Recently, a Lada Largus car was delivered to the conveyor production. Many do not know that this is a complete prototype of the Renault Logan MCV, better known as Renault Dacia. What is the joint development of AvtoVAZ and Renault concern?
One of the latest developments of AvtoVAZ is Lada Largus, aka Renault Logan MCV, in Europe it is better known under the Dacia brand. The delay in the release of Largus is most likely due to Renault's desire not to fall face down in the mud. Many people know the "bad" fame of AvtoVAZ, so Renault did not want to discredit themselves and tried to create a car.
Lada Largus is a unique offer in the automotive market. There is still no seven-seat station wagon at such an affordable cost. Of course, the internal and external equipment of Largus is an order of magnitude inferior to competitors, but in terms of practicality, this model most likely has no analogues.
Largus has a fairly high roof and a long base, which made it possible to accommodate a full third row of passenger seats. The headroom of the passengers is also noticeably increased compared to Logan. If desired, all the seats can be folded down to create a flat cargo area. Loading capacity of Largus is about 600 kg.
The extended base provides excellent balance and high stability on a straight road, so long journeys in such a car will be comfortable. Movement in the city can be difficult because of the slightly increased dimensions of the car, but you can get used to it. Lada Largus is bought, first of all, because of its practicality, so you can get used to some of the features of the car and put up with it.
Almost all Largus parts are taken from the Renault Logan MCV car, including the engine. True, the speed and dynamic qualities of Largus are slightly changed, adjusted for the large dimensions of the car. In terms of interior decoration, Largus and Logan are practically twins. There are both disadvantages and advantages here.
Many owners of Largus note the not too familiar device of the functional panel and the location of the ignition lock. But these are only subjective opinions. Largus is actively bought, and, despite some of the car's shortcomings, it is still the only one of its kind in terms of performance and price.
