Engines for new LADA versions are being developed at AvtoVAZ
AvtoVAZ is developing new-generation engines for Lada models, according to Evgeny Shmelev, the company's First Vice President for Strategy and Technical Development.
In addition to continuing work on the new LADA Azimut, the company plans to develop the production of new generation engines that can be integrated into both this novelty and other LADA models.
It has not yet been specified which engines are in question. Presumably, these are upgraded air breather engines of AvtoVAZ's own design displacement of 1.6 and 1.8 liters and capacity of 120 and 132 HP, respectively, coupled with 6-speed manual gear box or CVT. In the future, the list will be supplemented by a new 150-HP turbocharged engine coupled with a classic automatic gear box.
