Daewoo Matiz test drive since 2005 hatchback

Who is old?

The narrow subtile figure of Matiza is noticeably distinguished against the background of the current A accelerates. The same Kia Picanto is as much as 10 cm wider! It may seem that this is a little, but only until you find yourself behind the wheel. You have to sit pressing the elbows, the back of the seat is not adjusting the hand does not crawl between the upholstery of the door and the pillow. Of course, the three of you will not fit behind, and two will be crowded, only in the legs. The trunk spaces also does not pamper only 165 liters.
Salon finish Spartanskaya: a combination of dull design with cheap sonorous plastic. Before the eyes of the driver, a toy combination of devices with a mechanical odometer, and the passenger has a crooked glove compartment cover.
The geometry of landing, in general, is not bad, the seats adjustments are sufficient, and the pedal unit, though cramped, does not interfere with the control of the machine. There are no problems with visibility either, although the mirrors located too close are forced to twist their heads.
 
In the movement of the old Matiz and leisurely. The three -cylinder motor slowly counts the transmission, falling asleep already on the fourth. But for the city, the dynamics are only necessary to switch more often. Fortunately, the box does not resist this, and the lever moves easily and clearly. But you need to twist the steering wheel carefully: the suspension is soft, the zealous of the narrow, the center of the masses is high ... No, you won’t get drunk out of the blue, but the rolls are unpleasant, viscous in the turns. At the same time, the very steering of matisa is quite transparent and light.
It is convenient to sit: instead of lateral support, the door upholstery and shoulder of the fellow traveler
The body from the Italian studio Italdesign still looks fresh
Daewoo Matiz has become for many accessible passes to the society of foreign cars
