One of the more impressive debuts from Russia’s local auto industry at the ongoing 2012 Moscow International Auto Salon is the Lada X Ray, a concept for a small, three-door crossover model.

You have probably already seen the pictures but now we have two videos of the prototype to share with you including one that shows the car in motion on the road.

The styling of the X Ray is the brainchild of the company’s new head designer, Steve Mattin, who has previously worked at Mercedes-Benz on various models including the ML-Class and GL-Class, before he joined Volvo in 2004 where he oversaw the designs of S60, V60, and XC60 concept.

While AvtoVAZ Lada doesn’t have any current plans to produce the crossover study, its styling is believed to influence the company’s future portfolio.

We’ll remind you that the Renault and Nissan Alliance currently own 25 percent of AvtoVAZ, Russia’s biggest automaker, but plan to invest about $750 million to take a 75 percent holding in the company. The deal will come into force by 2014.
