Lada 1119 (Lada Kalina Sport) - sales of a sports modification of the hatchback began in 2008. The Lada Kalina Sport model differs from the “civilian” version not only externally, but also technically. The car received the original false radiator grille, bumpers, and also got a small spoiler. The size of alloy wheels depends on the configuration and ranges from 14 to 15 inches. Inside, sportiness was emphasized by aluminum pedals, a dashboard with white scales, and front seats with developed lateral support.
For Lada Kalina Sport, two sixteen-valve engines of 1.4 (89 hp, 127 Nm) and 1.6 liters (98 hp, 145 Nm) are provided. Not only dynamic performance depends on the engine, but also the degree of "heating" of the chassis, steering and gearbox. On models with a powerful 98-horsepower unit, a stiffer suspension with “cut down” springs is installed. In addition, for a hatchback with a 1600 cc engine, “shortened” steering racks are provided (3.1 turns of the steering wheel from lock to lock instead of almost four) and the main gearbox pair (3.9 instead of 3.7), rear disc brakes, as well as 15 inch alloy wheels.
It is noteworthy that ABS and airbags are only available for versions with a 1.4-liter engine. But the external and internal decor of the models does not depend on the power plant and is the same in both cases.
In the spring of 2013, the model left the assembly line. In the near future, a successor to the hatchback, created already on the basis of Lada Kalina II.
