Recently, the AvtoVAZ company from Russia has released a light upgrade version of the Lada Niva lineup. This model continues to have 2 versions: Legend and Travel. In which, Lada Niva Legend owns a classic design like a car born decades ago. Travel is a more modern and premium version of this car line.
The highlight of the Lada Niva Legend 2024 lies in the ABS anti-lock braking system. In mid-2022, this car model was cut off the ABS system as well as rear collision airbags amid the escalating conflict between Russia and Ukraine. After over 1 year of being cut off, this very basic safety feature finally returns to the Russian car model.

The ABS system of this car line is produced by the Pegasus factory in Kostroma, Russia. However, in reality, this system has its origin from China.
It is known that this is not the only upgrade of the Lada Niva Legend 2024. Besides, this off-road car model with a classic design is also equipped with an engine that meets Euro 5 emission standards. Previously, the engine of the Lada Niva Legend only met Euro 2 emission standards, which applied since 1996.

However, compared to other new models, the engine of the Lada Niva Legend 2024 is still considered outdated. The Euro 5 emission standard has been in effect since 2009. By 2014, the Euro 6 emission standard has been applied. It is expected that by 2025, the Euro 7 emission standard will start to take effect.
These changes have caused the selling price of Lada Niva Legend 2024 to increase from 829,900 Rubles (about 218 million VND) to 927,500 Rubles (about 244 million VND).
Similarly, the Lada Niva Travel 2024 version has also been slightly improved. This version has been supplemented with the ABS anti-lock braking system after being cut off last year. At the same time, the Lada Niva Travel 2024 also has a cruise control system with speed limit function, an integrated backlight meter and a 2-tone alloy wheels set.

Of course, the selling price of Lada Niva Travel 2024 is also higher than the Legend version. Specifically, the car has a starting price of 1,215 million Rubles (about 319 million VND), increasing by 16,100 Rubles compared to the previous version.

In the past, Lada Niva once had its heyday in the Western European market. At one point, Lada Niva accounted for up to 40% of the market share of the 4-wheel drive segment in this market.
