AvtoVAZ has started equipping LADA Niva Travel SUVs with a genuine leather interior with a LADA Granta Sport sports leather steering wheel. The updated Niva cars have already appeared in the customized campaign of LADA dealerships.

It is known that the model with natural domestic leather upholstery went on sale in November 2023, when the cost of such an option was 120 thousand rubles. At the end of 2024, leather upholstery became unavailable, but now it has returned to the Niva Travel version, complete with a leather steering wheel from Granta Sport. Sales of the updated Niva are expected to start in May this year.
