FAMILY VALUES
Created for lifeA relatively recently appeared class of compact minivans already painfully and impudently steps on the heels of donors, on whose platforms, nodes and units it, in fact, arose. Over the past few years, minivans have become much more popular in our country. As a rule, family people prefer them, who are especially warmed by the idea that all current and future children-who are always found a place in these large apartment apartments with transformable salons.

From the offered in our market about a dozen such cars, we chose two. Ford Focus C-Max Popular New End of the season, and Renault Megane Scenic II, a new generation of a well-known model created on the very great-great-grandson of this class.
How different they are, these two single -combatants! Unlike the asparagus and Bavarian sausages. Only two -liter engines and the amount of car for approximately equal cost. Each car from the emblem to the exhaust pipe is bright embodiment, if you like, a national approach to creating a car. It is all the more interesting to compare the Frenchman with the German and make a geopolitical choice.
OUTSIDE
Ford emblem familiar oval. Renault rhombus emblem. It seems that the contours of these minivans somehow gravitate to the forms of icons. The smooth, harmonious and correct lines of the Ford C-Max body force the imagination to instantly draw a flying road, look around its new faces and take into account the low aerodynamic coefficient of the model in this picture. The main thing for
the owner of this car is functionality. The appearance of the Renault Megane Scenic is completely different. With close sizes and the same proportions, the abundance of characteristic and bold solutions (closely related to the basis of the Renault Megane II) with a total mod and shape dictatorship and shape are striking here. This is a feature of French cars. It can be taken or not to be taken, but it is. Any owner of the minivan Renault will regularly catch the most diverse views of others from enthusiastic to perplexed.
Under the overhang of a memorable characteristic back of the minivan hides the exhaust pipe that was bred in the middle in the middle.
