Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed his admiration for the new Lada Aura car, describing it as very good and comfortable. During a video meeting with members of the Russian government on Wednesday, the president said, "The Lada Aura is good, very comfortable, and easy to control."
Putin had driven the new Lada Aura on July 16 during the opening of the final section of the M-11 highway linking Moscow and St. Petersburg, and at that time, he described it as "a good car."
Later, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Putin chose this car to drive along the new road to showcase the capabilities of the Russian company AvtoVAZ.
The Lada Aura is an upgraded version of the popular Vesta cars produced by AvtoVAZ, but it has received modifications that make it more modern and provide better comfort standards for passengers.
The new car comes with a body length of 466 cm, a width of 176 cm, a height of 149 cm, and a ground clearance of 17.8 cm. It is equipped with comfortable seats for five passengers, and the dashboard features a 10.4-inch touch screen. Its engine has a capacity of 1.8 liters and delivers 122 horsepower.
