This is not so much a challenge in its classical sense, but rather an ordinary task, the purpose of which is to be able to collect all the parameters together. At the same time, I absolutely do not know if this is possible, it’s just my desire.
In connection with the beginning of the search for a new, spare, reliable machine, I had a problem finding a configuration that suits me. Usually, I always manage to find something that is the most profitable on the market. For example, I bought a powerful video card for nothing, which is only 4 times behind the performance of the top one, and somewhere 6-8 times in the total count. But here the task is really difficult because of the money.
I don’t want to get something too slow. And at the same time, the prices are too crazy to afford to buy anything. Then, I’m not going to buy a car from under someone’s ass, given that it was most likely an avid beer drinker, and the way he exploited the car.
Therefore, I do not consider used machines in principle.
Appearance is not very important to me, but I am not enthusiastic about the Korean style, so you need to use it very carefully. For those of you who don’t get it, striped headlights are fairly easy to create, so don’t overdo it.
A rear view camera is desirable, and, accordingly, an LCD monitor.
Side turn signals are required, but they cannot be installed on mirrors.
Otherwise, everything that fits under these restrictions is suitable:
Block of compromises:
Spacious interior
Length up to 4300 mm
Consumption of fuel no more than 7 liters on the track.
Acceleration no more than 15 seconds
Body type: preferably a hatchback or station wagon, crossover, city car, Suv coupe.
At least 4 chairs and 4 front doors
Preferably ABS, ESC, and TK
Preferably at least 2 airbags, frame amplifiers and power pipes for passive safety
Price: $5,000 - $15,000
The price of materials may be even lower, so the final price may be less than indicated.
Clearance 140 -190 mm
Tires: 165 - 215 mm
Tire profile: at least 60%
Suspension softness: slightly softer than Renault Duster
Release year: 2022
good review
Factory coating on glass
Light transmission: at least 75%
Reliability and Unpretentiousness
As an interior, it will be enough to install a steering wheel and a panel plus 4 chairs.
Comfort, in general, starts in the 10 to 15 range, depending on the price.
A rating will be compiled by type: participant - auto.
The desire for a compact car is justified by the fact that we do not have a garage, a cramped common yard with little space, and the area does not allow you to calmly do repairs - they walk over heads here, even if you are under the car; therefore reliability is required.
I’m not going to transport anything large, so a stripped-down city car will be enough, which will be nice to move around.
The price limit is set for the Russian market, compared to similar competitive purchasing power in the US. This also applies to other countries where similar prices are set, because the price of a new product is almost the same everywhere.
