VAZ-2121 "Niva" is a unique car. Appearing in 1977, the car became the world's first serial crossover. Prior to this, no one had thought to make such machines. There were frame SUVs or ordinary cars on the chassis of 4x4 models. Moreover, the "Niva" is considered the "correct" crossover, the reference, and not the city. Despite the lack of a frame, the car can give odds to a number of full-fledged SUVs. The secret of the model's success is in the short base and overhangs, permanent all-wheel drive, and the genius of Soviet design engineers. This car is still being produced, of course, having modernized and created several different versions, including five-door ones. But in terms of cross-country ability, the old VAZ-2121, aka LADA Niva Legend, is the best.
And if you still invest a million rubles in the Niva, you can get a full-fledged all-terrain vehicle capable of participating in off-road sports competitions. Although tuning is different. Sometimes he is able to make the car beautiful and eye-catching, but at the same time lose all the advantages inherent in the design. Such a miracle can be seen in the video of the Gorbunoff channel. This is the same Niva that does not go off-road, to the delight of UAZ owners. The owner of the car, who, according to him, invested a million rubles in tuning, is disappointed. But he honestly tries to prove to everyone and to himself that the Niva is capable of driving, despite the improvements that are strange for this class.
