The lada Niva has various modifications and parts and is a cheap reliable vehicle that fits the post apocalypse theme, having various engine options body parts it can be modified into multiple configurations to fit any challenge be it a offroad rally jeep or a rock climber, or an asphalt speedster. Like the UAZ van it's still in production and has barely changed making it a legend of a vehicle.

The potential for interchangeable parts with the current Dada due to brand compatibility would be great

Even when it's still the same car from 1977, currently for a new Niva you have to pay 1,7 Million Rubel ≈ 19000 euro

I hear people compare it to the G wagon and the Land rover which cost way more and give a similar performance

You can rip the steering wheel off by pulling

Yikes, either way it is an iconic car

#

And loved by many

And hated by more

Where I'm at many drive it haven't heard complaints about its performance heck the lack of safety is more of a feature cuz when you die tou won't deal with the cost of surviving after an accident

83HP at 129 Nm Torque and 0-100 in 17 seconds...

#

When Russians wanna go real off-road to reach places the rather take UAZ 452, it has better off-road performance

#

And is still in a similar price range

#

That I totally agree with

#

It's an overall better vehicle but the fact its a van seems to push some people away

#

The old lada was cheap and fun to handle, now is now, the game takes place in a previous era so I though I'd offer an iconic vehicle to the Russian family

Your opinion is taken into account and respected, also Russians don't build for comfort nor for looks, their cars are purely for ruggedness and durability, I often see people with lada nivas UAZs and all other form of soviet cars around in good condition and the only complaint is its ugly and rides a bit rough unless you put in german seats.

without doing much research into the overall quality and what they were truly made for

Worst soviet car issue... to make it rust proof you gotta strip it bare and apply protective coating and then paint it again, past that their immortal

#

There's tons of ladas and Zil and Kamaz running around

#

and they are only meant to get you from point A to point B and back

#

not for comfort, unless it's a Volga
