The owner of a Lada Vesta since 2015 spent a million rubles on maintaining the car in 10 years, according to journalists from the "Za Rulem" publication.

Maintenance costs for mileages of 166,800 - 175,000 km amounted to 46,647 rubles, the share of gas stations here is 36,332 rubles. Total expenses exceeded one million - 1,020,811 rubles. The cost of one kilometer of mileage is 5.83 rubles.
Replacing the Akom battery, which lasted only three years, cost 6390 rubles. The ball joints were replaced at a mileage of 170 thousand kilometers. Moreover, only one failed - the boot was torn. A pair of new ones cost 1500 rubles.
