Test Drive Chevrolet Lanos since 2005 Sedan
Tiloki Pavildo without lead
Such a sticker is located on the Lanos Lanos car Lanos of the Daewoo brand, with the Chevrolet emblem, which is collected in Ukraine from the Korean, Polish, Ukrainian and Russian components. We have this exotic vinaigrette for the price of Vazovskaya tens. Where is such a rich geography? And where did this lanos come from? After all, the model is clearly not the first freshness, but before we have not seen something.
The story of Lanos is really confusing. In Korea, he debuted in 1997, coming to change Nexia. In fact, this is notxia, only with another body.
Initially, Lanos was not supplied to Russia. However, in 2001, his assembly was almost established at the Doninvest factory. There was even a small batch of cars. But then something was not challenged, and Lanos had already shot in Korea began to collect on the Polish FSO plant and Ukrainian Zaza, where the Cossacks had done before.
Well, when the new owners of the Daewo from the world's largest automotive corporation General Motors decided on the supply of Lanos to Russia, the cross of Chevrolet appeared on his hood, and under the hood, Russian components in addition to Korean, Polish and Ukrainian.
What measure should you approach this car? In one row with modern models of small and golf class Lanos, naturally, it is impossible to install. Moreover, he is not obliged to be absolutely all better dozens and viburnum (and what do you want if sold at the price of domestic classmates?). The question must be put like this: Is it worth Lanos of his money and is it possible to buy it instead of the Vase products? Or maybe, against the closest competitors of foreigners, does he have anything?
How much is
Lanos is produced with three types of body: sedan, 3- and 5-door hatchback. But we are supplied, alas, only a sedan. Fortunately, at least a complete set, you can now choose until recently there was only one.
The basic version S, despite the tempting price of $ 8980, I would not recommend anyone. The point is not even that it is empty like a drum. In the end, such asceticity of someone will satisfy only it was cheaper. But there is no main power steering in the ESS. And without it, Lanos, as it turned out, is simply not managed.
I think that with the advent of richer equipment for the sale of the basic eski will come to no. Why buy a completely naked car if the amplifier and driver's airbag can be obtained in the second level SE configuration, which costs $ 9430? Agree that surcharge at $ 450 for two of these important conversation options does not deserve.
Sun visors are short. The mirror on the right appears only in SX
The upholstery of the doors of the top version SX (left) is much more pleasant than the standard
Nevertheless, the top-equipment SX is most attractive at the ratio of price and pleasure from the money spent. For $ 10 130, in addition to the amplifier and pillows, it offers air conditioning, front electric windows and a better interior trim. That is, remaining in the price range of viburnum and tens, SX contains almost everything that fundamentally distinguishes foreign car from domestic.
However, it is almost impossible to buy Lanos at the stated price today. The profit from it is so scrupted that in the conditions of the current shortage of cars, dealers refuse to sell it without installing additional equipment. You will have to spend at least for the Lanos package for $ 459, which includes the simplest signaling of the alligator, MP3-magnet variety and the central lock, which in the database is not even in the top version of SX.
But most likely you will not let you go with the world until you leave at least 800 dollars in the showroom. Of course, for this money, in addition to the Lanos Package, you will receive such useful things as Carter Protection, antenna electric drive (it is installed on the back wing And put forward it manually uncomfortable), rugs, etc. But in any case, it will be imposed services.

Outside and inside Still it felt that Lanos's design became the first independent development of DEU. If the old woman is a copy of the German cadet of the 1984 sample today looks like a noble classic, then her heir turned out to be surprisingly faceless and unappletent.
The case is not at all in biodide, which managed to get out even before the appearance of Lanos. Hyundai focus on last generation was the same soft-rounded, but still looks nice. But the disproportionate and stupid forms of Lanos do not cause positive emotions. Particular cheeks of the front wings and bumper are particularly depressing, hanging over wheels. And the feed with crying lanterns, concave lid of the trunk and the submarine of the license plate in the form of the mustache Taras Bulba ... To her, dorestayling fillets with horizontal lanterns was better.
In the assessment of the exterior of the car there is a concept of sexuality. It can be different, but one goal is haunted: the car begins to like at first sight. Alas, but in the appearance of Lanos, sexuality can detect only the recovery pervert.
Well, the fewer emotions, the easier it is to objectively assess the quality of body manufacturing after all, they weld and paint it on the catch. In principle, there is something to make face. For example, the rear lights are not perfectly joined with the wings and the lid of the trunk, and the upper part of the bumper is screwed ... self-drawing with shiny heads. But in general, everything is completely decent. The doors open and close gently (though, with the sound of tin cans), the side windows move with minimal effort, the gaps between body panels are small and, most importantly, fairly smooth. Not that from our cars: plus-minus tram stop.
Yes, and the quality of the color seems to be improved (in Zaporozhe promised to launch a new painting complex). In the first lanos, it is remembered, even the brush-hoax left scratches. And when you try to fill them, the napkin acquired the body color.
Penetration into the salon is associated with some inconveniences. When landing ahead, the sharp passenger risks moving his head on a massive ceiling handrail. And if he decides to accommodate the rear sofa, it will certainly be made about the falling squeezing and, already with a smoking, about the ledge in the back of the doorway, which seems specifically for this and is made. The sofa in width is full of double. When you try to accommodate the three, extreme passengers begin to sign strongly beveled side racks. Yes, and the angle of the back of the back is chosen unsuccessfully I want to pressent more vertically. By the stock of space in the legs and above Lanos's head is somewhat closer than Logan, but the spacious nexic. But unlike the basic Renault, there is a hint of head restraints. When you hit the back soft rollers at least scorch the blow.
The interior dreamed in its grayness is performed all in the same amorphous style of biodide. Moreover, in some cases, smooth lines look victory over functionality. For example, oval pockets in the front doors and the glove box are small, and a stupid deepening on the site of the passenger airbag is not suitable even as a shelf for small boosted.
The quality of the interior finish? Simple, but clean. Materials and constructive solutions here are clearly budget, but irritating poverty, as in Logan, is not felt. And the details are generally not bad. The main thing is that everything is normal opens, closes, there are no gaps into a finger width, nothing creaks and does not rattle on the go.
Behind the wheel
The first feeling of the steering wheel is installed awry. And indeed it is. You are trying for it symmetrically, but the left hand is stretched, and the right bent in the elbow. In addition, the Branca is not regulated, and the small buttons of the sound signal on its knitting needles, as from the beginning of the 90s.
The driver's seat cushion is located slightly higher than the expected. But more the specification of the landing is due to the fact that if it was adjusted on the legs of the hand overly bent. I moved around the hands before the pedals need to be stretching. Yes, and it is not necessary to move away to the driver with a growing 185 cm and more longitudinal adjustment is not enough. But the chair itself on the profile is a very decent gift, which has a minimum adjustment.
Another claim to ergonomics lever KP, as in Nexia, is unnecessary referred to. When switching on II and IV gear, it has to be very flexing a hand.
A completely modest glove box does not accommodates A4 paper
Retractable cup holders Single pleasant trifle in the cabin
Arrows on the upper fastenings of the front safety belts Fair. Height they are not regulated
Direct visibility is not bad in all directions. Is that the wipers are short-lived leave too much uncleaned area, the front of the body's front rack is overly massive, and, as in most sedans, there is no feed from the driver's seat. But the lack of information obtained through the mirrors is permanently. Internalone just inconvenient to use. With the right landing, it turns out to be almost at the temple, because of which it has to mow a lot of glance and reject the head back. But the side sort of and large-dimensional, but there is no feeling of complete picture in them.
The lid of the trunk and the gas tank hatcher unlock remotely, from the salon
Between the front chairs there is a tray with a hint of a cup holder
The angle of inclination of the back is adjustable stepwise
And at the driver's seat, the budget essence of Lanos is especially acute. For example, air duct deflectors are deprived of dampers, there is no front lighting flange on the ceiling, and the steering wheel switches are displayed on their metal skeleton. However, it depends on what to compare. Unlike Logan, here at least wipers work humanly. Included the washer automatically earned brushes. And brush the dirt from the glass can be a one-time touch to the lever. Reno has nothing to do it.
Inscriptions in Ukrainian. Already because of this, Lanos is called Zaporozhets
Manual windows work surprisingly easily and gently
But much more expensive materials and technical solutions are used in the top ten and viburnum. Sometimes unreasonably expensive for the car of such a value. For example, gas shock absorbers of the hood and trunk, soft torpedo, velor's upholstery and heating of the seats in versions of the suite, rotating lamp of the navigator illumination. And the electronic dashboard of the VDO company is a real masterpiece compared with the Lanos's wind turbine tidamp, with a mechanical mileage meter and a lack of tachometer, even in the top version of SX.
However, the principal difference between the Korean-Ukrainian and domestic cars is to execute. Let Lanos deliberately simple and cheap in every detail. However, everything is decently done in it, carefully fit and works fine. Believe me that after our machines, in which all attempts to shift are crossed by the terrible quality of performance, even such poverty, but with a sense of self-esteem is perceived as a great good.
But it seems to be intercepted. By car with a mileage of only 3500 km of turning relays at the time of the first triggering of the Zudit, as the fly on the web. And why? I open the cover of the mounting unit on all the stamp relay is made in Russia. They say they change their guarantees ...

Outside the trunk unlocks, unfortunately, only the key. However, it can be discovered remotely from the cabin. In terms of volume (322 liters), the Lark is significantly less than that of Nexia, Logan and dozens. Even smaller than Kalina. In addition, the opening of the trunk is not enough in height, and inside it is strongly narrowed by protruding wheeled arches. Two full-size suitcase from our props between them did not lie.

But in front of Nexia and Logan, Lanos's trunk has a very important advantage of folding (and even in parts!) The sofa back. Let it lie to the evening with the floor, but the skis or portable lawn mower can carry out.

Safety
The official crash tests according to the EuroNCAP methodology with displaced front and side blows Lanos did not pass. However, the result is hardly possible for modern standards. Still, the car was created ten years ago and, moreover, became the first independent development of the FIU.
From the visible security tools in the basic configuration there are only belts. The pillow is provided only for the driver, and then starting with the SE version. So the level of passive safety of the little Chevrolet question is open.
Children, like in our machines, can be transported in special arm chairs, fixed by regular belts, isofixes are not provided.
On the roads ... Walking with a close underground parking on the car without an amplifier of the steering wheel, I, like the last kettle, several times almost put on the wall of the garage and parked cars. The fact is that the muscular memory of the hands laid three turns of the steering wheel from the stop until they stop like all cars. But Lanos is without an amplifier, he makes 4.5 circles. Therefore, in the 90-degree turn, you never fall first, and then you do not have time to bore the ram (she herself does not return it for some reason). But how did they manage to make such a long steering wheel so hard? He has to be climbed as a bull.
But the term stability is excellent. On the car without an amplifier, probably ridewinking the beer drunk. On a straight steering, you can automatically move the car anyway, like a string. But laughter with laughter, and when correction of the drift or imitation of a sudden obstacle, the cold sweat is stuffed. It is not just inconvenient.
No, Lanos must only take with an amplifier. From the stop until the stop, such a steering wheel makes the usual three turnover. True, with small deviations from zero, it is even too sharp. Despite the presence of a clear reactive effort, it is not particularly relaxing at the speed direct. However, the car behaves very well in turns. The main thing when entering the arc disposable sharply sharp steering wheel with simultaneous gas discharge can provoke the stern. But in any case, Lanos with the amplifier goes much more comfortable and safer.
A semi-liter 8-valve motor of 86 forces is able to consume 92th gasoline. This is very important because the inexpensive Lanos will acquire the inhabitants of the depth. The main thing is how the sticker warns on the benzobacco hatch, gasoline must be unleaded, since the engine is equipped with a catalyst.
True, Motor Lanos does not have an active ride. It is smoothly and reliably lucky in the entire range of revolutions, but it is very measured. As with Nexia, the dynamics viscous, heavy and ends somewhere to 140 km / h. But even if the motor was more troubled, the taboo would put the box on the active drive. The clutch, let's say, works adequately, but the transmission switches very unclear. This is not a lever, but a mess in a saucepan shames.
Laman slows down at first glance, it is not enough only to the informativeness of the drive. But it is on dry asphalt. But in winter, it seems, it will not be so great. Because on a wet side (and this is about the same as the same thing on winter tires in the snow) The front wheels are broken into the UZ already with a slightly pressing on the pedal, and the rear do not even print. That is, the rear axle is clearly inappropriate. The situation cleared after inspecting the brake system. Instead of the usual brake force regulator, which can be configured, valves are built into the contours of the rear wheels, ineffectively limit pressure. Such a compromise solution is applied in cases where the brake system is initially developed under ABS (and the car should be produced only with it), but in order to save it, it is made.
And how are things going with driving comfort? In terms of smoothness, everything is in order. The suspension copes well with its duties, although it allows noticeable body rolls in turns and rocks on gentle waves. But with vibroacoustic comfort, not everything is smooth. First of all, the bottom of the bottom and the wheeled arches from the bottom obsessively rustle the tires and Gulko drums of pebbles.
In addition, there are constantly easy vibrations in various frequencies in the cabin, and somewhere to 100 km / h begins finely trembling the steering wheel. It seems that the Ukrainian tires of Rosava Trochi square (or just poorly balanced). By the way, claims to tires are reduced not only to comfort. They are also weak coupling properties. And in braking, and in turning it is felt that the car is capable of greater, but the rubber is already swimming.
And Lanos is very peculiar to the engine noise. Not to say that it is especially loud in inexpensive cars and worse. Like most of the 8-valve, rather, just unpleasant. But the funny thing is that Koreans seem to be launched inlet acoustics. When the throttle is open, the motor begins to moan, as Bitles in the gel song. If you smoothly play the pedal, it turns out very erotic sitting near the companion you can bring to ecstasy. But if you keep the gas pressed constantly, while you get to the cottage, it is already probably a brave ...
Of course, Lanos on the go is not ideal. But, again, with what to compare. The SX version is somewhat better than Nexia, and after any vazovskaya model and gives pleasure. To feel it, it is enough to take a car to a short test drive at the dealer.

... and without them
Saving dickens, love fishing or simply babble on nature Lanos can be recommended. The area of \u200b\u200bthe road lumen is 170 mm, as well as rather high thresholds and bumpers, as a congress from the asphalt, it feels at least not worse than the Vazovskaya tenth. Of the loved ones at the price of cars for riding on Ugabam, it is better adapted, perhaps, only a hiking with its huge lumen and short swells. Naturally, it is desirable to establish the power protection of the engine compartment.
The suspension on a broken road allows you to move quite confident. Sleeping begins either with full load, or when there is a speed. However, she knocks on the pits so that the car seems to have passed thousand 150.
Operation, service
The warranty on the European Lanos two years unlimited mileage. For the private owner is worse than the Japanese for three years or 100 000 km. But for someone who comes over a year a lot, the better. But the guarantee conditions prescribed without pitfalls, possible to renounce its execution.
Service and warranty service engaged 75 Chevrolet dealers in 54 Russian cities. And the prices for the work they have moderate to an average of $ 35 per labor times. However, the service will be more expensive Lanos Aveo and Lacetti even. If the parts for it are slightly cheaper (only slightly), the service need to come through the 10 000 and a half times more often than in other Chevrolet models. And the cost is not important, at what interval, they are held, is an average of $ 200250. It turns out that the Lanos cheap only at the time of purchase. And then it all as adults.

We decided:
It is clear that from the obsolete morally, inside the outside and the poor in Lanos, it is impossible to demand a lot. It is enough that this is a normal car that allows the owner to feel like a man. Already, it is why it is much better than any domestic machinery and, of course, stands for its money. Moreover, Lanos has trumps even against the main competitors-foreigners of Nexia and Logan.
