"Nexia" is a fairly popular car in the CIS. The car was produced from 1995 to 2015. in two generations. Most of the models of the last years of production were produced in Uzbekistan at the UzDau plant. The company is now called Ravon. They no longer release "Nexia" in their usual way. But the old Daewoo was replaced by a no less interesting car - the Ravon R-3. The car has been mass-produced since 2016 and is officially supplied to Russia. Also, production has been established in Kazakhstan. What are the technical characteristics, reviews and cost of Ravon Nexia R-3? For answers to these and many other questions, see our today's article.

Design

As noted by the reviews of the owners, "Ravon Nexia R-3" is a redesigned "Chevrolet Aveo" in the back of T250. Outwardly, these machines are very similar. You can compare their design by the photo.

Reviews of "Ravon Nexia R-3" are very ambiguous. Some say that the Uzbeks simply plagiarized an old Chevrolet from the 2000s. Others argue that thanks to the common platform, there will be no problems finding spare parts (including body parts).

Outwardly, these machines are very similar. So, the Uzbeks changed only the front part. The Ravon Nexia R-3 has more angular headlights and a different radiator grill. The bumper turned out to be embossed, with "evil" bevels and wide foglights. Head optics and PTFs use halogen light. As noted by the reviews of the owners, the Ravon Nexia R-3 car has weak optics.

As for the rest of the body, they are all identical to the old Aveo - a sideline, smooth roof contours and a completely copied rear end. At the rear, the Ravon can only be distinguished by nameplates and an emblem on the trunk lid. Headlights, bumper and other elements are completely interchangeable with Chevrolet Aveo.

In general, the appearance of the Ravon car does not cause disgust. Yes, the car has a slightly outdated design. Indeed, in this form, "Chevrolet" was produced more than ten years ago. But considering the cost of the car (we'll talk about the price at the end of the article), many mistakes can be forgiven. For those who want to stand out from the stream, "Ravon R-3" is clearly not suitable - they note the reviews. But it's a great, hassle-free car for everyday use.

Body

Many owners complain about the quality of the metal on Ravon. It is compared to foil. The body crumples strongly at the slightest impact. In the event of an accident, the geometry of the car is significantly disturbed. As for the paintwork, it's pretty good. But after an accident, the damaged area should be painted urgently. Pits of corrosion quickly form on bare metal.

Dimensions, clearance

As noted by the reviews, the new "Ravon Nexia R-3" is a very compact car that allows you to maneuver in city traffic without any problems. The car belongs to the B-class. The body length is 4.33 meters, the width is 1.5 meters, and the height is 1.69 meters. With such dimensions, there are no problems finding a parking space. This is a big plus - the reviews about the car are noted. "Ravon Nexia R-3" in addition has good ground clearance. On standard 14-inch wheels, the distance to the underbody is a whopping 16 and a half centimeters. A short base (a little less than two and a half meters) contributes to excellent cross-country ability. On such a "Nexia" it is not scary to drive into some remote place or a summer cottage. This is a versatile vehicle.

Salon: first acquaintance

Let's move inside the Ravon Nexia P-3 four-door car. Immediately, we note that the doors open at a large angle and there are no problems with landing. What do the reviews say about the Ravon Nexia R-3 car? The visibility inside is simply excellent, thanks to the high seating position and the huge windshield. There are practically no dead zones here. As for the ergonomics, it is at the level of the old "Nexias" - the correct geometry of the fit, the convenient location of the control buttons. Finishing materials - plastic and fabric. In budget trim levels, the interior is monochrome. In more expensive versions, the manufacturer offers a two-tone interior with beige upholstery. Reviews say that this combination of shades gives the car a more upmarket look. The pure black interior looks gloomy - say the reviews. "Ravon Nexia R-3" should be taken only with a light interior.

The front panel of the sedan has similar features to the Chevrolet Aveo. Take at least what is on the center console. However, customer reviews of "Ravon Nexia R-3" insist that the radio tape recorder can be easily connected to a smartphone via "Bluetooth". There is also a USB port. The radio tape recorder supports most modern audio formats. The speakers of the "Nexia" are of frankly low quality. You can listen to the radio on them, but you should definitely not count on surround sound. Owner reviews say that the steering wheel has no adjustments. The same problem was observed on both the Daewoo Nexia and the Chevrolet Aveo. Additionally, there are buttons on the steering wheel. With them, you can adjust the volume of the music. But they often do not have to be used - the "twist" of the radio is right at hand.

Let's move on to the dashboard. It consists of four arrow indicators. This is a speedometer, tachometer, as well as a fuel level and engine temperature gauge. At the bottom is a small on-board computer. He also counts the daily and total mileage. What do the reviews say about the Ravon Nexia R-3 car? The dashboard is very informative, but the on-board computer display is very archaic. These "calculators" were installed on machines from the 90s.

Seats, trunk

The driver's seat, regardless of the configuration, is made of fabric. There are several adjustments here, but many do not succeed in setting the seat in height normally. On the side there is also a "lamb" for adjusting the angle of inclination of the pillow. The design of the seats is identical to the old Aveo and Nexia. Sitting comfortably, but in 2017 I want more comfort - say the reviews. Due to the narrow body, it is physically impossible to place the armrest between the front seats. It was easier with Aveo.

The back row is designed for three people. But due to the one and a half meter width, only two people manage to fit comfortably. The rear sofa is close to the front row and tall passengers can rest their knees on the back of the seats. But if we compare "Ravon" with classmates (this is "Renault Logan" and "Lada Granta"), this problem is not only for Nexia. All B-class car owners face such a disaster. But there is enough space above your head with a margin.

As for the luggage compartment, its volume is 376 liters. In this respect, Ravon loses to its competitors. The same "Logan" has a trunk volume of exactly 400 liters. What are the disadvantages of "Ravon Nexia R-3"? Owner reviews say that the back of the rear sofa is not completely transformed. Moreover, there is no ski hatch for transporting long loads (and there was one on the old Nexias). In the lower part, the trunk opening is greatly narrowed due to the large lamps. You need to load the thing very carefully - say the reviews.

Build quality

What are the disadvantages of "Ravon Nexia R-3"? The owners' reviews repeatedly repeat about the poor-quality assembly of the cabin. Take at least the gaps between the mating parts. They "walk" everywhere, and the plastic linings quickly fall off. Many criticize Ravon for the poor location of the USB port. It is located in the parking brake area. To connect your smartphone to it, you will have to be distracted from the road.

Another disadvantage of the Ravon Nexia R-3 car, which is noted by the owners' reviews, is the narrow pockets in the doors. This problem was also on the "Aveo" in the 250th body, but the Uzbeks did not eliminate this drawback. It is difficult to put even a liter bottle of water in this pocket.

The plastic overlays that cover the front sills often fall off. Also, owner reviews note a significant difference in the gaps between the gearbox selector cover and the black glossy pad.

It is fair to say that the build quality on the Ravon Gentra was even worse. In addition to the walking gaps, there was squeaky plastic and a pungent smell - the cabin reeked of phenol. "Nexia R-3" does not have such features, which is an undoubted advantage. Uzbeks are working on mistakes.

Engine

What are the technical characteristics of "Ravon Nexia R-3"? The owners' reviews point out the following drawback - the line of power units consists of one in-line four-cylinder engine. This is an atmospheric S-TES engine that meets the Euro-5 environmental standard. The unit is distinguished by a timing chain drive and an aluminum cylinder head. The timing mechanism is 16-valve. Block - cast iron, injection - distributed, with variable exhaust and intake phases.

This power unit has good technical characteristics. With a volume of 1485 cubic centimeters, the Uzbeks managed to remove 107 horsepower from it. The torque of the unit is 141 Nm at 3.8 thousand revolutions. Reviews note the high reliability of this unit. The motor is difficult to overheat, and it needs overhaul not earlier than after 300 thousand kilometers.

Transmission

Depending on the configuration, Ravon Nexia can be equipped with two types of gearboxes:

• Five-speed mechanics.
• Six-speed automatic.

The latter was borrowed from Chevrolet Cobalt. This box has already proven itself on the good side. Reviews about her are only positive. The transmission has good efficiency and gives the Nexia good acceleration dynamics. As for the mechanics, it is practically eternal - oil is filled for the entire service life, and the clutch wears out only up to 150 thousand kilometers. The resource of both boxes is comparable to the engine. During operation, these transmissions do not require additional intervention (on automatic transmissions, it is possible to change the oil every 60 thousand kilometers).

Dynamics

Is 107 horsepower a lot or a little? As noted by the reviews, this is quite enough for the B-class. The curb weight of the Ravon Nexia RZ is 1100 kilograms - the car is very light. Taken together, this gives good dynamic performance. Acceleration to hundreds on the "mechanics" is 12.2 seconds. With "automatic" this parameter is 0.5 seconds longer. The maximum speed of the Ravon Nexia RZ car is 180 kilometers per hour. In the city, these characteristics are quite enough (especially considering that the Ravon is a budget car).

Fuel consumption

Along with the good dynamics of the "Ravon Nexia R-3", reviews note good fuel efficiency. So, in city mode, this 1.5-liter engine on "mechanics" consumes 8 liters of gasoline. As noted by reviews, "Ravon Nexia R-3" with "automatic" consumes no more than 10 liters of 95th. If we compare this sedan with its competitors, it deserves the first place in the list of the most economical cars. For comparison: "Logan" on the "automatic" can burn up to 14 liters of gasoline in the city. The owners are simply horrified by these indicators!

Chassis

As we said earlier, the Ravon Nexia R-3 is built on the basis of the old Chevrolet Aveo. Therefore, many components and assemblies (including the suspension) migrated to the "Uzbek". An independent suspension with spring struts of the MacPherson type is installed in front. At the rear is a semi-dependent beam with coil springs and telescopic monotube shock absorbers. Also "Ravon Nexia R-3" is equipped with a stabilizer bar.

The steering gear is a hydraulic booster rack. The latter is already available as standard. But the brakes are combined. There are disc mechanisms in front, and drum mechanisms in the back. Moreover, drum brakes are present even on "Nexia" in a luxury configuration. But already in the "base" there are ABS sensors on each wheel.

What do the reviews say about the suspension and driving performance of the Ravon Nexia R-3 sedan?

The driving performance of the "Uzbek" is not too pleasing. The Ravon's suspension is frankly stiff. She is not able to work out bumps normally. Therefore, it is better to go around large bumps. In addition to this, reviews note the high noise level of the racks. This is partly the fault of poor sound insulation. At speeds over 80 kilometers per hour, the wind makes its way into the cabin. This is due to poor-quality door seals. There is also no soundproofing on the arches. There is a characteristic hum inside. However, the plastic inside does not creak. Despite the presence of two stabilizers, the vehicle's lateral stability is out of the question. According to the reviews, "Ravon Nexia R-3" is very afraid of lateral rolls. The car comes into corners with difficulty, especially at high speeds. This is due to the short wheelbase and tall body.

The only plus of this suspension is the low maintenance cost. The structure has been in operation since the 90s, and spare parts for Ravon cost a penny. and the front levers last a very long time. But the ball joints on the driving wheels break by 40 thousand. When buying, it is worth replacing the rubber with a higher profile one. This will save some of the suspension parts from stress and add some comfort.

Prices, configuration

Recently, the Uzbek manufacturer Ravon raised prices for its line of cars, including the Nexia RZ. But even so, the car remains very attractive in its price range. The cost of the initial configuration is 450 thousand rubles. This is the Comfort version. The basic list of options for the Ravon Nexia R-3 car includes:

• One airbag.
• One-color salon.
• Hydraulic power steering.
• Audio system with two speakers and USB connector.
• Fog lights.
• On-board computer.
• Mechanical windows.
• ABS system.
• Full size spare wheel.
• 14 '' stamped wheels and decorative hubcaps.

It will be a sedan with a manual transmission. Versions with an automatic machine are available in the "Optimum" package. The cost of this version starts at 490 thousand rubles. For automatic transmission you will have to pay 40 thousand rubles. The list of options additionally includes:

• Power windows for the front doors (rear - on a mechanical drive).
• Air conditioning.
• Central locking.
• Electric mirrors.

The maximum configuration is called "Elegance". Its initial cost is 530 thousand rubles. It will be a manual transmission version. For the machine, as in the previous case, you will have to pay 40 thousand rubles. The Elegance package has the following set of options:

• Electric windows for all doors.
• Second airbag.
• Music with four speakers.
• Two-tone interior.
• 15 "alloy wheels (however the spare wheel will still be stamped at 14").

The advantages and disadvantages of the Ravon Nexia P3 2017-2018 in a new body are revealed based on feedback from real owners. More detailed pros and cons of the Ravon Nexia R3 with mechanics and automatic transmission can be found in the stories below:

Owner reviews

The internal combustion engine is torquey at the bottom, freely allows you to stay in the stream and maneuver, but accelerates extremely reluctantly. The box on the Raveon R3 is excellent. At a speed of 120 km / h in 6th gear on an odometer of 3,000 rpm. Switches smoothly, not brooding, I like

Hodovka on a solid four. In sharp turns at high speed it is impossible to enter, the roll and the feeling that the car starts to demolish. It is better to go around deep holes by the side - it breaks. In general, it works well, it transfers vibrations to the body at a minimum, with a bad road, nothing squeaks in the cabin.

Shumka. She's gone. Need to do. Pebbles hit, thorns are heard. The engine is almost inaudible (up to 3,000), if higher, it is audible. The driver's seat is high, pockets, trays for change, cup holders and emergency gang are very conveniently located, with your right hand you can blindly reach for all this without being distracted from the road - this is a plus.

The music is bad. The multi-wheel is a C grade, because the keys are multifunctional, there are only three of them and the volume control under them. There are no speakers (from the word at all), the radio tape recorder has not yet climbed into adjustments, but the radio tape recorder itself pleased - very convenient, it clings to the phone via bluetooth quickly and without problems.

The optics pleases, the daytime is good, the long-range is excellent, there are running lights when ignited with an automatic machine, dimensions, foglights and rear running lights. The electrically adjustable headlight range has four positions.

Video review

Light and powerful car, but the impression is spoiled by some unimaginable jambs. So, for me personally, a disastrously uncomfortable seat and the ergonomics of landing, just some kind of horror.

The first MOT is an oil change from work, the cost is 6,100 rubles. Unsuccessful interior plastic - scratches very easily. Small trunk. I put the usual speakers in the regular places in the rear shelf, connected the standard wires. The radio tape recorder began to turn off.

Where can one buy?

In the morning, until the interior warms up, a cricket lives in the front panel, but for me this is not critical. Fuel consumption dropped after running-in - 8.0-8.5 liters per 100 km with an aggressive driving style.

Oven - fries, the car is warm. Chips appeared on the front (bumper and hood), so the advice to future owners is to book and do not listen to anyone!

I will summarize the brief operation: I am satisfied with the car, everything in it suits me, if the question of buying arose again, I would have chosen Ravon P3 without hesitation.

Review of Ravon Nexia P3 1.5 automatic 2017 onwards

On the run of 1,600 km, nothing rattles, the interior is pleasant, ergonomics and aesthetic perception are also in order - I expected worse! The suspension is impenetrable - a lying policeman and pits drives through 40-60 km / h without problems. There is no serious kick down, but the dynamics both in the city and on the highway is good, the clearance of 165 mm is sufficient for ordinary situations. I recommend the car for taxi drivers and families as a normal reliable budget car.

The lack of soundproofing is disappointing. It does not exist as such at all, at MOT I will carry out the installation of lockers-liners in the lower body part (primarily arched) and additional noise insulation, otherwise it is unpleasant when, after 80 km / h, the car starts singing songs in the ear from under the arches or doors ... Since 30% of the time I drive on dirt country roads, I can forgive the manufacturer for the noise of gravel, but I give a two for the noise insulation under the arches and the hood.

Victor, review of Ravon Nexia R3 1.5 (107 HP) automatic transmission 2017

The appearance of the "Engine Error" (Check Engine) badge on a number of Daewoo models, including the Nexia, is a fairly common situation and can be dictated by many reasons.

Some of them can seriously affect the performance of the powertrain, while others may be invisible. Nevertheless, regardless of the cause of the alarm, it makes sense to immediately address it.

Check Engine error - how to determine the cause of the alarm?

Immediately, we note that it is almost impossible to independently diagnose the cause of the signal on the dashboard without the presence of an on-board computer. If the BC is installed, it is possible to directly view the information and engine error codes. If it is absent, the only way is to diagnose the engine at a service center.

In the process of diagnostics, the wizard, through a special service connector, connects a computer with special software, which extracts and visualizes information from the memory of the Daewoo Nexia electronic control unit.

The simplest case

Separately, it should be said that the appearance of the Check Engine may be due to the usual failure of electronics, low-quality fuel and other reasons. In this case, you can try to "reset" the electronic unit by removing the negative terminal from the battery for 10 minutes. If the error persists, then this means that diagnostics is still necessary.

Check Engine light up: a list of the most common malfunctions

As a rule, the following malfunctions become the cause of the appearance of the Check Engine indicator:

1. Error in the operation of the lambda probe (oxygen sensor). This sensor is responsible for analyzing the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gases of the car, adjusting the fuel supply accordingly and providing optimal fuel economy parameters. A large number of factors can cause its breakdown - from technical defects to poor quality gasoline. If the error codes indicate a malfunction, the sensor requires replacement. It should be remembered that it is imperative to replace the sensor, since a change in the composition of the exhaust gases associated with its malfunction can lead to premature failure of the catalyst - a very expensive element of the exhaust system.
2. Breakage in the catalyst. The catalyst is responsible for cleaning the exhaust gases and ensuring that the Nexia complies with current environmental standards for CO emissions. The cause of malfunctions in the work is, for the most part, the low quality of domestic gasoline and the untimely passage of routine maintenance. The catalyst itself is quite expensive, and some motorists resort to removing it by installing a "blende" - a home-made device in which the "Check" does not light up. It is not recommended to use such tricks due to the difficulties that may arise when passing a state technical inspection (the content of harmful substances in the exhaust will increase sharply).
3. Failure of the mass air flow sensor, which regulates the air supply to the engine injection system. Such a breakdown leads to interruptions in the operation of the power unit, caused by the depletion or enrichment of the mixture and is accompanied by "floating" revolutions, jerking of the car in motion, etc.
4. Malfunctioning spark plugs or wiring. Interruptions associated with wear and tear of high-voltage wires and spark plugs are often accompanied by an engine error.

These reasons are the most common reason for the indicator triggering, but they are far from the only ones. On the 8-valve Nexia power unit with a working volume of one and a half liters (as well as on Chevrolet Lanos / Zaz Chance cars with the same engine), there are frequent cases when the "Check" lights up when the mileage is 10-15 thousand kilometers. In this case, the error code signals a malfunction of the crankshaft sensor. In practice, no sensor replacement is required in this situation, and the failure is caused by errors in the standard software of the electronic control unit. They are eliminated by flashing the ECU using the appropriate software. However, this procedure can be carried out only in a service center.

Another reason for the appearance of the "alarm light" can be an extremely simple, but far from obvious factor for a motorist - a decrease in the tightness of the fuel system caused by ... a loosely twisted gas tank cap. For this reason, the cover must always be screwed on before the safety ratchet engages.

Check Engine is on: general conclusions for Daewoo Nexia

As we can see, there are quite a few reasons for the appearance of errors in the operation of the engine on this Daewoo model, but they are all inherent, to one degree or another, to all cars with an injection fuel injection system. At the same time, it is worth paying tribute to, cases of serious malfunctions associated with the engine are quite rare in Nexia. This is due to the reliability of the power unit, leading its "history" from the beginning of the 80s of the last century.

By the way, the owners note that it is the 8-valve motors that are especially reliable in operation, and the 16-valve versions are somewhat inferior to them in this parameter.

In particular, these motors suffer from a serious drawback - oil leakage from under the valve cover with a mileage of over 50 thousand kilometers.

Despite all of the above nuances, the appearance of the Check Engine warning lamp is a serious reason for checking the engine's performance. Ignoring the warning device can lead to serious malfunctions, and in some cases to overhaul of the motor.

For this reason, it makes sense for Nexia owners to recommend the installation of an on-board computer, which allows them to quickly obtain information about error codes and, accordingly, take timely measures to eliminate the malfunction. This path looks the most simple, since today there is a large selection of on-board computers for various Daewoo models.

Sergey Tokarev. St. Petersburg.

My review of the Ravon P3 automatic machine will try to tell in detail about all the advantages and disadvantages of this car. Prior to that, he drove on different brands, ranging from "Volga 31029" and ending with "Chevrolet Blazer".

On duty, you have to drive 80-100 km every day, in dense city traffic and on the highway. When my jeep finally collapsed, and the repair was already unprofitable, I went to Avito and began looking for a used foreign car up to 700 thousand rubles.

Under this cost and my requirements, but I wanted a full-fledged car with a fairly powerful engine, automatic transmission and a wide range of equipment, Kia, Chevrolet, Hyundai and “Chinese” fit. All had a mileage of over 80, there were also new budget options in the poorest configuration without sound insulation and manual windows.

This did not suit me. While watching, I saw an advertisement for Nexia Ravon and decided to see "what a beast". I was surprised that at a cost of 100 cheaper than its brothers, the car is perfectly assembled and has all the necessary options. I decided to visit a car dealership and see it live, nevertheless a new car is better than a used one, even a brand name.

First impressions

In the cabin there were 4 models of various configurations and colors. The choice settled on the Nexia in the "Elegant" configuration with a six-speed automatic with a "tiptronic" white. The car had a 4-cylinder engine with 107 horsepower and a volume of 1.5, which seemed to me an ideal balance of traction and economy.

All parts and elements of the body and interior were perfectly matched to each other, and even to the touch the good quality of the material was felt. As for the options, the car had everything you need. There was an ABS system, hydraulic power steering, electric mirrors, brake booster, manual air conditioning, in general, everything is like in a Japanese or European middle class car. I would like to tell you about the main thing - the features of operation.

Month of ownership

I was lucky and in the winter of 2017 I bought a car without a queue with registration on the same day. Before buying, there was some mistrust, but after the test drive all doubts were dispelled and I said: "make out". Quickly put on record in the traffic police, the benefit of PTS was issued immediately.

I put my car in a paid parking lot, and the next day I decided to go to work. It was -20 degrees and fine cold snow. The alarm was auto-start, but I decided not to turn it on.

The engine started with a half turn, without extraneous noise and vibrations, as is the case in some "Vaz". In 5 minutes I warmed up to operating temperature, and I turned on the heater, after a minute it became warm in the cabin. He got behind the wheel, put the selector in the “D” position, slightly pressed the gas pedal. The car moved off smoothly, on the way I noticed small knocks of the suspension.

After a few hundred meters, the knocking stopped, this is a normal phenomenon and happens in any car - in the cold, the oil in the shock absorbers became thick, then developed. The engine worked perfectly and smoothly, at speeds up to 3500 thousand in the cabin it was NOT HEARING, a pleasant hum is heard in the 5-6th gear, the feeling that a V-6 with a turbocharger is installed.

Automation clearly and smoothly changes gears, does not hesitate and does not slip on a slippery road. The characteristic clicks of the gearbox operation are not audible, unlike my Chevrolet 97 onwards jeep. On the track I tried to drown the gas pedal a little - the car smoothly, without jerking, went to accelerate. In this case, there should be some inhibition - after all, not a racing car, and 1.2 tons of weight.

I went to work for a month, never looked under the hood. I hit 2,800 kilometers, just ran in. On the advice of specialists, I changed the oil in the box and the engine, filled in high-quality fully synthetic. I changed all the filters and examined the candles. On this, the first MOT passed, I could have done it in the salon under warranty, but I love it with my own hands.

Half a year later

Overall happy with the car. During 6 months of daily trips, the car showed itself well. I would like to note the excellent handling, good acceleration and low gasoline consumption, which is about 10 liters in the city.

The suspension is smooth and soft, there are breakdowns when hitting large holes, just like other cars. Spacious warm interior, luggage compartment for 400 liters, comfortable rear row of seats - 3 passengers can calmly move around. Under full load, the car picks up acceleration without difficulty and feels great at a speed of 120 km / h.

There has never been a critical engine temperature, even during heavy loads, thanks to a well thought out and simple cooling system. The automatic machine unquestioningly performs switching always at the necessary moment, never got into emergency mode and did not give errors. The steering wheel with power steering rotates effortlessly - with one finger, which is convenient when turning in tight places. The ABS system is working properly, at a speed of about 60 km a cat ran into the road, the car stopped quickly but smoothly, without squealing. Once I recharged the standard battery, apparently it was not fully charged at the factory.

The engine starts up in any frost with a half turn, did not notice knocks and noises, even during running.

The cabin has a simple air conditioner, used several times in the heat, provides a stably distributed flow of cold air, nothing else is required from it. The driver's seat of a very comfortable design, one might say "anatomical", traveled to Petrozavodsk for 250 and back - did not feel much fatigue. Also, of the useful options, there is a radio with a bluetooth system for 4 speakers, which, however, had to be replaced due to vibration during sound.

There is a convenient design for fastening a child seat, well-thought-out seat belts, wear-resistant velor fabric upholstery in a combined color design. Heated mirrors with a convenient electric drive system that fold down while parked. Excellent optics providing a good view of the road and glass cleaning mechanism.
The body paintwork is of very good quality, the car was parked on the street every day, for several months I did not find a single “mushroom”.

Malfunctions and malfunctions

There were no serious breakdowns, the car passed about 30 thousand. I replaced the spark plugs, refueled the air conditioner, and refilled the coolant once. The windshield cracked through my fault - I turned on the stove at full power during warming up.

The stove branch pipe flowed in the engine area - tightening the clamp became the solution to the problem. Interior lighting disappeared, searches led to a lack of contact in the plafond, after the "opening" of the lamp contacts, the light appeared.

Factory brushes "wipers" did not like - replaced by Bosch. These are all malfunctions for half a year, I want to note that spare parts and consumables for this model cost the same as for the Zhiguli.

Conclusion

I have never regretted my purchase, although at first there was distrust. The car is perfectly controlled, the engine is high-spirited, the automatic transmission is full of useful options to facilitate the driver's task. Accelerates quickly, maneuvers on oversized territory, does not require frequent repairs and maintenance. Excellent value for urban use and long country trips. For your money - ideal. Although I am a patriot, I do not recommend buying Vesta or X-Ray, I think that they are somewhat worse in quality.

Lamps used in the car

Any modern car or truck can be serviced and repaired by yourself, in a regular garage. All that is required for this is a set of tools and a factory repair manual with a detailed (step-by-step) description of the operations. Such a manual should contain the types of operating fluids, oils and greases used, and most importantly, the tightening torques of all threaded connections of parts of vehicle units and assemblies. Italian cars - Fiat (Fiat) Alfa Romeo (Alfa Romeo) Lancia (Lancia) Ferrari (Ferrari) Mazerati (Maserati) have their own design features. Also in a special group you can select all French cars - Peugout (Peugeot), Renault (Renault) and Citroen (Citroen). German cars are complex. This is especially true for Mercedes Benz (Mercedes Benz), BMW (BMW), Audi (Audi) and Porsche (Porsche), slightly less - to Volkswagen and Opel (Opel). The next large group, isolated by design features, are American manufacturers Chrysler, Jeep, Plymouth, Dodge, Eagle, Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Ford, Mercury, Lincoln ... Of Korean firms, it should be noted Hyundai / Kia, GM - DAT (Daewoo), SsangYong.

More recently, Japanese cars were distinguished by a relatively low initial cost and affordable prices for spare parts, but recently they have caught up with prestigious European brands in terms of these indicators. And this applies to almost the same extent to all brands of cars from the land of the rising sun - Toyota (Toyota), Mitsubishi (Mitsubishi), Subaru (Subaru), Isuzu (Isuzu), Honda (Honda), Mazda (Mazda or, as they said before, Matsuda) , Suzuki (Suzuki), Daihatsu (Daihatsu), Nissan (Nissan). Well, and the cars produced under the Japanese-American brands Lexus (Lexus), Scion (Scion), Infinity (Infinity),
