The new Niva turned out to be very similar to the most popular crossover in the world

Niva’s photo hit the Internet after a major styling change. It is not difficult to guess that the well-known Chevrolet Niva is ahead of us. As you know, after General Motors broke off cooperation, now it’s just Niva.

Of course, the VAZ designers developed the Niva look with the Toyota RAV4 – the world’s most popular crossover – in mind. In addition, you can see the characteristics of the failed Niva II.

The front part of the car has been completely replaced – the Niva has new headlights, radiator grille, bumper, hood and fenders. The plastic body kit is also different. It should be noted that the photo shows the off-road version with a pipe.

It is also expected that the car will be redesigned and expanded with equipment. But under the hood, there will most likely be the familiar 1.7-liter 80-force engine. The new Niva will be officially presented in February.
