Previously, only fairly wealthy people could afford this “automatic”, since cars with powerful engines in fancy trim levels were equipped with such boxes. Now they even put automatic transmissions on state employees. Including domestic! Today, the minimum price of a car with two pedals is less than 400,000 rubles ...
A budget car that has changed its name three times in its history. Initially, the model was called Daewoo Lanos, then Chevrolet Lanos. After that, she received a Ukrainian “registration permit” and began to be produced by the Zaporozhye Automobile Plant under the name ZAZ Chance. Frankly speaking, not only the name changed: along with it, many elements from Korean became Ukrainian - not without loss of quality. Apparently, this is also why a very inexpensive car did not become a bestseller - more modern "state employees" from Renault, VW and the same Daewoo (I'm not even talking about Lada) did not let the noisy and rudely executed "zazu" shoot out ...
But still, at the moment, "Chance" remains the cheapest car with an "automatic" in our market.
Engine: 1.5 l, 101 l. With.
349,900 rubles (+80,000 rubles to the basic version).
The VAZ "state employee" replaced in the Lada lineup the cars of the "classic" family that had finally gone down in history - and became the heir to their glory. In all senses. The first modern Russian car with automatic transmission received a 4-speed “automatic” from Jatco, which is a modernized version of the box that was installed back in 1989 on the Nissan Sunny. During the year that the “automated” Granta is available for sale, it managed to rise in price: from 373,300 to 385,200 rubles.
You can’t call it a breakthrough: simple, or rather simplified, without any frills. So-so managed, so-so rides, so-so interior, so-so design. On the other hand, a sedan, on the other hand, is sold throughout the country, most of whose inhabitants cannot afford more expensive "automatic machines" ...
Engine: 1.6 l, 98 l. With.
Starting price of the version with automatic transmission: 385,200 rubles (+106,200 rubles to the basic version).
3. Lada Kalina 2
Class A car, which is, in fact, the third generation of Daewoo Matiz and occupies the second place in its class in popularity in Russia. comes to our market with two engines, but the "automatic", oddly enough, is available only with the "weakest" of the two, 1.0-liter. But such a Spark costs only a little more than the VAZ Kalina 2 ...
Otherwise, the smallest Chevrolet is a typical urban runabout. Very modest in size, without a trunk, but nimble, not a competitor in the competition "who is the first at the traffic lights", but more or less reliable .. A good car for novice drivers without pretensions. And with a gun, it’s also suitable for the fair sex, who are not too confident behind the wheel.
Engine: 1.0 l, 68 l. With.
Starting price of the version with automatic transmission: 446,000 rubles (+30,000 rubles to the basic version).
A new golf-class sedan from the Uzbek company Uz-Daewoo, which is a converted version of the Chevrolet Lacetti model, discontinued at the end of last year. With a starting price of 399,000 rubles, Gentra has become the most affordable car in its class on our market. At the same time, the basic equipment is by no means “empty”: there is air conditioning, two airbags, a height-adjustable steering column, power windows for the front and rear doors.
Gentra just comes to us, and it is not easy to say what place it will take in our life - there are few driver reviews. The Uzbek manufacturer has not been seen in the production of junk - there is always a demand for his simple but reliable machines. Another question is that the competition in the segment has grown oh so much in recent years.
Engine: 1.5 l, 105 l. With.
Starting price of the version with automatic transmission: 449,000 rubles (+50,000 rubles to the basic version).
6 Citroen C1/Peugeot 107
The first in our rating are "100% foreign cars" made without much regard for our market and our preferences. Therefore, very stylish and very small. Like Spark, it is a completely urban option, optimal for traveling to work and taking the child to school.
In order to reduce costs and, accordingly, prices, manufacturers have completely unified the design of cars (with the exception of some details in the design of the front end) and the chassis. And the suspension and steering were completely borrowed from the Toyota Yaris II generation. Since the beginning of this year, restyled versions of cars have been sold in Russia. As an alternative to the "mechanics", both cars are equipped not with a traditional "automatic", but with a robotic manual gearbox, which requires a special approach to operation ...
Engine: 1.0 l, 68 l. With.
Starting price of versions with automatic transmission. Citroen C1: 471,000 rubles for the three-door version (+67,000 rubles to the basic version), 479,000 rubles. - for a five-door (+23,000 rubles to the basic version). Peugeot 107: 484,000 rubles for the three-door version (+77,000 rubles to the basic version), 494,000 rubles. - for a five-door (+79,000 rubles to the basic version).
7. Renault Logan/Sandero
So much has been said and written about that I don’t even want to repeat myself. In short - not very aesthetic, but roomy (for their size), reliable, easy to manage and operate. And therefore - popular in Russia. The Logan sedan and the Sandero hatchback developed by Renault together with Dacia became the first models of the Romanian brand revived by the French. In Russia, Logan became a pioneer in the class of budget foreign cars: it was him that the Hyundai Solaris and Volkswagen Polo Sedan that followed him began to equal. Last year, the second generation Logan and Sandero were introduced. The start of their sales in Russia is scheduled for the end of this year.
Engine: 1.6 l, 103 l. With.
Starting price of the version with automatic transmission: 473,000* rubles for Sandero (+109,000 rubles to the basic version), 500,000 rubles for Logan (+151,000 rubles to the basic version).
*) Since March 2013, Renault Sandero Expression with automatic transmission is available only if the Air Conditioning option is ordered for 25,000 rubles.
The car is a fantastic success of the Korean manufacturer, which took into account all the needs of a mass Russian driver with certain capabilities. A budget car built by Koreans on the basis of the fourth generation Accent and designed specifically for countries with actively developing markets, we sell hundreds of thousands. Because beautiful, reliable, modern. Suitable for a small family, it will take you to a not too abandoned dacha, and what else do you need ... Do you want a more powerful motor, you want a weaker one, you want a "show-off" package, you want a modest one. The choice is yours.
If anyone does not know, "Russian" ones are produced at the Hyundai-Kia plant near St. Petersburg according to the full production cycle. At the same plant in St. Petersburg, the “co-platform” Kia Rio is produced, but with the “automatic” Rio it costs much more than Solaris.
Engines: 1.4 l, 107 l. With.; 1.6 l, 123 l. With.
Starting price of the version with automatic transmission: 480,000 rubles for the hatchback version, 494,000 rubles. - for a sedan (+35,000 to the basic version, regardless of body type).
Cobalt - according to the first sensations - the same Logan, the differences between them are purely taste, while driving is minimal. But unlike Logan, Chevrolet has not yet received the glory of "tested" and "reliable".
Engine: 1.5 l, 105 l. With.
Starting price of the version with automatic transmission: 503,000 rubles (+59,000 rubles to the basic version).
Resume website
As you can see, the “automatic” box today in Russia is not a luxury at all, but a completely affordable option. Moreover, the choice of cars with automatic transmission is very wide, even in the segment up to 500,000 rubles!
As our tests show, the “automatic” on such cars is just an opportunity to get rid of the need to work with the left foot and “pull the handle”. Do not expect enchanting speed and lulling smoothness. Most of the transmissions on the list are outdated by modern standards. To pay extra money for them or not is a personal matter for everyone ...
In our male environment, it has always been believed that if a woman gets behind the wheel of a car, then it should be some kind of miniature car, for example, a Mini Cooper or a Fiat 500. But most often, based on the size of our own wallet, we get rid of those who want steer the beautiful half by buying a budget Daewoo Matiz. Meanwhile, female motorists have their own, fundamentally different from our, male, view of what kind of car a real woman should drive. Today we will talk about the cars that the representatives of the beautiful half of humanity dream of.
_____________________________
There is an abyss between reality and dreams in the choice of cars for most of us women. But no one forbade us to dream, so let's start.
Most women, with compact hatchbacks in bright colors, would prefer an SUV. Of the achievable dreams, the first line of our rating is shared by Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Tuscon, Suzuki Grand Vitara, Nissan Quashqai, Nissan Juke. Dreams more distant Lexus RX, BMW X3 and X5, Infinity EX, Mercedes GLK, and Range Rover Sport, chosen by Vladimir.
We can go on and on, since parquet SUVs are a fashionable trend in the modern automotive market. Each of these cars is worthy of its own laudatory ode, although some of them are completely different in terms of user and driving characteristics, but nevertheless, they are all wonderful modern cars.
Further dreams are overshadowed by harsh discussions about the budget for a new iron horse, but let's say that in our dream everything is fine to the end and the budget issue is not a question for us. In this case, if you are not a car gourmet or an expert, then choose purely in a feminine way: which car you liked more. All of them are well equipped and quite reliable.
______________________________
The fact that women choose a car only for its bright design and color has long been a disproved stereotype. Yes, the first impression is created by looking at the smooth or frilly lines of the body, the shape of the headlights of the car, and, of course, the color. But almost immediately the questions follow: how many airbags are in the car, what is its ground clearance, engine power and maximum speed? All this suggests that women have become much more practical in choosing a car. And this is taken into account by the manufacturers of "iron horses", which are created specifically in the expectation that they will be chosen by a customer demanding design and technical characteristics.
I must say that it is a difficult task to rank the most coveted cars by women. After all, you may like the Mini Coupe and the same Range Rover Evouqe. And the future owner of the car will vote, most likely with a wallet, and her choice will differ markedly from her preferences. Therefore, we decided to divide our rating into two parts. In the first we will talk about the top five best cars for women - according to automakers. And in the second - we will hear the preferences of the women themselves: we will ask them to name the five most desirable cars.
So, number one is the Mini Cooper. Moreover, all models of this brand are produced for the female target audience, even the slightly brutal Countryman. By the way, it was he who became the embodiment of women's dreams of a stylish, powerful car with good cross-country ability.
Second place goes to Mitsubishi Lancer. It is moderately powerful, and its aggressive design catches the eye. It will never be said about a woman driving a Lancer that she is quiet - how could a quiet woman pacify this predatory car?
On the third line - Fiat 500. Italian "baby", and that says it all. Although no: many of its owners, according to the manufacturers, would like the car to be “more charged” - and therefore they gave it to the Abarth tuning studio for improvement.
Fourth place was occupied by the Nissan Quashqai crossover - a sort of compact fortress on wheels, briskly climbing the city brows.
And the fifth line of the rating is occupied by the dynamic Range Rover Sport - a suitable machine for taking a large family to country picnics.
_____________________________
Expert opinion Elena Lisovskaya: Range Rover Sport is, of course, good, but if you still return to reality, and you count the money, in my opinion, it’s still worth starting your driving experience with a not very expensive, but reliable car. Let's look at a few options:
Daewoo Matiz. The cheapest car with an automatic transmission (although, unfortunately, cars with automatic transmission have already been discontinued). A good option for a small budget: the cost of buying and maintaining a car is minimal. The main disadvantages are the lack of airbags and the poor quality of metal and painting: Matiz shamelessly rust a year after the start of operation.
Hyundai Getz. Unpretentious and unpretentious little car, pleasant in all respects. There are no nuances, the car is reliable and inexpensive. Unless bumpers with a change of season will delight you with pieces of peeling paint, it’s worth touching them a little in city traffic.
Skoda Fabia. Previous Fabia models, in my opinion, were a misalliance: manufacturers wanted too much for a car that surprised with its internal and external asceticism. The modern model is quite pleasant and worthy of attention: prettiness has been added to the entourage, and Volkswagen reliability has been added in operation. It's a pity, automatic transmission cars are rare and expensive.
Peugeot 207. Funny french kid. If its unusual appearance captivated you, then remember the nuances: the maintenance of the "French" is expensive, and there is also an opinion that they "do not know how to break", that is, having started to break, three years after the start of operation they can no longer stop.
Nissan Micra. The reliability and convenience of this car has been honed from model to model throughout its 25-year history, and now a bright, unusual design has been added to this.
Toyota Yaris. Toyota is reliable. Yaris is a breakthrough from classic shapes to attractive design. If it suits you, then the rest is just pluses. For example, security. Rare car awarded all 5 stars on the EuroNCUP scale.
Ford Fiesta. The calm rustic design is deceptive: inside the Fiesta is very complete. For example, there are configurations with a color monitor, opening doors without a key and starting the engine with a button. The rest of the Ford is reliable and not very expensive.
And these are just some of the typical female cars that we see on the roads most often. The list of conceptually similar cars is long: almost every manufacturer offers us A- or B-class cars, and the choice is a matter of your priorities and the thickness of your wallet. Separately, I would like to point out MINI, Volkswagen Beetle and Smart, because for many these unusual cars are objects of dreams. Remember, all three cars are quite expensive to maintain, and you won’t find spare parts for Zhuk and Smart either.
And I also deduced for myself the formula of a “female” car: these are not at all the cars that women prefer to drive, but those that men are embarrassed to drive ...
Many women, despite the stereotype that has developed among the people, cope with driving a car perfectly, and in part, this is the merit of a vehicle that is correctly selected for the individual qualities of a girl.
Also, when choosing a budget car, do not forget that each of the fair sex appreciates convenience and sophistication in a car.
It is these small cars for women up to 200 thousand rubles that were collected in today's ranking. Each car got into the top based on sales statistics and girls' opinions about the most reliable and convenient means of transportation around the city.
Where to start choosing a car for a woman?
The first thing to decide is this. Most often, girls choose a hatchback or a compact coupe.
Girls find these bodies as attractive and easy to drive as possible, especially when it comes to parking.
The second step is the color. At first glance, a simple solution, but it is with him that girls most often have problems, especially since each brand has its own color palette, so the vehicle may like it externally, but the desired color is not provided.
When choosing a car color, keep in mind that darker shades are less visible on the road, especially on cloudy and rainy days. Therefore, especially if the vehicle is miniature, it makes sense to think about choosing a color such as red, yellow or white.
When choosing a car brand, you should pay attention to the level of safety and technical data. The cost of spare parts and the propensity of the machine to break down will also play a fundamental role in the future.
As a result, the following factors can be included in the list of criteria for up to 200 thousand rubles:
- Cozy and comfortable salon.
- Low fuel consumption.
- Low maintenance cost.
- Safety.
- Aesthetic appearance.
- Bright color.
- Affordable operating cost.
- Dimensions.
- body type.
- Controllability.
It is advisable not to consider buying a used car, but if there are no options, it should not be older than 2006-2007. Since it is unlikely that a woman will be able to figure out a breakdown if she suddenly happens on the road, and in the case of old cars, this cannot be avoided.
The seller can simply hide problems that may appear in the first month of driving.
TOP 8 best small cars for women 2017

The appearance of the car is also attractive, plus a large number of bright colors are available. Matiz is great for driving in city traffic, it is easy to park in it and drive through narrow openings given its fairly high level of maneuverability.
A big plus of the car is that for 200 thousand rubles it can be purchased in a new condition.

Lifan Smily I
Lifan Smily I gained its popularity and place in today's ranking because of its similarity with Mini Cooper. This car comes from China, it has 4 doors and a rather charismatic appearance, for which Russian women fell in love with.
The body color of the car can be one, and the roof another, this is one of the features that captivates at first sight.
Definitely, it is far from the build quality and technical data of the MiniCooper, but the affordable price and the ability to save on maintenance make this car one of the most attractive.
Chery Kimo
Kimo has a 1.3-liter engine, but at the same time it produces 83 hp. With. A manual transmission is included as standard, which confuses many girls a little, for them the automatic is much more convenient.
Considering that the car is Chinese, it is assembled with sufficient quality, has good maneuverability and tenaciously, as for its class, keeps on the road.

Watch a video review of the Chery Kimo car:
Chevrolet Spark
Chevrolet Spark one of the most beautiful cars of today's rating.
The car looks especially attractive in light green and white. After entering the Russian market, Spark immediately got a lot of female attention.
The car is an excellent solution for the city, it is well managed, has a modern appearance, an economical engine and a comfortable interior.
It’s impossible to buy a new model for 200 thousand rubles, but given the build quality, you can safely buy a supported Spark, but before that, carefully checking the car in the service.
Peugeot 107
Peugeot began producing the 107 hatchback back in 2007. During this time, the car has changed in many ways. The car has one of the fundamental features that women value so much, it is dissimilarity with other cars.
Peugeot 107 perfect for a girl who wants to emphasize her individuality. For 200 thousand rubles, you can purchase a model of 2007-2011. The appearance of the car is universal, it is perfect for both young girls and older business women.
When choosing a color, you should pay attention to the models of yellow, white and red.
The popularity of these models among car enthusiasts with brilliance indicates that size really does not matter.
If you ask automakers, none of them will give an intelligible answer to the question of what a women's car is. At the same time, any girl is able to distinguish a male model from a female one at a glance, even if she has never been behind the wheel. It's so simple: a woman's car should be comfortable, attractive, economical, safe and reliable, that is, combine only the most positive features ever put into a four-wheeled vehicle by a person.
WomanJournal carefully studied the offer of car dealerships and compiled its own top ten truly female models. Let the manufacturers be silent - we know for sure which machine is best for a modern girl.
HYUNDAI GETZ
Hyundai Getz first appeared in Russia in 2002. Since then, this small car has won the hearts of many thousands of girls. Getz attracts with its compactness and reliability. Small on the outside, quite spacious on the inside. The economical model spends from 4.5 to 6 liters of gasoline per 100 km and is quite frisky at the same time.
Airbags with multi-phase deployment are responsible for the safety of the lives of passengers. Their impact is much softer than traditional ones. In side collisions, the Getz fortress will be given by steel beams built into the doors.
By the way, the name Hyundai Getz is part of the advertising slogan "Get more for less."
DAEWOO MATIZ
The appearance of this little eye cannot but cause a smile. One of the most popular "kids" on our roads is Daewoo Matiz. However, first impressions are always deceiving. From the outside, the Matiz seems tiny, but that feeling is lost in the cabin. Four adults can comfortably fit here. True, it is desirable not to be very tall, otherwise the legs will be cramped.
The small size of the car requires more safety for the driver. Therefore, there is a special reinforcement on the Matiz roof, and special power beams are built into the doors to prevent jamming in the event of a side impact.
The plastic fuel tank will prevent gasoline from leaking and igniting if the car is overturned. ABS, two airbags and a powerful braking system for the small dimensions of the car are responsible for the life of the driver and his passengers.
The Matiz salon is quite modest, but the cost of the car does not imply additional frills. Matiz has another task - to become a faithful assistant in movement. And with it, he copes with all the agility of his liter engine.
PEUGEOT 206
Peugeot 206 – this is a real fighter, which is equally good for city driving with a speed limit, and for a free country track. In addition, it is universal: the capabilities of the 206th will delight a novice motorist and will not disappoint an experienced one. It is responsive, with sharp steering, a reliable braking system and excellent dynamics. But over 130 km / h is not worth driving. There is a feeling of weightlessness, and on the road it is better to feel grip.
More than a year ago, the “fawn” began to be produced in two types: a sedan was added to the hatchback. In any body, this is a godsend for motorists who manage to turn a car into a motor home. Despite its relatively small dimensions, the model has an amazing capacity.
MAZDA 2
Russian motorists saw the nimble beauty Mazda 2 for the first time in 2007. This is a model for those who are used to a combination of powerful drive and elegant design. Despite its relatively small dimensions, it drives quite nimbly. "Dvushka" is one of the most economical cars in the B-class: a 1.5-liter engine consumes 5.9 liters per 100 km in the combined cycle.
Mazda 2 only pretends to be a baby. Inside it is very comfortable and convenient. In the trunk, you can easily place a large suitcase or a baby stroller.
By the way, this car is distinguished by a unique function: you can open it without taking the key out of your pocket or bag on your shoulder, by simply pressing the button on the door handle.
NISSAN MICRA
Nissan Micra belongs to the category of cars that immediately set up in a friendly way. Baby Micra – for those girls who are not used to being in the shadows.
This is facilitated by both the unique design of the model and its dynamic characteristics. Engine power in 80 – 88 HP will allow you not to trail behind, but to confidently ride among the first. This, of course, is about reasonable speeds.
The status of a small car will not pull a lot of money out of your wallet for fuel. Micra spends an average of 5.5 liters per 100 km.
At first glance, it may seem that this car has an uncomfortable interior. Responsibly declare: nonsense. Tested: equally comfortable in both the front and rear seats. And thanks to the compact size of a city car and the smallest turning radius in its class (4.6 m), the Micra is easy to park even on busy city streets.
FORD FIESTA
It seems that the ideas for the Ford Fiesta were drawn from the catwalks of the Fashion Week. In profile, it resembles a sports coupe. It is simultaneously predatory, elegant, sexy and sophisticated car. Even the colors of the new Fiesta seem to have left the pages of glossy magazines.
Stylish and attractive elements adorn both the body design and the interior of the car. However, in addition to the beauty of the Fiesta, technologies that make the life of a motorist more comfortable are also distinguished. For example, parking sensors, automatic switching on of external lighting, windshield wipers with a rain sensor, soft gradual switching off of interior lighting, electric folding mirrors, heated windshield and climate control.
The safety of Fiesta passengers is provided by front and side airbags, anti-lock braking system ABS, which protects the car on wet and slippery road surfaces.
TOYOTA YARIS
The five-door subcompact Toyota Yaris first appeared in Russia in 2006. And immediately won loyal fans with her briskness, maneuverability, as well as both flirtatious and elegant appearance.
This baby is a godsend even with a relatively limited budget. Already in the basic configuration, that is, for the very initial cost, you can purchase a car with ABS, seven airbags (including to protect the driver's knees), protective bars in the doors, double seals to improve sound insulation and air conditioning.
Power Yaris - 87 "horses" - enough for trips out of town. And in urban conditions, this car can be put a bold plus. Small dimensions allow you to turn around in cramped conditions and park where a regular mid-size car simply won’t fit.
The Yaris feature is in the multimodal gearbox. It combines manual and automatic transmissions. If you like the "handbrake", choose the "M" mode. Fans of the “machine” are recommended the “E” mode, and those who choose a sporty type of ride will like the accelerated “Es”. One car, three driving styles. Not in every small car you will find such a feature.
OPEL CORSA
The new Opel can be tailored to the individual needs of each driver. If you like to pedal in your free time, you should know that a pop-out console is hidden in the rear bumper, on which a couple of bicycles are attached.
Those who choose Golf know exactly why they do it the way they do. The car brakes reliably, it is easy to drive, the sound insulation is excellent, the dynamics are excellent, the grip on the road is excellent even on wet surfaces, besides, the Golf has very comfortable seats, which do not break your back even on long trips.
The safety of the driver and passengers will be taken care of by front and side airbags, curtain airbags to protect the heads of front and rear passengers. The driver's knees are also protected.
SKODA FABIA
In the second generation, the Skoda Fabia has risen to a completely different level of quality. The appearance has changed for the better - now the beauty Fabia remotely looks like the legendary Mini Cooper.
Fabia was originally conceived as a female model. She has soft rounded features of the body without any hint of aggression. The feeling of femininity is enhanced in the cabin. There are a lot of compartments where it is convenient to put various little things. This ensures that your car will not be cluttered with an abundance of different items.
On the road, Fabia will please with good soundproofing in the cabin, clear gear shifting, low fuel consumption - about 5 liters per 100 km.
Double front and side airbags, side curtains will take care of your safety. If an accident does occur, the “emergency gang” and the light inside the cabin will automatically turn on, the central lock will be unlocked and the fuel supply from the fuel tank will stop to prevent fire.

Most women are excellent drivers, which is great for a modern family when there is another driver. Having her own car, a woman manages to cope with her daily activities and at the same time looks great.
