Chevrolet Niva Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2002–2009)

Chevrolet Niva Engines and Transmissions

Each Chevrolet Niva engine here is a gasoline four-cylinder driving all four wheels through a manual gearbox, as in the 1.7 MT and later 1.8 MT examples. This powertrain favours low-speed pulling and traction over outright speed, with a transfer case and locking centre differential in the drivetrain.

Chevrolet Niva Trims and Equipment

Chevrolet Niva trim levels sit on top of the mechanical version rather than changing it: the 1.7 MT is offered as GLC and GLS, which share the same engine and transmission. Higher equipment generally adds comfort and convenience items, so check each car's actual specification before buying.
