II Hatchback (2192) Overview:
Lada Kalina (II Hatchback (2192)). With 145 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. It has moderate fuel consumption (~9.9 l/100km). Weighing only 1125 kg, it’s quite light. Front‑wheel drive delivers efficiency and easy handling. Acceleration is relatively slow (0–100 km/h in 13.1 s). The top speed reaches 175 km/h. A compact car with a rear door that swings upward to provide access to the cargo area. Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.
