The new crossover Hyundai iX 35 2013-2014 will be dedicated this review. To the attention of readers, the updated exterior and interior, new specifications engines and suspensions, extended equipment, and most importantly, the first impressions of auto journalists and reviews of owners new Hyundai ix35 obtained through a test drive of the updated crossover. It's nice that the new Hyundai iX 35 is already available to Russian motorists, price for those who want to buy it varies from 899 to 1349 thousand rubles. We, as usual, offer to evaluate the changes in the exterior and interior of the new ix35 Korean crossover based on photo and video materials.

The crossover appeared in the line Korean manufacturer in 2009 and in a short time became a real bestseller in the environment compact crossovers. But, as they say, nothing lasts forever, and it's time for restyling, only visually the new Hyundai ix35 presented in the spring of 2013 on Geneva Motor Show almost did not change. Is it good or bad when in the process of updating the appearance popular machine does not change? Only the owners can give an answer to this question, but we know that with slight interventions in the exterior design, Korean specialists focused on innovations in the cabin and technical part of the ix35 crossovers.

The new Hyundai ah 35 2014 outwardly differs from the pre-reform model with new headlights with fashionable LED strips of marker running lights. The rear overall lighting also changed its design, and in the most saturated configurations, the filling of the rear lights with LEDs, a fin-antenna appeared on the roof of the crossover, providing a signal for the radio and GPS device.

Of course, the designers did not disregard wheel disks made of light alloy, they received a fresh pattern design. Thanks to minimal intervention, the updated Hyundai ah 35 retained familiar proportions and body lines, but began to look more modern and stylish.

• dimensions bodies new Hyundai ix 35 2013-2014 remained at the level of the restyled model and is 4410 mm long, 1820 mm wide, 1660 mm high, with a 2640 mm wheelbase, ground clearance - 175 mm.

The value, albeit modest, but short front and rear overhangs provide tolerable geometric cross-country ability of the body. Still, the suspension moves a little more, and so the wheels are hung out even when minor change relief.

• On korean crossover Hyundai Eich 35 restyled are installed Kumho tires or Hankook 225/ 60 R17 on alloy wheels 17 radius, larger wheels 225/55 R18 are available as an option.

Changes in Hyundai showroom The ix35 2014 turns out to be much more than just a crossover. On dashboard Supervision introduced a 4.2-inch color trip computer screen, touch screen multimedia system on the center console has increased in size to 7 inches (CD MP3 Bluetooth radio, subwoofer and GPS navigator, rear view camera). That's just all this is available in the maximum configuration, and in more modest versions of the Hyundai Aix 35 monochrome screen on-board computer and a 4.3-inch color screen audio system (CD MP3, radio 6 speakers, camera rear view), and in the initial configuration, in general, a simple audio system (radio, CD MP3 player).
Connectors for USB connections and AUX, music control on the steering wheel, heated first and second row seats, steering wheel height adjustment, electric heated mirrors, power windows for all side windows, air conditioning - this is already in the initial configuration.

With the increase in the cost of the crossover, climate control, telescopic steering column adjustment, cruise control, rain and light sensors, heated steering wheel rim and wiper rest areas will appear in the cabin, a roof with a panoramic view with a sunroof, bi-xenon headlights and a host of other useful little things.

The interior looks simple, but at the same time cozy, functional, and with a pleasant visual effect. The indications on the dashboard are perfectly readable, the controls for the main and auxiliary functions are located conveniently, and most importantly, logically. Finishing materials have become better, more soft, pliable plastic is used, fabric or a combination of finishes (natural and artificial leather) for seats.

Not without a fly in the ointment in the new interior. The front seats were upset - insufficient lateral support and an unsuccessful back profile. Even with the adjustment of the lumbar support, it is not possible to achieve an optimal fit behind the wheel of the updated Hyundai Ai 35, and when traveling long distances, the driver's back becomes numb.

Second-row passengers have nothing to complain about. Comfortable sofa profile, enviable for many classmates space in the leg area, in the width and height of the cabin, the absence of a tunnel on the floor (there is, but minimum height). So, no matter how strange it may seem, it is comfortable and convenient in the cabin of the updated crossover for everyone ... except for the driver.

Another positive point that must be mentioned. The car is very quiet, at a speed of 110-130 km / h only the rustle of tires is heard in the cabin, there are no aerodynamic noises, an annoying voice of the engine or noise from under the bottom. Korean engineers clearly worked on the sound and noise insulation of the cabin, in the end the result was a pleasant surprise.

The trunk of the 2014 Hyundai ix 35 is capable of accommodating 591 liters of cargo with passengers on rear seats and loading up to the level of the protective curtain. Folding down the second row of seats luggage compartment increases to 1436 liters. It's annoying, but a flat floor surface in the trunk, alas, does not work. Maximum dimensions luggage compartment are: 1700 mm long to the backs of the front seats, 1200 mm wide and 730 mm high.

Specifications: the most important changes in the new Hyundai ai 35 2013-2014 are hidden from prying eyes, updated crossover boasts new more modern technical characteristics of engines, gearboxes and suspension.
Three engines are installed under the hood of the updated ix35 sold in Russia.

• The first is the new 2.0-liter petrol MPI Series Nu (149.6 hp 191 Nm), in Europe this motor produces 165 forces.

• A pair of diesel upgraded 2.0-liter CRDi with a return of 136 hp and 184 hp.

The 5 manual transmission was replaced by a modern 6 step mechanics, an alternative to it is 6 automatic transmissions. There are also disc brakes with ABS, ESP, Hill-start Assist Control and electric power steering.
Petrol versions are equipped with front-wheel drive 2WD or plug-in full 4WD.
Diesel Hyundai X 35 is offered exclusively with all-wheel drive transmission 4WD and 6 speed automatic.
So the choice of versions new Hyundai ix35 2014 for the Russians is very wide.

• Hyundai ix35 Nu 2.0 MPI 2WD with 6 manual transmissions (6 automatic transmissions) - dynamics up to 100 mph in 10.7 (11.5) seconds, top speed 185 (177) mph, average fuel consumption 8.6 (8.8) liters.

• Hyundai i35 Nu 2.0 MPI 4WD with 6 manual transmissions (6 automatic transmissions) - acceleration to 100 mph in 11.3 (11.7) seconds, maximum achievable speed 184 (175) mph, fuel consumption in combined mode at least 8.6 (8, 8) liters.

• Hyundai X35 R2.0 CRDi (136 hp) 4WD with 6 automatic transmissions picks up the first hundred in 12.1 seconds, acceleration stops at around 182 mph, diesel fuel in mixed mode requires about 6.8 liters per hundred kilometers.

• Hyundai i35 R2.0 CRDi (184 hp) 4WD with 6 automatic transmissions, the most powerful motor crossover shoots up to a hundred in 9.8 seconds and allows you to accelerate to 195 mph. Fuel consumption in the combined cycle will be according to the manufacturer 7.2 liters.

The updated Hyundai AI 35 2013-2014 is based on the platform, however, as well as the platform. We remind readers that the suspension is fully independent with MacPherson struts for the front wheels and multi-link scheme for the rear, but the chassis has been significantly upgraded. The attachment points of the suspension arms have changed, as a result of which the running-in shoulder of the front axle wheels has decreased, becoming even more negative, rubber bushings are used to attach the subframe to the body (vibration load has decreased and, of course, it has become quieter in the cabin).

Actually in progress test drive the behavior of the new Hyundai i35 pleasantly surprises with noticeably improved handling characteristics on high speed when driving in a straight line and in high-speed turns. When driving a modernized ix35 crossover, you catch yourself thinking that you are driving a business class sedan - minimal body roll, almost complete absence of buildup, acute steering, elastic suspension easily digests large and medium-sized pits.
Interestingly, on country road updated Hyundai 35 2013-2014 model year transformed and managed real crossover, the suspension works out all the bumps in the road tolerantly and comfortably, the quick-connecting all-wheel drive is able to help drive enough difficult area way, and the excellent geometric cross-country ability of the body will allow you to storm the serious relief of the natural landscape.

The price of the new Hyundai ix35 2013-2014 with a modified appearance, more quality salon and modernized technical part for Russian motorists it starts from quite democratic and competitive 899 thousand rubles - the cost of the basic Start package for Hyundai ix35 (2.0 149.6 hp 6 manual transmission 2WD).
Crossover ix35 with a gasoline engine and all-wheel drive 4WD, depending on the level of equipment with options, costs from 1059 rubles to 1339 thousand rubles.
The Hyundai AI 35 diesel is estimated from 1,179 thousand rubles for a crossover with a 136 horsepower engine to 1,379 thousand rubles for a car with 184 strong engine in the most saturated configuration Travel.

So, I went through the next TO-45000 and decided to write another story.

MOT cost the "standard" 10t.rub. As usual, the service offered additional services, such as those offered last time. In addition, they offered to change the brake pads. Like, the mileage is high, it's time to change. But they did not look at the pads themselves. They turned out to be in excellent condition, which I can’t say about the brake discs ... The protrusion along the edge turned out to be large. I would prefer frequent replacement pads rather than discs. It turned out that the handbrake is not automatically adjusted in any way. A strange manual adjustment procedure worth 1,500 rubles ...

By the car itself. On the driver and passenger doors, just below the glazing, I found two swellings of paint. There were definitely no chips there (although the chips themselves do not rust). I found a cobweb of open rust on the inside of the trunk lid, in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe castle, on a welded point, exactly where the seal lies. I will claim under warranty.

Strengths:

• At this price, I don't see any merit. In Germany, for example, cars of this brand are 30% cheaper. Therefore, despite high flow they buy fuel there. But only

Weak sides:

• Not good successful model, in general, in comparison with the same jerboa

Yesterday, 12/12/2013, TO-15000 passed. It cost 8500r (7300r base price) with a 10% discount with a replacement air filter(optional), which, for some reason, is supposed to be replaced every 45,000 km. On service station I was offered (for money, of course) the following services:

Hi all.

For a long time I tried to find a spoonful of honey so that the review was complete ... But, only negative ... So, in order.

On this moment The mileage of the car is about 66,000 km. At 60,000 km, as expected, another MOT was completed at the OD and cost almost 20,000 rubles. In addition to the regulations, the wiper blades were replaced (about 1400 each) windshield. It turned out that these brushes are able to perform their function for about a month. Then they begin to smear and skip ... Definitely you should not buy original wipers. The usual frame.osh from @shan for 160 rubles per brush lasts at least a season.

Hi all.

That ran 30,000km in less than a year. Since my last review, I have not changed my attitude to the car - I would not buy this car for myself. Well, or not for that kind of money ... Now more ...

Recently passed TO-30000. It cost 9 thousand. rub. I always change the air filter, even if not according to the regulations. Again they offered. services in the form of wheel alignment, but only in order to “stir up” the bolts in the suspension “otherwise they will turn sour”. ... After MOT, it seems like the car went better ... But the sound of the engine became louder. Now, at XX, the sound is like not from a foreign car for more than lam ...

Review Hyundai ix35 2.0i CVVT 4WD (Hyundai AiX 35) 2010

Auto faster for the city. Beautiful, dynamic, quiet and comfortable. Satisfies all my needs. Fishing trip or road - please. Of course, without fanaticism. Chassis, although it rattles in a factory way, but with music it is tolerable. Plenty of space in the trunk too.

As for me, very easy to manage: brakes, steering wheel. You have to get used to the automatic transmission and gas, albeit not for long. Although not the top, but a lot of all sorts useful options: heating everything, usb, bluetooth, etc. Halogen shines quite well.

The downside is their MONDO stances and back row seating when the car is dirty due to its aerodynamics. " Design features, what is “Knocking from the front? — Anther and bump stop. Knock from behind!” — on cars 2009-11 change racks to improved under warranty.

What will happen in 2019: expensive cars and disputes with the government

Due to the growth of VAT and the unclear future of state support programs for the car market, new cars in 2019 will continue to rise in price. We found out how auto companies will negotiate with the government and what new products they will bring.

However, this state of affairs only stimulated buyers to make decisions more quickly, and the VAT increase planned for 2019 from 18 to 20% was an additional argument. Leading auto companies told Autonews.ru what tests await the industry in 2019.

Numbers: sales are up for 19 consecutive months

According to the results of sales of new cars in November 2018, the Russian car market showed an increase of 10% - thus, the market continues to grow for 19 months in a row. According to the Association of European Businesses (AEB), in November, 167,494 new cars were sold in Russia, and in total from January to November, automakers sold 1,625,351 cars - 13.7% more than last year.

According to the AEB, December sales results should be comparable to November. And according to the results of the whole year, it is expected that the market will reach the figure of 1.8 million cars and light vehicles sold. commercial vehicles, which would mean a 13 percent plus.

In 2018, sales of Lada (324,797 units, +16%), Kia (209,503, +24%), Hyundai (163,194, +14%), VW (94,877, +14%), grew most noticeably in 2018 according to data from January to November. 20%), Toyota (96,226, +15%), Skoda (73,275, +30%). He began to reach lost positions in Russian Mitsubishi(39,859 units, +93%). Despite the growth, Subaru (7026 units, +33%) and Suzuki (5303, +26%) lagged behind the brand.

Sales improved in BMW (32,512 units, +19%), Mazda (28,043, +23%), Volvo (6854, +16%). The premium sub-brand from Hyundai - Genesis "shot" (1626 units, 76%). Stable in terms of Renault (128,965, +6%), Nissan (67,501, +8%) Ford (47,488, +6%), Mercedes-Benz (34,426, +2%), Lexus (21,831, +4%) and Land Rover (8 801, +9%).

Despite the positive figures, the total Russian market remain low. According to the Avtostat agency, historically the market showed the maximum value in 2012 - then 2.8 million cars were sold, in 2013 sales decreased to 2.6 million. In 2014, the crisis came only towards the end of the year, so there was no dramatic drop in the market - the Russians managed to buy 2.3 million cars at "old" prices. But in 2015, sales collapsed to 1.5 million units. The negative dynamics continued in 2016, when sales sank to a record low of 1.3 million vehicles. The revival of demand occurred only in 2017, when the Russians bought 1.51 million new cars. Thus, before the initial figures of the Russian automotive industry is still far away, as well as to the status of the first market in terms of sales in Europe, which Russia was prophesied in the pre-crisis years.

Representatives of auto companies interviewed by Autonews.ru believe that sales in 2019 will be comparable to the results of 2018: according to their estimates, Russians will buy the same number of cars or a little less. Most expect a failed January and February, after which sales will go up again. However, auto brands refuse official forecasts before the start of the new year.

“In 2019, the cars bought in the pre-crisis 2014 will be five years old already - for Russians this is a kind of psychological mark at which they are ready to think about replacing the car,” said Valery Tarakanov, marketing director of Kia, in an interview with Autonews.ru.

Prices: cars went up in price all year

New cars in Russia after the crisis of 2014 by November 2018 rose by an average of 66%, according to Avtostat. For 11 months of 2018, cars have become more expensive by 12% on average. The agency's experts came to the conclusion that auto companies have now almost won back the fall of the ruble against world currencies. But they stipulate that this does not mean a price freeze at all.

Inflation and an increase in the VAT rate from the beginning of 2019 - from 18% to 20% will contribute to a further rise in car prices. Representatives of auto companies in conversations with an Autonews.ru correspondent also do not hide the fact that the increase in VAT will directly affect the cost of cars, and from the very beginning of 2019, for example, this was confirmed by Renault, AvtoVAZ and Kia.

Discounts, bonuses and new prices: when is the best time to buy a car

“On the eve of the last quarter of the year, the Russian automotive market continued to show strong growth. However, this pleasant fact did not come as a surprise, given the tailwind in the sails of the entire retail sector, counting down the time until the VAT change. There is growing concern among market participants regarding the sustainability of demand in retail starting from January 2019,” explained Joerg Schreiber, Chairman of the AEB Automobile Manufacturers Committee.

At the same time, automakers hope that the ruble exchange rate will not change much against foreign currencies, which will help avoid price spikes.

State support programs: gave half as much

In 2018, two times less money was allocated to state support programs for the car market, popular with Russians, compared to 2017 - 34.4 billion rubles. instead of the previous 62.3 billion rubles. At the same time, only 7.5 billion rubles were spent on targeted programs designed specifically for motorists. We are talking about programs such as the "First Car" and " family car”, which apply to cars worth up to 1.5 million rubles.

The rest of the money was spent on more specific programs like Own Business and Russian Tractor. For development and production activities Vehicle with remote and autonomous control spent 1.295 billion to stimulate the acquisition of land electric transport- 1.5 billion, for measures to stimulate production in the Far East (we are talking about compensating transportation costs for car companies) - 0.5 billion rubles, for the purchase of gas-engine equipment - 2.5 billion rubles.

Thus, the government, as promised, continues to systematically reduce the volume of state support for the industry. For comparison: in 2014, only 10 billion rubles. went to recycling programs and trade-in. In 2015, 43 billion rubles were allocated to support the automotive industry, of which 30% was also spent on recycling and trade-in. In 2016, spending on state support for the automotive industry reached 50 billion rubles, of which half was also spent on similar targeted programs.

As for 2019, the situation with state support remains. So, in the middle of the year, the Ministry of Industry and Trade announced that the First Car and Family Car programs were extended until 2020 inclusive. They should allow buying new cars at a 10-25% discount. However, automakers claim that they still have not received any confirmation of the extension of the programs - the Ministry of Industry and Trade has not been able to clarify the situation and respond to Autonews.ru's request for a month.

Meanwhile, at a recent meeting with automakers, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak said that the volumes state support domestic automotive industry five times the revenue from this industry to the budget.

“Now it is 9 rubles per 1 ruble of revenues to the budget system from the automotive industry. This is with a disposal fee, and without disposal fee- 5 rubles of state support,” he said.

Kozak explained that these figures should make one think about the conditions under which state support measures should be provided to the auto industry, adding that the vast majority of business sectors do not receive any support from the state at all.

Disputes with the government: auto companies are unhappy

In 2018, disputes between auto companies and the government over the conditions for further work on the market intensified. The reason was the expiring terms of the agreement on industrial assembly, which gives car companies that have invested in the localization of production a tangible set of benefits, including tax benefits. This situation primarily means that manufacturers, in the face of uncertainty, may postpone the launch of new models, which, by the way, threatened Renault. In addition, it is more difficult for companies to predict their pricing policy. At the moment, the government, represented by the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Ministry of Economics, has still not been able to develop a unified strategy.

Until recently, the departments offered various tools to replace the ending decree on industrial assembly No. 166. Thus, the Ministry of Industry and Trade actively lobbied for the signing of individual special investment contracts (SPICs) between the government and car companies. The document provides for a certain set of benefits, which is determined separately with each signatory, depending on the amount of investment, including in R&D and export development. This tool has been repeatedly criticized by car executives for being non-transparent and too rigid in terms of further investment.

The Ministry of Economics, in turn, opposed it for a long time and insisted that only those who produce high-tech products, which cars do not belong to, can work under SPICs. The FAS also joined the negotiations with the position that companies should not form alliances and consortiums, that is, they should not unite to sign SPICs. At the same time, it was precisely this idea of ​​combining brands to obtain a synergistic effect that began to be promoted in the Ministry of Industry and Trade many years ago.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak had to intervene in the conflict situation, he created a special working group, invited representatives of all auto companies to it and also expressed a number of his own ideas. But even this did not defuse the situation - auto brands complained about newcomers, including Chinese companies that could count on state support from scratch, about their unwillingness to invest too much in R&D and export organization.

At present, according to Autonews.ru sources participating in the negotiations, the majority is on the side of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, and a number of auto companies are already preparing to sign SPICs in the new year. And this means new investments, projects and models, the appearance of which can revive the Russian car market.

New models: there will be many premieres in 2019

Despite accurate forecasts from automakers, most of them are preparing a lot of new products for Russia. For example, Volvo Autonews.ru said that they would bring new Volvo S60 and Volvo V60 Cross Country. Suzuki will launch updated SUV Vitara and new compact SUV Jimny.

Skoda will bring the updated Superb and Karoq crossover to Russia next year, Volkswagen will start Russian sales liftback Arteon, as well as new modifications of Polo and Tiguan. AvtoVAZ will roll out Lada Vesta sport, Granta Cross and promises a few more updates.

One of the most interesting cars, produced by Asian countries, is Hyundai. X35 is the successor to such a model as Hyundai Tucson. Why is this particular machine of particular interest, and not any other? Because to create such Korean car, like the Hyundai X35, the manufacturers spent three whole years and about $225 million.

About the start of production and development

As you can already understand, this car is not cheap. The company really spent a large number of money for its production. "Hyundai X35" was designed by a whole team of developers. In the process of its creation, European specialists from the Center for Technology and Hyundai design located in Russelsheim. Americans, Koreans, Germans and others - almost everyone worked on the development this car. The only way to reduce costs is the platform. It was adopted from the predecessor of this model. True, they did not leave it without modernization. The car has become much larger in terms of dimensions, and as a result, the interior has turned out to be more spacious. Now five adults can easily fit there, and a sixth can easily squeeze into the back row. In general, the keywords that can be used to characterize the Hyundai X35 are constant comfort and coziness.

Design

So, what can you tell us about this car? The car "Hyundai X35" is a follower of the model called Tuscon, only much larger. True, the trunk became lower by 8 centimeters. What's the rest? The design is built on the principle of using "flowing lines". The look is sporty and elegant. This instantly grabs the eye.
