In September 2021, AVTOVAZ announced the official start of production of a new special series [BLACK]. The [BLACK] special edition vehicles feature black interior and exterior accents combined with rich exterior colors. Let's figure out how the Lada XRAY Cross [BLACK] differs from the regular XRAY.
Exceptional is not just unique. An exceptional person is someone who is always in his environment. When it comes to being fashionable, he captivates with his sophistication of style. When it is necessary to be impetuous, he is ahead of many. And when the situation is the most ordinary... then XRAY Cross [BLACK] will make every day special!
This is what AVTOVAZ writes about the Lada XRAY Cross [BLACK].
Differences
External differences
:
- Original 17" wheel rims (black lacquer sets off the diamond-cut spokes).
- Side mirrors black.
- Black glossy roof (not film, painted).
- [BLACK] nameplates on the car body (in the store).
The roof is the color of space. Someone is waiting for a bright streak. For what? After all, there is a brilliant streak! A wide shiny line from the hood to the trunk - athermal glass and gloss black roof.
Attracting glances. Admire how the black varnish sets off the diamond-cut spokes!
Differences in the interior
:
- Black ceiling, black windshield lining, black ERA-GLONASS unit, black ceiling handrails.
- Original seat upholstery.
Chrome on black. Shield [BLACK]. A laconic inscription as a symbol of a special series. As a symbol of good taste.
A little strictness. Classic style is always serious, but with a sparkle. Matte black ceiling. Black seat upholstery with light stitching and inserts is the necessary contrast for style. Like cufflinks or a club pin on your lapel.

New Lada XRAY Cross

- Length – 4171 mm;
- Width – 1810 mm;
- Height – 1645 mm;
- Wheelbase – 2592 mm;

Magnificent interior
This is exactly the case when you can say about a car that it is much larger inside than it seems from the outside. The main highlight of the interior is its bright and contrasting design, which emphasizes the sporty character of the “baby”.

The materials used are of high quality, increased wear resistance and compliance with all required environmental standards. The luggage compartment is quite ergonomically thought out and you can easily fit 4-5 medium suitcases there. It also has niches and pockets for various small items, as well as fastenings for holding nets and cords. Despite such a rich optional equipment of the Xray Cross and its relatively low price, the auto center offers very favorable offers, creating consistently high demand, stimulating car enthusiasts to make a purchase.
Reliable components and assemblies
If we talk about the engine range, then the future owner has everything he needs to choose from. Moreover, it is worth noting that thanks to the fraternal influence of specialists from the Renault-Nissan concern, all technical components were thoroughly refined and improved.
- The base engine is the domestic 16-valve DOHC VAZ-21179 engine with a displacement of 1.8 liters and multipoint injection;
- The power plant develops 122 horsepower and 170 Newton meters.;
- The engine is paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox.
- An alternative is the 1.6-liter Renault H4M engine with 16 valves;
- Power – 113 “horses”, torque – 152 N.m.;
- The engine works in conjunction with a continuously variable transmission from Jatco.
Chassis and braking system:
- Platform – B0;
- Front suspension – McPherson;
- Rear – semi-independent, lever, spring;
- Brakes – all disc (ventilated front);
- The steering wheel is electrically power-assisted.
Safety:
- Reinforced body frame;
- Factory protection of the engine compartment;
- ABS, BAS, EBD, HSA;
- Era-GLONASS;
- ISOFIX fastenings.
- AirBag – front and for the passenger in the first row;
- Parking sensors;
- Immobilizer;
- Rain and light sensor.
Lada XRAY Cross: a hybrid of the B0 platform and Vesta
If you think that XRAY Cross is just a raised XRAY, then you are very mistaken. In fact, this is a very interesting fruit of original Tolyatti engineering, which combines parts of the B0 and Vesta platforms.
The development of the French platform by AvtoVAZ has been going on for ten years. After purchasing a license from Renault in the fall of 2008, Largus first appeared under the Lada brand, which is essentially no different from the original Logan station wagon. Then in Togliatti they made XRAY, which was already significantly different from the original Sandero Stepway hatchback in design, interior, and power units, but still inherited the ordinary driving character and all the birthmarks of the B0 chassis, including unclear reactive communication and high level vibrations on the steering wheel.
And now the XRAY Cross is coming out, the main technical innovation of which is a modified front suspension, where instead of Logan’s lower arms there are new L-shaped ones, essentially copied from Vesta’s suspension. The break-in shoulder is now negative, which should improve handling. In addition, the electro-hydraulic power steering has been replaced with an electric one, also following the example of Vesta. The steering column now has reach adjustment.
Vesta Cross also got rear disc brakes. This is the second case, after the Brazilian hatchback Renault Sandero RS, of using “discs” on production B0 cars - exactly what buyers of Logans, Captures and Dusters dream about. And higher-profile base tires - dimensions 215/50 R17 category M+S - gave a slight increase in ground clearance: from 195 to 215 mm.
And that's not it. Heated front seats have become three-stage, and its buttons have moved from the seat cushion to the center console. The rear sofa is also heated, but in addition, the angle of its backrest has also been changed (to a more vertical one), which made it possible to move the cushion 25 mm back, increasing legroom.
And finally, XRAY Cross became the first Lada with a selector washer that changes the operating modes of the stabilization system. There are four of these modes: normal, sports, winter, and sand. Plus the fifth position is to turn off “stabilization”.
Many of these innovations (for example, heating keys and a rear seat) will later appear on regular XRAY hatchbacks, but there is no information yet on how much they will change the price. As well as how much the XRAY Cross itself will cost. It will go on sale at the end of this year, and judging by the amount of modifications, the “cross” surcharge is unlikely to be less than in the case of West sedans and station wagons.
