Test drive g crossovers. The cheapest crossover in Russia: the top five representatives

In order to notice the annual growth in the share of inexpensive compact crossovers in Russia from total weight cars, it is not necessary to refer to statistics - just look at domestic roads. Increasingly, motorists prefer a crossover rather than a hatchback or station wagon, and therefore it is time to find out which new crossovers up to 1,000,000 rubles are the most popular in our country.

The rating “New crossovers up to 1,000,000 rubles” will cover both the products of foreign concerns, and will not bypass domestic manufacturer. If right now you are thinking about choosing a crossover up to a million and have not yet decided which crossover to buy, this article will be useful to you.

So, let's turn to the list of the most popular crossovers in 2017 in our country!

Renault Captur

The list of the most popular crossovers in 2017 in our country is opened by the French concern Renault, which has long and firmly occupied a leading position in the production of inexpensive family crossovers. And if Duster, which has already become legendary, is more focused on the older audience, then Kaptur, which was released recently, will appeal to a younger audience. Stylish, but concise design, coupled with good power under the hood - from 143 horses, bring the pleasure of driving this car.

It certainly will not accelerate to hundreds in a couple of seconds, but it performs the most important functions for a car in its segment: a roomy trunk and enough spacious salon, extremely moderate fuel consumption of about 6.9 liters per 100 km in mixed mode, as well as quite good cross-country ability for such a baby - this car definitely not left without an audience. The more pleasant the price - a car in the Life starter package can be purchased from 850,000 rubles, and if you find a suitable promotional offer, then for this amount you will get an already well-stuffed copy.

Nissan Terrano


Built on the same B0 platform as Renault Captur, Terrano clearly outperforms its predecessor in terms of the direct duties of a small SUV. luggage compartment it may well compete with crossovers of a higher class, and the cross-country ability will allow not only timid exits from paved roads, but also full-fledged off-road raids.

Unfortunately, for the amount of one million rubles, indicated by the ceiling in our rating, you will not be able to purchase a brand new all-wheel drive Nissan Terrano- you will have to add 50,000 rubles, but you can take the front-wheel drive version in maximum configuration, and therefore the comfort on trips will be the maximum possible. At the start this model can be purchased for 893,000 rubles, but a wide number of options will allow you to assemble the version closest to you personally for the remaining hundred. Without a doubt, a crossover that deserves special attention.

Ford EcoSport

The smallest crossover on the list. Built on the basis of the legendary hatchback Ford Fiesta, EcoSport loses to competitors in interior and trunk capacity, but not in comfort and technical qualities. Basic kit equipped gasoline engine on 1.6l, as well as steel wheels, an audio system, air conditioning and a stability control system - good input.

Ford is traditionally famous for its wide system of bonuses and discounts, and therefore, by choosing the right offer, for example, for Trade-in or recycling, you can assemble a crossover equipped with climate control and heated front seats for 950,000 rubles, which is not always possible to achieve on the basis of cheaper competitors.

Chery Tiggo 5


Now meet the biggest competitor. This model is 17 cm longer than the solid one relative to the Kaptur class, and its weight is 250 kg more. Chery hard and with a creak came on Russian market, but as soon as the quality of the products stabilized, it became a car manufacturer very close to the heart of the Russian motorist.

And the choice of domestic drivers can be understood, with a price commensurate with the rest of the rating positions, you get a two-liter engine, albeit one that does not have amazing traction, and there is enough space in the car for the whole family and a whole trunk of equipment for recreation. The starting kit can be purchased for 899,900 rubles, but we recommend opting for the car option with automatic transmission gears, leather interior, cruise control and other joys of life, which will fit exactly one million rubles. Then the time spent in the company of this car will be truly unforgettable.

Kia Soul


In terms of compactness - a direct competitor Ford EcoSport, but the clearance here is even lower - 160mm, and therefore it is not necessary to demand from this car the ability to overcome obstacles. The main advantage of this machine is its organic nature in the urban environment, accompanied by minimal consumption, environmental friendliness and compactness.

The price, starting from 850,000 rubles, is not so small for this crumb, but the choice is always yours. With our Kia review Soul you can find by clicking on the following .

Renault Duster


The permanent leader in sales in its segment. Every fifth Russian who wants to buy an inexpensive crossover opts for Renault Duster. Almost 50,000 domestic car owners chose this car last year. What was the reason for such success?

First of all, of course, the price is from 629,000 rubles, so getting a small SUV on a budget has never been as easy as it is now. Another definite plus is four-wheel drive, which allows you to feel confident in the Russian realities of suddenly ending roads. The spaciousness of both the cabin and the trunk, as well as the comfort with which this car rides quietly and measuredly, make it an ideal companion for a country holiday. You can check this thesis by leaving Moscow on Friday evening from mid-spring to mid-autumn along any highway from the city - there will be a Duster in each lane.

Chevrolet Niva


And here is the collaboration worldwide famous brand and domestic car manufacturer. Not a single third-party concern, even after careful research, will be able to understand Russian specifics better than those who drive these roads themselves, and therefore everything in this crossover is for the Russian soul - high ground clearance, cheap parts, and most importantly, the price of the car itself - from 585 000 rubles.

The cross-country ability of this model can compete not only with classmates, whom Niva is much superior, but also with larger crossovers, for example Mitsubishi Pajero or even a Toyota Landcruiser. For such a price - great option for lovers of outdoor activities, hunting or fishing.

Hyundai Creta


The Korean manufacturer has long filled the Russian roads with an innumerable number of Solaris, and recently decided to seriously get down to business and push back from Olympus inexpensive crossovers Renault Duster, which, judging by the sales statistics, he managed to fulfill by the end of last year.

The strong features of the car traditionally include its appearance. Indeed, among the cars listed in the rating, it looks the most impressive and it is difficult to imagine that the starting version starts at a price of 660,000 rubles. But the lack of a car is also buried here - it looks much more spectacular than it rides, and therefore many buyers complain about the lack of dynamism or the lack of qualities of a serious SUV. If you are looking for a nice inexpensive SUV, then the choice in favor of Creta is obvious, but if you want a drive or an all-terrain vehicle, you should think better.

Nissan Juke


And here is a clear favorite among female motorists, although if we put aside the specific body design, then the crossover has something to surprise drivers of the stronger sex. In the starting configuration, the car is equipped with a 177-horsepower engine, which, frankly, is an impressive indicator for this segment.

The car, of course, is designed for the urban environment and does not feel very confident outside the paved roads, low ground clearance makes itself felt. The capacity of the crossover is quite average, therefore, it may not be enough to transport all unnecessary trash to the country house. But if you choose a perky crossover for family travel or for domestic needs like transporting children to sections and trips to supermarkets, then this car will show itself from the best side. True, he has the highest price on the list - for a million you will only get a starter package, but for this you will have to carefully follow the offers of the auto dealer market.

Skoda Yeti


It has long been known and loved by the Russian public crossover. It is worth noting its variability - you can assemble your equipment both on the basis of an extremely economical and calm 1.2l engine, and bet on dynamism by forking out for a two-liter engine. The design of the car is original, but it always has fans, and in terms of build quality and dealer service, Skoda is traditionally very good.

Cheaper than a million, again, this car cannot be purchased, but Skoda never releases its models, focusing on the lower bar of the segment. A roomy interior and trunk, as well as excellent ground clearance, coupled with enviable reliability, are worth the amount they ask for. A comfortable, well-controlled city car for the city and family holidays - that's all about the Skoda Yeti.

We hope you will now right choice car, having read our rating “Crossovers up to 1,000,000 rubles”.

Crossovers are becoming more and more popular on domestic roads, enabling their owners not only to breathe exhaust gases in city traffic jams, but also to engage in outdoor activities, go out of town and travel around the country and abroad with comfort. In order for our reader to decide on the choice of a car that suits him personally, we have prepared our rating of crossovers in terms of reliability and quality in 2017 in Russia.

First of all, we suggest that you decide on the tasks that the crossover will have to help you solve. Total best crossovers can be divided into three types:

  • Compact SUVs designed for the urban environment, but more passable than sedans and less costly to use than their larger counterparts;
  • SUVs of medium size, already confidently coping with off-road, but still not consuming 20 liters per 100 kilometers;
  • And a full-size SUV, whose task is to transport the maximum possible number of passengers or cargo and confidently pass sections of the road that smaller cars cannot handle.

Mercedes GLC

Reliable premium crossover. This car is very popular among wealthy buyers, and also receives constant accolades from auto experts, and this is not surprising. In addition to the stylish and aggressive design that catches the eye at the first meeting, the car has something to surprise in the technological component.


Permanent all-wheel drive with electronic stabilization allows the owner not to think about the capabilities of the car, falling beyond the limits of quality pavement. An extremely worthy electronic filling will allow you not to waste your nerves when parking on the crowded streets of megacities. Very modest fuel consumption, about 7 liters per hundred, will make even the owners of inexpensive crossovers lick their lips in 2017. But for the most reliable and economical crossover, you will have to pay a tidy sum - starting from 3,000,000 rubles, not everyone can afford it.

bmw x6

Do not say that you did not turn your head in the street looking at this "monster" when the German concern just started to supply it to Russia. The driving comfort of this car is truly unprecedented, which the Bavarian engineers achieve with a huge number of electronic options such as a navigation system or a night vision system. Fuel consumption is quite moderate for a car of similar dimensions and class - 8.5 liters in mixed mode or 11.5 in the city.

TO weak points the lucky ones who own this car attribute the suspension, but we will attribute the price, almost four million for the starting package - this is a serious blow to the budget. But if you are not embarrassed by the financial issue, then you will not regret your choice.

Audi Q5

Another German concern and another premium crossover. Solid dimensions and the famous Audi quality give a feeling of complete reliability behind the wheel, and the aesthetically verified design immediately demonstrates that the owner of the car belongs to a wealthy class.


Moderate fuel consumption in mixed mode, as well as a high suspension, even by the standards of the class, and an impressive trunk volume provide an opportunity for comfortable travel both with the family and in the male company of hunters or fishermen. The average cost is already somewhat less than that of its predecessors - about 2,400,000 rubles, not a little, but you have to pay for comfort and safety.

Subaru Forester

Finally, we got to the Japanese automakers. If you choose between an economical and reliable crossover, then you don’t have to do this at all thanks to Subaru Forester. Excellent four-wheel drive makes the car very popular among fans of long trips around the country without thinking about the car's cross-country ability.


The design of the Forester is no longer so bright and attractive against the background of German crossovers, but not everyone considers this an important property of an SUV, the primary task of which is good cross-country ability and comfort. The cost of the car is a subject for discussion - but should a non-luxury car cost about 1,800,000? If you choose "SUV", then I would say - no. But in the case of active off-road activity, this is a great choice.

Honda CR-V

But with Honda, the situation is reversed - if you mainly move around in urban areas good roads, then this model will give odds even to expensive counterparts from German automakers. hydraulic clutch in rear axle makes moving around the city even at high speeds absolutely comfortable and silent.


The downside, as you understand, is the direct functionality of an SUV - a clearance of 170mm is not serious by the standards of the Russian landscape and the quality of the roads, which leaves much to be desired. A two-liter Honda in the basic configuration will cost 1,500,000 rubles, which makes it a good choice as a good urban crossover.

KIA Sportage

And now we have reached the representatives of the class, which in Russia is known as a crossover - this is a small compact SUV that has a number of advantages of larger colleagues. I would like to note right away that, like other KIA models, the Sportage shows excellent results in matters of environmental friendliness, safety and comfort. Nimble and assertive, this crossover will be an excellent choice in urban driving mode, and fuel consumption in the city of about 10 liters will be a nice bonus for your wallet.


Another nice aspect is the price for this car, which starts from 1,200,000.

Toyota RAV4

An SUV that has long been loved by domestic motorists. Simplicity of design is sometimes cited as a downside, but Toyota's conservatism has its own elegance. Easy to drive and with good suspension, this crossover will be a good travel companion, which will also help with an extremely capacious trunk.


The price for this model starts from 1,280,000 rubles, which, at the current exchange rate, seems like a fair price for comfort and convenience. You should not expect an envious look in an urban environment, but getting into serious trouble in the wilderness, many will envy Toyota owners RAV4.

Volkswagen Tiguan

The youngest of the SUV family from Volkswagen fell in love with Russian drivers much more due to its modest price, starting at 1,200,000, and there is something to pay for it. The electronic filling was inherited from the Tuareg, which means that the car is equipped to the highest standard - TDI and TSI technologies, a DSG robotic transmission with double clutch– all this will add to the pleasant experience of driving this practical machine.


Fuel consumption, as well as the price of the car itself, are pleasantly pleasing, but the fact that the crossover was assembled in the Kaluga region, and not at German factories, may not leave the most pleasant impression, especially since the Germans themselves managed to blunder during design engine compartment, which is why it is clean only in a car dealership.

Nissan Quashqai

compact crossover, which comes in both all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive options, will not leave indifferent fans of inexpensive crossovers for the urban environment. Despite the visual small dimensions, the car can fit up to 7 people, which will appeal to lovers of family holidays.


This model traditionally falls into the lists of the best-selling cars both in Russia and in Europe, which is not surprising - the price starts from a million rubles and this is certainly one of the best offers on the market for lovers of a measured and leisurely drive towards the dacha. You should not place sky-high expectations on this model, but it will cope with its direct functions with a bang.

VolvoXC90

We will dilute the hegemony of the German and Japanese manufacturers Swedish flagship from Volvo. The advantages are traditional for this brand - you will not find a car that will receive more awards for safety. Huge, it would seem, the interior is quite remarkably controlled thanks to the excellent 6-speed automatic transmission, and then driving in any conditions will be tough for this SUV.


The disadvantage is also understandable for Volvo - you are unlikely to want to buy this car if for such a significant amount - from 3,500,000 rubles, you want to get drive and emotions from aggressive driving. Volvo basically does not consider this indicator as important, and therefore continues to predominantly improve the safety and comfort of passengers, which it copes with at an unattainable level.

We hope our rating of the most reliable crossovers of 2017 will help you decide on the choice of a car that best meets your needs. Most importantly, do not forget that with a thorough analysis of the supply on the market, you will surely be able to find a car that will help you both in the city and in difficult terrain. Thank you for your attention and good luck on the road!

Coating quality Russian roads leaves much to be desired, because when buying a car, many Russians begin to pay more attention to cars with increased ground clearance and good suspension. Crossovers have already firmly occupied their niche in the automotive market, and every year their popularity is only growing. In fact, crossovers are a cross between SUVs and hatchbacks, thanks to which they are not only a good and comfortable vehicle for traveling over rough terrain, but also great for the city.

Automakers are trying to do everything to make their models popular among motorists. Photo: olifeauto.com

Crossovers, the cost of which is less than 1 million rubles, are considered inexpensive. However, there are a lot of them, only in the last 6 years more than a dozen models have appeared, therefore, in order to choose the most suitable model for you, it would first be nice to understand them and be sure to take a test drive before buying.

Mechanics or automatic

There is a misconception that buy good budget crossover not possible with automatic transmission. This is just a delusion, of course this version will cost more than with mechanical box, but the difference in price will not be as significant as it might seem. If you want a car with an automatic, then do not be afraid to make such a purchase.

The cheapest and most popular crossovers in Russia:

  • Lada Xray;
  • Hyundai Creta;
  • Lifan X50;
  • Renault Duster;
  • Nissan Terrano.

Domestic Lada XRay


This is a novelty of the Russian automotive industry, production and first sales began in 2016. Photo: mitrey.ru

The price of Lada Xrey in the initial configuration is just over half a million rubles. Although it is customary for us to scold the domestic manufacturer, nevertheless, a quite worthy model was obtained.

High enough ground clearance 195 mm will allow you to overcome any bumps in the road, and a good suspension will make you feel comfortable on the road. The owners of this car speak of it as a very good option, especially considering the low cost compared to its closest competitors.

In more expensive trim levels, there are light and rain sensors, a rear-view camera, full power accessories, a multimedia system with 6 speakers, climate control, parking sensors and other nice things.

Of course, the plastic inside leaves much to be desired, but again, consider the cost of the machine. In general, we can say that in terms of price / quality ratio this is an excellent option.

Hyundai Creta

This is a relative novelty from the South Korean manufacturer. You can buy a Hyundai Creta from 605 thousand rubles. In fact, this is a slightly modified ix25 model, it was not sold in Russia, although this was very lacking. The car has a good adaptation to Russian conditions. For greater safety, the body is made of high-strength steel, the basic version already has ESP and 2 front airbags. The car has good dynamics, attractive and even swift design.


Inside, everything is comfortable, disposes to long journeys, there are many small compartments and storage compartments. Photo: carsunit.ru

Why car owners like Hyundai Creta

  • version with all-wheel drive;
  • modern appearance;
  • economical engine;
  • driving comfort, good equipment.

Lifan X50

The low cost (from half a million rudders) and rather rich equipment, which many consumers love very much, could guarantee the manufacturer a high demand for his creation even at the beginning of sales.

Among the shortcomings, one can single out not very good sound insulation and a weak audio system, although these shortcomings can be easily corrected if desired. Again, the price / quality ratio corresponds. Also, according to the reviews of many owners, there may be problems finding spare parts.

The car looks interesting, made in accordance with the concept of the manufacturer. The interior of the Lifan X50 is bright and even a little daring, which is very to the taste of young and purposeful people, however, it was they who were counted on when creating the model. Consumers appreciate good equipment, comfort, numerous electronic systems.

Renault Duster

Renault Duster quickly became a bestseller in the Russian market. He took first place in terms of sales among crossovers in Russia, as well as in Europe (in European countries it is sold under the Dacia brand).

The car has high cross-country ability, good and economical engines, good technical characteristics and an affordable price. It should be noted its external indicators - the car looks attractive and at the same time discreet.

High excitement for the Duster began immediately after the start of sales. One of the main reasons was the rather low competition in the market at that time.

However, during operation, obvious disadvantages of the crossover appear.

  • too wide thresholds cause inconvenience during boarding / disembarking from the cabin. If you are not very careful, you can get your pants dirty very quickly, children get dirty especially often.
  • steering does not always work perfectly, especially during drifts.
  • Some controls are inconveniently located. One of the brightest examples is the button for controlling the power adjustment of the side mirrors located under the handbrake lever.

Nissan Terrano

A lot of people compare Nissan Terrano with Renault Duster. This comparison is largely due to the presence of manufacturing companies in the same concern. You can also trace many similarities in the appearance of these two crossovers, except that the Terrano looks even more brutal. In the cabin, everything is done quite soundly, everything is convenient and practical. As for fuel efficiency, even the automatic version will consume no more than 8 liters of gasoline on the highway.

The technical characteristics are also similar to the Duster, but the cost of the Nissan Terrano is higher, so you should think carefully before buying, and even better, take a test drive on these two crossovers.

You will learn about the features of the Nissan Terrano from this test drive:

New or used

The models discussed above are new. If you decide to make a choice in favor of used crossovers, then for 700 thousand rubles you can completely buy a Nissan Qashqai, which, in terms of its equipment and comfort, will be much better nissan Terrano.

It is also worth paying attention to Hyundai crossovers ix35, Opel Mokka, Ford Kuga.

Outcome

Every year the number of crossovers offered on the Russian market budget class is growing, Chinese automakers are especially actively introducing their new products. It cannot be said that buying a car that has cross-country ability and at the same time is a comfortable means of transportation around the city cheaper than one million rubles, one cannot hope for good quality. But you need to understand that crossovers are still not a cheap thing, when Japanese, Korean, Chinese and European manufacturers offer such budget-class models, then expect excellent specifications and increased comfort, which is in more expensive models, is not at all worth it.

There are many cars in the world. There are fewer crossovers, but their diversity and assortment is growing, albeit not day by day, but year by year. For almost every taste, color and wallet, there is now a crossover that meets many (though not all) parameters. The parameters for each, of course, are different: price, quality, manufacturer, country of production (also important), road and off-road characteristics, in the end, dynamics and a banal color. And if we won’t talk about the latter within the framework of this article, then we will only be happy to apply other “lines” to a wide variety of crossover models.

What do we usually mean by this phrase? Pink cars? No. With a variety of decorations on the body? No. However, not fully excluding both of these points. The main thing worth noting in this rating is rather a general collective image of a crossover without a formidable “bullish” look, sharp edges, huge prominent body parts like a “kenguryatnik” and so on. To put it simply - a kind of rounded body with smooth transitions.

Impressive characteristics of "female" crossovers also usually do not stand out - there is no need. Let's not argue that felt-tip pens are different in taste and color - and among female drivers there are also lovers of formidable forms and growling engines. However, below is a brief ranking of the most frequently sold SUVs in the Russian market, which are often chosen by female drivers.

Of course, this is not a complete list - it was not included in the top five Nissan Juke, Hyundai Creta, Honda CR-V and many others. We note, among other things, that some crossovers could be confidently called “female” in previous generations, they “matured” with age and lost the interest of the beautiful half of humanity. However, the final choice, as always, is yours.

What to choose for a domestic buyer with a limited budget? An army of used crossovers is a possible way out, but also a possible additional investment in repairs and annual maintenance. Yes and generally buy new car much more interesting than a long time to choose from a used one.

But what to choose if the budget for the purchase is limited, for example, to 1 million rubles? Whom to choose - proven by millions of Niva with a Patriot, interesting in terms of equipping the "Chinese" or rather modest "Europeans" with "Koreans"? The latest current sales ratings for new cheap crossovers are as follows:



Oddly enough, representatives of the Chinese auto industry were not included in the TOP5 in principle. The reasons for this are quite simple: low confidence of the domestic consumer in new and little-known brands, unstable position in the market, even seemingly well-known manufacturers.

Those who like to attach a ruler to the power parameter pay less attention to the price issue than others - this is more of a challenge to the public. However, it would be difficult to make a rating, if we take into account, in principle, all the offers on the market - with tuning from the studio of all stripes, “charged” models repeatedly, and so on. Because - only factory overclocking, only "native" tuning studio. And a minimum of repetitions - we will not take into account several modifications of one essentially model.



Of course, this list can be continued for a very long time: in the first 10 positions of the world power rating 8 are "Germans" - Mercedes and BMW. But the modest Porsche Cayenne Turbo S with its 550 horsepower, loaded Land Rover range rover Sport SVR with the same number of horses and many more.

How much does such beauty cost? Actual prices for new charged crossovers start from 6-7 million rubles for a product of the Bavarian car industry.

Oddly enough, but a lot Horse power will not necessarily lead to the finish line. Although most often these concepts are as close as possible. Nevertheless, aerodynamics play an important role in acceleration and in the race, and the rating of the fastest crossovers does not completely duplicate the previous rating of the most powerful representatives of the SUV family.

What is considered the fastest? Whether to take into account top speed crossover, or pay attention to the acceleration figures? Both parameters will have to be used in the ranking: strict global regulations oblige manufacturers to impose restrictions on electronics. Therefore, in the first place we will put the “maximum speed”, and with the general parameters we will take into account the acceleration speed to hundreds. We also decided to avoid repetitions of the model


As you can see, the rating of the fastest has little in common with the most powerful. True, we note that the Tesla electric crossover has not yet unlocked its potential in many respects, and having removed the electronic limiters, it would confidently rise up.



What is curious: the Bentley crossover is in last place on the list only because the premium British manufacturer has set a strict production quota for different countries. And most of this quota was purchased in Russia shortly after the official start of sales. And the crossover starts from 17 million rubles.

The issue of traffic safety is also at a more than high level in relation to crossovers: a higher center of gravity, a large (compared to sedans and other cars) weight, a potentially more complex design (all-wheel drive, etc.) must meet a high quality bar.

Compact budget crossovers:



Mid-size crossovers:

  1. Honda Pilot
  2. Nissan Murano

Premium crossovers:

  1. Audi Q5
  2. Acura MDX
  3. Lexus NX

The gold medal for all test items, by the way, is not always awarded automatically with the price of the car. For example, Mercedes GLE almost reached the "gold".

And what about those who want to proudly say “I have a crossover!”, But not pay for everything that is offered “from the elders”? When the car is unlikely to ever seriously go off the road, and main problem the owner became a parking issue. One solution is to purchase a compact (often subcompact) crossover with all its advantages and disadvantages. Depending on the price, equipment, manufacturer and equipment, these cars can be both a great companion for a family and a “car for an egoist”.



If desired, of course, you can include a modest “Frenchman” Peugeot 2008, a crowd of “Chinese” of all stripes and controversial cars of the Mini Cooper Countryman level with KIA Soul. Decide and choose in the end for you.

The last point is not the least important - the issue of refueling worried and worries all motorists. Modern technologies and modern cars offer many solutions, but history has already shown that "honest" automakers do not always show real numbers: some underestimate the levels of carbon dioxide emissions, others repent of incorrect fuel consumption data.

However, by far the most effective method of saving fuel (apart from the actual “put the car in the garage” and all-electric options) has become the numerous options for hybrid technologies. A car that part of the time does not spend gasoline at all, but is content with electricity from the battery pack, and the rest of the time it runs on fuel and recharges the battery, turned out to be a fairly optimal solution.



Why specify the type of fuel consumed? It’s just that the diesel options just barely made it to the top five: the same modest (but bright and charming Citroen C4 Cactus 1.6 E-HDI and the consumption of the same 3.4 liters of heavy fuel has a much more “urban” 92 hp. ).

Outcome

It is difficult to choose the best among in many respects equal. Choose worthy comparisons for such different cars— even more difficult. If you agree with the article above, you have your own opinion and your own rating - write a comment.

2017-2018, in particular crossovers. Only they. They are exceptional. We have on hand a sufficient amount of information that simply needs its coverage. We invite you literally “in hot pursuit” left by automakers and their offspring to find out what the global auto industry has already prepared for all its fans in order to present it in the near future in the form of a remarkable piece of automotive art.

Audi Q5 / Audi Ku 5

New cars 2017–2018 model year(crossovers) on our list will open the "populist" (in the good sense of the word) from Ingolstadt. The Germans, as insiders say, are determined to make their fans happy with the presentation of the next version of the "five" with the prefix Q in the title. Surely it will be restyling. But it's not bad: increased comfort and safety parameters are the main changes.

There is information that the Audi Q5 will go to all car dealerships for free sale in Russia around the second half of 2017. The price of the updated German crossover will be about 2.5 million rubles.

Nissan Qashqai / Nissan Qashqai

Among the novelties of crossovers 2017-2018 takes pride of place Nissan Qashqai. It will improve in every way. Perhaps its main change will be the implemented autopilot function. However, it will work in test mode, in a sense, with restrictions.

After the evaluation of the drivers, which they will give on the results of the operation of the vehicle, the Japanese automakers will make the final decision whether to develop this idea or focus on something more important. The exterior and interior of the updated version nissan car Qashqai will remain, except that both of these components, aimed at creating a proper impression of the car in a person’s head, will be slightly adjusted.

The price will remain the same: in Russia, a car can be purchased for 2 million rubles. Its appearance in the Russian Federation is expected in the first half of 2017.


Kia Sportage / Kia Sportage

The “Korean” was updated not so long ago (recall: in 2016, the fourth generation left the assembly line, and the QL version became its notable feature). Soon the popular Korean crossover will be updated again. Insiders obtained very important information, which practically states in plain text that in the period 2017-2018, Korean automakers will present a restyled version of the Sportage to the fans. It will mainly correct those comments that were received from drivers during the operation of the vehicle - left by the results of everyday use of the fourth generation.

A restyled version of the Sportage model will go on sale in Russia around the end of 2017 or already at the beginning of 2018. Price Korean crossover will be set at the level of 1.2 million rubles.


Nissan Pathfinder / Nissan Pathfinder

New cars 2017-2018 in Russia - as we have already agreed, crossovers - will definitely attract public attention to themselves, if only because the list will include "Pioneer". Before this "Korean" we talked about the "Japanese" with autopilot. And what will the “samurai”, in turn, give to fans? For example, he will be able to boast a complete change in a familiar appearance. The interior design is also subject to revision. Insiders just insist on it. And on espionage he was already seen, albeit wrapped in a camouflage net. It's all there, yes.

Start of sales of the updated Japanese crossover in Russia is scheduled for the first couple of months of 2017. The price is set at the level of up to 3 million rubles.


Hyundai Tucson / Hyundai Tucson

We will dilute the “dominance” (in the good sense of the word) of the “Japanese” that has been established in our list with another “Korean”. Crossovers 2017-2018 will clearly benefit from the fact that the much-demanded Tucson will be released with them in one year. Its third generation saw the light in 2015, and now Korean automakers are preparing a restyled version of this "handsome".

Well, following the suddenly established tradition, the next on our list will be marked "Japanese", who will follow the "Korean". The new crossovers of the 2018 model year suggest that the “populist” (of course, in the most approving sense of the word) RAV4 will wedge into their company.

Seeing how well the novelty was received, the Honda management decided that they should not hesitate, but give people one more joy in the form of restyling.

Her “check-in” will turn out for a potential buyer two million rubles of “commission”.
