Cars are usually judged by their external design, but sometimes the inside of a car novelty is much more interesting than the outside. The massage function of the chairs, the Internet, high-quality audio sound, purified ionized air, an instructor program on how to pump the press - you want to spend more and more time in a modern car. The American consulting agency Wardsauto has selected the best car interiors for 2016 models.

Volvo XC90

The list opens with a technological and Scandinavian strict interior of the Volvo XC90. The interior is really austere: the number of buttons is minimized, and the instrument panel may seem "bare", but all the smart stuffing is enclosed in a central touchscreen display tablet. Here, an imitation of the American electric crossover Tesla Model X is directly read, where all the functionality is hidden in a huge tablet. The Swedes, following the German car companies, said goodbye to analog devices - the "dial" of the tachometer and speedometer are made in digital format. We can say that a minimalist approach to interior design has become a trend for premium cars.

Japanese cars are also included in the rating, which is surprising, since in the land of the Rising Sun, salon luxury is not as valued as in Europe and the USA. The "cockpit" of the new generation Nissan Maxima in comparison with the previous one is like the latest iPhone in comparison with the "soap box" Nokia 3310, which was convenient to open a beer bottle. The color scheme is harmoniously selected: doors are finished in sand-colored leather, a black dashboard and bright aluminum inserts. And the steering wheel "flattened" at the bottom brings sports motives into the interior atmosphere. The model got into the rating due to radical stylistic differences from its predecessor.

Mercedes-Benz GLC

The rounded shape of the dashboard, the smooth bend between the tunnel and the dashboard - all details inside the Mercedes-Benz GLC should not create discomfort. One of the main features of the crossover is the high-quality Burmester audio system, which reproduces surround sound even from flash cards, disks and phones, which is not available even for mid-price radio tape recorders. In addition, Burmester is equipped with a function to compensate for external noise when the vehicle is moving. The large touch screen of the multimedia system in the GLC makes it easy to get operational information on the Internet, and the driver can search without being distracted from the road using voice commands.

Lexus rx

Lexus, unlike many Japanese compatriots, has long known a lot about a high-quality interior and, in fact, with the help of this, has managed to gain prestige in the market. Attentive fans of the brand will notice that notes of German premium have appeared inside the new-generation RX crossover. Hitherto unknown to the Japanese, restraint is visible in everything: the straight lines of the dashboard, a wide tunnel, instead of the expected plastic, is trimmed with expensive species of wood. A large, metal-edged "tablet" of multimedia laconically fits into the center console with an analog clock. For all the luxury, the designers did not forget about the utilitarian component: the rear seats fold into a flat floor, forming an impressive cargo compartment.

Honda civic

In the middle of the rating is the new Honda Civic, which, alas, has been temporarily removed from sale in Russia. This sedan is especially interesting because the interior of the car boasts rich equipment at a relatively low cost ($ 27 thousand) of the car. The car's infotainment "computer" is already equipped with a messenger, speakerphone, 10 speakers and a subwoofer. And the leather upholstery of the Civic seats can be the envy of another business sedan.

Chrysler pacifica

The owner of the American minivan Chrysler Pacifica will definitely not get bored on the way. The main advantage of the car is the transforming interior: the second and third row of seats fold into a flat floor, and the resulting space is quite enough for three adults for a comfortable sleep; you can also transport bulky items up to a bookcase or refrigerator. Another configuration maximizes the distance between the front and second row of seats, creating a limousine effect for passengers. If you include your favorite movie, then Pacifica generally turns into a small cinema. The interior design does not lag behind luxury German cars - expensive leather, four-zone climate control, large multimedia screens for front and rear passengers.

Chevrolet camaro

The experts rated the interior of another "American" - the Chevrolet Camaro muscle car even higher. Its interior has become less brutal, soft plastic and new comfort systems have appeared. The steering wheel is heated and the seats can even be cooled. The center armrest tapers towards the gear knob and resembles a guitar case. The visual perception of the interior is enhanced by leather inserts in the sidewalls of the doors and high-quality stitching of the seats. In general, the interior looks very harmonious and has almost nothing in common with the previous generation, where the interior was given a minimum of attention.

The third place in the ranking went to the American crossover Cadillac XT5, in the cabin of which expensive materials are used: mahogany, velvet and satin. When changing lanes and parking, the driver will be assisted by cameras in the rear-view mirrors, which display the image on the display in the instrument panel. The panoramic roof has an auto-dimming mode, which will be useful on a sunny day, and at night the glass can change color configuration so that in clear weather the stars from the interior appear red or green. Good ergonomics of all vehicle control units is noted: the driver of any height can reach the gearshift knob, multimedia system buttons and the glove compartment.

Bmw 7-series

In second place is the interior of the new BMW 7-Series, which can hardly be called minimalistic: a program for doing sports in the cabin, several types of massage for rear passengers, a built-in tablet in the back row for controlling all comfort systems - these are just a few of the advantages of the new sedan. The interior of the BMW 7-Series is designed for sports activities: the front passenger seat automatically slides to make room for exercise. Then the instructor program turns on and tells how to properly swing the press or arms in the "seven".

A 7-Series passenger can choose a massage mode depending on the purpose of the trip and physical condition: for a business meeting, the "mobilization" function (intensive massage) is suitable, for the evening of graduates it is better to go in the "relaxation" mode (unobtrusive movement of servo rollers), and in the morning it is optimal the option would be "recovery" (medium speed). A touchscreen tablet is built into the armrest of the second row of seats, which controls climate control, massage, interior lighting and a telephone. Music in the car is also challenging - the premium 16-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system is responsible for high-quality sound.

Audi TTS

The leader of the rating was the interior of the Audi TTS sports coupe. The first place was awarded for a non-standard approach to the location of comfort and entertainment systems. The car does not have a central display at all - now it is located in the place of the speedometer and is not inferior in functionality to screens with a traditional arrangement. Any information can be displayed on it - from tire pressure to pages of Internet browsers and DVD movies. While driving, the electronic speedometer and tachometer expand to fill the entire display for the convenience of the driver, and if you need to display the navigator, the instrument images narrow, making room for other data.

The set temperature indicator is now located directly on the climate control knob. In addition to compact multimedia, there is a high level of comfort of the sports bucket seats - even on a long trip, the driver will not get tired, and with active driving, the lateral support will firmly fix the body. The car turned out to be centered around the driver, as it was in the old Saab and BMW models: neither information nor entertainment component is provided for TTS passengers.

So, let's take the tests that our magazine conducted in 2016. Who and in what classrooms became the most spacious? The only thing left is to build a rating. But how? After all, if a car beats rivals in terms of headroom, this does not mean at all that it will be the best in the shoulders. I had to invent a new comparison method - we calculate the arithmetic mean value for each car for all measured parameters (if a range is specified, we take into account the maximum value). Of course, in this case, the models with the largest range for adjusting the front seat turn out to be a winner, but this indicator is far from the last, like other parameters, it directly affects the comfort of the driver and passengers. The rating was based on the average value. The result is in the table below.

Available crossovers (the cost of the basic version is up to 1,000,000 rubles)

This year we have carried out four large tests, in which all the most anticipated market innovations took part. These are Hyundai Creta, Renault Kaptur and Lada XRAY. You will be surprised, but all of them in terms of space in the cabin lost to the more compact Kia Soul! Moreover, comparing the Soul with other SUVs that have been in our tests before, you can see that the Kia is one of the most spacious crossovers in the overall standings. But it is surprising that it was bypassed by the Chinese Haval H2 and Zotye T600 - they noticeably surpass the "Korean" in size.

But among the most budgetary front-wheel drive pseudo-crossovers, Renault Sandero Stepway can be noted. Look, in most parameters it is slightly inferior to the soplatform Lada Ixrei, but it significantly surpasses it in terms of spaciousness in the shoulders. It is also noteworthy that at the end of the rating were cars that are more focused on the comfort of front riders. They are spacious enough in the front of the passenger compartment, but they are much more constraining the rear row passengers. In other words, the leaders are the most balanced cars in terms of internal space.

Compact and mid-size crossovers (base version price from 1,000,000 rubles)

Mazda CX-5, Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V claim the title of midsize crossover with the most spacious interior. Their figures are very close, but still Honda was a little more roomy. Mazda CX-5 and Toyota RAV4 go almost head to head. For example, in height (H) the championship is behind Mazda, and in terms of space in the legs of the rear passengers (L 2) - for the RAV4.

The victory in this class went to those crossovers with a spacious rear row. That is why the Hyundai Tucson is among the laggards - it is closer in the gallery than its competitors.

And here is the balance of space in the cabin among all tested sedans from the B- and C-class:

Budget sedans (base versions price up to 800,000 rubles)

Here the victory went to Kia Cerato, but the platform-based Hyundai Elantra steps on its heels. Nissan Sentra came in third. Bronze went to him thanks to the spacious back row. He is the largest in the class.

It is also interesting that Ravon Gentra and Renault Logan have parity, because they share the sixth place. For Gentra, this is a definite plus. Comparing with the popular Logan is not a bad result.

The most compact Ford Fiesta in the class closes the table. It turned out to be the most modest in terms of such indicators as H 1 (distance from the seat cushion to the ceiling for the front passenger) and B 2 (the width of the cabin in the area of \u200b\u200bthe rear seats). That is, they are simply cramped compared to competitors.

Middle and executive sedans

The Kia Optima has become one of the best in its test in terms of interior space. She has the highest ceiling, and the driver and passengers have where to attach their legs.

In the premium sedan test, we have collected bitter rivals - the new Audi A4, BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. In another comparison, Jaguar XF, the representative of the Japanese premium - Infiniti Q70 and the "American" Cadillac CTS, converged.

In the test of the flagship sedans, representatives of the “big German three” again took part. In this class of cars, most buyers choose these brands.

Surely most car enthusiasts have noticed the trend of increasing the cost of new and used cars over the past few years. What until recently could be easily found for 600-700 thousand, now costs about.

Given the rising prices for new models, consumers are increasingly looking towards used cars. They have certain advantages, but cost is always a key factor. At a lower price, the car can be filled with the same equipment as a new car. But even an insignificant mileage instantly lowers the market value of the car.

No wonder they say that after leaving the car dealership, the car immediately becomes used, and its price drops by 15-20%. Therefore, it often makes sense to take a closer look at the bu options. And many people prefer to contact car dealerships.

It will be interesting for residents and guests of the capital to familiarize themselves with the list of used car dealerships in Moscow and with a fairly high rating. The top is compiled on the basis of feedback from consumers themselves and the opinions of customers. It cannot be called the most subjective, since everyone has their own opinion, and there will always be dissatisfied customers. The only question is how many people are satisfied with the work of this or that company, and how many regret their choice.

Car dealerships vs private ads

Before you name the best car dealerships in Moscow, where they sell used cars, you should finally decide which way of buying is preferable. In fact, the buyer has 2 options. These are car dealerships and private ads.

Private traders actively publish advertisements on the Internet, on popular resources, put cars on special sites, where you can see a large number of cars live at once. But among them there are very often resellers. These are people who earn on the trust of buyers. They buy cars, including problematic ones, try to fix faults as cheaply as possible or simply disguise them, and then sell them at an inflated price in order to be in the black. It is not recommended for anyone to deal with resellers. More dear to yourself.

If we talk specifically about the best car dealerships in the Russian capital, that is, Moscow, which specialize in, then they have a number of objective advantages. Namely:

• All cars undergo comprehensive diagnostics. It is not profitable for a company to sell a car with serious problems and malfunctions, since they should be eliminated at their own expense before putting the car up for sale.
• These are often official representatives. Almost everyone knows the difference between a white and a gray dealer. Working with an official representative, you have the opportunity to contact them in the future, write a complaint, receive compensation, or simply service the purchased car with guarantees.
• Special programs, discounts, loans. Agreeing with a private seller to pay the amount in installments is possible only in theory. Car dealerships are interested in selling even used cars, and therefore try to offer the client the most favorable conditions.
• Warranty. Turning to Moscow car dealerships with a really good reputation, buying a used car from them, you can safely count on a 1-year warranty. This is a significant advantage for this type of transaction.
• Transparent history, detailed information about the car. Before putting up a car for sale, the car dealership conducts a comprehensive history check, verifies the information, whether the car is listed in theft, what is its real mileage, etc.

There are really many advantages. But there are car dealerships that deceive buyers, twist the mileage themselves, ineptly disguise malfunctions, and pass off the problem car as completely transparent. They definitely cannot be included in the list, which contains the best Moscow car dealerships with a really good reputation. It is categorically not recommended to take either new or used cars from them.

Leaders among Moscow car dealerships

The current rating of car dealerships was compiled taking into account the opinions of consumers and customer reviews left in the framework of sociological surveys. They all bought in Moscow, and got a certain experience, personal impressions of cooperation. Companies and organizations that received the most positive reviews ended up in this rating.

You should not take this rating solely as a basis when choosing a salon for buying a used car. Explore additional information, carefully read the terms of the companies, visit their offices, talk to the staff and form your own opinion about it.

Opens this top among the best car dealerships, specializing, including, and used cars, the official representative of Nissan in Moscow. The center is located in Vnukovo. One of the metropolitan leaders in the quality and sales of used vehicles.

The salon covers an area of \u200b\u200bover 600 square meters. There is a warehouse, its own car service. There is a dedicated area for customers with exemplary service.

The organization offers a wide range of services, sells new cars and used cars. Engaged in warranty and post-warranty service. Here you can buy original spare parts, accessories for your car.

Avilon is one of the largest players on the Russian market. In total, the holding specializes in the sale of 28 car brands. Among the offers are new and used vehicles. Their showrooms sell luxury cars including Bentley and Ferrari.

Volkswagen Avilon has won numerous awards, including consumer recognition. Information about all cars that are sold in the showroom can be found on the official website. The data is in the public domain. Moreover, Avilon was the first in Russia who began to practice it.

Buyers note the high level of service, an impressive range of used cars, the availability of spare parts, various accessories for Volkswagen models. Perhaps it is the largest car showroom based in Moscow and specializing in Volkswagen cars. When choosing used cars, you can count on an impressive range of services, including sale, leasing, loan processing, assistance with registration, purchase, etc. Since this is an official representative of Volkswagen, the German company obliges the Moscow Auto Show to conduct a comprehensive check of all used cars put up for sale under special programs and standards regulated by the manufacturer.

Another official dealer, but this time from the South Korean company Kia. The organization specializes in the sale and service of passenger cars of this brand.

In addition to a wide range of new cars, there are many used vehicles to be found here SIM is deservedly included in the rating, which contains the best operating car dealerships in Moscow. Largely due to the careful control of used cars, as well as the attitude towards customers. Consumers note the politeness of the staff, their courtesy and high speed of work.

Since this is an official dealer, the list of services here is impressive. There is no doubt about the legal purity of a used car. All vehicles undergo detailed checks on all bases. In parallel, complex diagnostics of the technical condition is carried out.

Almost all car dealerships in Moscow under this brand are positioned by consumers as good, reliable and responsible. It offers the sale of an impressive number of used cars. In total, the dealer sells over 40 brands of passenger cars and commercial vehicles.

This is a whole holding that includes a wide list of salons located in different parts of the country. There are 15 of them in Moscow alone. The clients themselves claim that it is best to contact the Major Expert points of sale located in Volokolamka and New Riga.

In addition to buying a used car, through this car dealership you can sell your own used car, exchange it with a surcharge, sell it at a commission, get a loan for the purchased used car. If you start purely from the assortment, it is here that the choice of cars is the largest. There is even a useful and necessary service for many, providing for the possibility of ordering a specific car.

There is a special showroom where new models currently available are demonstrated, and used cars are displayed in a separate open-type area. Plus, there is a separate pavilion for used cars.

You can buy a used car under special programs, including loans and leasing. Rolf gives a guarantee for used cars. It is 12 months, or 20 thousand kilometers. This allows you to protect your own money in relation to the occurrence of faults on the main components and assemblies.

It is the official dealer of the Bavarian brand in Moscow. Last year he was recognized as the best in his field. The dealership is the representative of one of the world's largest car dealers. We are talking about the Inchcape holding.

The car dealership specializes in the sale of new and used BMW cars, their maintenance, lending, insurance, technical inspection, maintenance and repair. The list of services is quite impressive, and many of them are relevant for buyers of used cars.

Before the sale, all used cars undergo a preliminary comprehensive diagnostics, a check for legal purity, and pre-sale preparation. None of the customers who left their reviews complained about buying a bat or a problem car. This largely confirms the words of the representatives of BorisHof themselves that they never offer illiquid cars and cars with a dubious history to their customers.

Again the official dealer and again the BMW company. The company specializes in used and new models of the German brand. An impressive assortment of used cars is always available.

Like all Rolf dealerships, this car showroom offers a wide range of services, including loan processing, auto insurance assistance, expedited registration with the traffic police, maintenance and much more.

According to the clients of the dealership, it is profitable and almost safe to buy used cars here.

A major Moscow auto show, ready to offer an impressive list of used cars from various manufacturers. An excellent opportunity is offered to take a used car on credit terms.

The company provides a guarantee for used vehicles. Beforehand, they undergo comprehensive diagnostics and mandatory legal verification. Pre-sale preparation is carried out at a decent level, and not just by washing.

But you shouldn't rely entirely on the rating. Even reputable car dealerships can make mistakes and oversights. But it is one thing when it is done systematically and deliberately, and quite another, if some moments are accidentally missed. Not all cars can be checked for legal purity, fully revealing their entire history. And checking the technical condition does not give a 100% result in all situations. These are the main disadvantages of used cars bought through car dealerships or private sellers.

Do not blindly trust car dealerships, even if they position themselves as official dealers and representatives of major car manufacturers. You should always double check every vehicle. This is the direct responsibility of the buyer. Only he can do everything in his power so that buying a used car fully justifies itself, and after a couple of months of operation, any problems with the car do not surface. And if you choose a car dealership, then preference should be given to official dealers. The chance of encountering defective vehicles or vehicles with a criminal hidden history is much less.

They are greeted, of course, by their clothes, but, as a rule, they are seen off according to their mind. In the case of cars, the "mind" can be the interior of the car, because it is with it that the driver and passengers have to "contact" most of the time.

auto.tochka.net have thoroughly researched car interiors from a wide variety of car segments. After a detailed selection, we have compiled a list of truly bright and beautiful car interiors.

Let's start with the most affordable ones. Of course, here you will not see the salons of the most popular cars in Ukraine, because manufacturers spend a lot of money on creating a truly original interior, and this is directly reflected in the final cost of the product. In addition, an attractive interior should have a more or less expensive finish.

Mini cooper

Our Mini Cooper rating opens. Probably, only a person who is very far from cars has not heard about the interior features of this British kid. Only here just a huge speedometer is located not on the dashboard, but on the center console. In addition, most of the switches are made in the form of aviation toggle switches, and the climate control unit is made in the form of a brand emblem. How functional it is is a separate question, but it looks very cool.

Skoda Superb

Photo: skoda-auto.com Almost luxury for little money

The next member of our five is not a premium class. But to say that the latest generation of Skoda Superb, both externally and internally, does not look solid or cheap, it just does not turn the language. The Superb interior is the perfect combination of comfort, attractive design and the best practices of the Volkswagen concern in one car for relatively little money.

Photo: audi.com The true flagship of the brand

Next comes another "subsidiary" representative of the "people's automaker". The third line of the rating went to the executive sedan Audi A8. The salon of the luxury limousine is a true example of the brand's flagship. A huge retractable multimedia system monitor on the center console, expensive finishing materials, a lot of space for rear passengers and many systems that allow the driver and, most importantly, the rear right passenger to feel like on a throne.

Bentley mulsanne

Photo: bentleymotors.com Bentley Mulsanne - Silver only

Then there are truly luxurious salons. We gave the "silver" to the Bentley Mulsanne limousine. This newest representative of the manufacturer from Crewe strikes the imagination with its thoughtfulness, sophistication and high cost of execution. Numerous chrome dials with unusual digitization are successfully combined with an almost sporty four-spoke steering wheel, lacquered surfaces and leather trim.

The car interior is a second home for the driver not only of cars, but also. Their natural desire is comfort and coziness on the way. Which car will do the job better? Let's divide the article into two categories - passenger cars and truck tractors with trucks.

Cars

The offer here is off scale and it was difficult to make a choice. However, the search circle was reduced due to older cars (older than the 2000s) and the domestic auto industry. In defense of the Motherland, we note significant progress in the interior, but it is still far from the top level.

This car has everything in order not only with the engine, but also in the cabin. The driver and passengers have a large number of niches for items. The upholstery made of soft materials is easy to clean and does not lose its shine after years. The rear seat can be adjusted forward or backward. If it is necessary to increase the cargo space, it can be dismantled. The center console is not only massive but also functional. Everything you need is literally at hand by the driver on screens with excellent color reproduction.

WARNING: This vehicle is not yet available in the Russian Federation and the CIS. You can pre-order it from authorized dealers. We will inform you additionally about the availability, trim levels and prices.

American and European buyers have appreciated the interior of this car. The Koreans have fulfilled all their promises and remained faithful to the traditions of the corporate car building. Everything inside is thought out to the smallest detail - ergonomic handles and controls, passenger space and a multimedia system with support for popular services. An excellent solution for families and summer residents.

The second generation of the crossover pleases with technological improvements. The interior of the car gets maximum natural light thanks to the panoramic plexiglass roof. At the highest level, a multimedia system with individual settings. And the chairs can also perform a massage function.

Another stylish car. Snow-white seat upholstery, soft carpets and floor coverings - it's all about Stinger. Interior furnishing will create pleasantness for girls and guys of all stripes. And all these amenities are additionally emphasized by a powerful engine and a capacious fuel tank. But that's a completely different story ...

Quite an exotic guest on our roads. The interior of this 5-door SUV is truly luxurious. The soft seats are easy to clean and also remember the driver's posture for greater comfort. The modified rear row of seats has already become familiar. And in general, for 100 thousand dollars, a motorist gets a luxury car with exquisite materials, from which suede stands out. According to team member Gulnara, she is clearly superfluous here.

It combines not only comfort with ergonomics, but also safety. In addition to the options already listed, many cars are present in the cabin. And the standard entertainment system works with the interfaces of the top mobile operating systems.

The most expensive of all models. The car does not have a single version of the interior. And this is a unique feature of the entire line of luxury cars. Each owner can make the salon that will give him confidence and comfort. He has a wide selection of interior trim options, accessories, cabinets and everything incomprehensible. The result is a completely unique car for a person with status.

Trucks

Alas, we did not find complete information and analytics on this matter. Most reputable sources evaluate truck tractors by their technical characteristics, and little attention is paid to the interior. Therefore, the author will write about only one truck, which he is familiar with from direct reports of an American trucker.

This is a 2016 Volvo Cascadia. It is built on the basis of a long-range army tractor, having undergone some changes for civilian needs. Its interior includes standard truck devices and switches, as well as elements of the home interior. The chauffeur has an orthopedic sleeping place separated by a curtain, a locker for storing changeable clothes and household items. Above the cabinets there is a microwave on one side and a small TV on the other. Side for drinks and food. He alone wins in the cargo category.
