Hyundai Solaris Saoralis West Drive since 2010 sedan
The meeting continues!
Solaris budget for money car, characterized by non -budget qualities Under St. Petersburg on a new one, with a needle of the Hende Motor Manufaccoming Rus (KhMR) factory, on which cleanliness and absolute production order reign, the first serial Sedan Hyundai Solaris reign from the assembly conveyor. For many reasons, as it seems after the first acquaintance with the novelty, the car will be able to apply for the honorary title of Russian-Korean folk sedan over time.
To begin with, he acquired the name after the competition in which 27,000 of our fellow citizens participated. Secondly, the St. Petersburg plant operating in the full production cycle mode (from stamping panels, coloring to assembly), the first such enterprise among foreign car factories built in Russia. It is surrounded by a garland of seven Korean factories suppliers of components. Already today, Solaris production is localized by 45% (!) Bumpers, seats, gas tanks, front panels, pendants, pedals, pedals, conditioners, mufflers, interior decoration elements, stamped details made in the Russian territory are delivered to the conveyor. The largest Korean car manufacturer Hyundai, together with eleven Korean suppliers, intends to create 5,300 jobs and support local car components. That is, the company came to Russia seriously and for a long time and is ready to make a significant contribution to the development of domestic auto -building.

Further. Solaris model, designed specifically for Russia, taking into account our climatic and road conditions. So, as a standard equipment, the rear window heater, a 4-liter windshield washer washer, a 60 a/h battery, front and rear mudguards, a clearance of 160 mm, a suspension adapted to our roads, as options, a system of thorough of the rest zone of glass) , anterior seats heaters, heating the external rear-view mirrors, a constant daylight function, headlight lamps with a resource increased up to 1,500 hours, heat-protective tinting of glasses, a system for turning on stop-signals during emergency braking.
And, of course, the price of this budget for money car, which is distinguished by the non -budgetary quality of manufacture, comfort and other consumer virtues, should make it the same favorite of the public as Getz (by the way, as I20, from next year will not be sold in Russia).
So, the prices for the model in five modifications will vary from 379,000 to 604,000 rubles. In addition, five more packages of additional equipment are offered (his attention! You can buy it and scattering) worth from 15,000 to 30,000 rubles, which are not offered by other manufacturers of state employees. You do not need to pay extra for the metallic and mother of pearl with nine colors of coloring. And without even going into details, we can say that Solaris clearly comes out of a number of state employees who are familiar to us in terms of manufacturing and consumer properties, and the price scale of modifications and additional equipment is well thought out and democratic.
Slaris exterior, executed in the proprietary concept of flowing lines, reflecting a harmonious combination of things
in nature, elegant, dynamic, unobtrusive and elegant. Remocrated details wide stamping on the body and doors stretched from fog to the rear lamps, a massive, slightly aggressive hexagonal radiator grille, eastern head of the eyes of the headlights and fog lights hidden in L-shaped large niches.
A short test drive at the factory test landfill left a very good impression. The motor (1.6 l) burns even on the bottom, acceleration is even and confident. Automatic transmission does not very slow down compared to the manual transmission. The model is excellent. Disconnecting ESC does not really change sled qualities in corners. When passing testing coatings in the cabin, nothing rattled, did not touch or crunched. The model has excellent sound insulation. The front places are convenient, spacious for tall people, although they will be crowded behind. The decoration of the salon is ergonomic, pleasant in all respects, including the sizes of levers and control buttons and decoration materials.
In short, Solaris turned out to be a pleasant surprise for all articles. A worthy heir to such a successful model as Getz. Future owners seemed to feel it intuitively: just two weeks after the start of receiving orders on Solaris, more than 5,000 applications were submitted.
