VAZ 1111 Ока I (1111) gallery (1988–2008)

The VAZ-1111 Oka (also manufactured as SeAZ-1111 and KamAZ-1111) was a Soviet and Russian microcar designed as an ultra-compact city vehicle in the A-segment. Built on a dedicated front-wheel-drive platform with a transverse engine layout, it featured MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion-beam rear setup, housed in a practical three-door hatchback body. The Oka offered impressive interior space utilization despite its minuscule dimensions and unmatched fuel efficiency. The initial powertrain was a 0.65-liter two-cylinder carburetor engine producing 29 horsepower (derived from the VAZ-2108 four-cylinder unit), which was later upgraded to a 0.75-liter unit (VAZ-11113) generating 33 horsepower, both paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox. Later SeAZ restylings introduced a 1.0-liter three-cylinder Chinese TJ engine with electronic fuel injection and a 5-speed manual transmission, alongside refreshed front fascia styling and revised cabin plastics. AvtoVAZ also produced small batches of an experimental electric version called the VAZ-1111E. The Oka was distributed across Russia, the CIS, and saw niche exports to select international markets.
