Test Drive Nissan Juke since 2010 SUV
Nissan Juke VS MINI COUNTRYMAN
Little fashionable crossovers with a large stock of horsepower. The full implementation of the ladies dreams ... The other day I went to drink tea in the institution called a good republic and instead of listening to pleasant music, suddenly got at the lecture of the founder of this club, who explained to the girls how to live correctly.If you want to get married for someone, just imagine that it has already happened, in all the details. To confess, I thought such lecturers were transferred in the middle of the two thousandths. But no, live to this day. He made all the ladies write their innermost rehabili on the balloons and drove the balls into the sky into the courtyard.
It is believed that cars create designers and marketers separately or in collaboration. Allegedly, they discuss the future model for a long time and come to consensus. Or, on the contrary, one of them is asked with three boxes, and other chik-chik shrive the idea to the desired market condition. But this approach has long been outdated. Similar things today are indispensable, perhaps only in AvtoVAZ or in some CIS countries. In developed industrial societies and this, I clearly understood from a lecture in a good republic the car creates girls in their dreams. Sits the young lady at home and dreams: I would have a boyfriend on a big fast horse. And when the number of such dreamers reaches a critical figure, the German plant immediately spits the novelty, say, ML 63 AMG or VW Touareg W12.
Desire.
All what the driver of Nissan wants to throw the steering wheel and run away to drink coffee
Opportunities.
MINI pilot will ride until the evening, then comes as early as the next day
Bedroom with microphone
Similarly, Mini Countryman and Nissan Juke were born from female fantasies. Let's start with the first. It seems to be in the pedigree old English small car? But it doesn't care how to say that the party of the United Russia came out of the masses. Where the hypothesis would look like the hypothesis that MINI created Italian fashion designers to sell it as an accessory to one of their Hause Couture collections. And it was like this: Once, when the dream of a girl about a guy with a big horse was fulfilled and they began to live together, he gave her BMW X6. At first she rejoiced a generous gift, and then, when the euphoria dispersed and became obvious the inconvenience of this Mahina, began to repaint the future: I want another typewriter, too, with a full drive and fashionable, but smaller and prettier, and to park it was more convenient. And when the number of dreaming girls with donated x6 exceeded the statistical stand, Countryman appeared.
The history of the appearance of Nissan Juke is somewhat different. One student was tired of going to Daewoo Matiz, and she began to represent that she already had what she wants. This is a wonderful machine, in the winter it is not scary on it, and it can climb on the border, but it is small and fast, so that Yurko is through a traffic jam, at a reasonable price and with a small flow rate. The guy from a good republic said that thus fantasizing he received his club. He is right, it works. But in the automotive mechanism the other. World autoconcens have long mastered the microphones of the bedroom of young girls to act on ahead, and not chase at the outgoing train. That's how the girl who survived the craving for Daewoo, forced Nissan to make the release of Juke.
Before the border of fear
Any other explanations will not give anything and will only prevent understanding the essence of MINI Countryman and Nissan Juke. Well, imagine that I will start to describe them in a traditional way. Search for technical differences. I will find that Nissan is equipped with a gasoline engine, and MINI diesel. And sense? They have the same 184 and 190 horsepower, respectively. Acceleration is also 8.4 and 8.3 seconds to hundreds. Maximum speed 200 and 205 km / h. Even the number of Newton meters, which usually serves as a clear guideline in the search for differences between gasoline and diesel units, equal to 240 nm. If we want to somehow distinguish them, you need to go to the landfill. What we did.
Theatre.
All that is in mini is scenery, the practical meaning of which to attract maximum attention
Why is it? Designer tachometer for girls
Guess.
This is the course of the speedometer passerby accepted for the scales
Asphalt, orange cones, built in the line, and the desire to bring rubber to the piglery squeal, which had to work with the two test pilots 4x4 club. I started from the English village. Hard Countryman flew between cones like a bumblebee of a single extension. The clarity is perfect. Then we proceeded to the dough. Maximum speed. I was not even able to forgive, to what limit it can be enhanced, because it came to the border of his fear, for which it was no longer decided.
Then a confident gait, I come to the Japanese mad hamster and ... almost immediately fly off the track. I try again, also. I depart again. The steering wheel has to twice faster, but it does not always help. Speed \u200b\u200bis noticeable below. Everything that I wanted to make the driving Juke is to get out and put the cones two times wider. Then I did it, but I did not add pleasure from the ride. In the end, I just threw the juk in the middle of the site and went to rest. In Nissan, it was necessary to sit down to Mini, but not after.
Stolen.
Somewhere nearby helicopter left with a derailed panel ...
1 + 1.
Make love here will not be easy
Bardac. I have no idea about what the owner will carry here. Another mini, only small?
I thought it was the scales ...
We were tired, we sat near the cars and silently realized how good the leaving from the British islands. Then we switched to photography of salons. And after a while, passersogue came up to us, I looked at the interiors of cars and turned with a question: where is the mini speedometer? Here he is! I tell him. Here? asksrs. I thought it was scales ... Yes, it is. The Englishman conquers only flawless handling on the track. Otherwise, a continuous misunderstanding, which will have to have a long time and painfully get used. All buttons and devices are made so that no drops are similar to the buttons and appliances. In addition, comfort in Countryman is like a fashionable vinyl jacket with a hand-cut collar, cutting into the neck. There are lovers to look good to the detriment of convenience, but I'm not of them. Nissan, on the contrary, can be compared with a comfortable vest. It is much softer and more pleasant on the pits and tramways, and this somewhat reconciles with the fact that his appearance copied from the dog, whose ears tied a bustard. True, there are other versions, much more hurt. In any case, long look at this doctors do not recommend.
Not all at once.
On the front panel there are such functions, the meaning of which will reach you in about a week later.
Variations on the topic of devices. JUKE, remove the bike glasses
Sports in stock.
The default is Eco mode
Camera. Little but decent
Choose the winner of this test was very difficult. Ivan Evdokimov generally refused to express his opinion. I, though I understood that the victory was definitely for Nissan, I also decided to choose from the vote. There should be girls to solve, and they like Mini Countryman more, and no arguments in favor of JUKE them are not a decree. Although at the same time small Nissan on the streets are an order of magnitude more than large (relatively) mini. Is it all the case in those miserable 200 thousand rubles. difference in price?
Does not hold.
Flat sofa, clinging almost nothing
Full. In the trunk there will be canisters with gasoline. In sports mode, he eats 16 liters per hundred. His competitor 13.
CAREFULLY! Technical details
In Nissan Juke, the All Mode 4x4-i transmission is available only in the top version with 1.6 turbo engine and variator. Torque to rear wheels is personally supplied by closing frictional clutches. The control unit analyzes the information of a number of sensors and distributes the summit to improve the parameters of controllability or passability. In the turn, the larger point is put on an external loaded wheel, and on the off-road to the one that currently has the best grip with the support surface.
Mini Countryman is equipped with an front axle with McPherson racks, a multi-stage rear suspension and a steering system with an EPS electricuster that changes the degree of amplification depending on the speed of movement. To optimize active safety indicators, all models are standardly equipped with a dynamic control system with a DSC stability system, which includes an anti-lock brake system, an electronic EBD braking force distribution system, a braking control system in CBC turns, braking system and a braking system at a slope. Additionally, the DTC dynamic control system (standard for Mini Cooper S Countryman) and the electronic blocking of the front axle differential is available.
