturally, the car has undergone many changes - in the body, engine, and security system. In the entire development of the Russian automobile industry, Priora is the first car to receive an airbag for the driver as standard.

In contrast to the “ten,” the Priora’s body withstood frontal and frontal impacts, although with a slight advantage. The airbag worked accurately and on time.

The crash test showed that the Priora is a relatively safe and reliable car. According to the test results, in the event of a frontal and frontal impact at a speed of 40-50 km/h, the driver and passenger will receive injuries that are not life-threatening.

Priora earned 3 full stars and 10 points on a 16-point scale.

Beauty Kalina 2.7 generation

With Lada Kalina the situation is much worse. According to the crash test, the surface of the car body was not damaged to the same extent as the driver and passenger. During a frontal impact, the readings of the sensors in the cervical vertebrae of the dummies went off scale.

Also, the mannequins had severe deformation of the chest, a huge number of bruises throughout the body and heavy loads on the knees, spine, and hip joints. According to some indicators, Kalina turned out to be even more terrible than the unsafe Cossack.

According to the EuroNCAP methodology, it earned a shameful one star out of 5 possible. However, this is an assessment of the first modification of the car; as for the redesigned version of Kalina 2021, the results are slightly better: 2.5 stars. In this aspect, Priora is one step ahead.

Both cars are equipped with airbags and the ABS system.

In the process of choosing a car, prestige is also important. Who is the driver is governed by his views on the suit of the car and, depending on this, gives preference to one or another brand.

What do VAZ-2110 and Lada Kalina have in common?

“Ten” and Kalina have a very decent ground clearance (from 165 mm) and are well adapted to our roads. The durable suspension and chassis on all modifications of the VAZ-2110 and Kalina are well suited for Russian road surfaces.

The cost of spare parts for a VAZ-2110 and Kalina rarely exceeds 2-3 thousand rubles, which will not put a big hit on the pocket of the car enthusiast. They are quite common, while for many foreign-made cars, spare parts are not always available and must be pre-ordered.

Comparative analysis of VAZ 2111 and Lada Kalina

Everyone understands the feeling of feverish excitement when buying a new car. Walking through the car markets, your eyes widen. How to make the right purchase so as not to make a mistake in choosing. We pick up a car reference book and study the characteristics of the cars offered to us. Of course, the advantage is towards new cars.

Let's compare, for example, two models produced by AVTOVAZ - the Lada Kalina (Lada 1118) with a station wagon and the Lada 111 (VAZ 2111).

Let's check how the cars of these two brands cope on the country's roads. To begin with, let's compare the technical characteristics of both proposed models.

The modern, harmonious proportions of Kalina are pleasing with their streamlinedness compared to the angular, at first glance, 111th VAZ. Body lines without visible gaps. The doors open 90 degrees, and the trunk opens 10 cm wider than that of the “eleventh” and is clearly fixed, which is convenient for owners. The trunk door can be closed from the inside. For comparison, the trunk of the VAZ 2111 is in no way inferior, and even superior in size.

Inside the cabin there is relative silence, no engine detonation, no crackling of the front panel, no creaking seats, in comparison with the same VAZ 111. The insides of the “eleventh” are noticeably different from the Kalina, but the advantages of the 111 are the possibility of greater cargo transportation. Also, the “eleventh” can easily accommodate people with fairly large dimensions.

Comfort and ease of use

Regarding comfort, which car can compete for the championship? The seemingly small and not even very folding Kalina differs from the Priora in its spacious interior. There is a more convenient frontal view and a higher seating position. Rear view mirrors are not easy, which adds convenience to driving.

New Lada: Replacing the trunk lock cylinder Kalina station wagon

Otherwise, these cars are equal. By the way, in 2021 Lada Priora became the most stolen car among VAZ cars. Both cars have central locking and an alarm system. But it should be noted that when repairing Kalinas, car repair shops are visited less often than Prioras.

Typically, it is not the body repair that is required, but the repair of the car's electronics. There are a lot of electronics in both cars. The functional version of the configuration is equipped with front and rear windows, climate control, on-board windows, heated mirrors and the driver's seat.

But when buying Priora and Kalina in luxury configuration, you will have to take care of wheel arch liners and engine protection.

To summarize, it can be noted that both cars need improvement and many changes. The quality of metal and plastic, safety and reliability compared to foreign-made cars remain at a very low level as before.

For those who prefer quiet, stable driving and comfort, the Lada Kalina will be a suitable option. The lowest fuel consumption and maneuverability give it some of the main advantages of gaming slots. Priora is better for those who love speed and value safety.

But 3 stars for the crash test does not provide a workable version of confidence in security.

Considering that out of 7 criteria, Priora wins in only two, its popularity remains a mystery. Why is Priora on par with Kalina and Granta - our best-selling cars? What remains for our client to do is that Priora, in the previous modification of the “ten”, has already established itself as a reliable and prestigious car.

Over the course of many years, we got used to it and fell in love with it. But reliability and prestige are relative concepts. “Ten” in the bosom of the classics, “nine” or “eight” seemed respectable and reliable. However, now cars have become even safer and more beautiful, and the “classics” have sunk into oblivion.

Today, Lada Priora is the only VAZ class B car produced.

Kalina, not having had time to leave the assembly line, received a huge number of pessimistic forecasts. Indeed, the first cars produced were unfinished and of poor quality, not to mention safety. But having undergone certain changes, Kalina can really be considered the best car produced by VAZ. Alas, the final choice always remains with the buyer.

Car comparison

Advantages of Kalina over VAZ 2110:

Firstly, I would immediately like to draw your attention to the most expensive part in a car - the body! It is immediately clear that on the ten it is more susceptible to corrosion, since there is no galvanization there at all. All the gaps between the parts are simply huge, but with Kalina everything is done well, they fit clearly both outside and inside, there is galvanization, even if minimal, but it is present. I compared seven-year-old cars that were operated under approximately the same conditions and looked at the condition of the bottom and wheel arches. During this time, the top ten are already beginning to become well covered with saffron milk caps; the wings are almost completely rusty. There was no rust at all on the Kalinovsky bodies, even in those places where the paint was chipped.
