Renault Latitude
Renault Latitude: from 795 000 rub. Renault Latitude: from 795 000 rub.
Latitude's driving habits are typical of a large sedan of non-Teutonic blood: the steering is not too sensitive, but overall the behavior is clear and safe. The duo of a 2-liter version with a variator provides acceptable dynamics. The car’s strength is a convincing set of options, including three-zone climate control, a fragrance and an ionizer (the latter cleans the air from harmful bacteria and allergens), bi-xenon headlights, a panoramic glass roof and other goodies.

Of course, the initial version of Expression is more modest: ABS, emergency braking assistance, front and side air bags, airbags, air conditioning, a refrigerated storage box, heated front seats, trip computer, MP3 audio center, front and rear power windows, side mirrors, foglights, a full-size spare wheel, steel wheels.

There are two ways to get a car with a “machine gun” and a solid set of options for about the same money. The first is to purchase the top-of-the-range golf cart equipment. Another option is to pick up a used car from a more prestigious segment in the secondary market. Given your wishes, we will try to offer mainly "French".
The way to downgrade (new)
Peugeot 308 1.6 automatic transmission, Allure
Peugeot 308
• Power, hp at rpm: 150 at 6000
• Max. speed, km / h: 212
• Acceleration 0–100 km / h, s: 9.1
• Fuel consumption, l / 100 km, city / highway / mix. cycle: 11.0 / 8.0 / 6.8
French charm is not the only trump card of the Peugeot 308. Finishing materials are an example to follow in the golf class. The interior is spacious, especially at the front row. The car has an accurate steering wheel with intelligible feedback, ultra-sensitive brakes and "armor is strong" - the car earned 5 stars according to the results of crash tests EuroNCAP. You can visit the tangible rolls in the corners and low hanging front bumper.
Renault Fluence 2.0 CVT, Dynamique with add. options
Renault Fluence
• Power, hp at rpm: 138 at 6000
• Max. speed, km / h: 200
• Acceleration 0–100 km / h, s: 9.9
• Fuel consumption, l / 100 km, city / highway / mix. cycle: 6.2 / 10.5 / 7.8
Among the virtues of Renault Fluence there is a spacious interior, good ride, sound insulation, high ground clearance. The sedan has an unusually roomy trunk of 530 liters with a large opening. Talents Fluence fully revealed on a suburban highway. The suspension is good at smoothing out bumps in the roadway, but it is prone to breakdowns in serious bumps. The steering is not very informative.
Citroen C4 1.6 Automatic, Exclusive
Citroen C4
• Power, hp at rpm: 120 at 6000
• Max. speed, km / h: 188
• Acceleration 0–100 km / h, s: 12.5
• Fuel consumption, l / 100 km, city / highway / mix. cycle: 10.0 / 5.1 / 6.9
The current Citroen C4 is devoid of the extravagance of its predecessor, it is for the better. But the finishing materials are better, ergonomics to match the German classmates, the steering wheel is gripy, the driver's seat is comfortable. The C4 asset has a high level of security, comfort, good steering feedback. But it seems that the adaptation of the suspension to Russian roads did not do without side effects, responding with tangible rolls in turns.
Volkswagen Golf 1.4 robot., Highline with add. options
Volkswagen Golf
• Power, hp at rpm: 122 at 5000
• Max. speed, km / h: 200
• Acceleration 0–100 km / h, s: 9.5
• Fuel consumption, l / 100 km, city / highway / mix. cycle: 7.7 / 5.0 / 6.0
In all respects - a model to the envy of classmates rivals, with the exception of a dull appearance. The Golf asset has excellent handling, an elastic TSI turbo engine, precise and informative steering, responsive brakes, high-quality interior trim, well-thought-out ergonomics of the driver's seat. Ride is good on more or less tolerable asphalt. The trunk is comfortable, although not the record holder for spaciousness.
Upgrade Path (Used)
Citroen C6 2006 3.0 automatic transmission
Citroen C6
• Power, hp at rpm: 211 at 6000
• Max. speed, km / h: 230
• Acceleration 0–100 km / h, s: 10.0
• Fuel consumption, l / 100 km, city / highway / mix. cycle: 16.3 / 8.2 / 11.2
French business-class vision: luxurious equipment, a futuristic appearance, which is complemented by a curved rear window and a wing that extends from the trunk. Super comfortable hydropneumatic suspension gives a feeling of soaring above the road. In addition to smoothness, the smart system reduces the clearance of the car at speeds above 110 km / h. But the driver with a driver's vein controllability is unlikely to seem incendiary.
BMW 5 Series (E60) 2006 2.0 automatic transmission
BMW 5 Series
• Power, hp at rpm: 170 at 6100
• Max. speed, km / h: 230
• Acceleration 0–100 km / h, s: 9.0
• Fuel consumption, l / 100 km, city / highway / mix. cycle: 13.0 / 6.8 / 9.1
A symbol of life success and drivers car in one bottle. After several years, the appearance of this creation by Chris Bangle no longer seems defiant, and the excellent handling of the BMW 5 Series has never been called into question. The "Five" is crammed with complex systems, which is not always a plus for the owner of a second-hand. It might be wiser to opt for a version without Servotronic or Dynamic Drive.
Renault Vel Satis 2007 2.0 automatic transmission
Renault Vel Satis
• Power, hp at rpm: 170 at 5000
• Max. speed, km / h: 205
• Acceleration 0–100 km / h, s: 10.2
• Fuel consumption, l / 100 km, city / highway / mix. cycle: 14.5 / 7.7 / 10.2
The decision of Renault to step into the executive segment with a car in a hatchback body seems insanely bold! And in contrast to the original appearance - the interior is designed in a calm key with the quality of decoration inherent more likely to German cars. Thanks to the unusual layout, the Vel Satis is very spacious, the landing is almost vertical. Suspension smooths out small bumps well.
2008 Nissan Teana 2.5 CVT
Nissan Teana
• Power, hp at rpm: 182 at 6000
• Max. speed, km / h: 200
• Acceleration 0–100 km / h, s: 9.6
