Test Drive Suzuki IGNIS 2003 - 2008 SUV
My climber
The first in the history of Suzuki Crossover is ideal for those who do not like to park.Lowish business
Pave! Start !!! Where??? My dear
The Red 206th, with a characteristic humorous sound, pinched the rear bumper into the curb and helplessly froze. From the salon, a young fairy was spinning and was horrified by the act of his hands and legs. The crack of centimeters is ten plus jammed towing eye and crushed fog. Alle Alla, is this an insurance company? The case, is understandable, everyday, but the day could work out otherwise, be the road clearance of the fawn a little higher.
Absolutely not to pay attention to asphalt tosos, reinforced concrete icebergs and other free road applications to the modern megalopolis allow many cars: from Hammer-H2 to Citroen-C5. But those who do not know how to rob banks and does not know at least forty about honest ways of taking money from the population, the choice is small. Southwalks up to 20 thousand in the market only two kia-sports and Suzuki-Jimney.
And less than fifteen and alone at all. The last name for him, too, by the way, Suzuki, but the name is few people who are famous.
Era Crossovers
Of course, the easiest way to look at this supermini under the bottom and, without finding the desired cardan shafts, gearboxes and other attributes of the full drive, accuse us of incompetence. Like, where is the saznodnik about the front drive? But, firstly, the Ignis is and with the wheel formula 4x4, after a while such an option will hope to go to Russia. But the main thing even a mono-drive Suzuki remains a sacrifice at least half. Indeed, in the model range of a Japanese company, he is the first crossover that is a car that combines the best quality of the car and all-terrain vehicles.
Such bully carappow in the market is added every day. At the Salon in Geneva, pseudo-road Citroen-C3-XTR, Volkswagen-Polo Fan and Fiat Panda-SUV debuted. But these guys have not yet descended from licked podiums, they did not dip in the puddles of urban prospectuses. And the Ignis is already here. And immediately begins to convince in its own twist.
Start with the fact that for the class B machine, then you mean a direct competitor of the 206th, Fabia and the Corsa, this Suzuki has simply phenomenal geometric patency. High-grade clearance, short sinks and almost smooth bottom think, all this is useful only in a career or in the forest? Nothing similar to the assault of typical urban barriers will change your views. And it is not necessary to deal with parking issues. Even in the highest curb, Ignis rests on not a bumper, but tires. Not a car, but a real climb.
All four wheels
Racing suzuki is not necessarily motorcycles. Thesis This Japanese company is more than a dozen years proves in the fields of rally battles. This season, on the highways of the British championship, his new generation is debuting. The crew of the team Dealer Tim Suzuki Guy Wils and Phil Paf on the Canaar-yellow climbing start in all stages of championship. And there, you look, it will reach the world championship.
Adults Pluses, Children's Minuses
But geometry is only one side of the medal. The second no, not an algebra, of course suspension. Pretty shaking, definitely, especially when you go to the empty, but what is the energy-intensive! For two days of bullying to force the shock absorbers of the little Suzuki to work on the breakdown, only once we caught the recessed centimeters for ten minutes of the sewer hatch. And that say, there was four in the cabin, and the junk in the trunk closer to the overall load to the maximum permissible.
Comments If you are required, then only in terms of the capacity. I assure four inhabitants of the salon were not Japanese, rather, even on the contrary. And although with completely militant armchairs, the fastened parties on the sofa press their knees, this is nothing, according to the standards of supermini spaciousness of the Ignis Nice.
High, so-called bus landing implies better visibility
The sofa in size is not a record holder, but two adults will arrange quite comfortable here.
Spacious pockets on the sides of the clime-tick block will fit and for the phone, and for CDs
Just, but tastefully it is just about the Ignis salon. It is a pity that the steering wheel does not have adjustments
It is not impressive, however, the numbers, or rather, liters of the volume of the trunk: only 235/525, that is, it is hardly less than that of everyone in the classroom. But this is at first glance. The European standard VDA involves measuring the trunk to the level of windows, and the Ignis one of the highest in the class will easily take and increased obligations. But even more you will be surprised by the interior design. The concept, which in the dictionary of Suzuki until recently was absent completely. Of course, the dashboard in the style of Alpha Romeo on the crossover looks a little contrived. But if you do not score your head like nonsense, then the spectacular wells of the instruments and the bloody-red lights are impressive. In addition, all this sports boutathoria, especially having the right to exist when such a gaby lives under the hood!
With Literary S.
A little bold, I agree, a statement regarding the 1,3-liter engine. But, nevertheless, it is true. As with such a modest volume, the Japanese managed to remove 94 liters. with. The power of the mind is incomprehensible. Moreover, even in the lower range, thanks to the changing phases of the gas distribution, the engine is unsuitable, and thanks to a well-configured clutch of the clutch with the touch. And further and at all the song! Desperately famously spinning to the red zone, the baby is lucky not in volume well. And I did not blinked the eye, and the speedometer is already having red in the area of \u200b\u200b140 km / h.
Although, in truth, at intercity speeds, the Ignis ceases to be Painka. Suspension, so convincing in the city, gives the position. The car starts not to jump, not to sail on the waves, the steering wheel becomes unnecessary, but the main thing, the gusts of the wind and tormented to knock the Ignis from the course of the sailboy. Each one is all the same.
It is no secret that it is that Suzuki is one of the most complete collections of oscidence. Large boys are offered 7-seater XL7. There is a jacket to size less than Grand Vitara about five doors, there is a medium 3-door version. In this case, the Ignis whose off-road deposits have no analogues in their class, could well be called otherwise, say, Vitara-S or Vitara Pinin. In my opinion, very solid and, most importantly, quite deserved.
So far only mono
The most affordable Ignis in Russia is a 1.3-liter version with a mechanical gearbox in the configuration standard for $ 14 880. A lot for supermini, but there is everything you need air conditioning, 2 airbags, ABS with the EBD system and a break-assist, electric drive front windows and heated mirrors, central locking, immobilizer, fog lights, audio preparation, heated seats. More expensive luxury performance ($ 15,590) turns on light alloy discs, rear spoiler, religions and wheel arch expansion. The 1.5-liter Ignis is supplied exclusively with automatic transmission and costs from $ 16,680. All-wheel drive cars will appear in Russia not before autumn.
