For such a simplified Grant Cross with increased ground clearance to 198 mm, 15-inch alloy wheels, electric power steering, power windows in the front doors, heated and electric mirrors, an on-board computer, central locking, Isofix mounts and audio preparation, you will have to pay 742 thousand rubles – that is, 112 thousand rubles less than for a similar station wagon in the old Classic configuration with ABS and airbags.
The official price list for the Lada Granta Cross still includes more expensive versions with 106-horsepower sixteen-valve engines, including those with a five-speed “robot”, because such cars are still available from dealers, but their prices continue to grow: for the Cross station wagon in the most expensive Luxe configuration, they are already asking for 971 thousand rubles. Well, following the Grant, AVTOVAZ will resume production of Niva off-road vehicles simplified under the same program – Togliatti promises to return to the production of these vehicles by the end of the month.
