The next generation Lada Niva was teased by the company not too long ago. The 2024 model comes with modern tech while also being based on a fresh platform acquired from none other than the French manufacturer, Renault. However, it is unlikely that the off-road monster gets a diesel-powered engine for the new model. Reports suggest that the Niva will only be released with a petrol version, skipping the much sought-after diesel variant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, that hasn’t stopped aftermarket tuners from making their adjustments. A Russian-based company has taken it upon themselves to revitalize the Lada Niva with a diesel engine, sourced from BMW. Yes, the Niva gets a BMW N47 diesel powertrain, which is a welcome alternative for off-road enthusiasts. Diesel-powered engines provide a lot of torque \u2013the perfect accessory for an off-road adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine is under kill considering there are much more powerful alternatives available for the swap. Anyway, the modification is commendable as the Russian company has done a lot of work to fit the inline-4 powertrain into the engine bay. The shocks have been changed, the engine foundation fortified and other tweaks have been made to accommodate the new guest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The N47 is mated to an automatic transmission taken from the BMW 3 Series, which takes power to the rear wheels. The set-up produces 250 hp, allowing the Niva to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 6.0 seconds. The massive 20-inch wheels help out a lot with this matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lada Niva also gets a few upgrades in the interior such as the dual climate control and a modern infotainment system, both taken from BMW vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no price tag on the SUV as of now but you can expect the modification to cost a lot considering the changes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
