Features of the ZAZ Vida engine sedan and hatchback

For the first time, the Zaz Vida car was presented to the public in 2012 in the form of a sedan. In this variation, the model is available with three types of gasoline engine to choose from (production, volume, maximum torque and power are indicated in brackets):

• 1.5i 8 valves (GM, 1498 cm³, 128 Nm, 84 hp);

• 1.4i 16 valves (GM, 1399 cm³, 130 Nm, 109 hp).

All engines have an injector that performs distribution injection. The gas distribution mechanism drive is belt driven (enough for approximately 60 thousand kilometers). The number of cylinders/valves per cycle is R4/2 (for 1.5i 8 V) or R4/4 (for 1.5i 16 V and 1.4i 16 V).

There is also another variation of the engine for the ZAZ Vida sedan (export) - 1,3i (MEMZ 307). Moreover, if previous versions run on 92 gasoline, then for the 1,3i engine version it is required that the octane number of gasoline be at least 95.

Are there other engine options?

Zaporozhye Automobile Building Plant offers to install HBO on any of the models in the factory version. Along with a significant advantage in reducing the cost of fuel for cars, there are several disadvantages:

• the maximum torque is reduced (for example, for VIDA Cargo from 128 Nm to 126 Nm);

It should also be noted that the model in which HBO is installed from the factory is more expensive than the base one.
