All models are equipped with a five-speed gearbox, which, depending on the type of engine installed, may have its own designation. So, on cars with a 1.8-liter and 2.0-liter engine without a turbocharger, a VEZ / 5 gearbox is installed. If the engine is equipped with a turbocharger, then the ME5K gearbox is installed. Recently, a gearbox with the designation ML5E has been installed on cars with a turbocharger. The same gearbox is installed on vehicles with a 16-valve engine.
Vehicles with diesel engines are also equipped with different models of gearboxes. On vehicles with a 1.9-liter diesel engine, the ME5K gearbox is installed, however, the gear ratio is selected specifically for these models. Since about 1997, ML5E gearboxes have been installed instead of ME5K gearboxes. As for cars with diesel engines of 2.1 liters, they are equipped with ML5E gearboxes.
All vehicles are front wheel drive.
