The next model of the Volga Automobile Plant - VAZ 21099 - received a start in life at the end of 1990. It was produced for 15 years, underwent a number of modifications and was in steady demand almost throughout Russia. The car was exported under different names, which did not affect the technical characteristics of the car. For example, such a sonorous export name as Lada Form or Lada Samara Saloon.
All the parameters of the VAZ 21099 were maintained unchanged for years, and only when the AvtoVAZ design bureaus began the next modification of the car, changes were made to the components and assemblies with some advance so that there was no backlog in deliveries, which were calculated approximately, and in most cases the assembly shops of the plant could not keep up with the sales department.
However, any large-scale production sins with a disruption in deliveries, this is a normal process and there is nothing surprising in the fact that consumers received VAZ 21099 a few months later than promised. The car was produced in the early years at the Ukrainian ZAZ automobile plant, it was even designated accordingly - ZAZ 21099. This introduced some confusion, but all inconsistencies were eliminated asreceipts.
The exterior of Samara, and later Sputnik 21099, was distinguished by long front fenders. Or rather, they were not long, but one-piece front fenders, because sometimes short ones were installed on the models 2108 and 2109, which seemed to break off at the line of the radiator grille, and their continuation was a separate part of the headlight trim. The long-winged machine did not have a seam at the end of the front wing, while the short-winged machine had a seam - that's the whole difference.
The VAZ 21099 engine, a gasoline carburetor, was of two types, which differed in volume - 1.3 and 1.5 liters. These motors began to be equipped with central injection injectors for a certain period of time. With successful adjustment of the injection electronics, the car became economical, with decent power potential, but, as a rule, the injection system did not work very well, causing a lot of complaints. During the production of VAZ 21099, there were two attempts to supermodify the car, it was supposed to release a powerful Lada Sport with an eight-cylinder engine on order and an all-wheel drive jeep Lada Victory.
The first project failed before it even started, because there was not a single person who wanted to ride a sports Lada, and even for such a cosmic price. Lada Virtory, although it was released in several copies, also did not find its buyer due to the excessively high cost. As a result, the release of VAZ 21099 continued in a trivial version, which was accepted by the general public (hatchback and sedan). In addition to the body type, the buyer could also chooseengine type - VAZ 21099 carburetor or VAZ 21099i injector.
Everyone then understood that a car with a carburetor would never be sold later, but with an injector it was possible to sell it. Therefore, the choice was usually made in favor of electronic injection. People had a lot of troubles, but nothing will scare a Russian driver.
VAZ 21099 injector sold well, repairs were inexpensive, there were any spare parts, there were also plenty of repairmen. And against the background of foreign cars, which were becoming more and more, and the service of which resulted in a five-digit figure, not to mention the cost of foreign spare parts, the VAZ 21099 looked like an unprecedented cheap car.

Choosing a car is a very responsible and difficult task. Today, when the market is filled with a huge number of automakers from different countries, everyone is trying with all his might to win the trust of the Russian buyer.

Let's remember how the domestic industry of modern Russia developed

It has long been known that it is impossible to clean a car from heavy dirt with plain water. No matter how hard you try, you still can't achieve the desired purity. In order to remove dirt from hard-to-reach places, special chemical compounds are used to reduce surface activity. However, they also cannot reach very small cracks and corners
