The VAZ-2101 "Zhiguli" , commonly nicknamed "Kopeyka" (for the smallest Soviet coin, 1/100 of the Ruble), widely exported to West under the Lada name. The car was a heavily modified and licence-built version of the Fiat 124 tailored for the Soviet Union and much of the Eastern Bloc. The lightweight Italian Fiat 124, had won the European Car of the Year award in 1967, sold under licence for Soviet production it was heavily modified to survive Russian driving conditions Among many changes, aluminium brake drums were added to the rear, and the original Fiat engine was dropped in favour of a newer design made by NAMI with a modern OHC, its suspension was raisedand the bodyshell made of thicker, heavier steel with reinforcement in key chassis areas
The VAZ-2101 (1970–1982) was the first of the Lada variants, powered by an 1198cc engine of 59bhp, a maximum speed of 140 km-h (87 mph) nd 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in about 20 seconds, the cars had soft suspension for local road conditions. The 2101 (and its first modifications) opened a new era in Russian motoring. Unfortunately, the Togliatti plant could not supply the consumer demand and people had to wait for years to get a chance to buy the car. Exports began 21 February 1971, to Yugoslavia, followed by Finland, Holland and Belgium. Cars were also exported to Cuba, where Raul Castro used one as his personal transport until 2006, Angola and Canada.
The 21012--right-hand drive saloon with the 1,198 cc (73.1 cu in) four, entered production 22 May 1973, for export to Japan, Australia, and Britain (which proved a very successful market). Production of the 1300cc version continued into 1988 when it was replaced by the updated Lada Riva
