These machines are designed for people practical - they would have to take more purchases, on-site Parking for a long time not to look and extra fuel not to burn. Updated "Honda jazz" attacked by two of the season's new - Kia-alder" and "Opel-meriva". Who will win?
Kia Venga, Opel Meriva, Honda JazzSTEPEN COMPREHATIVE-I'm sorry!A scene at a museum or a theatre: two intellectuals cannot decide who will enter first. Vehicles do not usually have such problems-front and rear seat passengers rest independently of each other. But not in Meriwa. Unconditional "Operator" is the back doors that open against the move, but they require a clear "setting of priorities", otherwise it is unwise to collide with the forehead. It's time to announce, in the metro: "Caution, the doors are closing." The neftiness "Opel" gives the brown decoration. There are options with a red lining to the front. Let the first driver be able to lubricate the fixed seat with the giant ranges of adjustments and is played with a boksom-armor running on rails. The passenger is now enjoying the same pleasure.If you use a two-seat configuration of the back sofa, it's great to go here. But the three of us are already crowded, because the seats have to be moved forward to take back the humbled middle part of the pillow. As a result, the knees "come" to the front back. One car god knows how many forces Opel engineers cost their door idea. For all currently manufactured cars with "incorrect" scheme (e.g. "Khonda-Element" and "MINI-Klubman") open the rear gate only by opening the front gate. Was it a candle game? In our view, apart from the externalities, there is nothing practical in this idea. This is evident in comparison with competitors. "Wenga" meets the smile of the front bumper, it seems, is still positive. We give it to the designers: it is the "Kea" attracted the increased interest on the road (especially, of course, female). Inside "Wenga" after "Opel", it's like an apple versus a coconut.Everything is known in comparison: the inner decoration of "Wengi" lacks the imagination of "Jazz", the softness and the brightness of "Meriva". No exotic, neither ergonomics nor finishing. But it tastes like apple. I'm building up in a tight and highly planted driver's seat. I'm looking. These are the same as most of the other "Kea", the comfortable climate control and audio systems; they are pretty, though they have already seen the instruments. The obvious mischief. Wide front racks and mirrors with a cut corner are not conducive to it. The rear seat is the widest, and the non-adversarial view will be taken even by three. The door is open, of course, not at right angles. But you can come in, you'll be able to get out without any trouble.What about Honda? It has been a long time past and hasn't changed much since modernization, so I'm flying on it toward the landfill like on the invisible jet: we are ignored by moms with strollers in the yards, and young people at the diner on the track, and even immediately noticing new models of the girl-the operator of the favorite gas station. Maybe in a couple of years, Honda will play "Jazz" entirely new. But please don't improvise with the interiors.Due to the front desk, the review from the "Honda" salon does not cause problems. "Honda" has managed to create a special mood in the salon with all its asymmetries and illogic. In my opinion, it is in Jazz that you feel like the owner of a modern machine. There was a difference between the appearance of the species and the touch of the plastic. The seats are soft, cozy, and the sips rejoice in the cool lumbar support. He also liked the glove compartment from the two branches. But the main revelation is the second rowAnd it's not even about his ability to transform (we have dedicated a separate head). There is more room for the feet than in "Kea" and "Opel." And "Jazz" short: "Meriva" and "Wenga" is longer than it is 388 and 168 mm long, respectively. For the most rational use of space we honored "Jazz" with the highest 10 points in the category "Rear end of the salon". "Meriwa", which we managed to get for the test, is fundamentally different from the opponents not only to the doors-under the hood and then the diesel urchet. At a comparable capacity, it offers a hundred newtons more than its gasoline competitors. Inspired by the dynamometric road and the gas. The six-speed machine "Opel" works in sports and smoothly, but the heavy machine is still unable to keep up with the rivals. Alas, neither the six-speed machine gun, nor the maximum thrust available from the 1700rpm, emotions do not cause emotion"Meriwa" is heavier than "Wengi" by 281 kg, and the difference with "Honda" and that is more-413 kg! The last part played the soundproofing game here. By subjective judgement, Meriva is the most quiet of the trinity. At high speed, there is no whistling of wind in mirrors, almost no tyres. Even the engine at idling speed is almost unheard. The Korean car is a powerful 25-force competier. "Venga" is busier at the start and to disperse up to a hundred "Opel" vomits in tatting. But a four-stage automatic-turn machine is inadequately chosen and does not always adequately choose the transfer. Then, as if by mistake, it was starting to jump from one step to another. We've all raised the "Wenga" assessment for the dynamics, but we won the comfort. The "Kia" submachine gun selector allows you to switch blind. The sign "Wengi" is characterized by one word: oak. It is impossible to penetrate the speed of the "fly-by-jolt" at a low speed, and it is impossible to penetrate the whole course. In revenge, Wenga shakes the riders and winds up the soul with a meticule recount of trifles. The final point is soundproofing. "Pestorry" in the wheel arches and splinters of the puddle-here's your music on the road. There was only one dissonance-a failed robotic transmission in the Jase toro. The rejection of her was absolutely correct. A ramped variable took her place. And the car's sound! A light and sensitive gas pedal allows a branch to catch a draught, and the variator is set so that the engine speed is also growing with speed. So there's no sign of the engine on one note, like many other cars with a variator. It's a nice little detail-gearshift gearshift petals, they're also in Japanese. For active riding on "Jazz", only the sports mode of the variant, when the turnover is reached to the maximum. "Jazz" suspension, which was so successful in Moscow's avenues, disappointed that it was a hundred kilometers away from the capital. Several times it has been closed for both compression and ottee. On the part of the noise in the Honda salon, the middle, and not the gold. RADIUS, I understand Europeans: when it comes to mountains with the hand to serve almost from any point of the Old World, manageability is unlikely to be the first place in the selection of a car. Live near the Alps, I'd look at the Opel. I don't care about the mediocal thrust, the serpentine is more important than collectivity and loyalty!The electro-hydraulic power amplifier "Meriva" is not a reference, but is close to it. The force is increasing in proportion to the speed and the cruise of the turn, so you drive the car with a great sense of the line behind which the Opel is sailing out. Is the driver continuing to take no action? The stabilisation system will drive the car smoothly and return it to the trajectory. But if we still have to get to the mountains on the highway, the Meriva will show a little bit worse. It's about the artificial sense of the rudder in the near-zero zone and barely noticeable deviations from the straight line. All the time you try to understand that it's a little bit of a car, and that's why you're making friends, or vice versa? But it's all the stuff-try to grab the same route to "Kia." At the first moment, the steering wheel of "Wengi" seems ideal in terms of "return", to park in the city one pleasure. Slow down: the wheel is losing its jurisdiction, but it does not become too stubborn as "Meriva". The Kia Venga, Opel Meriva, Honda Jazzlillilya spilled into the first steep turn. On the uneven surface of the bark comes the whole "dirt", the force changes in a skirmishes, confusing. In the next turn under the wheels of the Sigole hare, it was necessary to carry out the rebidding at full speed. It was not only a scythe: the rudder was blocked by a sudden manjew-the feeling was not pleasant. Probably, therefore, all the "vengah" with the 1.6-engine stabilization system is part of the basic equipment. It is working with a stock, sharply pressing the rapidly developing rafting of the front axle. "Honda" is like a Pashka! "Jazz" gladly responds to the actions of the driver and jiggles in the turns-up to the time. There are small tires on the car, so it would be naive to expect a picture of it. Overworked? The stabilization system will be able to cope with both demolitions (which occur more often) and oversteer (rare). ESP, like all other Honda systems, is delicate, but exact. Amateurs will surely have a mediocal inverse relationship on the steering wheel (it is much easier than the Korean-and the more German-the machines), with the expected increase in the effort to wait even at high speeds. It is the disharmony of the active driving and the appreciable chairs of the body. At a certain point, the rear suspension begins to move "Jazz" into the turn and corrects the shattered curve of the renome. Of course, the controllability of "Jazz" is not perfect, there is no spark that would make us want to be able to carry on all the poles. And yet Honda left a very pleasant impression of a complete lack of irritating factors-and is not that the main, though not technically, characteristic of the car?I'm going to take a look at the Otle Meriwa, how do I study the corners of the salon? Like something to hide in it. What about the keys to the cars themselves? We put the key in different timeses in every salon. The task of the volunteer, for the first time seeing these three vehicles, is to find the "treasure" as quickly as possible. It was almost no place to hide the values at Wenga, but it was the most difficult to find! "Kia-Wenga" Two keys were found almost immediately, and the third our hero had to look for more than in Honda and Opel (7 mines 11 s). "Kia" in this picking is a button, and we just inserted the key into the regular slot in the steering column. Our tracker wasn't expecting it!It was easy to get the keys in Opel. The Merivet has crates under the front seats, lower left of the steering wheel, and finally, the chariot for the driver. But our seeker was most interested in a multistorey elbow, which he collected and dealt with, like a Rubik's Cube (5 min 45 s). There were no problems with Honda Jazz: there was a two-tiered gard, in the trunk and under the rear of the rear seat cushion (3 min 15 s). Mikhail Gzowsky: "The very close-to-model assessments are explained by the ... unique and quiet" Venga "," Venga ", compact and intelligent" Jazz ". Each model has its own merits. Everything is known in comparison: the inner decoration of "Wengi" lacks the imagination of "Jazz", softness and brightness of "Meriva". The neftiness "Opel" gives the brown decoration. There are options with a red lining to the front. Due to the front desk, the review from the "Honda" salon does not cause problems. In the background of the "Jazz" instrumentation, the "Kea" instruments seem to be simple. Meriw's lumbar instruments are picky in any light. "Jazz" Optimized instruments are good. Even the combination of brighred scale and blue LCD displays no rejection. The "Kia" submachine gun selector allows you to switch blind. The six-speed machine "Opel" works in sports and smoothly, but the heavy machine is still unable to keep up with the rivals. For active riding on "Jazz", only the sports mode of the variant, when the turnover is reached to the maximum. Climate-control buttons in a circle are an original idea. Unification dictates that the central console has moved from Astra. Two circles with the climate control buttons at hand. The "Illuminator" at the temperature. I would add a Sieden of "Kei" to the side support. The landing is the highest. The front seats are "Meriva" with huge ranges of length and height and the swing profile. Seat "Honda" to drivers of a variety of different things seemed convenient, despite a slightly short pillow. The "Wengi" salon does not have enough visual softness at the "Wengy" salon. In order to prevent the driver and passenger from shoving elbows on the landing, the angle on which the doors are opened is almost straight: 84 °. A cup holder across from the duct is brilliant. The tea was not tasted, and the Coke was cool. Kia-Venga "Khonday-Jazz" "Kia Venga" "Kea" offers sliding back seats, thanks to which it is not difficult to increase the already large trunk of the competitors. The rear seats of the Meriva move forward-backwards by 250 mm. Jazz is still a clubhouse!Fantasies with Kia's engineers can be smaller than the competition. If you drown the middle part, then the two side seats slide back to the center. Now there's a paradise for the two. In the cabin, you can move the bike. And if you do, it's two. The Wengi trunk is the most suitable for 352 litres. Picnic can be arranged on folding tables in the back of the front seats. Access to the dockette closes the shelf: it is fixed at the wheel archer level, and we get the second floor for small objects. You can also lift the floor up to the top of the drivesto get a smooth surface on the same level with the folded back of the sofa. And then the trunk was swinging, and it was just 300 liters. When the backs of the "Honda" seat are folded up and down, there is a flat site. The process takes a few seconds and requires minimal effort. We thought of 316 liters in the trunk of Jaza.
