The VAZ 2114 hatchback replaced the “nine” in the CIS market, so beloved by consumers. The modernization, of course, took place at the highest level - the car received new bumpers, moldings, a hood of a new shape and geometry, new headlights, a radiator grille, and an interior.
A spoiler with brake lights, door sills, and moldings along the sides gave the car a much-needed sportiness. In addition, due to external elements The VAZ 2114 has significantly improved its aerodynamic characteristics, and, as a result, its handling on the highway when the car is traveling at high speed.
As in some foreign-made cars, part of the VAZ 2114 series was designed in Western style - all attached parts were painted black. The other part of the series, in turn, supported fans of calmer solutions by painting all elements in a single color. However, the shape and exterior features of this car are so convenient for creating truly exclusive copies through tuning, thanks to which the VAZ 2114 actually became the first domestic car that attracted fans of external individualization of the vehicle.
Engine characteristics
For the VAZ 2114, 1.6-liter engines using direct fuel injection technology, or, in other words, injection, were used. No new modifications have been developed for this model power unit, so similar engines can be found on other VAZ models.
Car transmission
Like other VAZ models, the VAZ 2114 used manual transmission gear shift. Manual control is still a kind of “trademark” of the Volzhsky Automobile Plant and other enterprises where cars developed by VAZ are assembled. Mechanical transmissions more reliable, durable and simply convenient.

Dimensions
The dimensions of the VAZ 2114 are not fundamentally different from other cars in the series, and to a large extent - for a reason, the root of which lies in the period of development of the “unit”. Its name is maximum interchangeability of elements, requiring manufacturers to keep the basic design of the car practically unchanged.

09.05.2012VAZ 2114 - The most popular domestic car. The fourteenth replaced the VAZ 2109. Changes were made as in appearance body and interior.
Sports style VAZ 2114
A sporty appearance is achieved due to moldings installed on the body along all sides of the car, a spoiler and decorative thresholds.
The car has good technical characteristics, holds the track well, takes turns well even at high speed compared to the classic model, and even to its predecessor 2109.
The VAZ 2114 is in good demand among fans of domestic tuning. The simple structure of the body and relatively cheap maintenance makes it possible to experiment and become individual in the gray traffic.
Technical characteristics of VAZ 2114
Regular 4-cylinder 8 valve engine You won’t surprise anyone, so you shouldn’t expect any special characteristics. Front-wheel drive, standard gearbox, drum and disc brakes. The differences between hatchbacks and sedans lie in the volume of the trunk, which increases when the rear seat backs are folded. In our case, the shape of the body does not affect the dynamics. There is no point in comparing the performance of the VAZ 2114 with the classics - aerodynamics, due to smoother and more modern body lines, makes the car easy to drive. Well, the rest of the VAZ 2114 is ordinary Russian car, which is popular among many residents of the country and is desired in every family. Most copies are injection, installed since 2011 electronic pedal gas - e-gas

The VAZ 2114, produced in a pilot batch of fifty copies in 2001, was put on the assembly line and became available to the average motorist in 2003. It was created on the basis of the old VAZ 2109; in comparison with it, the fourteenth model received a radical update.
The design became more modern and pleasant, the bumpers began to be painted in body color, moldings and sill fairings appeared. The interior trim has also changed: an adjustable steering column, a Euro instrument panel, a steering wheel from a VAZ 2110 and new system heating.
But the most important thing is in the engines. Starting with the VAZ 2114, the carburetor intake became a thing of history; it was finally replaced by an injector with distributed fuel injection. This made it possible to achieve greater efficiency and at the same time improve dynamic characteristics. 
The car also has many additional options that were previously unavailable. Such as: tinted windows, power windows, heated seats, fog lights, alloy wheels and central locking.
The VAZ 2114 was produced in two trim levels:
- Luxury
- Standard.
The Luxury version came pre-installed from the factory with fog lights, wheel caps, head restraints for rear passengers, and modified upholstery on the doors and door trims. The main advantage of the higher configuration was trip computer, which could record fuel consumption, average speed, travel time and other interesting parameters. 
In 2007, the VAZ 2114 model received a restyling, new engine and index 21144. With this internal combustion engine, the car began to comply with the EURO-3 environmental class. A plastic decorative cover appeared, the aluminum receiver was replaced with a plastic one, and the catalyst was moved closer to the engine. In addition, small changes have occurred inside the car.
The dashboard was updated, the upper glove compartment disappeared, an on-board computer was integrated into the instrument panel, showing the voltage in the on-board network, outside temperature, time, and the like.

Thanks to its technical characteristics and appearance, the VAZ 2114 car has gained great popularity among people of different ages. Adults appreciated large trunk, the ability to fold seats and low fuel consumption. And the young people bought it for good dynamics and more modern design, both external and internal.
The dimensions of the VAZ 2114 correspond to international class B.
In raw numbers they look like this:
- Machine length: 4100 mm.
- Machine height: 1415 mm.
- Machine width: 1620 mm.
- Base: 2460 mm.
- Ground clearance: 165 mm.
- Rear track: 1370 mm.
Models with index 211440-24, produced in 2007, and 211440-26, which appeared on production lines in 2010, had slightly modified dimensions 2114:
- Machine length: 4122 mm.
- Machine height: 1402 mm.
- Machine width: 1650 mm.
The differences were due to the restyling of the bumpers, rear-view mirrors, as well as minor adjustments to the car’s suspension. 
Some people want to increase the ground clearance of the VAZ 2114, then the car will have more cross-country ability and will be easier to overcome city obstacles. But the increase ground clearance negatively affects the location of the car’s center of mass; in turns it will become more rolly and generally lose controllability. Everyone chooses what is more important to them.
VAZ 2114 is a Russian hatchback that replaced the discontinued nine. The changes affected not only the external parts of the body (new headlights, hood, bumpers, moldings, radiator grille), but also the interior.
Sports style VAZ 2114
The modern appearance of the VAZ 2114 car is given by moldings along all sides, a spoiler with a brake light and door sills. External changes to the VAZ 2114 justify themselves, giving the car excellent aerodynamic qualities, as well as road stability even at high speeds. Bumpers, moldings and other attachments are made in one color scheme with a body, or made in black, which gives the VAZ 2114 model a resemblance to foreign cars and gives buyers the opportunity to choose the exterior design of the car.
For its appearance, the car was loved by people involved in tuning. And I fell in love due to the fact that at low cost the VAZ 2114 can be made individual, standing out from the general traffic flow.
Technical data VAZ 2114
As can be seen from the table with technical characteristics VAZ 2114, the difference with models of its class is only in the size of the body. The 1.6-liter eight-valve engine is installed on many AvtoVAZ models, so you shouldn’t expect any special characteristics. The drive is front-wheel drive, the gearbox is like everyone else’s, so to speak, standard. The differences between hatchbacks and sedans lie in the volume of the trunk, which increases when the rear seat backs are folded. There is no point in comparing the performance of the VAZ 2114 with the classics - aerodynamics due to smoother body lines makes the car easier to drive. But otherwise, the VAZ 2114 is an ordinary Russian car that wins the hearts of car enthusiasts thanks to its appearance.

From the history of VAZ-2114
VAZ-2114"Lada 2114" - Volzhsky five-door hatchback automobile plant, created on the basis of the VAZ 2109 car. It was created in the mid-90s as part of the development of the Samara-2 family. This car is a modified VAZ-21093 with a front part from the well-known VAZ-2115 model (optics, radiator grille, front spoiler) and with a slightly modified rear body design (changed rear bumper, an additional brake light is installed). The bumpers are painted in body color, and moldings and sill fairings are installed on the sides of the body. The interior of the VAZ 2114 is equipped with a new instrument panel (the so-called “European panel”), an adjustable steering column, a steering wheel from the “tenth” family, and a heater of a new design. When folded back seat the car is transformed into a cargo-passenger version, similar to a station wagon. The car is equipped with electric windows, tinted windows, fog lights, heated seats, central door locking, and alloy wheels.
The first copies of the VAZ 2114 were assembled on the factory assembly line in 2000, and in 2001 a pilot batch of 50 cars was assembled. Serial production of the car began in April 2003.
The aerodynamics of the VAZ-2114 are similar to the VAZ-2115, in which Cx has decreased slightly, the lift force has decreased and its distribution along the axes has noticeably improved. The drag coefficient Cx of the updated hatchback decreased only slightly - 0.45 versus 0.46 for the regular “nine”. But the balance of lifting forces has changed radically: the total lifting force has increased slightly, but it is now distributed evenly along the axes. And this promises more balanced behavior of the car at high speed.
Installed on the car injection engine 1.5 l. (VAZ-2111) with distributed fuel injection, providing increased dynamic properties and improved fuel efficiency.
Since 2007, the car has been equipped with a new 1.6-liter engine (VAZ-11183) of the Euro-3 environmental class, the model receives the VAZ-21144 index Distinctive features from the old engine - the catalyst is not located under the bottom, but near the engine, a plastic decorative cover is put on the engine, instead of an aluminum receiver, a plastic one is installed. In addition to the new engine, the car receives a new dashboard ( top part comes without a glove compartment, which increases strength and reduces the occurrence of extraneous noise), a new instrument panel with a function on-board computer(shows outside temperature, on-board voltage, current time and other parameters).
Available in 2 trim levels - “Standard” or “Luxury”. Externally, the “luxury” versions are distinguishable from the “standard” ones only by fog lights and wheel covers. In the interior there are headrests for the rear sofa. In addition, the seats and doors have more pleasant (but at the same time easily soiled) upholstery, and instead of a plug on the center console, there is a trip computer that records fuel consumption, travel time and average speed.
