LADA Niva Travel assembly will be transferred to the AVTOVAZ conveyor

AVTOVAZ will transfer the production of the LADA Niva Travel SUV to the main production site – Niva Legend line. The project is scheduled to be completed before the end of the summer corporate vacation in August 2021, after which LADA Zapad Togliatti plant will be mothballed, the press service of the automaker reports.

As noted, as a result of the transfer of LADA NivaTravel production, LADA Zapad Togliatti employees will become employees of AVTOVAZ and will have access to expanded social benefits and guarantees stipulated by the collective agreement of JSC AVTOVAZ. Recall that the production of the updated LADA NivaTravel SUV started at the LADA Zapad Togliatti enterprise at the end of December 2020, and the new product went on sale in February of this year.

The car is offered in two main modifications - NivaTravel and NivaTravel Off-Road - costing from 762 thousand 900 rubles and 859 thousand 900 rubles, respectively. LADA NivaTravel received a new exterior design, including new brighter headlights and LED lights. A 1.7-liter 80 hp engine is installed under the bonnet of the SUV.
