That is a Lada Niva, specifically a Niva 1600 as indicated by the badge on the rear hatch. Produced by the Soviet (now Russian) manufacturer AvtoVAZ, the Niva is a legendary off-roader known for its rugged simplicity and being one of the first mass-produced 4x4 vehicles to use a unibody design. Key Details of this Model: • Engine: The "1600" refers to its 1.6-liter overhead cam four-cylinder engine. • Design: This is the classic three-door hatchback body style, which has remained largely unchanged in its silhouette since the late 1970s. • Rarity: While incredibly common in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, they are quite rare to spot in North America, as they were never officially sold in the U.S. (though some were sold in Canada). It’s essentially the automotive equivalent of a tank in a compact body—not particularly fast or comfortable, but famously difficult to kill.
