The Lada Niva is a legendary compact 4×4, known for its rugged simplicity and off-road prowess. Built with a tough body-on-frame design and short wheelbase, it handles rocky terrain, mud, and snow with ease, making it ideal for rural and mountainous areas. Despite its compact size, the Niva offers enough room for four passengers and a modest cargo area in the rear. While basic in terms of interior comfort and technology, the Niva’s practicality and durability make it a favorite among adventure seekers who prioritize off-road capability over luxury.
