Vaz 2106 Taxi

The VAZ-2106 Zhiguli/Lada 1600/Lada 1500L/Lada 1300SL is a four-door, five-seat passenger car with a sedan body style and rear-wheel drive. It is one of the most popular models from the Volga Automobile Plant.

When the production of the VAZ-2106 model began in 1976 at the Togliatti plant, which was adapted for domestic operating conditions from the 1972 RAT 124 Speciale, no one could have imagined that it would become the most popular and mass-produced vehicle from the Volga Automobile Plant.

"The Six" differs from the VAZ-2103 with a more powerful 80-horsepower VAZ-2106 engine with a displacement of 1.6 liters, a different electrical system layout, and modified body and interior design. For instance, the front dual headlights received plastic "glasses," the radiator grille was redesigned, different bumpers with plastic "fangs" and "corners" were installed, and the rear lights were combined with a license plate light, along with plastic "gaskets" between the radiator grille and headlights. Compared to the "Moskvich" cars, these five-seat sedans, which boasted better dynamics and a truly comfortable interior, represented the pinnacle of comfort and prestige for many car enthusiasts in the USSR. By the late 1970s, the VAZ-2106 quickly gained a reputation as a "luxurious" and fast car, albeit more expensive and less "practical" than other "Zhiguli" models. Its respectable dynamics for the time (a top speed of 150 km/h and 0 to 100 km/h in 16 seconds), contoured seats with headrests, a dashboard with a tachometer, and excellent

sound insulation were certainly appreciated.
