Exterior

The new car looks very attractive, quite modern and fashionable, and all thanks to the renewed interior and exterior. For the car "Lada X Ray", the body profile is more important than ever, because consumers have long become bored with the appearance of past generations, not unlike each other. But this model breathed new life into the image of the domestic car.

High landing of the hatchback and the raised forehead, are executed in original and remembered "Х-style". The body on the perimeter is decorated with chrome zigzags, which just remind the letter X. Optics auto is equipped with beautiful LED lights with integrated chains.

The five-door sides of the car "Lada X Ray Cross" are crowned with easily recognizable punches in the X-shaped style, and the sloping roof adds to the structure a bit of dynamism and all the same freshness. The windshield has a competent inclination, and the overhangs are not as wide as in previous versions, which makes the car more sporty.

Interior

At the car "Lada X Ray" the salon looks quite presentable, noble and "adult". The modern toolkit is unpretentious in its architecture, but more than informative due to the use of the already proven "three wells" design system.

On the right side of the panel is a multifunctional block of the on-board computer. The steering wheel is made in four-spoke stylistics with a pronounced relief, and more expensive modifications are equipped with multimedia system control keys.

Seats

The front seats are very nice looking with good support and a bulging half-cup. Many car owners note in their reviews successful adjustment mechanisms with a large range of walking.

After the passenger seats have been removed, the trunk will be a perfectly flat platform, where the placement of the cargo is not hampered even by the arches of the rear wheels.
