Pros and cons compact machines

As in any class of cars, in the class of compact cars there are plays and cons. Someone can say that this is not the case, saving fuel, compact sizes and convenient parking, this is what can be attributed to the pros. So compact car can be easily parked, drive narrow streets Or simply turn in the city traffic jam.

But there are also disadvantages, in particular, these are small dimensions of the interior, for family or long distance travels, such cars are not always suitable, especially if you need to take a lot of baggage. Often, even an additional trunk on the roof will not save the situation.

The second is saving fuel, even the car and compact, but the situation with the engines will not always be the most optimal. Many car manufacturers, in pursuit of power, establish the turbines, thereby killing all sorts of fuel economy. Sometimes more powerful engines Significantly savingly than turbocharged small trains. Another same is the dynamics of compact cars, as a rule, overclocking up to hundreds is not so fast, and the maximum speed does not exceed 150-170 km / h, although there may be more than 200 km / h on the speedometer. This is due to the fact that compact machines Small and on high speed Simply, an unexpected situation may occur.

Video Avtovstava New in Geneva 2017:

What car can be called sports? Car with a 12-cylinder engine? You think that the sports car under the hood should be at least 500 hp, and the dynamics of overclocking from 0 to 100 km / h should be less than 5 seconds? From part it is so of course. But because of such technical characteristics, as we basically, we all imagine, such sports cars Too roads and are actually not available for purchase for most citizens of motorists. But ... (?) Today in the automotive market of the entire world community for those who dream to acquire for themselves and who are not so important (big) such motor vehicleFor relatively small money, the last (motorist) can acquire a tuning capable, to make your own technical characteristics to feel your owner's real sports drive on the highway.

Yes, it became real today, in addition to factory versions of powerful microllers, in fact, in reality, there are now many other tuning cars that, despite their small motors, which are installed under their hoods, carry and contain the most optimal relations (indicators) Power to their weight, which specifically allows them to owners (drivers) to feel all the charms of the drive, that is, to feel exactly the same similar feelings that most owners experience themselves.

ABARTH 695 Biposto.


Tuning company "ABARTH" engaged in the release of powerful special cars On the basis of Auto Fiat, released a car model ABARTH 695 BIPOSTO for motorists. The machine is based and built.

Volkswagen Polo GTI


This car is one of the most famous racing CD-class racing cars. Recently, the POLO GTI Machine has received a small rastering for itself. So, from the old 1.6 lithuan Engine "I decided to refuse and replace it with a more-powerful 1.8 liter turbochargent gasoline motor in 192 hp with a maximum torque of 320 nm.


In the end, this new engine allows you to now accelerate the car from the scene to a hundred kilometers in just 6.7 seconds, which will say quite well. The maximum speed of the car is 236 km / h.


November 22, 1960 from the conveyor Zaporizhia Plant "Communar" in Ukraine, the first industrial batch of cars "Zaporozhets" went on ZAZ-965. On the eve of this significant for the Soviet auto industry, we have prepared an overview of the most compact small-masses from around the world.





Peel P50 Since 1962, it is firmly held by the title of the very little car in the world. It was developed by the company Peel Engineering and was produced from 1962 to 1965. A compact microheateromethem had only one door, one fair, accompanied "one person with a small bag" and developed the maximum speed of about 60 km / h. However, he himself was something like a big bag with a motor: the car was equipped with a handle, because with a weight of 59 kg dragged him quite easily. In terms of modern money, P50 cost $ 2,000. A total of 50 cars were produced, and survived to this day - 27. In 2010, an updated company Peel Engineering Ltd. I decided to resurrect Peel, equipping it with a modern filling and an electric motor.

Mercedes Smart Fortwo.





Smart Fortwo. first was presented to Frankfurt Motor Show In 1997. It is made since the 1998th. Because of the concept, Smart earned a lot of awards for its extraordinary, at the time, design. It is worth noting that Fortwo has become the first car equipped with an internet access point. The original series of cars was produced only two years, but then modified and improved versions came to replace.

Corbin Sparrow





One of the first urban electric vehicles was Corbin Sparrow (now MYERS MOTORS NMG). For his unusual appearance, he received many nicknames who later became official names (Pizza Butt and Jelly Bean). Sparrow was made from 1999 to 2003, and in 2005 he was renamed and produced to this day. Since 2008, it is possible to buy a cute electric car at a price of $ 29,995.

AIXAM 400.



AIXAM 400. It was made since 1983 and equipped with a 50-cubic engine with a rather simple "stuffing", which affected his small cost. Since 2002, Aixam has become made under the MEGA brand, but large and spacious cars have become in priority.

Microcar M.Go Electric





Microcar M.Go Electric was first introduced to paris Motor Show in 2008. Now it is produced under the brand of one of the largest manufacturers of micro-car - Ligier Automobiles. M.Go is made in several variations that differ in type of engine: S, S Pack, Mica, Sxi, Sport and Full-Electric.





Unusual concept Geely McCar. It can not only easily move along the loaded roads, but also help you get to the destination by narrow streets, because the most ordinary moped is installed in his trunk. However, it did not significantly affect its capacity. Seemingly compact car actually has pretty spacious salon With 4 seats.

RENAULT TWIZY.





Double electric car RENAULT TWIZY. I went on sale in 2012. In the same year, he was awarded award for the most sold electrical vehicle movement in Europe. It is equipped with a lithium-ion accumulator with a capacity of 7 kWh and is able to drive about 100 km without recharging. There are several versions of an electric vehicle with different technical characteristics and slightly different bodies.

Revai.





Indian rear-wheel drive car Revai. Produced company REVA ELECTRIC CAR COMPANY From 2008 to 2012. The electric motor accelerate the car up to 80 km / h. Lithium-ion batteries, located under the seats, have grabbed 80 km of way.

Zündapp Janus.





Zündapp Janus. was named after the two-roman god of Janus. Actually, in "milkers" and there was a peculiarity of his design. The car was equipped with two doors (front and rear) and two seats located back to each other. The 250-cubic motor was installed in the floor between the seats. Throughout the release of Janus, it was constantly modified and improved, however, he did not enjoy great demand from motorists - probably watch the trip with rear seat It was not very exciting. Almost all the remaining instances are now in museums.

Town Life Helektra.



Prototype of the first "Zaporozhets", as, however, and many others soviet carswas Fiat. However, the "humpback" was more suitable for our roads, thanks rear drive, more modern suspension and enlarged wheels. At the time of its appearance in 1960, the car cost 18,000 most expensive rubles. There was a legend that its price was determined as the cost of 1000 bottles of vodka. Now "Zaporozhets" is a favorite car of restorers and collectors. Some of them are even ready to pay several thousand dollars for a used car.

GTÜ organizes data based on results technical inspections. From the tables attached below, you can make a number of unambiguous conclusions. First, regardless of the age group, the same cars are followed in the first rows. Secondly, for relatively young cars (up to 5 years) from the top ten discrepancies in the number of failures are very small. Thirdly, the best indicators of the bounce of 9-year-old cars guarantee the presence of good position in the rating of 4-5-year-old cars. Fourthly, with age, the indicator of refusals of car leading positions is growing much slower than the latter. So in the case of Toyota Prius. The number of faults is increased from only 7.83 to 35.14, and in the case of Alfa Romeo - from 30.31 to 157.52.

And so, meet - the least problematic compact cars according to the German GTÜ organization.

1. Toyota.Prius.II (2004-2009) - the leader of reliability in all age categories

Reliability index - 7.83(The average number of defects for every 100 cars studied; the lower, the better)

Toyota Prius is offered only with one engine and body option - 5-door compact with hybrid power installation and automatic box Transmissions. Due to the complex design, this model is even after warranty period It can be properly serviced and repaired only in the official service center. Accordingly, it can be assumed that the cost of repair will be large. In practice, due to the trouble-free work, the above average, maintenance is reduced exclusively to periodic inspections and replacements supplies, such as oil, brake pads And discs. It is worth noting that consumables are inexpensive. Having rushing to calm down for the possible astronomical costs associated with replacement rechargeable battery: Battery life of 10 years. But even after this period, it is suitable for operation, because it only performs the function of an additional source of energy replenished while driving.

Advantages:

Reliability level unattainable for other ordinary cars

Low fuel consumption

Effective sound insulation

Many space for passengers

Disadvantages:

Only one is not too strong version of the engine.

Post-warranty repair and maintenance is better to exercise only in authorized service centers

2. Audi.A3.II (2003-2012)

Reliability index - 8.82


The main advantage of the second generation Audi A3 is a spacious, carefully assembled and effectively protected from corrosion body. Another plus is easily accessible and cheap spare parts. If the budget is limited, then the options under consideration are better limited to two versions equipped, albeit with old but tested engines: gasoline 1.6 8V and 1.9 TDI PD. You can also rely on the diesel motors that appeared after restyling 1.6 and 2.0 TDI CR with the power system COMMON RAIL.. Most gasoline engines with direct injection Fuel is very advanced in technical Plan And therefore tend to failure in work. Economical and dynamic diesel 2.0 TDI PD turned out unsuccessful and over the years requires more and higher costs.

Advantages:

Excellent performance

Careful selection of materials

Effective corrosion protection

Wide service network

Disadvantages:

High cost of used A3

Modern gasoline engines roads in repair

3. Volkswagen Golf VI / Golf Plus (2008-2013)

Reliability index - 9.5


We can say about the sixth golf that it is Golf V, cured from childhood diseases. Among engines, you can rely on all diesel engines with the COMMON Rail power system. In the line of motors, outdated, but reliable gasoline 1.6 8V, which is perfectly protected with gas equipment. Gasoline 1.4 TSI is a very risky acquisition, especially in the most powerful version. Looking after a relatively young copy with a mileage of less than 100,000 km, you can pay attention to golf with a double box. clutch DSG.. Preference is better to give a 7-speed box with dry clutch, DSG 6 has a completely different design. The main thing is not to forget to produce oil replacement after 100,000 km.

Advantages:

Much more high qualitythan in Golf V

Successful engine 2.0 TDI CR

Disadvantages:

In the line of engines there are no modern, powerful and reliable gasoline motors

4. Volkswagen.Golf.V /Jetta (2003-2008)

Reliability index - 10.08


If the fourth golf could be safely taken in the blind, except, perhaps, versions from 1.6 FSI, then the fifth golf should not do so. Yes, Golf 5 became more comfortable, it is better managed and has more horses under the hood, but for all this has to pay more high expenses for maintenance. If GTÜ experts only considered models with a 2.0 TDI PD and DSG or 1.4 TSI engine, as well with DSG, then Golf V would probably close all the tables at the end of the list. As in the case of the AUDI A3 described above, the reliability guarantees only old and tested engines 1.6 8V and 1.9 TDI. You can also take into account 2.0 FSI. Other engines and box dSG transmissions - This is a real roulette.

Advantages:

Wide service network

Big supply of new cheap spare parts

Good level of comfort

Excellent behavior on the road

Disadvantages:

Low reliability popular Engine 2.0 TDI

5. Toyota.Auris.I (2007-2013)

Reliability index - 10.72


Compared with Volkswagen Golf. The number of versions of Auris is significantly less. But how it does not sound paradoxically, the motors worthy of attention much more. Perhaps you can recommend all gasoline engines. They are reliable, economical and do not require maintenanceSince all of them has a chain type timing. Most optimal engine From the point of view of performance and fuel consumption 1.6 VVT-I. Diesels are also good, but we draw attention to the fact that in just a year after the start of the release of this model, all turbodiesel areas received a solid particle filter as a mandatory equipment. If you still want to purchase a diesel version, then first of all it is worth paying attention to 1.4 D-4D. Unlike more powerful fellow 2.0 D-4D and 2.2 D-4D, it does not have a two-mask flywheel and is powered by a proven Bosch injection system, which, if necessary, is easily restored.

Really Toyota Auris. practically perfect car? No. First, the car is on secondary market significantly overvalued - instances in good condition There are a fortune. Secondly, his interior is too fast "old."

Advantages:

Gasoline engines have exceptional reliability

Very low risk of unexpected trouble

Disadvantages:

Cheap interior decoration materials

Excessively high prices for used cars

6. BMW 1 Series (2004-2011)

Reliability index - 10.84


If someone is more important to driving pleasure than practicality, then the BMW 1-series is the desired choice. The car does not have a big and roomingly salonAnd about belonging to premium class resembles a fairly large price. This is the only car in the rating with a drive to rear wheels, high quality interior decoration and powerful top-in-six-cylinder engine. The choice of any version with a gasoline engine eliminates the risk of an unexpected stop on the road due to problems with the motor almost to zero. The most optimal BMW modification with four-cylinder 118i. WITH diesel aggregates Cases are different - some copies have problems with the timing chain. The owner of diesel modifications after 200 thousand km should be ready to replace the turbochargeor, two-mask flywheel and solid particle filter. Find well-keeled BMW is very difficult.

Advantages:

Very high quality finish

Reliable and viable gasoline engines

Rear drive

Disadvantages:

High prices for a used car

Small trunk

7. Honda.CivicVIII (2006-2011)

Reliability index - 11.14


In the case of this car, the choice is simple: the recommendations are worthy of two gasoline engines - a 100-strong working volume of 1.4 and 140-strong 1.8 I-VTEC. Both engines provide almost lifelong reliability. Diesel 2.2 i-Ctdi is also pretty good, but too big for the car this class. In addition, it is relatively roads to repair, which is not an advantage for a used car. Many owners of Civic VIII, comparing it with previous generationscomplain about more low quality Finishing materials. One of the common defects, known in the predecessor - premature wear of bearings in the gearbox. As a result, noise appears, which does not prevent the car moving.

Absence diesel engines low power Moves some owners to resort to the installation of LPG. This is not recommended to do so, as the engine resource can significantly reduce.

Advantages:

Powerful and economical gasoline engines

Practical trunk

Disadvantages:

High price

Lack of small economy diesel

8. Mazda 3. I (2003-2009)

Reliability index - 11.45


In the reliability rating, this model is among the best. All because GTÜ experts do not take into account the corrosion resistance with which Mazda has serious problems. Before buying, careful inspection of the car is needed, as many copies on the secondary market are already repainted due to corrosion.

Technically Mazda 3 built on the basis Ford Focus. General are a number of suspension elements and some engines. Most. safe choice Stant gasoline versions. It is quite enough and the base 1,4-liter motor, but the most optimal option is a 1.6-liter engine with a capacity of 105 hp The diesel 1.6 CITD is also recommended, known by Ford, like 1.6 TDCI, and on Peugeot and Citroen, like 1.6 HDI. It is not necessary to acquire a diesel modification with a 2.0 MZR-CD engine equipped with a DPF filter.

Advantages:

Attractive prices

Good performance

Reliable engines

Economical 1.6-liter diesel

Disadvantages:

Bad corrosion protection

Problems with solid particle filter in Diesel 2.0 MZR-CD

Dear spare parts

9. Subaru.Impreza.GH (2007-2011)

Reliability index - 11.86


High positions Subaru Impreza. The ranking is more likely to glorify the Japanese brand, but this does not mean that the impregnation is worth a purchase. Impreza is a specific model that despite the extremely high quality of manufacture, requires large maintenance costs due to expensive original spare parts and expensive service services. All impends have a tight built-in opposite Engine and permanent four-wheel drivethat increases the requirements for the minimum plank of professionalism of mechanics. Basic gasoline engines are not impressive with their performance, and also consume a lot of fuel. Sports models with turbosways are even less economical, but at least allow you to get great driving pleasure. Diesels pretty quickly wear the clutch, and with it a two-mask flywheel. The most optimal force aggregate - 2-liter 4-cylinder gasoline 150-strong oppositor.

Advantages:

Permanent four-wheel drive for four wheels

Excellent characteristics of turbocharged gasoline engines

Very economical diesel

Disadvantages:

High maintenance cost

Dear spare parts

Small selection of used cars

Judge for yourself: thanks to its compact dimensions, a small car can be easier to maneuver in dense downtown traffic and it's easier to find parking place, and having driven or leaving him, the little less than its "senior comrades" is at risk of hooking a neighboring car or other surrounding items.

Due to the relatively modest volume of the engine, the small car consumes fuel significantly more than other cars.

And in our country, where gasoline prices are growing even when they are decreasing all over the world, it is always one of the most important criteria when choosing a vehicle! In addition, small cars themselves can be called the most affordable class.

In the auto show of the official dealer "MAS MOTORS" The widest variety of small cargo cars in Russia, China, Korea, Japan, USA, France, Germany and other European countries is presented. Our prices are among the lowest on the market!
