Lada Nadezhda
The Lada Nadezhda or VAZ-2120 "Nadezhda" ("Hope", also a Slavic female name) (Ru:Лада Надежда) is a seven-person four-wheel-drive minivan, produced by the Russian automaker AvtoVAZ between 1998 and 2006.
The VAZ-2120 was the first minivan produced by the Russian auto industry and was based on the VAZ-2131 Niva line of sport utility vehicles. It was first shown to the public at the 1997 Moscow Auto Show. Built in small numbers, it could not be sold at a competitive price and did not meet with commercial success. Annual production maxed out at around 1,500 units, with a total of about 8,000 examples having been built before it was cancelled in August 2006. Plans to build the Nadezhda on a dedicated, rear-wheel drive chassis came to naught.
AvtoVAZ' OPP (ОПП) Pilot Industrial Production subsidiary, located in Tolyatti, produced the Nadezhda to order. The Nadezhda was discontinued as VAZ preferred to use the production capacity to build the 112 Coupé, which could be sold at a higher profit margin.
The pre-production examples used the twin round headlamps of the VAZ-2106, set in organically shaped housings. These were unable to meet newer legislation and on the production models, the headlamps from the Lada 110 were used.
