Compact cars are very popular on russian marketDue to the fact that they are very economical and maneuverable. Of course, the leader in supply are Asian automotive companies, but also Europeans are not lagging behind them. Today we compare Nissan Almera and Renault Logan, which can already be safely called legendary models.
The debut version of Nissan Almer first sued the conveyor in 1995. Before the car, they put a very difficult task - to surround their famous predecessor Nissan Sunny and, running in advance, we note that he succeeded. The release of an almera of the first modification was divided into two stages: until 1998, and after 1998. Between them you can see significant differences, which mainly relate to the design of the exterior.
In 2000, the production of Almera 2 started, which quickly became one of the bestsellers of the market in his segment and sold very well, especially in the Russian market. Since 2006, the domestic market is delivered to the modification of the model in the B10 body, which is called almera classic. Since the summer of 2012, the Japanese is going to the Togliatti plant of the company Nissan, which greatly influenced the drop in the price of the CD-Kara.
The budget subcompacket Renault Logan was first lit in 2004, and immediately after the presentation began its assembly at the company's Romanian enterprises. After a year, using the B0 module, domestic specialists. Due to the fact that the developers were forced to invest in the cost of the cost of the model - 5,000 euros, they were forced to sacrifice something, and, for some reason, under "something" they implied the security system, which, to put it mildly, Logan did not impressive.
To increase demand, the French concern has significantly expanded the range of bodybuons. In addition to the sedan, you could now take a wagon, van and pickup. In 2008, the Frenchman has undergone modernization, as a result of which the safety level of the car increased slightly.
In 2012, Logan 2 was presented, but the Frenchman "French" began to be supplied only in two years. At about the same, the assembly of the model began to exercise on AvtoVAZ. Logan recognized the car of the year in 2013.
What's better - Nissan Almera. or Renault Logan.? Despite the fact that the "Japanese" career began much earlier, he achieved more success, all the same Logan, so we give him an advantage at this point.
Specifications
The most recent version of the almers is released in 2012, the updated Logan 2 is made from 2014, specifications These modifications today and opposing. So, both cars are built on front-wheel drive trolleys and are equipped with four-step automatic boxes.
However, such parity is no longer observed in dimensions. Almera body is 310 mm longer than Logan and above 5 mm. The magnitude of the wheelbase is more from the Japanese car - 2700 mm / 2634 mm. Similar situation and height road Suit - 160 mm / 155 mm. Given this difference in dimensions, it is not surprising that Logan is easier than its opponent by 65 kg - 1156 kg / 1221 kg. What do you think: who has a capacious luggage compartment? Most likely, the majority will give the answer: "Of course, an almera", but, no matter how strange it sounds, it did not sound, the trunk of 10 liters is more special for Logan - 510 l / 500 l. Both vehicles are equipped with 15-inch wheels.
Now they will deepen more in the topic of power units. 1.6-liter benzomotors are installed on both models. The difference between them lies only that the "Japanese" engine is not strongly picky on the quality of the fuel, and can safely work on the 92nd, which is not exactly telling about Logan. Each of the engines produces 102 horse powers. However, due to smaller sizes of Logan, and accordingly less body weight, more dynamic than its visa. Judge for yourself: to overclock the "Frenchman" from scratch until hundreds, it is necessary to spend 11.7 s, and Almera - 12.7 p. Difference for a whole second! In addition, . Its consumption on average is 8.3 liters, which is 0.2 liters less than that of the opponent.
Appearance
Visually models are very similar, but you can still notice some differences in the design of the exterior. So, externally, the Logan is made in very dynamic and with the volume style, and its Japanese competitor can offer a solid and representative exterior, with notes of traditionalism and conservatism.
The front of the Logan is equipped with a very overall convex windy window and a smooth falling hood. A similar arrangement of elements and a Japanese car. On the "nose" can be seen a branded radiator grille, reminiscent of the form of a bird, instead of the beak with the company's logo, and huge conceptual headlights. Almera can constitute it a rectangular folding lattice and quite interesting front lights, in unique design. The lower part of the bumper of both models looks very powerful, and is equipped with similar fog. The main differences between the air intakes: Logan is a wide element designed by chrome, and an almer has a trapezoidal shape.
From the side of cars is also strongly similar and from this angle you can make sure that the body of Almera is really much longer than the opponent. Both models have a dome-haired roof and stylish wheel arches. From the point of view of aerodynamicity, the more optimal form of the body at the "Frenchman".
Rear cars are quite usually for the class they represent. And if not different from the style of the design of optics, they could be confused. By the way, they are equipped with very powerful and reliable bumpers.
What to choose? Due to the fact that the exterior of Logan is modern and technologically, it is the Frenchman that we are awarding victory in this aspect.
Salon
Comparing the interior of the car, you can immediately select an explicit favorite - of course this is Renault Logan. It is impossible to say that the interior of the almera is much worse, it just looks like it is very simple, and to some extent even tasteless. But the Logan salon is decorated in a very progressive and innovative style, and boasts a high level layout and the presence of bold design solutions.
In decoration dashboards Both models can detect common features, but still the Console "Frenchman" looks more readable and informative. The steering wheel is also more technological in Logan.
In terms of capacity, Nissan Almera looks more attractive. From reviews real owners It was possible to find out that the rear passengers of the Japanese car feel like "kings" and they have where to turn around. Unfortunately, it is impossible to say about Logan. However, the quality of finishing materials is better yet at the "Frenchman".
Price
The average cost in the Russian market is 690 thousand rubles. Nissan Almera will cost about 100 thousand rubles cheaper. However, according to many specialists, it is exactly the case when it is best to overpay, and get more quality car. In addition, Renault Logan is richer with a list of basic equipment.
If you carefully examine the "bourgeois" and foreign car channels, you can make sure that the car "Nissan Almer Classic", well known in Russia, nor in Europe, nor in Asia model "Nissan Almera Classic."Simply" does not exist "... but there is a very similar Samsung SM3.
On the Russian market, the Nissan Almera Classic car produced by the South Korean plant of the Renault Nissan Alliance, appeared in the middle of spring 2006. Sedan Nissan Almer Classic is designed to gradually replace basic complete set Nissan Almer "Comfort."
Despite the fact that Nissan Almera Classic is positioned as budget auto (In general, it is such), his appearance is quite not even "not budget", which immediately distinguishes him from many competitors. Porn long nose nissan Almer ClassicHis noble color ... The purity of which neither moldings nor doors handles nor ... bumpers (;)). The rotation indicators of the original shape and the elegant fracture of the trunk cover ... Even somehow an old familiar "Almer" is guessed.
But if you are objective - this is not at all Nissan, and "not Almer". This car produces a plant in Busan, and produces this factory car under the Samsung brand and this model is called short - SM3 (it is this car for sale South Korea under the name Samsung SM3). Just marketers rightly suggested that the Samsung car would not be appreciated in Russia and decided to sell it as Nissan Almera Classic.
This situation is not at all "know-how". For example, all the famous Logan is also not at all "not Renault" - in all of Europe he is known as "cottages". So popular, but no longer a young Almer was made in the same way more attractive without any special costs.
In general, the buyer is satisfied, and the manufacturer is good: the price of Nissan Almera Classic (which is sold only in the Russian market) in 2011 begins on ~ 460 thousand rubles. True, besides the "plus" (in the form of presentable appearance and South Korean origin), the most affordable price Nissan. Almera Classic There is a substantial "minus" - it does not boast of neither (mandatory for "foreign cars") air conditioning or a second airbag.
Now a little test drive of this "mass car" ... and the mass car should, first of all, do not amaze, and ride and carry people. Well, Nissan Almera Classic drives normally and without any complaints, but about the "people carry" already problems. The fact is that on the example of Almera Classic, it is possible to understand how many Eastern Asians from Russians from the middle strip differ on average. The driver above 180 cm here wants more than it is possible to lower the seat, raise the steering wheel, reject the headrest ... and even better to transfer to the right front armchair - because At any other place will be closer. In general, Nissan Almera Classic, according to today's standards, probably the most close salon, latest generations modern cars C-class is much more spacious.
When moving in the city stream, Nissan Almera Classic is not bad and not outstanding ... Only it is necessary to get used to its "monumental" hood. But in the parking lot of Almer, the classic pleases its small radius of rotation and a slight steering wheel (from the stop until the stop slightly less than 3 revolutions).
On the highway Nissan Almera Classic also feels "like at home" - even "automatic" with ease gains 120 ~ 130 km / h and not against acceleration further! Only a harsh suspension can stop from further experiments at speed - it diligently transmits the shot of the wheels on the irregularities of the road on the body.
In the turns of Nissan Almera Classic, it is confident and predictable, brakes (in version with ABS) work perfectly.
Well, except good dynamics and praise maneuverability, the future owners of this budget car will appreciate the fact that this sedan may well eat 92th gasoline.

Price Nissan Almera Classic In 2011, the Russian market begins with 461 thousand rubles for the PE complete set and comes to 586 thousand rubles for the "Top" SE with "Automat".
Nissan Almera - Line of Japanese passenger carswhich was released in 1995. The first generation was carried out until 2000, also received a restyling in 1998. The second generation was born in 2000 and was on sale until 2006. In parallel with this, Nissan began to promote an almera on foreign markets, providing him with a new name. This affected Russia - the Samsung SM3 car appeared in our market in 2006, has undergone some changes regarding the existing version in Japan. Marketers realized that the Samsung car could not find a wide demand, so the Nissan icon began to hang on it, giving the model name Almer Classic.
As for the "ordinary" almera, its current version is now also directly related to Russia - AvtoVAZ is issued at the Togliatti factory. Its production began in 2012, and the characteristics of the new generation were significantly improved both compared with the direct predecessor and the classic.
Description Nissan Almera
Restyling 2000 will be brought to a ruler several innovations, which were considered progressive at that time: the range of complete sets was added, and the body received new headlights and bumper. The "ordinary" almera could be equipped with an automatic transmission and an engine with a volume of up to 1.8 liters.
Generation Almer 2006 included an anti-lock system, ESP, had a hardented, safer body frame and could be equipped with a 116 horsepower engine. In our time, Almera 2 is often found to secondary market.
Updated in our time, the generation of "new" almers of the year of release is produced in Russia. It is based on nissan car BlueBird Sylphy, which is one of numerous brand representatives. The most new almera, which is produced since 2015 and is a restyling version, got similar to the TEANA body, while based on the original platform. Almer is produced in three grades - "Velkov", "Comfort" and "Tekna". The second version is more equipped and among the functional has:
- Driver and passenger airbags;
- Anti-lock system;
- Alloy wheels;
- Electric drive fiberglass;
- Seat heating;
- Air conditioning;
- Fog lights.
The new almera spectrum of engines is equipped (1.6 liter and 102 horsepower capacity) and a gearbox to choose from - 5 MCPP or 4 automatic transmission. After issuing a new almers, the manufacturers tried to please Russian motorists. By calculations, he had to especially like the loyal fans of the line.
Description Nissan Almer Classic
The model entered the Russian market in 2006. Vehicle modifications, as close as possible to the classic version (and also released as Samsung) began to get into different countries Starting from 2003 - when the line and came out. Nissan Almer Classic was designed to move russian roads In the harsh climate conditions. Dealer centers They sold this car only in our country - he did not even flow into Europe.
The sale of a classic has become a sip of fresh air for Russian lovers of Nissan Almera. This happened not so much because of the long lack of new products, how much due to the inconsistency of our road conditions. Despite the name, the classic is pretty modern even by the current standards, the view that the surrounding reality fits. At the same time, the classic can be purchased that repels some drivers. For others, it will be an excellent opportunity to save and get a car, the production of which is completed.
Comparison
Despite similar orientation - the Russian market - Almer and Almera Classic have quite a few differences, which are largely due to the interval in the production periods and the manufacturers. A motorist who is going to purchase one of these machines, it is necessary to compare the models in more detail. Immediately you can say only one thing - neither "ordinary" almera nor the classic does not exceed each other, as they are insensitive cars.
Package
Nissan Almera 2015 has excellent equipment even in the initial version called "Welcome". The package includes:
- Tissue upholstery of the cabin;
- Fog lights;
- Fifteen step steel discs;
- Front airbags - driver and passenger;
- Electronic braking distributor;
- Immobilizer;
- Electric lifts of stalk;
- Power steering;
- Audio system;
- Heating rear window.
Most dear grade Also adds:
- Built-in computer with color display;
- Navigation system;
- Air conditioning;
- Heated seats.
Nissan Almera 2015 has an excellent equipment for his money both in the minimum and in maximum configuration. At the same time, drivers may expect from an expensive version more powerful engine - Manufacturers report that such an opportunity may appear later.
Nissan Almera Classic, like a more modern relative, has pretty good equipment. Of course, it retreats the 2015 version of 2015, but the difference in time of production is due. The minimum equipment offers:
- Central locking lock;
- Immobilizer;
- Driver airbag;
- Power steering;
- Height steering wheel adjustment.
In more expensive versions, air conditioning, seats with heating function, electric drive mirrors, anti-locking system and a second front airbag. The question is whether the buyer is ready for more money or considers the version of the unprofitable. Anyway, Nissan Almera Classic has only one engine (a volume of 1.6 liters and a capacity of 107 horsepower), as well as that combines it with the 2015 model.
Prices
Nissan Almera in the minimum configuration will cost approximately 400,000 rubles. The car has an excellent value for the standards of a new price ratio and all major qualities - it is an excellent budget car. The most advanced equipment costs about 490000 rubles - the increase is not so significant.
Nissan Almer Classic is available only in a used state. For some drivers, this fact turns out to be decisive - they believe that the used model does not fit them. For the rest, this is an excellent way to save on the car, the quality and equipment of which is close to the modern version. The model in excellent condition and the highest configuration with a mileage of less than 100 thousand kilometers can be purchased for 280,000 rubles. Of course, the price and condition depend on the previous owner.
Specifications
Options Nissan Almera 2015:
- Length - 4656 mm;
- Height - 1522 mm;
- Width - 1695 mm;
- Clearance - 160 mm;
- The volume of the trunk is 500 liters.
Parameters Version Classic:
- Length - 4510 mm;
- Height - 1440 mm;
- Width - 1710 mm;
- Clearance - 165 mm;
- The volume of the trunk is 460 liters.
Comparing the physical parameters of two cars, it can be noted that the new one has a little more presentable parameters, as well as a more practical trunk. At the same time, the classic has better clearance, and its dimensions provide greater stability. The negative point of the small height of the body is the close salon.
Appearance
The body and salon of Almera 2015 were developed by the Association of Designers of Nissan. It is somewhat different from corporate and has aggressive headlights and dynamic lines on a slightly tilted back body. "New" almera, which is quite nice for the budget model.
Nissan Almera Classic, like "Normal", is positioned as an economy class car, but also has an interesting design. Unlike the daring almers of 2015 release, the classic received more rounded outlines - this applies not only to the body, but also headlights, grilles of the radiator and stalk. He has no unusual feature, but it is impossible to call it.
Interior
Nissan Almera 2015 has a classic five-seater design. The car was created in a prosperous time for the company, so engineers did not praise either on ergonomics or on the quality of materials and equipment, but just as much as it allows budget class. Thus, in the back, three adult passengers are calm, and the whole machine provides a worthy level of comfort - higher than many "classmates" and profitable for their money.
Nissan Almer Classic, unlike a competitor domestic marketIt has more modest data in terms of interior. First, it was created in difficult times for the company, which led to obvious flaws and budget undermining. The mediocre level of comfort caused a lot of complaints from drivers who made the choice in favor of the classic of the second generation. Secondly, the car has national characteristics that leak from the Japanese set. In the cabin, it will probably be closely a car enthusiast in more than 180 centimeters, he will want not only to raise the steering wheel and lower the seat, but also to move them along the car, which is, unfortunately, no. Nissan Almer Classic, according to multiple reviews, is one of the most inconvenient cars with value for money.
Challenges
Nissan Almera 2015 has the following dynamic characteristics:
- The gasoline engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and a capacity of 102 horsepower, which has 4 cylinders;
- The torque of the motor is 145 nm, and its maximum turnover is 3750 per minute;
- Maximum speed - 175 km / h, up to one hundred in 12.7 seconds;
- Fuel consumption up to 12 liters per 100 km path.
Nissan Almer Classic is almost no different from the more new version:
- The gasoline engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and a capacity of 107 horsepower, which has 4 cylinders;
- The torque of the motor is 146 nm, and its maximum turnover is 3600 per minute;
- The choice between the five-speed mechanical and four-step automatic boxes gears;
- The maximum speed is 177 km / h, until hundreds of 13.9 seconds;
- Fuel consumption up to 10.4 liters per 100 km path.
Comparing the indicators of two cars, we can conclude: version 2015 is more dynamic, but, while the classic's motor is not as effective, but provides good fuel savings.
Outcome
If the driver wants to acquire a maximum comfortable car for its class, then he should choose Almera 2015. It combines a high level of safety, ergonomic salon and dynamic qualities that are a little more than the classic. The last one will suit those who want to save, but still get a high-quality and fairly powerful car - for those who are ready to sacrifice comfort.
Many people wonder what now you can buy on the Russian car market, in the amount not exceeding 400,000 rubles. At the same time, so that the car is not complete trash, relatively reliable, and inexpensively managed to maintain. The amount is not large, and if the products of the Russian and Chinese car industry do not cause confidence for one reason or another, the gaze will have to pay for the secondary market. Today I propose to consider and compare two popular representatives of the "C" segment: Nissan Almera Classic or Ford Focus. 2.
As for the appearance of both cars, at the moment, both models can be said to be outdated, but in truth, even by being new they did not differ in particular sophistication. Here is the choice of what is called taste and color ...
In the Russian market, Nissan Almera Classic was represented only in the body of a sedan, when Ford Focus could be chosen with bodies - five-door and three-door hatchback, sedan and wagon.
In terms of salon and finishing materials, both machines have solid plastic in the cabin and tissue upholstery of the seats. With regards to design and ergonomics, the Ford Focus salon will be more preferable because salon Nissan. Almera Classic Frankly speaking to cling to not for what. Optional equipment Ford Focus is also richer, although it does not shy abundance for today's standards.
According to the dimensions, the volume of salons and trunk cars are almost identical, it is here to measure what is called for itself.
Engines Nissan Almer Classic
As for the varieties of motors, only one option was installed on Nissan gasoline motor - The volume of 1.6 to 107 "forces", aggregated by either a 5-speed "mechanical" or a 4-cussed machine gun. At the same time, the focus was available at five petrol aggregates, volume from 1.4 to 2 liters.
The Nissan QG16DE engine was developed by Aichi Machine Industry in 1999 and lasted on the conveyor to 2013. This is a simple row "four" with a cast-iron unit and a chain drive of the timing with a system of changing the phase distribution on the inlet shaft, eGR system To reduce the toxicity of the exhaust and the intake manifold with a variable inlet geometry. In terms of its times, it was a fairly progressive motor, which is also not demanding of maintenance. Since the cylinder block is cast-iron, it can always be crowded, which is good for the car with mileage, and their runs are usually rather big. The chain is usually stretched by the end of its resource, which is 150,000 km for it.
This motor has no hydrocomathers, so adjusting the valve mechanism gap after buying a machine with any mileage is simply required. Often runs are recycled, and few people produce such works from the first or second owners. As sores, you can recall another short-lived catalyst and constantly clogging throttle valve. Otherwise, this is a simple reliable Japanese motor whose resource on average is 300,000 km.
In a manual transmission, problems usually do not happen, simple reliable "mechanics". The four-stage automatic transmission Jatco (Nissan) JF404E is also not particularly whimsical. The only thing that is worth accepting as the prescribed is a mandatory oil change time in 90,000 km along with the filter, and then the box can easily serve 200,000 km.
Ford focus engines 2
Ford Focus Gamma Motors is much wider. The easiest engine for Ford Focus 2 in Russia - volume of 1.4 liters of Duratec 16V SIGMA (Zetec-SE) with a capacity of 80 hp The motor is pretty trouble-free, but there are flaws and it has. In addition to the catastrophic lack of power, they have occasionally clinically in one of the two provisions of the thermostat, and then the motor is either constantly overheated or vice versa can not warm up to operating temperature. Since there are no hydrocompensators, the adjustment of the valves is required once in 100 thousand km of mileage. Type of drive timing belt. Replacing it should be implemented every 160 thousand km.
Both DURATEC TI VCT 1.6 engines per 100 forces and 115 hp Have a similar architecture with a 1.4 liter engine. The testimony for maintenance is absolutely the same. All these three engines according to the manufacturer's statements have a resource of 250 thousand km, but in fact they go to at least 100 thousand km more ....
Engine Ford 1.8 L (DURATEC-HE / MZR L8) with a capacity of 125 forces. Unlike the DURATEC "of less, there is already a timing chain drive, which significantly improves reliability. But at the same time, the 1,8-liter motor has congenital disease Floating revolutions idling. This motor is actually one of the most problematic in the Duratec lineup and it is better to turn your eyes to the next engine.
Ford 2.0 L DUTEC HE / MZR LF with a capacity of 145 forces. According to the design, the same is 1.8 liters, but with larger diameter cylinders (87.5 mm versus 83 mm). Compared with 1.8 liters, the two-liter fellow looks preferable from all sides: it is more elastic, more powerful, it works quieter, and consumption is the same, plus deprived of the lack of floating revolutions, both on version 1.8. All engines have a challenge of the debris distribution Vala. The thermostat is often breaking up to 100 thousand km, and the engine does not heat or vice versa overheats. Still need to control the condition candlestones, in case of detection there, oil needs to tighten valve cover Or replace the gasket. If after 3000 rpm machine refuses to go and lights up Check EngineSo it approached the replacement of the intake manifold damper valve. In addition, once every 150-160 thousand km need to regulate valve gaps. Despite all these disadvantages, the motor without problems admires the stated 250 thousand km, and continues to go further, about 350 thousand km, after which everything rests on the resource of the aluminum block.
Mechanical gearboxes do not have some pronounced problems, actually as an automatic transmission. All maintainable, just in service, and at the same time it costs.
Pendant Nissan Almer Classic and Ford Focus 2
The Nissan Almera Classic suspension is a classic layout for cars of this clear: McPherson front, half-dependent torsion beam. The suspension swallows our reality in the form of a hole on the roadbed and in mind, its expanses of the design rarely fails to be premature, but in the event of a breakdown, repaired for a penny, and walks as much as much as the main thing is not to save and buy original spare parts.
Ford Focus MK2 also has in front of McPherson, but behind all the equipment stands already multi-dimensional suspension, and being rooted by a European car, it has a more accurate chassis, and as a result - more acute handling.
Summing out: Nissan Almera Classic or Ford Focus 2
You can summarize this entry by the fact that each machine has its advantages and its cons. For all obvious advantages of Ford Focus in view of its greater equipment and technological, Nissan can beat a simple thing: lower price. Due to the fact that Nissan Almera Classic initially being a new car cost cheaper, now such a car 2012 on automatic transmission in the maximum configuration is usually about 400,000 rubles. Ford Focus 2 for this money, in comparable grades, will be over the years, and whatever it is good car He was not who knows - how we went to her all this time.
Well, such a not a unavailable moment like an assembly. Ford was gathered in Vsevolozhsk, and Nissan in Korea, there he was called
09.12.2016
Nissan Almera Classic is a budget car that has nothing to do with incredibly popular, at that time, "". On the Korean market, the car was sold under the name "Samsung SM3" and, almost immediately after the premiere, became a sales leader, but in the CIS, the car with the title "Refrigerator", was sold very badly. Therefore, the marketers had to seek the marketers to seek this problem, but, it was worth only to rename Samsung in Nissan - and sales went. In the secondary market, the number of suggestions for sales of used options is very large, so, to leave ignore this car, we did not have right.
A bit of history:
Nissan Almer Classic was developed in 2002 by Renault-Samsung and Nissan concerns based on the Nissan Pulsar car. Initially, the car was called "SM3" and, only after the debut of the model in the European market, it was renamed the name "Almer" with the classic prefix for buyers. Initially, the car was going to Korea at the Samsung plant, and since 2006, production was established in Russia. Before the car appeared in the CIS markets, a slight restyling was held. Nissan Almer Classic is built on the "N16 Pulsar" platform. In 2008, work was carried out to eliminate the most common flaws, after which problems in warranty period, it became several times less. In 2013, the manufacturer stopped producing this model, in the same year sales of a new generation started.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Nissan Almer Classic with mileage
The paintwork and metal of the car body of satisfactory quality, due to this, corrosion on the car meets extremely rarely. But, plastic moldings and door handles after 3-4 years of operation begin to quietly climb. Not famous for its quality and front optics, as a result, protective plastic quickly flies, also, on many copies after 4-5 years, reflector headlights starts. If, when moving roven road A knock on the right side is heard, most likely the hut lubricant is required.
Engines
Nissan Almer Classic was completed with only one gasoline engine volume 1.6 (107 hp). The force aggregate Equipped with the timing chain drive, a metal chain resource of 200-250 thousand km, but, after 100,000 km, the mileage can stretch at any time. The first sign of the need to replace the chain will serve as a diesel rocobe on idling and metal base when starting the engine. The disadvantages can also be attributed to the top nozzle of the radiator. If the smell of gasoline appeared in the cabin - it is necessary to replace the fuel ramp clamp. On many copies, the radiator fan does not work without turning off, the cause of the ailment is in the loss of contact due to the rooting of the wire connection of the PRES sensor.
The fuel pump is reliable enough, its resource is 150-200 thousand km, but, if you often ride with an almost empty tank, it may be premature to fail. The first signal of the need for replacement will be difficult to launch the engine. If you have noticed that the car began to disappear and the turnover is falling, most likely it is necessary to replace fuel filter. Closer to 15,000,000 km will need to replace the resonator. Check the state of the resonator is very simple, you need to raise the car on the lift and, if water drips with "banks", then it will have to change it soon. Otherwise this motor reliable and unpretentious in operation.
Transmission
On Nissan Almera Classic installed two types of gearboxes - five-speed mechanics and a four-stage automatic machine. This car, that rare case when the machine is reliable mechanics. The biggest disadvantage mechanical transmission It is considered a small resource of the primary shaft bearing (it starts to buzz on the mileage of 130-150 thousand km), and if it is not replaced in time, expensive repair of the box is inevitable. Due to the fact that there is no synchronizer in the box rear transmission, on many copies, turn it on the first time. Clutch, with careful operation, on average, carries out 100-130 thousand km, but, he also has its weaknesses - a return spring on the pedals (it is often breaking) and the main clutch cylinder (loses hermetic). Automatic transmission, as properly operation And due service (oil replacement every 60,000 km), will serve at least 200,000 km, but, as a rule, already 120-150 thousand km, the box begins to push.
Chassis Nissan Almer Classic
Nissan Almer Classic is equipped with standard, for budget cars, suspension - in front of independent, such as MacPherson, rear - semi-dependent beam. The suspension has good energy intensity and copes well with the irregularities of our roads, but it does not fit for a dynamic ride. IN regular equipment No stabilizer transverse stabilityBut, thanks to the fact that the attachments under it, still, are provided, many owners establish the stabilizer on their own. To compensate for the lack of stabilizer manufacturer sets reinforced suspension elements. Operating experience has shown that Nissan Almer's chassis is fairly worn, as for a budget car.
Most criticism from the owners received shock absorbers, after 300,000 miles, cracks appear on them, which leads to a decrease in the line of the shock absorbers. If you monitor the state of the anthers, the shock absorbers will serve to 100,000 km. Silent blocks, ball supports and hub bearingsOn average, 70-90 thousand km of mileage are kept. Steering tips go 90-100 thousand km, traction - 100-120 thousand km. Steering ReikaSurprisingly, it turned out to be very hardy, and up to 150-200 thousand km, extremely rarely presents surprises. Weak place rear suspension Springs are considered, and, if you constantly carry the rear of three adult passengers, they will have to replace even 100,000 km of run. The most common problem brake system The leakage of fluid from the main cylinder is considered. It happens because of the insufficient length of the hose that connects the tank with brake fluid and cylinder. To eliminate the problem, it is recommended to replace the hose to a longer one.
Salon
As in many budget cars, you will not find exquisite design and high-quality finishing materials. Also, you should not count on the abundance of electrical equipment (in Nissan Almera, there is no classic on-board computer). Despite the small amount of electronics, the problems with the electrician happens quite often. From the most common can be allocated: the failure of the ventilation unit and the heating of windshield cleaners.
Outcome:
Nissan Almer Classic, despite its small cost, enough reliable car. Before buying this car, it is important to know that the cost of service and spare parts are no less than on the thoroughbred Japanese.
