Niva Chevrolet began its procession in the long -lasting 2002. Such a seemingly unusual alliance of manufacturers gave us a car that received good grades of critics, as well as considerable recognition among drivers. And there is nothing to be surprised here, since it has outstanding running qualities, as well as a pleasant design and no less pleasant equipment.
However, life is changing. Something new always comes towards the old and the Chevrolet Niva in this regard is no exception. We will be able to evaluate the new car, we will be able to. Let’s figure out what the new SUV is.
To be honest, only the name and dimensions are left of our favorite car. Yes, and with dimensions not everything is so simple, because new 4316 millimeters came to replace the old 4056. The rest of the size tried to leave the former.
Many motorists were not quite delighted with the previous, rather harmless design. But it is worth looking at the new strict, aggressive lines and ask the question: is there at least something former in it in terms of appearance? A daring radiator grille, as well as a narrow, predatory cut of the headlights, speaks of obvious aggression. It should be noted that the body range of this car is clearly hinting at the fact that the crossed terrain is its element.
It is worth remembering that this is a concept and it can be modified several times before releasing it. But still critical changes are clearly not for him, since such a strict interior is ideal for such an aggressive appearance. Do not forget that when designing, no one has forgotten about comfort. The car is now quite quiet due to increased noise insulation, as well as conveniently, the merit of this consists in radically altered seats, there is no trace of the old ones. Manufacturers assure that the first version of the Niva cannot be compared in terms of comfort with the second, but if we really can’t find out if we are really.
So far we do not recognize the prices declared from the manufacturer, as well as possible variations, it does not make much sense to talk about it. However, we know that the basic version does not include protection of the headlights and engine, the factory body kit, as well as the presented winch.
The bottom line is that the new Chevrolet Niva plans to compete with such a budget crossover as Renault Duster. This means that our favorite will remain in the category of budgetary SUVs, which cannot but rejoice. No official prices have been announced, but it is known that the basic version will most likely fit into such a price as 500,000 rubles. It sounds quite tempting.
This car will be based on a gasoline four -cylinder engine, which was created by the cooperated work of the Sitroen and Peugeot concerns. He will have 136 horsepower and volume 1.8l., The torque will be 172 n/m. Plus, the car will be equipped with two different transmission options, a five -speed checkpoint and a possible version of the automatic. There is a version that the car will later also get a diesel engine, but there is no official evidence of this.
We have witnessed the domestic product with you (practically), which can boast of an impressive and at the same time economical power unit, daring and worthy appearance, and declared comfort. It sounds truly amazing. The main thing is that the manufacturer keeps the word and fall into the price category that he said. One way or another, the car turned out to be impressive. It remains to wait for the start of sales to evaluate the new quality.
