Chery Omoda 5 in the Russian market

After it's time to send your VAZ to a well-deserved rest, you will have to choose a car. Today you can find a quality hatchback at a price of 2 million rubles.

We have a widespread opinion that buying Chinese products is not worth it. However, until you make sure that it is quite high quality, it is hard to believe. Yes, omoda is no frills. When the engine is picking up speed in the range from 2500 to 3000, a whistle is heard under the hood, as if there is a turbine. But this, perhaps, is all the claims that can be made to this car. And on a run of 16 thousand km, the car continues to please, and not upset, as they say on some Internet forums. The motor is responsive, gaining momentum well.

Build quality … the car is very well put together. Accustomed for many years to deal with my car on my own, I nevertheless climbed under the hood and into the chassis to personally make sure that everything is securely screwed there and does not hang out. What can I say, the car is no more complicated than the Zhiguli, so in case of any problems and the impossibility of fixing them in the service, I will figure it out myself. This moment pleases me, because I travel a lot and on the far from ideal roads of Zaporozhye. I'm not going to change the car yet.
