The basic equipment of the Priora will cost the owner 336,000 rubles, but the luxury equipment will cost 399,000. The trunk of this car is much smaller, its volume is 777 liters with the rear seats folded down.

Review of Lada Priora station wagon:

Summing up, we can say that when choosing a car, you should remember, first of all, your considerations, what exactly your car should be. The automotive industry can offer any option that suits the taste and wallet of every buyer. The car Lada Largus has taken a worthy position in the market. Competitors of Lada Largus have their advantages and disadvantages. We can definitely say that in price this car has surpassed all its competitors, and the quality turned out to be very good.

Characteristics of Lada Largus unique when compared with the characteristics of other domestic cars. The first 7-seat available station wagon appeared thanks to the French concern Renault, which has been collecting Logan in a universal body since 2006 in Romania.

Domestic has two power units from Renault with a capacity of 84 and 105 horsepower. The 1.6-liter gasoline engine has two versions with 8 and 16 valves. But the main distinguishing characteristic of the Lada Largus is, of course, the dimensions, and the huge wheelbase, it was thanks to her that the placement of the third row of seats became possible.

Dimensions, dimensions and volumes of Lada Largus

• Length - 4 470 mm
• Width - 1 750 mm
• Height - 1636 mm (with roof rails 1670)
• Base, distance between the front and rear axle - 2905 mm
• The track of the front and rear wheels is 1469 and 1466 mm, respectively
• Trunk volume - 560 liters (in the 7-seater version 135 liters, the van has 2,540 liters!)
• Fuel tank size - 50 liters

Ground clearance Lada Largus is 160 millimeters. The most interesting thing is that the Romanian counterpart Logan MCV has less. However, the Russian version received a stronger suspension, and with it an increase in ground clearance up to 16 centimeters.

Mass Lada Largus is 1260 kg (full 1750) in the five-seater version. The seven-seater Largus has a curb weight of 1,330 kilograms (gross weight is 1,810). The Lada Largus van has a weight of 1,260 kg (gross weight is 2,010), so the cargo-passenger version can carry an additional 750 kg.

Transmission characteristics Lada Largus following, the station wagon is a front-wheel drive car with Renault's only 5-speed manual gearbox. The gear ratio of the main pair is 4.5 for an 84 hp motor. and 4.2 for an engine of 105 horses. The most interesting thing is that for a van where only a low-power motor is installed, this number is 4.9.

Characteristics of the Lada Largus engine

More precisely, two Renault engines with 8 and 16 valves. The gasoline power unit with a working volume of 1.6 liters has a capacity of 84 and 105 horsepower, respectively.

So, the engine is 1.6 liters 8-valve 84 hp. -

• Power hp / kW - 84/62 at 5500 rpm
• Torque - 124 Nm at 3000 rpm
• Maximum speed - 156 kilometers per hour
• Acceleration to the first hundred - 14.5 seconds
• Combined fuel consumption - 8.2 liters

Engine parameters Largus 1.6 liter 16-valve 105 hp -

• Power hp / kW - 105/77 at 5750 rpm
• Torque - 147 Nm at 3750 rpm
• Maximum speed - 165 kilometers per hour
• Acceleration to the first hundred - 13.1 seconds
• Combined fuel consumption - 7.9 liters

Tire size Lada Largus 185/65 R15. Moreover, on cheap station wagon trim levels, 15-inch steel wheels, on more expensive ones, they are cast alloy wheels. If in Lada Granta, for example, the size of the wheels varies from R13 to R15, then in Largus it is only 15 inches.

For most motorists who have chosen Lada Largus as their faithful road companion, practicality is usually a priority, and trunk volume plays an important role. It hides two global concepts related to providing such convenient options as:

• achieving comfortable movement in a loaded state on roads with various surfaces;
• getting a car that can surprise you with its carrying capacity and spaciousness of the luggage section.

In practice, many owners have made sure that Lada Largus fully complies with these two aspects. This allowed the universal “Russian woman” to take possession of the “hearts” of motorists not only in the domestic space, but also to prove itself in the market of the CIS member countries, because the size of the trunk is quite acceptable, and the car has 5 seats.

In our material, we intend to highlight the features of the luggage compartment of this model in comparison with classmates who are at the same time competitors, we will also clarify the size of the trunk.

About the main characteristics of the trunk

Today, Lada Largus is produced in three body versions:

• basic five-seater station wagon;
• station wagon, with more capacity with seven seats;
• van (two seats: passenger and driver).

For each of these options, the stock of space in the luggage compartment is endowed with its own characteristics. It is not surprising that the van had the largest amount of luggage space. This is due to the lack of a rear seating row (or two), as well as an elongated body and has 5 seats. Official data indicate the amount of usable space in this body version of about 2500 liters. This modification of Lada Largus does not have any additional components and components inside the body, since the primary purpose of the van is to transport oversized cargo.

In a standard station wagon, which has only five seats in its arsenal, the stock of space in the luggage section is significantly smaller and equates to 700 liters. If there is a need to transport bulky goods, then the owner has the opportunity to dismantle the rear row of seats, and therefore, the size of the trunk for luggage increases to 1600-1800 volume in liters.

The seven-seater version (minivan) has the most “modest” trunk. Here, the capacity does not “shine”, because 200 liters, just such a trunk volume, is not enough for a “solid” cargo. Here, the manufacturer went to meet his devoted client and endowed this modification with a simple secret, namely: it is also possible to increase the trunk to the same 1600-1800 volume in liters by doing an identical operation to dismantle the stern seats. This will require the removal of two landing rows.

To be fair, we note that the station wagon is not intended for the systematic transportation of bulky items, since the body for such purposes must have large geometric parameters. Here, the need for endless dismantling of the rear seats contributes to the inconvenience, although the removal procedure itself is quite simple.

Important! The modification of the Lada Largus van is purposefully equipped with a reinforced suspension, because, as already noted, this particular car among the three Largus is designed to carry oversized luggage, an impressive trunk size. Station wagons are not able to boast of this useful option.

The size of the trunk of universal modifications. Here are some parameters:

• the opening in height is 920 mm, and in width - 980 mm;
• height inside the compartment from the bottom to the ceiling plate 870-930 mm for station wagons and approximately 1000 mm for the van version;
• in width, the internal space of the compartment reached 1000 mm, if measured along the plane of the arches, and 1450 mm, when measured at the level of human shoulders;
• the length of the section from the opening itself to the backs of the third seating row is 480 mm, and if it is a five-seat version, then 1570 mm (up to the 2nd row);
• if we consider the van, then the length from the edges of the doors to the dividing wall is approximately 1800 mm.

From here we can generate the conclusion that the trunk in Lada Largus in terms of trunk volume is a very worthy “rival”.

Are there competitors?

Due to its body layout, Lada Largus does not have a large number of its “opponents”, especially in the market spaces of the CIS countries. This can be partly explained by moderate demand. If we again tend to limit ourselves to post-Soviet market areas, then we are unlikely to find a worthy competitor to this station wagon in terms of carrying capacity. Impressive numbers can serve as a simple confirmation of this:

• the van is able to overcome a weight of 800 kg;
• the station wagon will cope with a 650-kilogram load, the volume in liters allows this.

Competitors are only able to get closer to these indicators, because their carrying capacity is at the level of 450-600 kg. A list of overall characteristics of the Largus trunk can bring a little disappointment, because in this discipline the station wagon is not a leader, however, it does not “weave” in the “tail of the tournament bracket”.

Detailed information regarding the dimensions is most clearly reflected in the following table:

As you can see, two positive aspects speak in favor of the universal “Russian woman”:

• enviable convenience when loading luggage, especially large ones, which is facilitated by the door opening limit (reaches 180 degrees with the doors completely turned out); Not a single universal model can boast of this feature;
• sane cost of a car, which is especially noticeable in comparison with eminent competitors.

Important! Against the background of the whole range of indicators that characterize the versatility of LADA Largus, it can be unequivocally stated that the domestic model, if it loses to its rivals in some minor disciplines, then in general it looks very worthy and profitable against their background. Here, few will argue with the functionality of the "Russian woman".

What does the trunk have more: pluses or minuses?

Summing up the review of the luggage department, it will be useful to take a closer look at the positive aspects and negative aspects. For such a long time of operation, the owners found only the only drawback in Largus. It is due to the fact that the manufacturer was too lazy to correct the interior in universal modifications for the possibility of transporting large items. This is echoed by multiple cases where the transportation of large items caused damage to decorative components in the interior.

In other cases, grateful owners sing only laudatory odes to LADA Largus and its manufacturer. After a thorough study of the advantages of the luggage compartment of the Russian station wagon, our resource has compiled the following list of advantages:

• convenient loading;
• balanced dimensions (reserve of space inside and external characteristics);
• the volume of the trunk increases rapidly due to the easy dismantling of the seats;
• enviable carrying capacity;
• competent layout solution of the cargo compartment;
• propensity for modernization.

Summing up

Today, the owners have gained considerable experience in using LADA Largus in various fields and industries. They all nod their heads in satisfaction at one question about the convenience and practicality of the trunk. On the net you will find only an unlimited mass of positive reviews about this model.

The size of the trunk turned out to be sufficient for the car to effectively demonstrate its functionality and be able to break into the lead from the “advancing on the heels” of competitors. The manufacturer managed to competently and rationally arrange the body space, which allows the station wagon to effectively cope with overall objects, demonstrating an enviable carrying capacity. We definitely note that this station wagon is recommended for purchase to those who have not yet found a real “worker” with a full range of balanced consumer and technical properties as a companion.

Video review of LADA Largus luggage compartment:

LADA Largus has long won the sympathy of Russian motorists. Drivers often pay attention to the large trunk volume of Lada Largus, which is the main advantage of this car. Domestic cars cope well with another task - it provides inexpensive and comfortable movement on modern roads. These two aspects and the ability to accommodate a large number of passengers allowed the car, produced by the Russian AvtoVAZ, to become a popular model in the CIS countries.

Largus trunk dimensions depend on the body variation, it can be:

• station wagon;
• van;
• minivan.

Each variation of the car has its own volume of luggage compartment. For a station wagon designed for 5 seats, the volume of this compartment is 700 liters. But the owner of this model can carry a large load. At the Lada Largus station wagon, the trunk volume can be increased to 1500-1800 liters by dismantling the second row of seats - a three-seater sofa. With the seats folded down, the volume of the luggage compartment of the station wagon increases to 2350 liters.

F90

The biggest van. In this variation of the car, there is no rear row of seats, and sometimes two, and the body is lengthened. Officially, the trunk capacity of the van is 2500 liters. The main task of the model is the transportation of goods, so there are no additional components and elements inside the body.

The van has a reinforced suspension, as this model is designed to transport bulky goods. Station wagons don't have this option.

Cross

The smallest trunk dimensions are in the Largus minivan, designed for 7 seats. At Largus cross, the trunk reaches a volume of 200 liters. The manufacturer helped car owners by allowing them to increase the volume of the luggage compartment in liters to 1600–1800, for which two landing rows should be removed.

The seven-seater version (minivan) has the most “modest” luggage compartment. But the manufacturer went to meet his devoted client and endowed this modification with a simple secret: it is also possible to increase the luggage space to the same 1600–1800 in liters by doing an identical operation to dismantle the stern seats. To do this, you will need to remove two landing rows.

Of course, neither the station wagon nor the minivan are designed to carry large loads, but if necessary, they will do an excellent job of this task.

Luggage compartment dimensions

Based on the results of the foregoing, we can conclude that the dimensions of the luggage compartment of any version of the Lada Largus are quite impressive. The general dimensions of this compartment for models are as follows:

• opening height is 920 mm;
• opening width is 980 mm;
• the height of the luggage compartment to the ceiling - from 870 to 930 mm for universal models and up to 1000 mm for a van;
• trunk length is 480–1570 mm for station wagons up to the 3rd and 2nd row of seats;
• the length of the luggage compartment of the van is 1800 mm to the dividing wall;
• luggage compartment width - 1000–1450 mm.

Advantages and disadvantages

To make the right decision, you need to study not only the advantages, but also the disadvantages of the model. Owners with extensive experience in operating Largus found one drawback. The car manufacturer did not adjust the interior of station wagons in such a way that their owners would have the opportunity to transport large loads. If the driver nevertheless decided to load a large object into his car, then often the load caused damage to the passenger compartment.

Otherwise, the owners of Lada Largus are satisfied with everything in their cars. Among the advantages of a Russian car, the following can be distinguished:

• ease of loading;
• optimal dimensions;
• the possibility of increasing the capacity of the trunk by dismantling the seats;
• high load capacity;
• the possibility of modernization.

Drivers without exception note the practicality and convenience of the LADA Largus trunk. Its size is quite enough to demonstrate the functionality of a domestic car, which allowed it to become a leader among its closest competitors. The manufacturer managed to competently and rationally approach the arrangement of the body space, which allows Largus to successfully transport large items and testifies to the enviable carrying capacity of the model.

Buying a Lada-Largus in any body and interior layout, motorists have two main tasks: the first is the organization of comfortable and cost-effective movement on the roads of our vast country, and the second is obtaining vehicles with a large luggage compartment and good carrying capacity. As practice shows, the model succeeded in both of the presented plans, thanks to which it managed to gather a large army of fans throughout the CIS.

In a number of articles on our resource, all the components and features of Lada-Largus are considered in detail, with the exception of one - the luggage compartment of a car. In today's material, this defect will be corrected, or rather, we will cover in detail the concept of the model's trunk, its volume and compare it with competitors. Well then, let's get started.

Trunk Lada-Largus: basic characteristics

Many motorists know that Lada-Largus is available in three body variations:

• standard station wagon (5-seater);
• high-capacity station wagon or minivan (7-seater);
• van (2-seater).

In the standard, each variation of the model has a certain amount of luggage. The van has the largest trunk for Largus, which is not surprising in principle. The luggage compartment in this version of the model is increased, primarily due to the absence of one or two sofas for passengers, as well as due to the increased body as a whole. According to official information the trunk volume of the Lada-Largus in the back of a "van" is about 2500 liters. This model is devoid of any extra elements in the cabin and luggage compartment, as it is designed to carry bulky cargo.

The next variation of the model in terms of dimensions is a standard station wagon with 5 seats for passengers and a driver. In the standard, the trunk volume of this car is equal to 700 liters. However, if you want to transfer a sufficiently large load, any model owner can dismantle the second row of seats (3-seater sofa), thus increasing the luggage compartment to 1500-1800 liters. Of course, a station wagon of this type is not intended for the purpose of cargo transportation, but if necessary, it can be used for this.

The smallest trunk volume Largus has a minivan variation. Due to the fact that the model is equipped with as many as 7 seats for passengers and the driver, the luggage compartment has a capacity of about 200 liters. But even here there is a trick: without any problems, you can dismantle a 2-seater and 3-seater sofa, which will allow you to increase the trunk to the same as that of a standard station wagon with a similar procedure, 1500-1800 liters.

Despite such functionality of the Lada-Largus cabin and, in particular, the trunk of the model, it should be understood that the station wagon versions have slightly smaller dimensions and are not intended for the transportation of bulky goods. Given this fact, we can state that they cannot be used for frequent transportation of large things. Yes, and every time it is inconvenient to remove the seat complex, although, by the way, this manipulation in Lada-Largus is extremely simple.

Important! In addition to the special design of the body and interior, Largus in the back of a "van" is additionally equipped with a reinforced suspension, since its main purpose is to transport heavy luggage and not in small volumes. "Universal models" cannot boast of such.

In general, the luggage compartment of Lada-Largus has the following dimensions (data are presented in mm):

• trunk opening height - 920;
• trunk opening width - 980;
• height to ceiling - from 870 to 930 for station wagons and about 1000 for a van;
• width inside the luggage compartment - from 1000 at the level of arches to 1450 at the level of a person's shoulders;
• the length of the trunk from the opening to the 3rd row / to the 2nd row for station wagons - 480/1570;
• the length from the trunk to the dividing wall at the van is about 1800.

As you can see, the dimensions of the Lada-Largus trunk are quite impressive.

Comparison with competitors

By its nature, Lada-Largus has few analogues in the Russian market and the CIS car market. This is largely due to the low demand for the B-class in the post-Soviet space. Despite this, it is quite realistic to highlight some parallels and compare a number of similar models in terms of cargo transportation.

First of all, we note that among the most popular competitors and analogues of Lada-Largus in the CIS, there are simply no such lifting models. Just think, but the brainchild of AvtoVAZ able to carry up to 800 kilograms in its van variation and about 650 kilograms in station wagon variations. None of Largus' competitors can boast of such data. Moreover, on average, among car analogues, there is a carrying capacity from 450 to 650 kilograms, which, frankly, is not much.

In terms of capacity and the overall dimensions of the luggage compartment of the Lada-Largus, everything is not so rosy. Yes, the car is not a clear outsider in this regard, but it is not among the leaders either. This trend is clearly seen in the comparison table below:

Despite this, two positive features of the model can be distinguished in favor of Lada-Largus with respect to today's comparison:

• convenience in terms of loading luggage: wide opening of the tailgate and side doors (up to 180 degrees) - which no competitor can boast of;
• price category, which is usually lower than that of the main competitors.

Important! In the aggregate of all the indicators that characterize the “baggage issue” between Lada-Largus and its competitors, the Russian model, although inferior somewhere, looks extremely dignified on the whole and can quite rightly be called one of the most functional in this regard.

Pros and cons of the luggage compartment of Lada-Largus

Summarizing the review of the Lada-Largus trunk, it would be useful to consider its advantages and disadvantages, which are noted by the owners of this model. Surprisingly, motorists single out only one minus in the luggage compartment of a car, and that one applies only to variations in the station wagon body. More precisely, many car owners do not like that the interior of these model variations was not adjusted well enough for the possible transportation of oversized cargo. It is not uncommon for careless transportation to damage some interior elements. Otherwise, all the owners of Lada-Largus only praise the trunk of their car.

Having highlighted the main advantages of the luggage compartment of the Russian model, our resource has formed the following list of those:

• previously mentioned - convenience in terms of loading luggage;
• excellent dimensions;
• ease of expansion by the size of the compartment by easily removing the seats;
• good carrying capacity of the machine;
• the absence of unnecessary elements in the decor of the compartment;
• simplicity and general literacy of the layout;
• the possibility of modernization.

Regardless of the scope of use of their car, most owners of Lada-Largus are satisfied with its luggage compartment. In general, there are only positive reviews about the trunk of the model.

As you can see, the dimensions of the luggage compartment of Lada-Largus are large enough and convenient for the operation of this vehicle. Together with a competent layout and general principles for constructing a trunk, the model in terms of cargo transportation manifests itself exclusively on the positive side. Definitely, regarding this parameter of the machine, it can be recommended for purchase. We hope that the above material was useful to you. Good luck on the roads!
