Ngowe-1970, ubungqina bobukhosi bobukhosi beVAZ bavela kumgca wendibano ye- Volga Automobile Plant eTogliatti. Kwakuyimoto encinci 2101, okanye, njengoko kubizwa ngabantu, "ipenny". Ikopi elayisenisiweyo yenye yemifanekiso ye-Italian Fiat. Umgudu wokuqala wabuyela kwinqabana lamawaka amaninzi aseSoviet. Imoto yayimabiza, kodwa inenhlanhla eyayiyifumene ayizange ibone iindleko. Emva kwamaMuscovites kunye neZaporozhtsy, i "kopeck" yayikukhanya ewindow. Ingaphakathi elincinci, ngokukhawuleza, injini ekhawulezayo, engabonakaliyo kwinqanaba, imoto ibe yiphupha labaninzi.
Ngonyaka kamva iVAZ yakhulula enye imodeli, yayisisithuba senqwelo esesikhululo esine-undercarriage. Ukususela kwi-VAZ 2102, iimpawu zobugcisa eziphindaphindiweyo umzekelo 2101, zazingabantu abanomdla. Kwimithwalo yempahla ingasetyenziselwa isiqingatha sesithandathu semithwalo yempahla, imithombo yamandla esemva kokumiswa imele ikwazi ukumelana nomthwalo. Ngendlela evulekileyo evulekileyo, umgangatho womgangatho wawuphezulu ngaphezu komnyango, ngoko nayiphi na umthwalo onokulayishwa kwaye ulayishwe ngokukhutshwa, okungabalulekanga. Ngokomzekelo, kwiVAZ elandelayo i-2104, ukuvulwa kweso sihlahla sele sikhulisiwe ngaphantsi komgangatho, kwaye oku kwadala ubunzima obukhulu ekulayeleni.
Ngoko ke, imoto entsha iVAZ 2102 yakhiwe kwiiyunithi ezivanyweyo kunye neeyunithi 2101. Injini yindlela ende, i-cylinder enye, in-line, i-carburetor. I-block, i-compact block ye-cylinders enezixhobo ezincinci, ukusuka kwinqanaba elincinci lentsimbi. Ukuthunyelwa kwegesi ephezulu, i-valve. Kwi-camshaft ukujikeleza kwasasazwa kwi- crankshaft ngetambo ephindwe kabini, nge-spipcket ye-peripheral nge-footer shoe. Ekupheleni kwe-camshaft kwakukho iigesi ezimbini. Injini yayisebenza kwimodi emine yokubetha, iipavini ziqhutywe ziinqwelo, zixhaswe ngeenkonzo ezizodwa. Iipavini zinezixhobo ezimbini zokubuya.
Zonke iinjini zeemoto zeVAZ zazixhaphake kakhulu, loo ndlela yokusebenza yayisisigxina sobomi beqela le- piston kunye ne-crankshaft. Kwi-rpm engaphelelekanga, inkqubo yokunikezelwa kweoli ye-injini yalahlekelwa uxinzelelo, iinxalenye ezihambayo azizange zithole i-lubrication eyaneleyo. Ukutshatyalaliswa kwakuqhelekileyo, isiphaluka sombane weemoto asizange ihluke kumgangatho osemgangathweni. Injini yokupholisa i- VAZ 2102 yayingumsebenzi wesibini. Umlambo wokupholisa wawusasazeka ngokuqhubekayo, uqhutywe kwinqanaba lempompo ye- centrifugal ene-plastiki. Urhulumente wobushushu wagcinwa yi-thermostat kunye nompu, ukubandakanywa kwawo kwakuxhomekeke ekutshiseni kwesikhombisi ekamelweni elingaphantsi kwe-radiator.
Ukujikeleza kwe-injini ye-crankshaft yadluliselwa ngebhokisi yegarari kwi-shaft ye-propeller enee-two crossings crossings, emva koko kwindlela ye-hypoid ye-axle axle. Inkqubo ye-braking VAZ 2102 yayingumatshini-wesibini, iivili zangaphambili zixhotywe ngamabhuleki e-disc, emva - kunye neebhere.
Umatshini wawungqiqweni. Ingaphandle yayimanje, nangona yayingafani naziphi na izinto ezizodwa. Kwakunokwenzeka ukuba u-VAZ 2102 ulungelelanise, umzekelo, abanikazi abathile kwi-bumper yangasemva bongeza enye enye-yavela i-bumper emibini, kwaye yayimangalisa kakhulu. Uphahla lwe-VAZ 2102, ingakumbi ukuba imoto yayimhlophe, idityaniswe ngesikhumba somnyama esimnyama, imoto ngexesha elifanayo yaba yinto enhle. Kwangexesha elide i-VAZ 2102 yaveliswa kwinguqulelo yayo kwaye ya rhoxiswa kwimveliso kuphela ngo-1985.
