These VAZ-designed engines were updated to meet Euro5 emissions standards.[6] The 1.6-liter Renault-Nissan HR16 petrol engine 110 hp (81 kW) was also offered initially but was discontinued from the range in July 2016.[7]

The prototype was produced by Vercarmodel Saro in Italy,[11] at a cost of $1,000,000.[12] The crossover receives an equally edgy styling complete with a leather coated seating arrangement, along with a futuristic dashboard and infotainment system.[13] It has a stylish exterior, featuring a pair of long and thin headlights. The front grille bears a resemblance to an “X”.
The name has two meanings: as an X-ray (a form of electromagnetic radiation) and as an abbreviation (X - crossover class, Recreation, Activity, Youth).[14]
According to Justin Cupler of TopSpeed, AvtoVAZ kept its Lada XRAY SUV under "such tight lock and key that it took all of us aback when it was debuted at the Moscow Motor Show".[15] It was mentioned that Lada XRAY’s cabin also continues the progressive design of the exterior.[16]
