The update of the Lada Vesta has begun: AvtoVAZ has removed questions about what awaits the model

AvtoVAZ talked about the updates of the LADA Vesta in its Telegram channel “Let’s get along with LADA”. The company announced an expansion of the color range and plans to bring back the Vesta Sport, expected changes in the model’s powertrain lineup, and also recalled the new options introduced at the end of last year.

So, with the transition to the 2026 model year, the standard LADA Vesta color palette has been supplemented with the smoky gray metallic “Typhoon”. Previously, this shade was used only for the “charged” Vesta Sport, but now, as noted in the channel, it has also been used for the 2026 model year Cross family of cars.

AvtoVAZ also reaffirmed its plans to return the LADA Vesta Sport to sales. This version, according to the company, will receive a 6-speed manual transmission, introduced last year and capable of “digest” up to 220 Nm of torque, which more than covers the traction characteristics of the 1.8 Evo engine with which it is aggregated.
