2016 Lada 4x4 Niva. Start Up, Engine, and In Depth Tour.

[@jbrooks4282]

This is just perfect. Simple, affordable, rugged, reliable, proven technology. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I just wish we could get them here in the U.S.

[@justalfathings6175]

45 years of production that only changed the rear lights assembly, and touched up the engine in 1983 and some minor touches in interier of the car, if it aint broke dont fix it you said that right

Today i bought my first lada niva from 1988 in Finland , and its ugliest car in my carage but i love it. Never i have had so much fun in so slow car. It has been two years outside, but i only had to replace battery and check fluids. Ride nicely 4 huors to new home.

[@zenshy2139]

onko sulla vieläkin se auto? miten oot tykänny siitä nyt 3 vuotta myöhemmin?

[@VilunenKorpi]

Terve. Kyllä auto vieläkin löytyy. Suht pienellä käytöllä ollut. Aika paljon tullut käytyä läpi sen tekniikka ja nytkin on huomautuksitta leimassa.

[@ripmax333]

I love the color and the stock steel wheels, it’s like going back into the 90’s. I heard it squeak a bit during your short ride presented here in this video, but to be honest I would care less. If I could I would buy it in a heart beat.

[@MarK-iw2xj]

What a great little car. Modern car companies should offer something like this as an alternative

[@michaelrajnacok7980]

They would never do it as it will last longer than a car full of electronics and useless crap

Drive it with pride. And when you do, remember that we can't import them in the US. So when you drive it, drive it for us.

[@singlecell2498]

How come?

[@zhukel_marimasko]

@@singlecell2498 how come it can't be imported? The US has weirdly high safety standards and emissions standards for cars. The Lada doesn't meet these standards because they reduce efficiency of the engine.

[@Ethnikiantistasi]

Simple and strong car in a very reasonable price..Here in Greece many people own nivas and use them for mountain travel and for off road driving during the hunting season..it is also usefull in small towns with narrow uphill streets and hard corners..Too bad that ladas are not imported here since 2012!

[@MrGoldenwaffler]

good little truck. i remember when they used to sell these in Abbotsford, BC. there was a little shady dealer that imported them. they would come in next to our GM store back in 1997 and i had a good look at them then. would make a great camping / back woods vehicle

the car has canged very little since 1976... in fact only ABS, power steering and the taillights were canged. Ih, and mirrors

[@overdriven77]

@@paprikabushcraft7597 not really dude. mechanics were also updated, like cv joints instead of those old type of joints (can't remember their name). But main difference is that old lada's were powered with weaker 1.6 liter carburated engine. All niva's since the 90's have the 1.7 liter engine, and newer ones got fuel injection.

[@mattw8332]

Nice example! Lada stopped selling their cars in the UK due to emissions regulations. However, I think we can still get these in the UK via a specialist importer, left hand drive only. Lada's own design iirc but you can see a little of the 1970s Fiat influence in the styling...Fiat 128 estate maybe.

My parents had a 81 Niva, the seat belts didn't have a buckle, you laid the belt across the belt fastener and pushed down a spring loaded arm thus locking the belt. We had TONS OF PROBLEMS, but dad use to pull American 4X4 out of snow banks, it's a fantastic little machine, had bad breath top speed 120kph. 1.6 no fuel injection, 4 speed manual, I can still smell the interior and a smell of cheap plastic and vinyl.

[@FernandoIjurco]

Hey fantastic video! I'm from Argentina, we had a 1993 Niva when I was a kid, 1600cc Fiat origine engine. Best 4x4 ever! Sadly lada is not present in my country now...

[@TheManWithNoName93]

man I wish we could get them in canada, i would buy one right now.

[@CaptHollister]

They used to be sold here in Canada along with the complete Lada lineup. They stopped being imported because, while cheap, they suffered from truly awful build quality. The Niva was the best of the lot, but that's not saying much... On the plus side, the Niva is a true go anywhere off-roader, but at the cost of being slow and tedious on the road. If you really want one, survivors occasionally crop up on Kijiji. Bring tools.

[@jod4689]

The Man With No Name they’re supposed to come back.

[@leefythan5649]

Supposedly they are going to be sold back here in 2019... We can only hope.

[@xeniosaias]

It survives Russian winters 40 years.....what do you think????

[@enverdokuzoguz5154]

lol probably you never know though..

[@SuperLaugh20]

it will survive as long as you coat the underside with some anti-corrosion agent after you get it, since its prone to rust early

[@ilsh9083]

it seems it will survive, because it can do this here in Russia, with our anti-ice chemicals and salt on our roads. At least 5-7 years without big holes in the hull :-)

[@IHeartMyLada]

Ladas were available in Canada in the old days and as far as I know people liked them for their reliability even in very cold winters. If they survive Russian winters, they'll survive anything.

[@alezxanderroidz311]

Very well explained. Thanks

[@mihaiarmy666]

So this is 2016 model ?

[@paulbow5679]

Do you know how to get a new Lada into the UK.. As in the procedure???

[@phrodendekia]

Can you fold the rear seat, lifting the lower part first and then folding the back rest, so it it flush? Or you just fold the back rest?

[@jimmy1395]

The rear seats can only be folded forward. I think you have to remove a few screws that connects the upper and lower portion of the rear seats so that it can be folded flush.

[@jod4689]

Is it true that Lada is coming back to Canada? Do you know anything about this?

[@francopasinelli]

Well, an old project. Have you guys ever seen a FIAT 127 ? Take a look on the net and compare. This was a Fiat lada project. The engine isn't a derived GM, but indeed the old FIAT 1600 SOHC , mounted ont the fiat 1500, then 131, 132, and so on. Extremely reliable, a true workhorse. Even the door handle are from FIAT. But after seen them back in the late 70's around town, they disappeared. I was living un in the mountains, and doctors and farmers they all used NIVA's. Story goes, i'm looking into buying one now, i love the old look, they are sturdy and the engine will run forever with little maintenance. And all for only 11000 euros. Can't beat that!

[@cmdarb141]

Did you make this video on a car scrapyard, or just a repair shop?

[@enverdokuzoguz5154]

I think its a used dealership not sure though.

[@IHeartMyLada]

It looks like an industrial park with a lot of different car related companies. Some of them must be mechanics where they use parts from old disassembled cars, that's why you can see those old wrecks.

Would you recommend it as "citycar"?

[@edwardvalivonis23]

[@jimmy1395]

The fuel consumption is 10L per 100km and the faster you're driving it on smooth roads the ride quality becomes worse and driving it with more than 120 km/h it feels like the whole car will tear itself apart. This car is only meant to be driven off the road.

[@mwm1724]

> Ford F-150 > Gigantic Clearly you and I have very different interpretations of the word "gigantic"

[@basilpunton5702]

Lada. When released the engineering design was several generations ahead of the Japanese, but the manufacturing was several decades behind. It is not right to call this a 4x4, it has All Wheel Drive (AWD). 4x4 is only a part time system. AWD is full time.These differences matter and are not a mere splitting of hairs.

[@jakekaywell5972]

@hurrdurr Except the Niva came out a full three years before the Yugo in a completely separate country...

[@jakekaywell5972]

@hurrdurr Not necessarily so. The Yugo was crappily built because it was assembled at the Zavasta arms factory at a cut rate price. It sold for $4000 when new. Even for the 1980s, that was ridiculously cheap. A lot of Cadillac dealers actually started to give out Yugos to anyone who would buy a new Cadillac as a result. The Lada Niva, however was designed to be an off-roader from an an actual car factory. It can embarrass a whole bunch of larger, more powerful, and more expensive off roaders quite handily. A bit like an Austin Seven in that respect.
