XTA — Lada
A VIN that begins with XTA was built by AvtoVAZ in Russia. Decode a full XTA VIN below to get the exact make, model, engine and origin.
What XTA means
XTA is the World Manufacturer Identifier — the first three characters of every VIN, which identify who built the vehicle and where.
Russian Lada (Togliatti) — Niva, Granta, Vesta. (Absent from NHTSA vPIC.)
How the XTA prefix is built
Under ISO 3780, the three WMI characters break down like this:
“X” places the manufacturer in Europe.
“XT” identifies the assigning country: Russia.
“A” narrows it to AvtoVAZ.
Where Lada XTA vehicles are built
Vehicles with a XTA VIN are associated with AvtoVAZ, Russia. Note that a single carmaker uses different WMIs for different plants, so the XTA prefix points to this specific origin — not simply to the Lada brand.
