Chassis modifications should not suffer, though restyling Lada Vesta may translate into B0 platform, the alliance Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi. The scheme is the same as in Lada Xray Cross, where the model combines the structure elements of Lada Vesta and B0 platform. The front suspension is applied independent suspension (similar to the used Vesta) with racks McPherson, L-shaped "vestovskimi" lever and an antiroll bar, and the rear "Loganovsky" semidependent beam. Also Lada Xray Cross was reinforced subframe and electric power steering.
