About the upcoming models of AVTOVAZ, the rules of technical inspection, VIP-vehicles and their owners, turn right on red light and promising trainers. Let' s start with the news of our automotive industry. This week, it became known that since October 1, 2011, AvtoVAZ is reducing the prices for cars of Lada Samara family on average of 20,000 cars. -Ruble. The most affordable version of Lada Samara-a three-door hatchback in the standard-will cost 240,000 people. -Ruble. However, this model will not take long: from 1 January 2012, Lada Samara production on AVTOVAZ will stop and move to Izhauto power, where it will stay until the end of 2013. Lada Granta Sport (photo: rcrate. ru) This step is connected with the active launch of the Lada Granta model, which will also receive a sports version with a capacity of 1.6 l and a 120 l capacity with a capacity of 120 thousand tonnes. The rouble is more expensive than usual. In parallel with Grant, AVTOVAZ plans to update Kalina. The new Lada Kalina will be produced in a hatchback and station wagon, and the main changes will touch the front of the car. So far, only the first "Kalina" sketch is available. The first sketch of Lada Kalina e, who is thinking about buying the first in his life, can be calm: despite the volatile economy and the changing dollar exchange rate, buy a good car with a cost of $400,000. Up to 500,000. The rouble is quite real. But whatever car you drive, everyone will have to undergo a technical inspection sooner or later, which will now be necessary for the conclusion of the OSAGO treaty. The State of the Motor Insurers was granted high powers by the State. In particular, it is given the functions of accreditation of operators of technical inspection, maintenance of the register of operators, creation of an open information resource, accounting of the cards of the cards and organization of providing them with operators and checking the operators on the basis of complaints received from citizens. At the same time, vehicles up to 3 years old from the inspection will be free, aged 3-7 will be inspected every two years and the older seven years will be held annually. In addition, the authorities promise that the cost of the inspection will not exceed 2,000. -Ruble. The amount is small, but still hurtful, because the president initially wanted to cancel the inspection, then decided to simplify it as much as possible, and now it becomes clear that nothing has changed. It is no less interesting to develop events around so-called VIP cars. At the beginning of the week, Moscow traffic police actively checked vehicles with special signals, special passes and so-called "blite" numbers. According to eyewitnesses, even vehicles leaving the Kremlin were stopped. The following day, however, it became clear that the action was of a one-off nature. An ordinary departure to the streets of the city and observation of the passing stream showed: after a small noise, everything returned to its place: executive cars with the numbers of the AMR series, the AMO, etc. without the lights, they moved freely in the dividing strip and on the red light. The DPS patrol has ignored a gross violation of the rules. ZR readers. RU in most does not support the impotence of "Mihalelok", however, is it surprising to such a scenario? When the average cost of a state car is RUB 4 million and, as a rule, this executive car, the government is rapidly beginning to feel its impunity and the opportunity to do anything. And the amount spent from the state budget is clearly not limited to these four million, since the machine still needs to be kept, repaired, washed, and as long as insurance is worth the price of such luxury car, it is best not to remember. And for all the pleasure of the officials, we pay you ordinary taxpayers. The most pleasant situation. Even some of the people's valor felt that they were overtaken with a stick. For example, Gennady Gudkov introduced a bill to the State Duma, which limits the guests to VIP cars. According to the strange coincidence of circumstances, the next day of the people's deputy was stopped by the officers of the DPP. for the illicit use of robotic devices. The deputy was removed from his rights. The circle closed. Photo: proboy. net, though, don't be sad. After all, this week again, another interesting theme-a turn to the red light. The Moscow Center for Control of Traffic is holding a vote that should reveal the attitude of drivers to this possibility. At the time of writing, 88% of those polled spoke for the possibility of turning right if there was a special badge in the form of an arrow. The voting results will be known after 05 October. We're on ZR. RU decided to conduct a survey with the results of which you can see below. In one form or another, 78 per cent of the respondents were red. However, the GFMD has so far been telling the initiative a one-to-one "no". The passing week has passed under the sign of the crossover in the full sense of the word. Konstantin Vasilyev and Andrei Kochetov compared the advantages and disadvantages of two Korean cars: the new SsangYong Actyon and Kia Sportage. The first one proved to be the best and could become a bestseller of the Russian market, although the choice of an ambitious citizen is likely to be behind the Kia Sportage. And another Asian company, Chery, has organized a small test drive in the new compact crossover of the Indis. Car with a starting price of 370,000 tonnes. "Chery really wants to win the hearts of Russians," he said. However, it should be noted that Chinese cars are getting better and better and at the same time, AVTOVAZ products will start to be squeeed out. Another Chinese car, Great Wall Hover H5, has shown himself to be a friend. The test conducted on the Kola Peninsula showed that a crossover with a double-litre turbodiesel engine with a capacity of 150 l. quite nicely deals with different types of roads. Finally, on Friday, Citroen officially showed the new crossover C4 Aircross. The 4.34 m vehicle, 1.8 m wide and 1.63 m high, will be equipped with one of two petrol or one of two diesel engines. The creators position the car as a rival of VW Tiguan, Nissan Qashqai, Skoda Yeti and Ford Kuga. All we have to do is wait for the official presentation, find out the prices and, of course, try new things. Citroen C4 Aircross for dessert from Europe: by 2020, the continent's member states will work out a single set of traffic rules. In addition, the European Parliament recommended limiting the maximum speed in populated localities to 30 km/h, as well as setting the limit of permissible alcohol content in the blood of drivers at 0.0 per mille. Although the last measure will affect only new drivers and professionals, and the recommendation of the European Parliament is not binding on the member states so far, it is not ruled out that the deputies will still listen and then the SDA in Russia will be closer to the European Union. Or, on the contrary, they are ours to look at.
