UAZ Patriot is an off-road vehicle of frame construction, the production of which was launched in 2005 in the city of Ulyanovsk at the car plant of the same name. To design this model, a sample was taken of the popular at that time off-road vehicle UAZ "Simbir", which had the factory name UAZ-3163.
Since the fall of 2014, it became known about the release of an improved version of this car. At the same time, applications for the purchase of the 2015 UAZ Patriot have begun. If you want to buy a car that looks elegant on city streets and does not care about off-road, then the information in this article will be of interest to you. Consider the technical characteristics of the UAZ Patriot 2015.
The main units of UAZ have not undergone significant changes, the SUV will be installed gas engine ZMZ 409.10 with a volume of 2.7 liters, maximum power 128 hp, which is achieved at 4400 rpm, with a maximum torque of 217 N * m at 2500 rpm, the number of cylinders in the engine is 4, the arrangement is in-line, as in previous models of engines of this series. Fuel injection type, operating on a distributed fuel injection system directly into the cylinders, and complying with the Euro-2 environmental standard.
The production of models with a 2.23-liter diesel engine of the ZMZ 51432 type, with a maximum power of 113 hp, which is achieved at 3500 rpm, with a maximum torque of 270 N * m at 1800-2800 rpm, the number of cylinders is provided. in-line arrangement and equal to four, fuel injection - injection. Beyond engines domestic production, previous models UAZ Patriot was equipped with an IVECO F1A diesel engine, made in Italy, and had the following characteristics: volume - 2.3 liters, the highest developed power - 116 hp at 3900 rpm crankshaft, maximum torque - 270 N * m at 2500 rpm. But on the UAZ 2015 model, this engine will not be installed.
As before, the role of the transmission is performed by a five-speed manual transmission. Full wheel drive - Part Time, the rear axle drive is constantly rotating, and the front one is manually connected. Efforts are distributed to the drive axles by a transfer case with an electric drive.
Logically, cars of this class cannot be classified as racing cars, however, the power of the UAZ engines is enough to confidently drive them both in tense urban traffic, where dynamic acceleration and maneuverability are required, and on bad road sections, where regular sedans not a place.
The gasoline engine will make it possible to accelerate to 150 kilometers per hour. In 20 seconds, the car will accelerate to 100 kilometers per hour, while consuming 12.5 liters of 92nd gasoline in mixed cycle; 10.5 l. on the highway, and 14.5 liters. in city mode. When driving at a speed of 90 km / h, the average fuel consumption will be 11-12 liters, and at 120 km / h - 15-16 liters.
With a diesel engine ZMZ 51432 the car develops maximum speed at 135 kilometers per hour, accelerating to 100 kilometers per hour in 22 seconds. Diesel fuel consumption in highway conditions will be about 9.5 liters at a speed of 90 km / h. As tests have shown, when converting a gasoline unit to gas, the fuel consumption began to be 16 liters per 100 kilometers.
UAZ Patriot 2015 has the following dimensions.
Classic - (length, wheelbase, width and height) - 4750 * 2760 * 1900 * 1910.
Comfort & Limited - (length, wheelbase, width and height) - 4785/2760/1900/2005. 1600 mm - front track and rear wheels, for the basic Classic, and 1610 for Comfort and Limited. Weight 2125 kg. for cars equipped with gasoline units and 2165 kg. for diesel engines. Permissible maximum weight "Petrol" cars - 2125 kilograms and 2165 for diesel versions... The maximum weight of the transported cargo is 525 kg. And as a result, the weight of the entire car will be 2650 and 2690 kilograms, respectively.
It will not be superfluous to note that the passport carrying capacity corresponds to 525 kilograms, but tests show that the weight of 600 kg is quite on the "shoulders" of this SUV. Clearance, or ground clearance for all trim levels 210 millimeters. half-meter indentations without difficulty, which is its excellent advantage in muddy roads. The ramp angle of thirty-five degrees allows him not to "sit on his belly" when hitting steep surfaces, and moving the city curbs will not be difficult at all.
The latest design inventions were not implemented when creating this SUV, but still an important detail appeared in the Patriot's suspension system, a stabilizer is installed on the rear axle for lateral stability, everything else is left unchanged, in the front there is a spring-type suspension, in the back there is a spring-type suspension. Brake system represented by disc brakes in front and rear of the usual drum type. Tires can be selected by configuration, for 16 and standard size 225 * 75 or 235 * 70. It is also provided for the installation of a reinforced protector for work in difficult conditions - 245/60 R18
Model UAZ 3163 (Patriot) is four-wheel drive car high cross-country ability from the class of SUVs, which was first introduced by the Russian car company UAZ in August 2005. The car looks very different from its predecessor - the UAZ 3162 model, the production of which was discontinued in 2005. Only distant features in the design resemble their relationship. The SUV has a modern dynamic appearance. The Patriot's body is a 5-door all-metal station wagon.
Under the hood of the UAZ 3163 is located zMZ engine-409.10 with a volume of 2.7 liters, the power of which is 128 hp. at 4400 rpm. The maximum torque of this power unit is 218 Nm at 2500 rpm. A new Mikas-11 controller with a misfire control function is now used to control the engine. UAZ Patriot equipped with a 5-speed manual gearbox with synchronizers in all gears of the forward and reverse... The South Korean company "Dimos" is engaged in the production of gearboxes for this model. Also, the car has a two-stage transfer case, which is controlled by one lever with four positions: rear drive direct, four-wheel drive in direct, neutral and four-wheel drive in downshift. The braking system includes front ventilated discs brakes - two working cylinders, a floating bracket, and rear drum brakes... All models have the main brake cylinder and a vacuum amplifier from Teves Continental, as well as an anti-lock aBS system from Bosch.
Front suspension UAZ 3163 dependent spring equipped cross stabilizer, and the rear, in turn, is based on semi-elliptical low-leaf springs. Both suspensions are equipped with double-acting hydraulic telescopic shock absorbers.
The UAZ Patriot has a five-seater cabin with four additional seats that can be installed in the luggage compartment, so nine people can be accommodated inside the car. Rear seats have two folded positions, allowing you to carry loads of different configurations and sizes, and under them is a box for tools and accessories. The cladding of the door panels, interior, center tunnel and seats are all done in the same style. In continuation of the casing, an additional glove box is installed between the front seats. On the floor of the body, a new noise and vibration isolation is laid, and next to the clutch pedal there is a support platform for the driver's left foot. Dashboard is equipped with an indicator of transmission operation, and the ignition key is also the key for the door locks. IN standard configuration an immobilizer is also provided.
The production of UAZ 3163 Patriot SUVs is successfully continuing at the present time. It should be noted that this model, having become more comfortable, has not become less practical, and its cross-country ability is only slightly inferior to other UAZ models, mainly due to the hinged decorative elements.
Since the start of sales, the car has undergone many changes. So in 2012, the second restyling took place. There were no transformations in appearance. All changes were made to the interior. The updated dashboard received a different design for the center console, the designers placed only two deflectors on it heating system instead of three, and also applied other control keys, and used plastic inserts cold silver color. The design of the panel on the passenger side has also changed; the traumatic handrail has disappeared, which in the event of an accident could become a source of serious injury. The power window buttons were placed on the panel between the front seats, and the seat heating controls are also located there. We installed a more traumatic four-spoke steering wheel.
The restyled cars were also equipped with a modern built-in heating and air conditioning system from one of the leading German manufacturers of climate systems, SANDEN. New remote climate control controls electric drives of ventilation and heating system dampers, unlike previous version with mechanical drives (cables).
The role of the audio system began to be played by the musical installation "Ural" with a monochrome screen, as well as with a Bluetooth module and USB-input.
In addition to updating the interior, there were also replenishment of complete sets. The main changes were made to the basic version of Classic. A radio tape recorder, electrically powered and heated mirrors, athermal glass, power windows on the front doors - now all these options are available as standard.
The updated 2012 Patriot comes with two powerplant options. The base engine was a 2.7-liter engine with a capacity of 128 hp, a torque of 210 nm is realized already at 2500 rpm. The motor is paired with a five-speed manual gearbox of the Korean company Dymos, which provides easy and precise shifting. Passport fuel consumption per 100 km of track when driving at a speed of 120 km / h is 14.9 liters. The speed ceiling is 140 km / h.
The more expensive modification is equipped with a new four-cylinder diesel power unit ZMZ 51432, its volume is 2.2 liters. The motor is capable of a return of 113 hp, torque of 270 Nm is available in the range of 1800-2800 rpm. With such characteristics, the car develops a speed of 135 km / h. Fuel consumption when driving at a speed of 120 km / h is 12.6 liters.
In the fall of 2014, the automaker underwent another update. Patriot 2015 model year got a redesigned grille, more sophisticated head optics with LED lights and retouched bumpers. In addition, Patriot 2015 can be recognized by its original taillights and the spare wheel cover on the boot lid, rear-view mirrors with integrated turn signals and other footrests. Bumpers are now attached to the body, and not to the frame, and all glass, except for the door, has become glued in.
The overall length of the Patriot 2015 is 4,750 mm, the wheelbase is 2,760, the width is 1,900, the height is 1,910, and the ground clearance (clearance) of the SUV is 210 millimeters. Increased cabin space due to 80 mm shifted aft rear seats reduced the volume luggage compartment 50 liters. The boot capacity is now limited to 1,150 liters.
The second row seats have lost their backrest tilt adjustment, but when the front seats are folded (without head restraints), they fall almost flush with the rear sofa, forming a berth. The trunk of the car now has a 12-volt outlet and a convenient curtain, and it is now safer to transport children with the addition of Isofix for child seats.
The interior of the car has also been modernized more than once over the years, but the main differences between the 2015 Patriot and the pre-reform version were the appearance of a modern multimedia system with a 7-inch touchscreen display, a rear-view camera and navigation system Navitel, available, however, only in expensive versions. In general, the interior has become much more modern, and the materials and assembly of the cabin are of higher quality.
A modified instrument panel can also be noted. Additional height adjustment has become available for the driver's seat. Optional " winter package»Includes heating windscreen, heating for the rear seats, additional heating of the interior, a more capacious battery and preheating of the engine.
The line of power units consists of two motors. The base engine for UAZ Patriot is a 2.7 liter gasoline unit ZMZ-40905 with a capacity of 128 hp (210 Nm at 2,500 rpm), and an alternative is a 140-horsepower (270 Nm in the range from 1,800 to 2,800 rpm) diesel ZMZ-51432 with Bosch injection system Common rail working volume of 2.3 liters.
Both engines are mated to a 5-speed manual transmission, giving the all-wheel-drive SUV a top speed of 150 km / h (diesel version develops 135 km / h). Fuel consumption in highway mode is declared within 11.5 liters for the petrol and 9.5 liters for the diesel version.
Of the major updates to other technical units, the rear cardan shaft with crosspieces and anti-roll bar. In addition, in the top trim levels, the outdated ABS from Bosch has been replaced by a more advanced four-channel anti-lock braking system.
Let's consider and compare the technical characteristics of the UAZ Patriot of different modifications.
Serial production of the all-wheel drive off-road vehicle UAZ-3163 Patriot at Ulyanovsk car factory was launched in 2005. It was based on the popular at that time modification with the code designation 3162, produced in 2000-2005. In 2008, the car was installed diesel engine from the Italian company IVECO, which in 2012 was replaced by a domestic analogue ZMZ; at the same time the front panel was changed. In 2013, a transfer case with electronic control ... Since 2014, a restyled model of this car has been produced.

There are not so many SUVs of classic design left on the market by now. One of the most attractive offers is UAZ Patriot. On the one hand, this is the most budget car of this class and size, and on the other - the most expensive, largest and equipped among the massive Russian passenger cars and SUVs. Further, the article discusses fuel consumption, the history of the model, its place in the market.
Story
UAZ-3163 has been in production since 2005. It is a descendant of the Model 3162 "Simbir" and is technically a deeply modernized version of it. The car became more comfortable, but inherited the body structure, chassis, engines.
During production, the car has undergone several upgrades, both large and less significant, affecting and technical part, both design and interior.
Body
The model under consideration has a frame structure that is classic for SUVs. The main body is also a five-door station wagon traditional for such cars. Its length is 4.75 m, width - 1.9 m, height - 1.91 m, wheelbase - 2.76 m.The weight of the car is 2.125 tons. In addition, there are options: 4-door pickup and 2-door van.
Engines
For the entire production period, four engines were available: two gasoline and two diesel.
Transmission
All versions of the car are equipped exclusively with a 5-speed manual transmission.In addition, they are all four-wheel drive. System all-wheel drive organized according to the Part-Time principle. That is, constantly leading is rear axle, and the front wheels are rigidly connected if necessary. For this, a 2-stage electromechanical transfer case from electrically driven and a reduction gear.
Chassis
Both suspensions are dependent. Front - spring, with anti-roll bar. At the rear, a bridge is installed on small-leaf semi-elliptical longitudinal springs.
Front disc brakes, rear - drum mechanisms.
Wheels are available in 16 and 18 inches.
Interior
The interior trim and equipment of the UAZ "Patriot" model are very simple, but acceptable for such a price. The interiors of the earlier versions were the most modest, and yet they were quite modern at the time for russian cars... For example, soft plastic was used to make the front panel (until 2016), which is unusual for them even now. Currently available leather interior, climate control, etc.
Modernization
In 2006, ABS was included as standard and the seat upholstery was changed.
In 2008, the engine cooling system was improved, as well as the climate and ventilation systems of the passenger compartment. The car was brought to environmental standards "Euro-3".
Since 2009, a leather interior, an electric sunroof and a net in the trunk have been offered as additional equipment.
The restyling of 2012 made the interior more modern. So, the dashboard was updated, the steering wheel was replaced, the front passenger's traumatic handle was removed, and a new 2DIN radio tape recorder with a USB connector was installed.
Some interior updates were made in 2013. Due to a change in the design of the all-wheel drive system, the transfer case engaging lever was replaced with a washer. Modernized design hand brake... The control unit for power windows and mirrors was moved to driver's door... The headliner, passenger handles and rear-view mirror were changed. Finally, a "winter package" was added as an option, including heated rear seats, windshield and an individual heater for rear passengers.
During the 2014 update, both the design and the interior of the UAZ Patriot model were modernized. New body received other bumpers and lighting. In the cabin, the design of the seats was changed, and as additional equipment they began to offer multimedia system with navigation and rear view camera. The technical update consisted of the addition of an anti-roll bar and an upgrade cardan shafts.
UAZ "Patriot" in 2016 again received a different front panel, as well as steering column adjustment, another gearshift lever, belts with pretensioners. As an option, they began to offer front airbags, front parking sensors, cruise and climate control, a cooled glove compartment. Improved noise and vibration isolation. As for technical innovations, they added an imitation of cross-wheel locks, and a rear differential lock was included in the additional equipment. The double tank was replaced with a single one, the anti-corrosion coating was improved, the steering column was redesigned, and ESP was added. Outwardly, only the radiator grill has changed.
Driving performance
The car was equipped with engines of very modest performance, which determines its technical characteristics (UAZ "Patriot"). The fuel consumption is due to the same.
The turbo diesel can only accelerate the car to 135 km / h. At the same time, it consumes 9.5 liters of diesel fuel per 100 km in suburban conditions and 11.5 liters in mixed conditions. Original version gasoline engine provides a maximum speed of 150 km / h.
Off-road, the car performs well due to its good geometry and long suspension travel. In difficult conditions, however, engine performance is often insufficient. In the 2016 version, the passability was increased by equipping with interlocks.
The cost
The car in question is the most expensive among Russian ones, and also one of the most equipped, especially at the time of entering the market. VAZ models similar in equipment appeared significantly later car UAZ "Patriot". Options and prices correspond to the top level budget cars... The price range ranges from 0.779 to 1.03 million rubles.
Market place
This SUV is a very attractive offer in the local market, which is due to the rather high popularity of the modelUAZ "Patriot". Its configuration and prices correspond to some compact crossovers, but they are smaller and significantly inferior in cross-country ability. There are also cheaper models of the classic confrom manuals, but they are also more compact. That is, there are almost no classic SUVs of similar size on the market at such a low cost.Specifications (UAZ "Patriot"), fuel consumption and the cost is close to only one Chinese model: Great wall Hover H3.
The car is currently only available with one engine and one gearbox. In the future, the appearance of turbocharged engine, automatic transmission, as well as a permanent all-wheel drive system. This perspective has been confirmed by the manufacturer. UAZ "Patriot" is planning to equip the checkpoint of a third-party company, and the transmission and engine are being developed independently.
UAZ Patriot has already undergone a sufficient number of improvements to improve the various performance of this SUV. The last such revision of the Patriot took place in 2014, although 2015 appears in the prefix to the name of the car. Therefore, we will consider the technical characteristics of the UAZ Patriot 2015, but first we will describe what features in appearance and interior design inherent in the updated SUV.
Exterior and interior changes
The exterior of the car was slightly retouched. A new radiator grill has appeared, making the exterior a little more fun. The headlights were completely replaced, they also changed the lighting equipment, and added LED "walkers".

The second engine, which is installed on the Patriot, is a diesel with a volume of 2.2 liters. This unit uses the Common Rail power system developed by Bosh. Its classification is also Euro-4.
By power diesel unit concedes gasoline engine... Develops a diesel engine of 113 hp. at a speed of 3, 5 thousand. But the torque is higher - 270 Nm, is achieved in the range of 1, 8-2, 8 thousand revolutions. 
The Patriot has one transmission, and it comes with both motors in the kit. The transmission consists of a 5-speed mechanical box gear. The SUV also has a two-stage transfer case. The transfer case control drive is electric.
UAZ Patriot is equipped with a drive on both axles. Moreover permanent drive has only a rear axle, the front one is connected, the connection of the front axle is rigid.
From changes in the design of the transmission in renewed Patriot it can only be noted that the appearance of new cardan shafts with a maintenance-free design. 
The dynamic performance and speed indicators of the UAZ Patriot are not particularly outstanding. Although the element of this SUV is off-road, so these indicators are not particularly important. All technical indicators are below:
1) 2, 7 p. petrol
- maximum speed - 150 km / h;
- fuel consumption - 11.5 l / 100 km.
- maximum speed - 135 km / h;
- fuel consumption - 9, 5 l / 100 km.
At the rear, a dependent suspension is also used, but already a spring one. Update brought installation to design rear suspension stabilizer.
There is information that in the future power plants UAZ Patriot will be recycled. It is also known that in the future this SUV will acquire automatic transmission, but when exactly this will happen is unknown.
