[Auto] Lada Largus Cross: This is the Russian version of the European Dacia Logan MCV

[#Steeven.™]

High competition in the automotive industry forces manufacturers to implement crazy ideas. Europe and the US have reached a level of development that forces them to update their models every so often. However, there are still regions of the globe where customers are not so demanding. And this is where the picaresque arises and the desire to make profitable the investments that they carry out when developing new products.

The Renault Group is one of the most astute in this regard. For example we have Dacia and the reuse that the Romanian firm has carried out of disused Renault components. Well, now that they are about to launch a new generation, using the latest technology they give another twist to one of their models. The Lada Largus Cross lands in Russia as a playful and jovial proposal from the veteran Dacia Logan MCV.

The Lada Largus Cross will arrive in Russia in mid-2021

To recall a bit, suffice it to say that the Dacia Logan MCV has been on the market for a decade. This model, like its saloon counterpart, is based on an even older platform, so its safety is really low. But this is not a problem, since the Russian market is governed by a code in which the price is the only variable that determines the purchase, or not, of a model. Therefore, the Renault Group is committed to amortizing it more.

And what have they done to give it a new life? Well, easy and simple: redesign your front and offer it with an air to any road. This type of version is very well received in this market and the new image gives it greater freshness. It stands out for including a front where the "X" shape of the chrome stands out. It is similar to the sight on the Lada Vision Concept or the simpler Granta and Vesta.

For now details on the revamped Lada Largus Cross are still scant. Those responsible for the Russian firm have published a single official image and the date it will reach the local market. As they say, it will be available in the commercial network during the first half of next year 2021. The mechanical offer available is still unknown, although it is likely to remain with respect to its predecessor.
