The American popular magazine Ward's Auto revealed its 2014. The top ten was selected from 41 new car models. Considering how much time we have become in our cars, we think many of us will be interested to know which cars in 2014, the interiors are the most beautiful.

Let us recall that the publication annually awards various awards to cars for some achievements. The world's most famous publication competitions are "Top-10 best engines"and" Top 10 Best Automotive Interiors ".

How specialists and journalists of the edition choose the best car interiors?

In order to select the top ten, the best cars are selected from the cars admitted to the competition according to the following criteria: ergonomics, ease of perception, quality and style of decoration, materials used in the cabin, cost of a car, safety, comfort, design harmony, etc.

We invite you to familiarize yourself with this top ten cars with the best interiors. This year's rankings range from cheap affordable cars to the luxurious Rolls-Royce Wraith.

What does the interior mean for the driver and for the brand?

In every car model, the interior plays an important role in consumer perception of the car brand. Also, the interior creates the character and character of the car in the minds of buyers. The more beautiful and more comfortable interior, the more there are those who want to buy a car. Massage seats, expensive interior materials and various autonomous functions while driving distinguish the cars featured in this ranking in 2014 compared to.

Cars with the best interiors

2014 Kia \u200b\u200bSoul +

The second generation won the prestigious annual competition for comfort, space, ergonomics and, of course, for the inexpensive cost of the new car. The highest marks for quality were given to features such as an 8-inch navigation display, rear-view cameras, a roof with a panoramic view and a great audio system.

2014 Mazda3

The new generation is the only Japanese car to be ranked in the top ten. The jury of the competition came to the conclusion that new Mazda, despite the not expensive factory price, has a chic sports functional interior with elements of a premium car. It's worth noting that in the car market, an entry-level model rarely gets expensive finishes and a lot of expensive features. Mazda3 is an exception to the rule. The interior of this car is sleek and beautiful, thanks to luxurious digital gadgets such as the central LCD screen that controls the infotainment system and many modern innovative safety features.

2015 Volkswagen GTI

2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith

Rounding out our top ten best car interiors is the expensive luxury car Rolls-Royce Wraith (Phantom). This car is worth more than the top eight cars in the ranking combined. Compared to previous interiors, the salon has received a new direction in design, taking into account modern fashion trends and the preferences of wealthy citizens. A high youthful energy emanates from the new style of the salon, which will appeal to the younger generation of wealthy people.

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 adjustment range are the winner. front seat, 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 classification. 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)

The Mazda CX-5, Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V claim to be the 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. Say, in height (H) the championship is behind Mazda, and in terms of space at the feet of rear passengers (L 2) - for RAV4.

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

And here is the breakdown 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 Kia cerato, but on her heels soplatform Hyundai elantra. Nissan Sentra took third place. 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 parity because they tied for sixth place. For Gentra, this is a definite plus. Comparing with the popular Logan is not a bad result.

At the bottom of the table is the most compact in the class Ford Fiesta... 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 a place 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.

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, the 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 auto 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 the 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 a mid-price radio tape recorder. In addition, Burmester is equipped with a function to compensate for external noise when the vehicle is moving. The large touchscreen 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 instrument panel, a wide tunnel, instead of the expected plastic, is trimmed with expensive types of wood. A large multimedia "tablet" with a metal edging fits neatly 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 located new honda Civic, which, alas, has been temporarily taken off the market 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 entertainment and information "computer" of the car 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: a driver of any height can reach the gearshift knob, buttons of the multimedia system and the glove compartment.

Bmw 7-series

In second place is the interior of the new BMW 7-Series, which can hardly be called minimalist: a program for doing sports in the cabin, several types of massage for rear passengers, a built-in tablet on back row to control 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 an 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 difficult - the premium 16-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system is responsible for the 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 cover the entire display for the convenience of the driver, and if the navigator needs to be displayed on the screen, the instrument images are narrowed, making room for other data.

The set temperature indicator is now located directly on the climate control regulator. 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, 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.

Today, it has become much easier to choose a salon to buy a new car or a used car than before - instead of rumors and gossip, now there are reviews on the Internet, revealing videos from secret buyers of "gray" salons ( the most successful ones often end up on television), there are even special groups on Vkontakte, a la "How car dealers are cheated."

To an ignorant person it may seem that with the spread of the Internet, such a "muddy" business as selling cars will become as transparent, honest, white and fluffy as possible ...

Do not flatter yourself!

Only the tools have changed, but the working methods remain the same as before - reputation is easily bought and sold (rumored to maintain a positive image car company average size on top otzovik can cost as a simple foreign car), public opinion is formed by “correct” contextual and display advertising (when you are “caught up” on the Internet by an annoying ad of a salon, whose website you visited some time ago, up to a month).

Remember - it is still unsafe to take the "traders" at their word!

To write this article, the site administration carefully studied three dozen revocable auto sites (hello to all “colleagues”!) From the first lines of Yandex and Google according to the relevant queries, and selected the 5 most popular and rating firms, whose work users recall.

We will check each of these salons, and at the end of the article we will arrange them in order of decreasing trust - from the most reliable to the total "razvodilov"

Site quality - the overall usability will be assessed (comfortable viewing from phones and tablets, filters for selecting a car, a clear site structure, detailed configurations, the ability to book a car you like, etc.);

Calling back to the client - 99% of salon websites now have a (often annoying) pop-up window asking them to leave a phone number for a call back. Some resources promise to do this in as much as 30 seconds! Let's check it out;

Availability of dealership documents, etc. in the public domain - we will look for scanned certificates of official cooperation with car brands, official gratitude from municipal and private organizations, and the details of the selling company (LLC, OJSC, etc.);

Information in the media - for each of the “patients” we will look for publications in major news and automobile publications, and analyze them for “venality”;

Reviews on the web- and, finally, we will read the opinions of customers and buyers, study their naturalness, and, from all that has turned out, we will try to extract the grains of Truth.

For the performance of each item, the salon can be awarded a point. The maximum number of points is 5.

Let's start checking!

“PIK Auto” (UPD 10.2018 - the showroom is closed)

1. Site quality:

• the resource, unfortunately, is not optimized for mobile devices - it will be very inconvenient to watch from a smartphone, you will constantly have to “push” the site with your finger left and right;
• understandable and ramified structure (a separate page for promotions, a form for filling out an application for a state loan, a full list of salon services on a separate page);
• convenient auto catalog - you can choose your favorite configuration and color, there is a summary table of the characteristics of all configurations for clarity of choice, on a separate tab, photo gallery;
• reviews within the site - a separate category is a list of reviews with photographs from real customers, each of whom was photographed with the car he bought.

The last point, undoubtedly, inspires confidence among inexperienced site visitors, but there is a problem - (the so-called “survivors' mistake”) - information is posted on the site only about those people who agreed to all the conditions of the salon, bought a car and agreed to a photo. But how many of those who refused to buy, considered the conditions dishonest, were fraudulently involved in a loan or installment plan? Only site managers know this ...

2. Speed \u200b\u200bof calling back to the client: they left a request and a phone number. Two and a half hours passed. We are still waiting for the call ...
3. Availability of dealership documents, etc. in the public domain: on the left side of the screen on all pages there is a picture “ Best Dealer - 2015" with reference to new program loyalty. But documents with seals and signatures are nowhere to be found.
4. Information in the media: A search for publications about “Pik” on other sites gave conflicting results. Publications:

The orientation of the sites and the unprofessional style suggest that the articles were bought only for the sake of reference (for promotion in search) and were written by professional unsuitable authors \u003d\u003e they do not carry valuable information for potential clients.

Main complaints expressed:

• They call one price on the phone, on arrival it turns out to be another;
• When asked about the availability of any configuration and color of the car, they answer positively (even when the desired car is not available and does not exist);
• For several hours they make customers wait under the pretext that “the car needs to be driven from the warehouse”. As a result, when the buyer is tired and annoyed, the managers offer to buy another car that has nothing to do with the desired one;
• Require a deposit before driving the car. If you don't like the fitted transport, the money will not be returned. Many try to sue with the participation of the police and the prosecutor's office, but to no avail. they sign papers without looking, and all potential conflict situations are spelled out in the papers.

Ratings:
Site quality - 1
Callback - 0
Dealership documents - 0
Information in the media - 0
Reviews on the web - 0

Result: 1 point, and that is only for a well-made standard site.

“ “

1 . Site quality:

• "Adaptive layout" - the site adjusts the screen resolution for any device from which it is visited. This is a definite plus, especially now that every progressive client uses a smartphone;
• car selection filter on the main page is an original solution. You don't have to go far: here you can also choose a new / used car, brand, price, year of manufacture, mileage, presence in the salon. Great idea from the creators!
• a detailed section "technical center" - this includes the maintenance regulations, a description of work, special services;
  registration - you can register and track the entire process of processing documents for a purchase or a loan through your personal account;
• Online Consultant - a pop-up chat window in which a salon employee talks to you. It is very good that the consultant is made unobtrusive, many developers underestimate the negative effect of an impudent feedback form.

The slider at the top of the site also looks good and does not distract us (users) from the main thing - the catalog of cars and the conditions for their purchase.

2. Speed \u200b\u200bof calling back to the client: the call was received within two hours. This is not the most best result, but the feedback form did not indicate that the call center would call back within 30 sec / 1/3/5 min. Compared to Peak, the result is decent.
3. Availability of documents about dealership, etc. in the public domain: in the category “About the Company” there is an item “Awards” - 6 scanned documents. Some are suspicious, butsigned award lists from Skoda-Auto.Russa make it clear that Favorit Motors cooperates with high-level partners.
4. Information in the media: on the site itself there is a subsection “Mass media about us”, which contains links to an interview with the general director of the salon for RBC (a well-known business media), links to drive.ru, zr.ru and expert.ru. A solid set, doubts about the company's reputation no longer arise;
5. Reviews on the Web: Internet activists complain about standard things:

• lack of “decent discounts” (“I asked, but they don’t give !!!”);
• “Deceitful managers”;
• a sharp rise in the cost of the car after you leave the salon (you were previously told the price is lower, sometimes significantly than the one that you will hear upon arrival);
• low service speed.
  

  If we take into account the fact that the representation of the company on the Internet inspires trust in almost all aspects, then we can assume that negative reviews for “Favorite” are the intrigues of competitors.

Ratings:
Site quality - 1
Callback - 1
Dealership documents, etc. - 1
Information in the media - 1
Reviews on the web - 0

Result: 4 points. It could have been 5, but we cannot vouch for the honesty / falsity of negative reviews, so we will leave everything as it is.

“ “

Site quality:

• 3 (!!!) pop-up forms are immediately striking - an automatically opening online chat, a promotional code and a feedback form. This is alarming, and it may even scare someone away!
• The “header” sticking to the top of the screen does not add any convenience either - if I want to see the menu again, I will return to the top by scrolling the screen. Don't "chase" me;
• at the bottom of the main page, the auto catalog is conveniently located, sorted by brands - this is a plus;
• also in the basement there is a list of cities - when clicking on any of them, the user is taken to a site of the type “city.riaavto.ru”. Moreover, all sub-sites for cities are a complete copy of the original.

Attention: if on the website of any car dealership you see a list of links to cities, and by clicking on city subsections, you should know - with a 90% probability, none of the indicated cities has a branch of this car dealership !!!

A characteristic sign of deception is the absence of a local phone number and address on city sub-sites. If in the header there is only a phone number of the “8-800” format, you are guaranteed to be deceived!

This is done to facilitate the promotion of the salon website in search engines... If you call, for example, from Astrakhan, you will be called to Moscow ( where such salons most often have the main and only office), ensure that the vehicle you are interested in is in stock ( ANY color and configuration, in ANY body), but in the end they will deceive you and try to sell the "stale" illiquid asset.

Be carefull!

The site is made, on the whole, at an above average level, but it does not inspire confidence due to the abundance of spelling errors (“you like it”, “Huyndai”, etc.) and too intrusive nudge to call the manager.

2. The speed of calling back to the client: we waited for the call back within 24 hours ( about 18 hours passed). I did not like the too intrusive requirement of personal data ( Full name, phone number), for further ringing;
3. Availability of documents on dealership, etc. in the public domain: there is nothing like this on the site completely;
4. Information in the media: the situation is similar to “Auto Pik”. Sites from which there are links to "RIA Auto", and their subject matter, cause confusion and suspicion:

http://foto-master.org/ryukzaki/ryukzak-tamrac-adventure-6.html

Apparently, links to this site are just as ineptly purchased as to "PIK";
5. Reviews on the Web: and again a match with pik-auto in claims to work:

• deception about the presence of a car;
• an attempt to "sell" not the transport that interests you;
• aggressive methods of influencing the decision to purchase (as an example, the words of one of the salon managers are cited: “if you don’t take a loan now, I will put a note in your bank documents, and you will not be given a loan anywhere else”);
• excessive price increase due to the installation of additional equipment (without which almost no car is sold on credit);
• the loan rate differs during the preliminary conversation, and at the time of signing the documents.

Result: 0 points. One of the many "gray" salons in the capital, leading a dishonest game and profiting from gullible people.

1. Site quality:

5. Reviews on the Web: a picture similar to PIK-Auto, the same claims for deception with the presence of a car and a loan rate; blackmail when trying to refuse the imposed conditions.
Result: 0 points. The salon has not demonstrated solvency on any point.

Reputable Moscow car dealerships

As you can see, “Favorite” and “Genser” can be considered worthy organizations from those that we have considered. it is better not to deal with “PIK” and “Centralny”.

Instead of a conclusion: how to understand that you are dealing with a reliable car dealership

• If you agree on a car, it is either prepared for your arrival, or it is already available in the pavilion. Be suspicious of any “coming out of stock” suggestions;
• Managers are not in a hurry and do not force you to sign papers of questionable content;
• No deposit is required for driving and demonstrating cars ( not a penny, it's important!);
• As leverage for buying, do not threaten to ruin your credit history;
• On the territory of the salon you are met by the same people with whom you previously spoke on the phone.
• If this does not happen, be vigilant ( although the option that “your” manager is banally busy is also possible).

Salons, reviews of which may also be of interest to you:

When choosing a comfortable car for long-distance trips, many owners first of all pay attention to the equipment and the "sophistication" of the cabin, and only then to the suspension and engine. Crossovers and SUVs are very popular in Russia due to their higher and more comfortable fit, as well as an order of magnitude more spacious interior than conventional sedans. Chinese cars are especially attractive - their quality and comfort reach a new level, creating real competition for more prestigious brands.

The review presents the most comfortable cars that can be bought in Russia. The rating is based on the characteristics of the top trim levels and the opinions of the owners who have already made their choice. For the convenience of the reader, all selected cars are presented in three popular categories.

The most comfortable crossovers

This type of car assumes a large and spacious interior, high seating position and large wheel diameter. All this is part of a more comfortable travel environment. The most comfortable crossover models will be presented in this rating group.

5 KIA Sorento Prime

Spacious salon. Anatomical chairs with heating and ventilation
Country: South Korea
Average price: 2,211,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.6

As a result of implemented this year technical updates models, Kia Sorento the third generation received, among other things, a modernized and more spacious interior. Inner space The vehicle is highlighted by energetic interior trims made from quality materials. Anatomical seats with built-in heating and ventilation are literally made for long journeys. Even rear passengers can adjust their seat backrest angle.

A premium multimedia system with a subwoofer, a wireless console for charging your phone - everything is designed exclusively for comfortable movement in space. Elements of active and passive protection, highly appreciated by Euro NCAP specialists, make driving a car as convenient and safe as possible.

4 Lexus LX Arctic Trucks III

The best insulation. High cross-country ability
Country: Japan
Average price: 5,350,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.7

The luxury car is equipped with a comfortable air suspension and contains other state-of-the-art solutions available at the time the car was released from the conveyor. It is ideal for long-distance trips, and a high level of comfort is provided not only to passengers, but also to the driver - without much fatigue to overcome a thousand kilometers per day on this car will not present any special problems.

All components of an elite SUV are reliable. The cross-country ability, enviable for many other jeeps, allows you not to choose roads, and on any of them, even the most "killed", the cabin will remain quiet and comfortable - the suspension of the Lexus LX Arctic Trucks has several modes, and it is almost impossible to "break" it. The price of this real road cruiser for many becomes an insurmountable limitation - elite crossover not everyone can afford it. For this reason alone, he does not lead our top ranking.

3 VOLVO XC90

Reliable and safe crossover
Country: Sweden
Average price: 4,757,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.8

Despite the positioning of the VOLVO XC90 as a seed crossover, its cross-country ability would give odds to many SUVs, if it were not for the automatic transmission - there is nothing to do with it in impassable mud. High ground clearance (there is an adjustment, as well as an automatic load compensation mode), a brutal appearance and an adaptive suspension immediately make it clear that everything is in order and with comfort in this car.

The most sophisticated top-level equipment offers three rows comfortable seats... For each passenger, including those sitting in the "gallery", there is a necessary minimum of comfort - its own climate control and a multimedia system (in the headrests of the front seats). This is the most suitable car for long journeys with children or teenagers, which also has the same reliable body and a full range of highly effective active and passive safety systems.

2 Porsche Macan

The most comfortable salon
Country: Germany
Average price: 5,314,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.9

The first thing that catches your eye when you open the doors of this car are the seats. They provide the most comfortable fit for passengers and the driver, adjusting to their preferences in 8 positions by simply pressing certain buttons. Adjusting the lumbar support for long journeys is an indispensable feature for maximum body comfort. In the basic version, all seats are heated, and as an option, a heated steering wheel is available. Also, the standard version of the crossover is equipped with a three-zone climate system, which allows you to create an individual microclimate for both front and rear passengers.

By choosing a car with air suspension, the new owner will receive an SUV that completely isolates the driver and his companions from the surrounding reality. The car will simply "float" over the road, all the irregularities of which will not be able to disturb you in any way. Interior soundproofing using modern materials will allow you to talk without raising your voice, even at high speed. As an option, you can install multi-layer tinted thermal glass, which will increase the already high level of comfort. There is also a more conservative but effective alternative - mechanical shutters.

1 Audi Q5

Comfortable suspension. Popular model in the domestic market
Country: Germany
Average price: 3,605,000 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.9

Germans are very attentive to details, so their cars are the most comfortable and occupy a special niche in the market. Crossover Audi Q5, which was in the first position of our top-ranking, will amaze you with the smallest thoughtfulness of details and high-quality interior trim. Ergonomic seats and a customizable control system maximize ride comfort. In addition, Audi is considered the most "advanced" car and boasts many high-tech systems on board that make the trip not only comfortable, but also safe.

One of these systems is Audi Drive Select, which adapts the operation of vehicle components in accordance with the owner's priorities. A simple choice of mode - and the car becomes an SUV with high ground clearance or turns into a sports car with low ground clearance and a stiff suspension. In the Comfort position, the standard engine and transmission dynamics are activated and the air suspension is softened, which immediately affects the ride comfort. This option is especially relevant for long trips.

The most comfortable sedans

As a rule, these are premium cars, which are distinguished not only by the maximum comfort, but also by a high level of safety, as well as by the presence of integrated modern and high-tech systems that make everyday use pleasant and not burdensome. The models presented below are the best and most comfortable cars that are sold in Russia today.

5 Cadillac CT6

The best insulation. High quality interior trim
Country: USA
Average price: 5,090,000 rubles.
