Today we test new Korean crossover - Hyundai Creta.. On the success of Hyundai Protein on the domestic market, judging by the way, the Russians bought the budget version of the Solaris sedan. But, in fact, everything turned out to be much better for the Korean concern and buyers, and much worse for Hyundai direct competitors.
New coat - typical car, crossed on the seat of which there is no excitement of the first purchase of a new car. There are no delights about the presentable species or modern "filling". But on the subconscious, it feels that already hundreds of thousands of motorists firmly solid for themselves: "I take it!".
What do we know about the new Hyundai Cret?
First time, journalists claimed that Hyundai Cretage was created on the basis of Hyundai Solaris. But it is not. If you start searching for related models with New Hyundai, then the Elantra model comes to mind, the body of which was made by 53% of alloys of special strength.
Considerable similarity of CRETA has with its popular tucson counterfeit - in this situation it is meant the rear body part, as well as parts of the suspension and transmission. To emphasize the difference between the new Creta and Solaris, the engineers pay attention to the fact that at the Solaris of the back, the shock absorbers are mounted at an angle of 45 °, and they were installed strictly vertically in the curtain, which makes it possible to increase the energy intensity.
New Cretage Hyundai is equipped with a 123 hp engine, which has some differences in the structural plan from the engine Solaris, which also has a power of 123 hp. The difference, for example, lies in the phase inspector, which is installed exclusively in solaris only on the inlet, whereas on the curtain, it is provided on the inlet / release.
Configuring the motor, the manufacturer did a bet on dynamism and fuel consumption - to make the car economical, engineers reduced the level of torque. Despite such measures, the effective this measure cannot be called - the new Hyundai Cretage weighs 250 kg more solaris, up to 100 km / h accelerates for 2 seconds longer and consumes fuel to 1 l more.
To adapt new car To the domestic market, Krett's motors adapted to the Fuel AI-92. This work is not the only one that will delight Russian motorists. Among the huge list, you can also highlight the competent steering setting, which gave a car excellent handling.
Dynamics and flow
Conducting we could not fully explore the question of the speakers, in view of the fact that we had less powerful front-wheel drivers and more powerful all-wheel drives with automatic transmission. In the dynamism there are no problems with both: when overtaking the machine behaves "obedient" and does not have to "remember all the saints." In maneuverability on the roads with intensive movement, the coat showed that it is capable of maneuvering and carefully rebuild. The 6-speed automatic transmission switches smoothly and quickly: during quick ride there are no problems with the lack of sport mode and does not occur to switch the speeds manually on the mechanics.
Testing Hyundai Creta on mountain ranges, we spent only 7.5 liters per 100 km of way, not in a hurry. In the mode of intensive driving at high speed, the flow rate may increase to 11 liters per 100 km.
Aerodynamics and noity
To buy Hyundai Cretage, it means that you forget that on good roads, with a quick ride, the car will rock the oncoming air flow - the specialists could not reveal the moment of "sible" from the Krett on any velocity threshold. As for noise, they also should not be afraid - gaining speed, the noise level rises, but only the hum is heard, with the complete absence of a whistle. Additional noise At high speed (if appeared) occurs when tires with asphalt. IN this case It all depends on the quality of the road surface and not from the aerodynamic quality of the car.
Energy intensity suspension
Buy Hyundai Creta means choose a car with a rigid suspension. This feature It becomes noticeable almost immediately, driving seams on asphalt. Riding them at high speed is not very comfortable. It is attractive that on protracted turns and with sharp maneuvers now do not need to drop gas - the car is not wilted and will not jump aside.
Steering
It was pleasantly surprised by an electric steering amplifier, which enters almost every set of Krett (a classic hydraulic is installed on the "budget" version) - in combination, weightless steering wheel + hard suspension, it is unlikely to be able to find a similar car. Such an add-on causes new questions - why was it to add an option that will only increase the price of the car? On the example of Krett, you can make sure that Koreans do not store on technical improvements.
According to many journalists, the steering wheel in the car does not have enough informativeness, but this option is unlikely to worry the ordinary buyer, who needs a good, high-quality car.
Off-road crossover - car behavior
If you are simple and concisely, it is not recommended to drive on the off-road to Hyundai Print. According to such parameters as the angle of the congress and entry, the level of the lumen over the road (according to official data - 190 mm, in fact - about 180 mm), in the course of both suspension - the car is seriously inferior to traditional Duster and very newly new "brutal" on the market - Renault Kaptur. At the new Korean crossover, you can ride over the field or overcome a plot with loosen soil, rubble or sand. The only condition is the surface must be relatively smooth. A slippery or loose coating even on a small descent or lift can become a real trap for the driver.
But there is a way out of this position. It is simply necessary to disable the function of the trackschny control and with stops, slippers and other flocks, you can make it easy to move on snow-covered waste and forgotten country roads that are famous for dirt and puddles.
A little about the ergonomics of the cabin
It is naively to believe that in the car Hyundai Kret, the price of which is lower than 1 million rubles, will have the design of the Lux class. That is why you should not expect wooden inserts from mahogany and crocodile skin on the front panel. Plastic here everywhere. It will be much even if the buyer will put a tick on the "Leather Salon" option. In the "leather" version of the skin will be covered with armrests on the front panels, steering wheel and all chairs. Plastic panel will be left in place. But despite the "low cost of" the designs in Krett, the Koreans tried to fame - attractive textures and a sense of Asian style, the language will not turn the "budget" and "cheap".
Grade Hyundai Protection provides the following devices:
- The buttons on the steering wheel will be able to enjoy the owners of all coat, but only those who will additionally pay 50 thousand rubles will be able to manage the car functionality through the phone. per package of additional options;
- Regardless of the configuration, all side glass equipped with electric windows;
- The functional panel will also get to those who will pay extra 50 thousand rubles. This panel is characterized by a rich functional, attractive appearance and high-quality graphics.
The multimedia system looks relatively smaller than it could seem on the images represented - there is no desire to configure something in it and poke into her with your fingers. The screen is too small for the car sensor. As for the rear view camera, it will be installed only if the buyer decides to buy Hyundai Creta with an additional package of options (additionally pay 50 thousand rubles).
If the electronic clock is on dashboard You annoy almost everyone, the Koreans managed to be impossible - this device managed to enter so well that they do not cause negative emotions. Perhaps it's all about design and size.
Prices for Hyundai Cretage are due to budgetary - the low cost of materials and the fillings made a crossover affordable. Take into account exterior appearance The car is associated with the front panel and climate control unit, then the "tidy" and the steering wheel on their background will look cheap and unattractive.
Despite this drawback, Krett car owners will only benefit from this - the functional large buttons do not have to search. They can be pressed and at the same time look at the road without being distracted by extraneous actions.
Salon capacity
Relatively small dimensions of the car did not affect the capacity. The rear sofa is located at a convenient angle, sit on it comfortably. If at Hyundai Creta to go on a trip by the company from 4 people, there will be no rear crown at the back. The lumen between the edge of the sofa and the front chair is small, which is fraught with a constant friction of a stand on the back of the chair, but it is not scary.
In front, too, everything is in order - the coat is equipped with comfortable chairs, which grows the landing in such a way that even after a long trip, the body does not get tired and does not swell. It is pleasant to delight additional space with a reserve for elbows and heads. In addition - a great overview. Even the specialist will be difficult to find fault in the car in the car.
Luggage compartment
If we talk about the baggage compartment, then it can be described by one simple wording - everything will fit. High sex - distinctive trait Crossover, under which hid the reserve. In the trunk there are small grooves on the sides, which is ideal for the placement of oversized cargo.
In general, studying the crash, it seems that engineers paid special attention to ergonomics, designing it for urban "harsh" conditions. In this plan, it becomes clear why the manufacturer made a bid on a rigid suspension, the compactness of the luggage compartment, an indifferent attitude towards off-road, etc. This aspect reminds the question of optional: when the question is in sales, Koreans are looking for key moments, worrying cars for consumer requests and create new, attractive car. Judging by Solaris, the Koreans seem to create a new "folk car that will be interesting to many domestic motorists.
The coat trunk capacity is 402, which is 73 l less than Duster and 15 l more than Kaptur.
Basic and additional "beams" in hyundai equipment Creta, available to ordinary users:
- The minimum cost of the car equipped with air conditioning is 859 thousand rubles;
- With climate control system, the car will cost 959.9 thousand rubles;
- The list of optional accessories has two 12 in the outlet, USB connector, AUX port;
- The car complete with automatic transmission, front-wheel drive, with an engine in 123 hp, will cost the buyer in 909.9 thousand rubles.
The optional part of Hyundai Cretage in the form of "Luca" causes a huge number of questions. There is no "cruise control" function in the car, even in the most expensive configuration of the type of Comfort, the cost of which reaches 1.2 million rubles. In response to accusations of greed, Koreans respond that the modern consumer market draws attention to current options and allows manufacturers to refuse not entirely necessary additions - this reduces the price of the car and make it really popular.
For example, survey experts showed that families with children are most important to have heated all seats (front and rear), rather than the presence of cruise control. In addition to the seats, the steering wheel and the rear chamber is heated in Hyundai Kurt. In this situation, it can be concluded that the manufacturer does not "clamp" money, but really chose the optimal functionality for the car.
According to Koreans, modern successful series of cars must be restyled not once every 5 years, and annually, according to them, already in the near future, Hyundai Cretage, options, salon and other indicators and elements may change.
It turns out that the "flaws" identified now is only a temporary phenomenon. Soon, manufacturers plan (apparently) fill the gaps to continue the successful release of the lengths of the series. It remains to wait in the next 1-3 years of pleasant news.
Despite this factor, the option of Creta still does not cause admiration for the "experienced" car owners:
- There is no climate control;
- No xenon;
- The rain sensor is not installed;
- There is no header with a large monitor;
- No navigation devices.
Apparently, these options will appear not soon, which seriously grieves the many modern fans of the Korean car industry.
To install the heated of the rear seats, you will have to order an option, worth 50 thousand rubles. It includes designated heating. If you want to buy a completely "stuffed" car, you will have to post a dealer of 1.274 million rubles.
What to buy - Tuxon or Kretu?
In order not to compose a new Hyundai Hercta competition, Korean representatives have ceased to supply access to the Russian Federation and "budget" models of Tuxonon with an engine at 132 hp As a result, such manipulations led to the fact that the difference between the curios and Tuxon was significantly increased, from 70 thousand rubles to 250 thousand rubles.
What is interesting, Tuxon, unlike the Krett, does not have such a saturated "filling" - there is no rear view camera and no parking sensors. According to these indicators, Tukson loses Cretake.
But, if we talk about the full "minced meat" of Tuxonon, the manufacturer has installed a cruise control function, rain sensors and many other useful options. At the same time, Tuxon in full configuration is only 20 thousand rubles more. But, in comparison with the top-complete set of Kret, the difference increases significantly - by 300 thousand rubles.
What's better? New coat oriX 35 Used Type
If we talk about a used and new car, the conclusion is obvious here - it's easier to acquire a new car, which is also larger in terms of dimensions. If talking pro price policies, on the market of cars, you can easily find a used IX35, which does not exceed 50 thousand km and many options that are not available (so far) on the kret. Here and xenon, and cruise control, on-board computer with 7 "display.
From the Russian Frost to suffer also do not have to - in the updated versions of the IX35, heating the steering wheel and the rear seat. It should be noted that before buying a new car IX35, it is necessary to take into account all the shortcomings of this machine.
Unlike his "competitor", the new car has an attractive and presentable view.
Competition and whether to buy a new kret?
The price of the new Hyundai Creta highlights it against the background of direct competitors, but still. The main competitors in the domestic market are different format crossovers from Japan and France. Duster, Terrano, Captures, etc. Cret is attractive in that having something like the same complete set and excellent appearance, wins noticeably in value. But, according to many motorist journalists, it will be more interesting to watch the competitors of indirect type, which the krett compete on the functionality. Manufacturers do not exclude such an option that the new car will become an anti-crisis version of the car for those who dreamed of a crossover, but could not afford it for a number of reasons. Perhaps we will ever talk about the new Krett as about the usual crossover of Cascai, who arrived in the domestic market.
In general, the car will become excellent innovation in the domestic market and will interest many potential buyers with its characteristics, optional and other qualities. If you want to purchase modern crossoverBut do not know which one - why not buy a new Hyundai Creta?
Quick transition to sections
The new compact crossover Hyundai Creta can be called new only conditional. In fact, his release began in 2014, first in China, there he is known under the name of the IX25, and then in India, where he received his current name. Now the smallest representative came to Russia.
Interesting detail. The appearance of models manufactured in different markets is almost the same. Probably because the exterior of the carriage is well balanced from the point of view of design and suits everyone. There is no on-road brutality of the SUV, but also there is no "the girl". Hyundai Greta Dimensions - Typical Class Class Compact Crossover. In particular, the length is 4.27 meters.
Although the car is just a compact crossover, nevertheless outside the roads he feels quite confident. Fortunately there are systems that help the driver. For example, assisting assistant with years from the years. In addition, Hyundai Greta Greta is an impressive 19 cm.
Even before the official presentation of a new car on russian market Any sort of myths began to appear around the crossover. One of them is: the new model is based on a rather weak, from a technical point of view,. Representatives of Hyundai in turn persist insistently: inside is Elantra, and improved. Really, rear suspension - Multi-type, and therefore the driver can be comfortable to steer with one hand, communicate with passengers and not too closely follow the road, even if it is quite broken.
A few words about the suitability of the new Parketnik to life outside the parquet. Overtowered chassis It is not bad with trouble in the form of a shallow beacon, gravel coating and relatively smooth primer. But when the bugs, cracks and small holes are becoming more, the suspension begins to be nervous.
As soon as high-frequency irregularities appear, immediately becomes heard as they are transmitted to the salon and on the body. But the brakes do not lose its productivity, even on a very difficult area. It should be noted and another pleasant technical feature New crossover. In any, even in the simplest configuration, it is equipped with disk rear brakes. Of course, this car is not intended for regular ride on a broken dirty road, but for some time he will be able to withstand them.

Hyundai Greta test on asphalt
It seems that Creta is trying to please all and immediately. This is a good desire that can only be welcomed. His positive effect is felt in how the car looks like it is practical and even in how the driver's space is organized. It is clearly divided into zones: there is a multimedia zone, there is a climate zone. There is a zone of large digital clocks. Instruments are excellent, they are simple, but well readable. No vulgar blue backlight, usually found in korean cars, there is no.
According to the onboard computer readings, fuel consumption during the highway movement was 10.8 liters. According to the documents, exactly so much the car must spend in urban mode. Thus, the difference between the claimed and actual fuel consumption is 2.5 liters. However, the cause of recalculation can be not only a car, and also the driver, more precisely, his driving manner.
Specifications and specificity of the coat in Russia
The level of comfort, which relies on the driver, can be described as follows. There is an armrest, but only one is automatic from the windows - the one is that the driver. On its button and written "Auto". There is an electric camera, the incinless start of the engine, invincible access to the salon, heated the front seats, both driving and passenger. Moreover, there is heating the rear sofa and even heated steering wheel. This is the result of the preparation of the car to the Russian conditions.
750.000 km We drove the Hyundai test engineers in Russia, including the Polar, in order to understand what the Russian buyer needs. As a result, we have a fully heated windshield, heated steering and all seats, more capacious battery and plastic fuel tank Instead of steel. The settings and methods for installing shock absorbers were also changed, and the steering amplifier received a new algorithm with a more pronounced zero.
Motor aggregates
According to the results of the running tests, the engines were adapted for 92th gasoline and are capable of run at temperatures up to -30 ° C. Motors are extremely simple and understandable. There are 1.6 and 2.0 liter engines. Power, respectively, 123 hp or 149.6 hp The test was the second motor. With transmissions no downtime. No variators or 4-speed automata. It must be assumed that the marketers and Hyundai engineers would put under the hood and a 4-speed automatic, so that the price of Creta would be even lower, but they simply do not have it. Therefore, it is proposed either a six-speed mechanic, or a six-speed automatic box Transmissions. Hyundai Greta received for test drive, the overview of which is described herein, was a second option.
Mono or four-wheel drive? The test drive was a car with a full drive, which the Cathe is similar to the one who meets from the older models of the Korean line, such as Tusan. Therefore, the four-wheel drive here is quite worthy. True, instead of the full drive system, the novelty received their problems. In particular, such as a shortage of dynamics when it seems to be sufficient power.
On the one hand, Creta has one and a half hundred horse power And the new 6-speed automatic. On the other hand, when the driver is trying to accelerate "up to a hundred", the car is noisily and diligently gains speed, but it makes it for 11.3 seconds. For a car that weighs a little more than a ton, it is not the most beautiful dynamics. This indicator will improve if you select mechanical box gear, but slightly.
Advantages and test drive on off-road
As it often happens, the disadvantage is balanced by dignity. In this case, the sluggish dynamics is partly compensated by a good taxi. Engineers from Hyundai took not only the suspension and multimedia from Elantra, but also a steering wheel that is really cool. It looks expensive, with tides, leather and stitching. Office has been displayed on-board computerMultimedia and telephone control. Speakerphone Print also has. It is impossible to say that "zero" here is expressed very clearly, but the fact that the load increases with increasing speed is very nice. And all because there is an electric powerlier. In the starting configurations or in mono-drive versions, the buyer receives a hydraulicer, and in more expensive all-wheel drive, with a 2-liter motor - the electric power steering wheel.
As a result, the crossover behaves on the road is understandable. In the corners allows you to withstand the planned trajectory without yourself and even feel some kind feedback From the front axle. Therefore, driving a car easily and comfortable.
However, if you do not seek comfort, but there is a small krett's features, it is worth off the asphalt and move closer to the wild to the wild, which can be opposed to 190 mm clearance, not the worst geometry and the ability to force the clutch. During the test drive, which was held on the stony terrain, the Cret showed itself well.
Conclusions for those who intend to buy Hyundai Kret
The Hyundai Creta crossover was pretty pretty, well-completed, with a decent interior and clear taxi. At the same time, it definitely lacks the speakers, the energy consumption of the suspension on a bad road and cruise control. The most important thing is that you need to remember, trying to evaluate Hyundai Creta - this budgetary machine. Its price is 749.900 rubles for the basic configuration. And 1.159.900 rubles - for the top. It is cheaper than the mid-complied Ford focus and much cheaper the starting configuration of Skoda Yeti. There is something to think about. Undoubtedly, the combination of the characteristics of the Cret is capable of please. It seems that Hyundai managed to make a car, which in Russia will be able to repeat the success of Solaris.

Crash test Hyundai Creta
What is better: Renault Captures or Hyundai Greta?
Experts are confident in the fact that the recent crossover Hyundai Protete is a little late, because the earlier debut could bring the company much more profit. But, as you know, it is better late than ever, and these words are ideal for this situation. The presentation of the coat caused a huge excitement - events of this scale has long been not in the Russian market. So what is this car actually? If you think this is a purely marketing product, then you are very mistaken - with the right approach from the car you can carve several good sparks. Okay, we will take away away from the metaphor, and imagine you test drive Hendai Greta.
With an indictment
Recently, the test drive Hyundai Greta (Hyundai Creta), who had to put everything in its place, and respond to all the controversial issues. For the test, a flat Altai terrain was chosen, not far from the Katun River. Against the background of these landscapes, the car looks very lively and interesting. If you carefully look at, then you can notice familiar features. And this is not strange, because we are facing European, although Korean origin. With a more careful examination of the exterior, you can find a lot of general moments with Mercedes GLK and Skoda Fabia.
Of course, we do not get to argue that our comparisons are the only correct, as each motorist can find another "twin". If we talk about the peculiarities of the appearance of Korean, then immediately note the lack of familiar smooth transitions, but at the same time the main features are viewed. model Row. Also, I would like to highlight the LED optics similar in the form, enlarged wheeled arches and high-tech plastic thresholds. The latter are perfectly combined with stylish door lining.
Without reckoning
Already familiar to test drive, Hyundai Protein was used maximum equipment of a car - comfort. Besides, there are two more configurations. Basic - start, can not be called otherwise, as "empty", since it lacks some of the necessary elements. The average - asset, looks more attractive, but still, to the maximum is still very far away. Judge for yourself: Comfort includes air conditioning and heated steering, as well as other interesting equipment. Most likely, it is this modification that will be the most requested in our market. Therefore, our today's test drive Hyundai Creta must interest you. Note that the minimum cost of the car is 800 thousand rubles.
Claudize revelations
We are not sure that you like the basic design of the cabin, but the fact that the manufacturers offered in the configuration Comfort looks quite good. In the interior, you can see the continuation of the external stylistic concept: chopped dashboard lines, a stylish trump, protecting the multimedia block, as well as protecting the dashboard. In this hegemony relief, powerful vertical deflectors and high-tech climatic block are viewed.
It is worth noting that the developers decided not to overstat the console with buttons and switches, minimizing their number. Those elements that were still used are so ergonomically that they are absolutely not rushing into the eyes and do not distract.
Given the fact that the width of the car is 1,387 mm, it may seem that the body of Hyundai is crated. But the test drive "Korean" showed that it was not so. The fact is that the developers reduced the thickness of the doors and thereby saved a lot of space. No complaints and to the height of the body. Moreover, the armchairs are equipped with convenient position electric regulators.
There are claims only to head restraints that do not seem comfortable enough. If you come to terms with this, the management process does not cause absolutely no discomfort.
Now we move to the rear seats. Here you can already set out a lot of complaints. This is a relatively low ceiling, and the sofa is closely, where only two adults can fit freely. Also, it is unpleasant that with the sweaties of the driver and the front passenger, the knees of the rear passengers are tightly fixed in an inconvenient position.
Critics deserves and the capacity of the luggage compartment in 402 liters, but the test drive showed that 2-3 suitcase fit freely. In addition, the folded rear sofa allows you to increase the volume of up to 1387 liters. If this is not enough, you can extract the spare time and get some more luggage space.
Movement on a 123-high engine turned out to be quite predictable - soft, but at the same time, some cargo. On a straight road, everything is more or less good, but the engine is better to overload up to 2,800 revolutions per minute. This is especially true in cases where the trunk of the crossover is fully loaded.
As for overtaking, it is more complicated than other car cars. The situation partially saves the 6-speed "mechanics", which has already proven itself from Solaris. Yes, and fuel consumption is lower than the competitors - on average 7 liters per hundred.
Four-wheel drive
So, now overlook the two-liter motor with 6 automatic transmission and full drive. To say that the difference is, it's nothing to say. But the differences relate technical characteristicsWhile the interior design is almost identical. It is worth noting that the 2-liter installation is noisy basic, and this, honestly, is wonderful - the true spirit of the SUV is felt. For a test drive, Hyundai Protein with a two-liter engine was chosen a hilly terrain and the car was absolutely not disappointed. The only disadvantage of the crossover under these conditions was the high rigidity of the steering wheel, because of which it has to be constantly giving. In addition, with an indicator of revolutions of 4,000, there is a small disruption of the interaction of the motor and gearbox.
The full drive system perfectly showed itself on steep lifting. This is especially good manifested on rubble roads. A real test was a 30-degree raising, but Cretage 2.0 coped with him.
At the end, the coat came to the explosion field, which seemed to him with children's entertainment. The suspension showed itself perfectly, just immediately noticeable that the front part is a little inferior to the reliability of the back.
Output
Well, let's sum up the test drive Hyundai Greta: the car does not like high speed and sharp maneuvers. It is more suitable for road off-road, although it cannot be said that it is lost in conditions of intensive movement. With the right approach, Korean can become a good urban car.
E if so, then to challenge her or fade away in the spurs of Altai. Where the plain is replaced by the picturesque gorge, cutting the turquoise waters of the Katun River, undergoes an exemplary-demonstrative journalistic consequence. The Hyundai CD-crossover CD is not yet guilty of anything, but suspicion causes a lot from the public, in all articles.
And yet, despite the four-hour difference with Moscow, common sense dubts the semi-alone consciousness. It is difficult not to notice that Creta, despite all its "globality" - something interesting, and above all - on design.
The car's stylistics seems to me suspiciously familiar. Typical European, but what does he look like? You can throw the stones, but Mercedes GLK came first to mind, only a pretty reduced and in a special reading. The second, due to the form of the front window frame, is Skoda Fabia.
Of course, such associations are not a dogma ... everyone will find their own, but the emotionality of the Kret will not lose anyway. It has practically no smooth equipment and zallanes, but there are characteristic, immediately memorable signs. For example, headlights and rear optics of identical forms with a pronounced "make-up" eyelvering with outside, barely extended wheeled arches with plastic protection moving on the thresholds. Supplement its elegant lining on the doors. Everything, the rest is a combination of faces of various sizes and configurations, from which there is a very attractive image.
Without reckoning
As often happens, the manufacturer submitted cars to the test in the maximum, from three possible, versions - Comfort. For information: there is still a completely "empty" START and a little more "packaged" ACTIVE. The latter - with air conditioning and heated steering wheel, but without the possibility even for extra charge, it will be necessary to order a branded audio system with a touch screen - it is necessary, apparently, to put out dealers from dealers some neoriginal (which will not like everyone). In general, the configuration is arranged in such a way that the "full minced" will probably be in demand, and our test drive of the top version in which eyelids is not cut off from consumer reality.
Claudize revelations
I do not know what impression would have left from the starting interior of Creta, but the one is offered in the top, does not disappoint completely. His stylist one in one repeats the exterior: chopped front panel lines, from a visor of perfectly readable tidy with large limbs and information LCD displays between them to the optional multimedia block, also covered with a small sunscreen visor, which was built on an electronic clock strip. From this deliberate relief, emphasized by powerful vertical deflectors of air ducts with a framed by matte aluminum, only a climatic block with a pair of control wheels and five additional keys is slightly knocked out.
Keys and minimum buttons, which is quite rational for a small but not close Salon. But they have been placed not only ergonomically, but also designer thoughtfully. For example, a mini-block of adjusting the mirrors was located on an insert in a vertically standing door panel handle. Cool and convenient solution.
At the same time, as in the other Hyundai models, the thickness of the doors is reduced to a minimum. Therefore, the width of the salon at 1,387 mm at the level of the shoulders is quite sufficient even for two full men. No complaints and height: My 185 cm is absolutely not critical for a comfortable landing behind the wheel, besides the range of adjustments of chairs, both longitudinally and vertically grabs. How not to remember the main competitor Creta - which, with external impressivity, turns out to be pretty close ...
It is a pity that with all the convenience from the heart of the profiled backrest, the Creta seats cruise cushion, and compensate for the lack of an angle of its inclination. If you come to accept this, then it is convenient to settle behind the wheel - not a problem. In particular, due to the huge range of steering adjustment by departure, which, like much more, is not provided in the younger set.

The wishes of colleagues quickly try on the driver's chair adds me to the role of the passenger - but no one you definitely call it. True, the distance from the head to the ceiling is slightly smaller than the front, and even comfortably on the sofa only together. With revelation, the fact that my knees were completely shifted back the front chairs did not touch the backs! And this is despite the fact that the Creta wheelbase of 2,590 mm loses the one that there is DUSTER (2,673 mm) and Kaptur (2,674 mm). Well, there are absolute values, but there are vital realities.
Volume of trunk
402/1 387 liters
You can criticize the volume of the trunk in 402 liters, but the suitcase-two, plus another backpack, will fit. And where more for the city car? In contrast to its opponents, lay out a few seconds of the backrest - get your 1387 liters for seedlings, bike and other things in the beach season. If this is not enough, there are secret compartments about full-size sparkle under the raised floor. Need even more - hang over the roof, which will not spoil any iot appearance. In the end, this is a small crossover, not a cargo van. Of course, in pre-crisis times, but who already remembers this ...

The start on the 123-strong "mechanic" turned out to be completely predictable, because the cutting mass of the krett (1,345 kg) is almost 200 kilograms more than that of solaris (1,54 kg), and the motors are the same. Nevertheless, the car does not show itself a frank slit, especially on roven road. But for normal dynamics, the engine must be twisted at least to 2,800 rpm, especially if the car is loaded and raised to the mountains.
It was harder to overtake, it is necessary to switch more often, but 6 gears are frank blessing, and they are easily clicked and very accurately. Of course, if you discard the desire to win on a hundred kilometers of the way for five to ten minutes, the engine does not cause special claims. In addition, as the 2.0-liter, who will like me a little later, he willingly digest 92th gasoline, which is important, and the consumption does not go out for 7 with a small liter on a hundred.
The 123-strong front-wheel drive "coat" is rare pleasant. First, the multifunctional steering wheel, in our case, with the electric powerful, pleased with a small course - 2.8 turns from the stop until the stop and pronounced "zero". It is very light at the time of starting the engine, it poured up with effort on the first second of the movement, and remained such, according to the first impression, regardless of speed.
Hyundai Creta.
Consumption per 100 km
Secondly, in the 1,6-liter monolrified version, the rear suspension is not multi-dimensional, as at the front or all-wheel drive "double-lit down", and half-dependent, with a torsion beam. In a simple and inexpensive scheme there is its own buzz. As with the load from the back, so without it, the car ruls without special rolls, not forcing the stabilization system nervous, but for serious off-road, the suspension moves are already short.
Volume of fuel tank
And if you still take the shore of Katuna on the boulders of the boulders? Alas, such a wild beach for a 1.6-liter motor with MCP is unsuitable. Light and comfortable on the asphalt clutch on such a coating turned out to be weak. To be moved from the place, not the discharge of the disk due to the forced increase in revolutions at the start (eh, the moment would be a little more in the bottom), it is almost impossible.
Well, everyone, give a two-liter 149-strong version! We will compare.
According to the full program
No differences in the cabin, except covered leather The selector "Machine", in the top for all parameters and reinforced three "packages" version of Creta failed. Is that a 2-liter NU series turned out to be a little more noisy on idlingthan a small 1.6 gamma. I was so fascinated by the study of technical sounds, which completely forgot about the music. But it is, and not bad, about six speakers and with a USB entrance. Well, Vysotsky and "Farewell to Mountains" with reliable nizami and natural hoarse? Yes, that's the way, but it is too early to part with the Altai.
If with a basic engine and front-wheel drive, all my desires did not always correspond to the possibilities, then on a powerful all-wheel drive car they are simply obliged to be fulfilled. Of course, to storm Belukha - the highest center point of Altai - I do not rummate, but why not call on a gentleman, velvety from the hills, which in the vicinity are at least eliminating?
To the most picturesque with altitudes for 1,000 meters - one and a half hundreds of the miles. Trivia, unless suddenly finds out that on a speed, albeit winding, the road rigidity - not always there is a sign of honed controllability. I absolutely did not like it in fast turns constantly, and howling the engine tandem and boxes with more than 4,000 rpm pleasure did not add. Not very pleasant facts, although compensation for them did not make himself wait.

Curb weight
Altai primers are mostly stony, because the four-wheel drive is justified only on steep rise, where it is important not to lower the smooth crushes. Collective tracks with mud in the mountains almost no, and 190 mm road Suit, engine power and torque in 192 nm at 4,200 rpm grabs. There were no innovations in the transmission of Kretch, leaving everything as Tucson and his tribesmen. From overheating, it got rid of several years ago due to the electro-hydraulic control drive, and taking into account the weight of the compact crossover operates in automatic mode faster and more efficiently.
Climbing after the Niva to more than a 30-degree slope turned out to be quite real. However, after a couple of tens of meters, I prefer to block the clutch with the button - it hurts the rise. Fixed traction on the axes in the proportion of 50:50 it is simply necessary on it. Next - manual ACP mode and a disabled stabilization system. Another minute and ... Here it is, the top. But roll down much more terrible, even with the included "assistant descent." Alas, 10 km / h on such a bias - already a lot, and without a stepwise braking can not do. It seems that Creta passed the most severe test in his life ...
Even drangled canvas, the bevelled field with the rone, where the body did not creak and did not squeak the cabin panels, it seems to children's entertainment. Withstand the suspension, breaking through only once in front, but the rear multi-dimensions were much more stronger than McPherson racks. Compared to the Krett twin design, Hyundai IX25 for China, it was strengthened due to springs and installed almost vertically shock absorbers with a reduced valve cross section. However, the entire system is borrowed from - naturally, with refinement. And if almost all owners complained about the excessive softness of the Hyundai chassis, then Creta is hardly disappointed in this regard.

So what's in the dry residue? As already noted, Creta does not like high speeds and sharp maneuvers. For them, the crossover was not sharpened, but they taught to drive in the "civil regimes" correctly, I would say - academic. At the same time, the car has also been truly modern and convenient. How reliable will only show time. But now Renault-Nissan is already with their crossovers on the platform B0, and at the same time Ford with EcoSport and Peugeot from 2008 it is hard to think firmly. Sparks in Creta turned out to be more than enough.

With all its novelty Hyundai Creta, it is also not from a clean sheet. And obviously, it is not only one designer plan that the configuration of the front racks of the body and door frames one in one copies Kia Soul.- It is obvious that the entire frame of the front of the two models is as unified as possible, although the outer panels have original Krett. The front module of the platform is almost identical, because the McPherson suspension on the subframe, disc brakes and steering mechanisms (with a hydraulic or electric detector, depending on the modification) - common for all compact Hyundai-Kia models, including Elantra / i30 and Cerato / Cee "D , differences only in the settings. Here is the rear of the smallest crossover Hyundai. Its: in order to obtain all-wheel drive modification, Koreans used several modifications multi-type suspension From the "senior" Tucson / Sportage with the Electro-hydraulic friction clutch Magna Dynamax, which demanded an increase in the "Soylaist" wheelbase for two centimeters. A semi-dependent suspension of the mono-drive version had to "tighten the geometry": elongated longitudinal levers and other attachment points of the "high" shock absorbers improved off-road kinematics. The basic 1,6-liter engine for the Russian specification (in other markets is also offered a 1,4-liter option) with the currency also shared Tucson and Elantra. This is an aluminum 16-valve G4FC unit with a timing chain drive, belonging to the Gamma family, like a Solaris Motor, but that simplified version with a phasemator only on the inlet, and here are two. Power Adds This does not give this, there is a small win only in economy, and modifications with the immediate injection of G4FD gasoline, which is equipped with Soul, Kurt, as a more budget model, does not leverage, not to mention the turbocharged G4FJ speaking as a top engine for Tucson . Here, it was given to the atmospheric two-liter "four" family of NU, also with phase inspections on the inlet and release, the timing chain and multipoint injection with the changeable intake manifold configuration. With such engines in Russia, the same Tucson, and the new Elantra, and more solid i40 are sold. Of course, the "all-step" and gearboxes are a six-speed mechanical M6CF1, combined only with a 1,6-liter unit, and A6MF2 automatically aggregating with both engines. Six-speed hydromechanical box own development Hyundai-Kia in various modifications in terms of the transmitted torque is installed on a variety of models, from the same solaris to a large Grand Santa Fe crossover. By the way, with the last Kretu Rodnitis and the fact that it, regardless of the engine and transmission, has disk brake mechanisms On all wheels.
