Test Drive Hyundai Trajet since 2004 Minivan
Wagon-counseling
Championship volume for little moneyBus! Such an idea originated at the first look at the extensive black sidewalls Trajet and did not leave me during the entire test. From all the minivans collected by us, Hyundai is characterized by both hedgehog addiction, and really almost bus haggles. It is emphasized functional, without special architectural excesses, this car really provided passengers a maximum of space.
But, as it should be relying to a large vehicle, before others began to gear, squeeze the wheels and endure the face out in the turn. Especially since the feedback from the steering wheel, just say, not so hot. Catch the moment of demolition of the front wheels can be exclusively by sound. A little more effectively driving movement, a little easier to go with the gas, the birthplace. Remember about the dimensions, neatly steering. Not for sports he.
Yes, and the motor does not particularly benefit in the catch-up. How many not hurry the accelerator pedal, the firmly root engine is very gradually accelerating the heavy trajet, while competitors are already far ahead. And this, we note, without passengers. Somehow he will go with the seven bars and disks on board? Consumption in this mode is suitable, and a long time to go in a state of donkey unpleasant.
However, everything is once ends, and any route sooner or later leads to the city. And in the city become a good review, a lightweight steering wheel and, oddly enough, the height of the driver's landing. Because there is a highly looking far away. And even a small advantage in growth gives the driver Hyundai share of confidence and significance.
The city began to miss the inside of the outer mirrors, somehow cut off. But the brakes pleased with responsiveness and correct effort. That would be more powerful ...
Many times spoke already about the radio, which official sellers are equipped with Hyundai machines. It seems to be a high-quality device, but try adjusting the volume, and to configure the station on the go ... The fingers instantly sculpt from a slippery wheel, and there is no remote control and in risen. I would like to get the face of auto sound with more understandable and convenient governments.
About the number of space in this champion in size is not particularly accounted for. Of course, passengers of all three rows are placed comfortably, and the claustrophobia does not threaten them. In a word, a convenient and not too expensive mini-bus. What, strictly speaking, was visible at first sight.
Hyundai outside simple. Korean cars have the less stripping the better
American made by the selector box is the correct sign of the main minivan market. In the States such a kocherge will be glad. We will quickly get used to
The bright salon is attractive, but what will the flock of children turn him in just one day?
Rear the minivan looks quite a bus. But the big back-nai cap opens up a huge opening of luggage loading
The seats of the third row are not removed in the floor, but they can be removed by forming a large loading area

DESIGN
The first display of 1999 is a new version of 2004. Design under the guidance of Michael Kink (Michael Kink).
Outside, honestly two-discovered and it looks like a universal high capacity. It is not scary for operation, but now the age is emphasized today, the cargo-passenger function is expressed by half-litrous architecture. The face was formed by the past was illness of Korean design. The impression of the silhouette spoils a decisive fracture between the windshield and the hood was built as the architecture of minivans at the end of the twentieth century. But all utilitarianism. If it were not for the lanterns, visible through the colorless coating glass, the expressiveness of the style was not mentioned.
Inside, everything can be observed in the interior, its compositions and details. The instrument panel T-variable and is made in the traditions of the taste preferences of the new light: the Kocherga selector of the ACP, light bottom, dark top in the color-factor finish, 4-spoke steering wheel.
