The first photo of the body of the new LADA sedan has been published

AVTOVAZ, which is currently on corporate leave, nevertheless continues to work on new projects. Public Avtograd News published the first picture of the body of a new B-class car without disguise, which made a test run from the Granta painting complex to the assembly line. At the same time, the modernization of the Granta assembly line continues, which is being carried out by contractors. The new LADA model will be built on the CMF-B platform, which will be shared with the third generation of Renault Logan and Sandero.

It will be a completely new family of B-class cars with different body types: at the moment we know about a sedan and station wagon. Production of the novelty is planned to begin in 2023 on the assembly line, where LADA Granta cars are produced today. For some time, both models will be produced in parallel, while the production of "Granta", in its turn, should be transferred to the assembly line, where the assembly of SUVs of the Niva family is implemented.

It is assumed that in the LADA model range, the novelty will occupy a niche between the low-cost Granta and the flagship Vesta. Recall that in March AVTOVAZ assembled the first pre-production car of the new LADA B-class model, which was presented to the company's president, Nicolas Maure.
