Lada 110

The Lada 110, also known as the VAZ-2110, is a compact car built by AvtoVAZ from 1995 to 2009 that spawned the Lada 111 estate and the Lada 112 hatchback. Its prototype, the 300 series, was created in 1987 and shaped for aerodynamics at Zuffenhausen in Germany with Porsche engineers. The first photographs appeared in 1990 and the car was shown at the Tolyatti factory in 1991, but an economic crisis delayed the first production car until 27 June 1995. It had a 1.6 litre engine of about 90 hp, electric windows, power steering and galvanised body panels, with 8-valve engines first and a 16-valve engine later. It was very successful in Russia, and in 2007 it was restyled and relaunched as the Lada Priora.
