2007–2012 Lada Priora 2170 Specs & Performance

The Priora 2170 represented a significant refresh of Lada’s compact-sedan formula, moving beyond the older VAZ-2110 family with a more modern exterior and updated cabin. Introduced in 2007, it became the foundation of the Priora lineup before hatchback and wagon versions expanded the range. Its appeal came from familiar front-wheel-drive engineering and sensible everyday practicality rather than luxury or outright performance, making the 2170 a straightforward family sedan designed around affordability and ease of use.

Its naturally aspirated 1.6-liter 16-valve four-cylinder produces 97 hp and 107 lb-ft of torque, with a 5-speed manual transmission driving the front wheels. That combination gives the Priora a simple, predictable character suited to everyday driving, while its compact proportions and five-seat layout keep the focus firmly on practicality. With its conventional powertrain and uncomplicated drivetrain, the 2170 captures the functional approach that defined Lada during this period.
