What characteristics to rely on when choosing an inexpensive used car? First of all, it is the price, practicality, reliability and liquidity. These are the heroes of this review, cars: Chevrolet Lacetti and Renault Logan. Both models belong to the economy class and have proven themselves well in our country.
Most owners leave only positive feedback, but not without reasonable criticism.
Start of production of the model in 2004. It has established itself as a very reliable, "indestructible" car. For most owners, the first non-critical breakdowns begin only after a hundred thousand kilometers, and many overcome the milestone without any problems. 200 thousand km, and only after this mark are they faced with any interference in the car. Unfortunately, apart from the sedan body, Renault Logan cannot offer anything else, although the station wagon body would come in very handy for such a practical car.
Engines: 8-valve 1.4 and 1.6 liters, 16-valve 1.6 liters (K4M), cars with this engine are most preferable. In other countries, Logan is also equipped with a diesel engine with a volume of 1.5 liters and a 1.0-liter engine that runs on both gasoline and ethyl alcohol, and the engine power and dynamics are higher on alcohol than on gasoline.
Motors are structurally simple and reliable, undemanding to fuel quality. The timing belt drive, when broken, the valves are bent on all Renault Logan engines. On motors 1.4 (8 cells) And 1.6 (8 cells) there are no hydraulic lifters, which requires valve adjustment (approx. once every 30,000 km). Hydraulic compensators are installed on the K4M 1.6 engine (16 cells), valve adjustment is not required.
Gearboxes are installed: mechanical 5-speed, less often automatic 4-speed. Both boxes are quite reliable, the oil is filled for the entire service life, although it is still recommended to change it, once every 60,000 km.
The front suspension is made according to the type MacPherson, rear, semi-independent beam. Overall very reliable and easy to care for. 100 and more thousand km. First of all, they will require replacement, thrust bearings, rear shock absorbers. Spare parts are inexpensive and affordable, repairs do not cause any difficulties and it can be done, completely, by yourself in the garage.
For the cheapness and simplicity of the cabin, as well as for the lack of sound insulation, only the lazy did not reproach Renault Logan. This is the main and very big minus of the model, here the company saved both on the quality of materials and on ergonomics in general.
Advantages and disadvantages:
- pros: price, "indestructible" suspension, reliability, engine life, galvanized body, high ground clearance, good cross-country ability, price and availability of spare parts.
- Minuses: lack of comfort, low noise insulation, cheap plastic, weak stove and air conditioning, poor dynamics, high fuel consumption of 8-valve engines.
Start of production in 2002, in South Korean GM. In Russia, it was assembled in Kaliningrad. Budget car class "C", well-established in our country. Produced in sedan, hatchback, station wagon bodies. The body color cannot be called bad, but due to the very thin metal, regular chips and dents cannot be avoided, and rusting sills and rear arches are a typical problem of GM cars, but it does not appear on all specimens and on cars of about 10 years and older.
Lacetti was equipped with 3 engines, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8 liters. All engines are quite reliable, of the 4th ecological class, they are powered by 95 gasoline, but they easily digest 92. The main problems of these engines are valve cover gasket leakage, the formation of soot on the valves, due to which the engine starts to work intermittently, it is treated by turning off the EGR valve and flashing the ECU.
Gearboxes were installed: 5-speed manual and 4-speed automatic. These units are time-tested and proven to be reliable. Gearboxes do not require any maintenance, the oil is filled for the entire service life, but domestic "servicemen" still recommend changing it once every 60,000 km.
Suspension front and rear independent, which has a good effect on the handling and comfort of the car. On average, the service life of the suspension elements 100 thousand km, which is a good indicator on our roads.
The interior is simple but pleasant, with comfortable seats that can be well settled on long trips, thanks to the long cushion. Finishing materials, although not expensive, are well fitted and do not cause unpleasant emotions. The cabin is quite spacious with good sound insulation for its class, the interior is simple, without any design solutions, which is inherent in all economy class cars.
Advantages and disadvantages:
- pros: low price, reliable engine, strong and comfortable suspension, roomy interior, comfortable seats, warm, galvanized body.
- Minuses: thin body iron, poor electrical wiring, poor quality interior plastic, poor sound insulation, ground clearance for our roads.
Outcome
When choosing between Renault Logan and Chevrolet Lacetti models, the price of which on the market, between models of one year, is an average of 50 thousand rubles, you need to take into account that both cars belong to the economy class, but Lacetti is class “C”, and Logan is one class lower - "IN".
Comparing the characteristics, for this small difference you can buy:
- The car is superior.
- The choice of body according to your needs and to your taste.
- Independent suspension, which significantly affects the handling of the car.
- Comfortable and warm interior.
- More powerful engine with equal volume.
These are the indicators that Renault Logan cannot boast of, and if you start from them, then Lacetti certainly wins here, but if, without relying on the above, look for the cheapest and most reliable option that, without causing trouble with repairs, will drive and carry, then in this respect Logan will give odds to the vast majority of brands on the Russian market. In any case, the choice always remains with the end user.
Since the Lacetti has been out of production for a long time, the comparison will be presented between the Chevrolet Lacetti and the second generation Renault Megane.
Both cars are aimed at a wide range of consumers, and. The cars are offered in three main body versions. These are hatchback, sedan and station wagon.
In technical terms, there is no fundamental difference between the cars. But the cars differ from each other in size, luggage compartment volume and comfort level for rear passengers. Plus, for quite natural reasons, changes are made to the exterior of the rear.
Depending on the touring version, the Megane and Lacetti can be excellent choices as an inexpensive used family car, a car for a novice driver, young and older categories of owners.
But in order to choose between these two cars, you need to compare them according to the key and most significant characteristics for the consumer. In addition to the exterior, interior and luggage compartment, the issues of technical equipment, operating cost and equipment will be considered separately.
Car features
Before making a comparison, you need to tell some details about the cars in question from the American and French brand.
The sedan was the first to appear in the Chevrolet Lacetti line, and then the hatchback and station wagon debuted. Moreover, all presentations were held in different car dealerships from 2002 to 2004. The sedan was introduced in Seoul as a successor to the once popular Daewoo Nubira. In Europe, Lacetti began to be sold in 2003, and the novelty reached Russia by 2004. Already in 2009, Lacetti was discontinued, as an heir appeared in the face of the Chevrolet Cruze. Although Lacetti was produced in Russia until 2012, in Uzbekistan the car stayed on the assembly line until 2014.
Chevrolet Lacetti is based on the J200 platform. The car received a fully independent suspension. MacPherson struts were placed in front, and a multi-link design settled in the back. It also attracts the fact that all the brakes are disc, and in front they are ventilated.
Renault Megane 2 generation was produced from 2002 to 2008. The machine is based on a front-wheel drive platform, has an independent front suspension and a semi-independent rear. If we compare Renault Megane of the second generation of Chevrolet Lacetti, then it is worth emphasizing the version from 2006. It was in 2006 that Renault carried out a large-scale modernization of the car. The refinement had a positive impact on safety, the interior and appearance have changed a bit. Technical characteristics were also touched upon, the list of equipment offered was significantly expanded.
Both cars look decent and deservedly in demand in the secondary market. But now we need to compare them in more detail.
Appearance
The choice between Chevrolet Lacetti or Renault Megane 2 largely depends on what you want to get and for what purpose you are purchasing a vehicle in the secondary market.
The front end of the Megane looks pretty good and relatively fresh considering the fact that the model is no longer in production. Moreover, Russian buyers are most attracted to the hatchback. In second place in popularity is the sedan, and the greatest demand is for the station wagon. A convertible is not worth taking into account at all, although such a Megane option was also available.
Appearance Lacetti is simple, but at the same time concise, focused on European consumers. Despite the participation of Italian designers in the development of the appearance of Lacetti, no solutions typical for cars from Italy were used here. It’s hard to find fault, because Lacetti gets beautiful and neat lines, nice optics, slightly swollen wheel arches, and wide glazing. Lacetti looks good in all body versions, including station wagon. But the van in the face of Megane 2 looks too heavy.
If we talk about the appearance, then we need to touch on the overall dimensions.
Let's start with the Chevrolet Lacetti. The sedan body has the following parameters:
- length 4515 mm;
- width 1725 mm;
- height 1445 mm;
- wheelbase 2600 mm.;
- ground clearance 162 mm.
If you take a hatchback from Chevrolet, get the following numbers:
- length 4295 mm;
- height 1445 mm;
- width 1725 mm;
- wheelbase 2600 mm.;
- clearance 162 mm.
And the wagon is:
- length 4580 mm;
- height 1460 mm;
- width 1725 mm;
- wheelbase 2600 mm.;
- ground clearance 162 mm.
French hatchback like this:
- length 4210 mm;
- height 1455 mm.;
- width 1775 mm;
- wheelbase 2625 mm.
Lacetti is perfect for the role of an inexpensive family car with a spacious interior, a good luggage compartment, a solid appearance and good content in the basic configuration. The same can be said about Renault Megane. But the second generation of the Megane model provides for higher fuel consumption and increased repair and maintenance costs compared to the competitor.
Both cars are actively sold on the domestic market and are assembled at Russian factories. They belong to the same class and are approximately the same in price, so the choice between them is not easy. We bring to your attention a visual overview of the main characteristics for greater clarity of the advantages and disadvantages of the machines mentioned.
Technical features of the models
In order not to get confused in assemblies and modifications, we will compare both cars with a sedan-type body.
About Renault Logan we can say the following:
- five-seater car;
- petrol engine with a capacity of 1.6 liters. and a power of 90 liters. With.;
- front-wheel drive, five-speed manual gearbox, also four-speed automatic;
- dimensions: 4250x1534 mm. (length and height);
- ground clearance: 155 mm.
Chevrolet Lacetti has almost the same set:
- five seats;
- engine capacity of 1.6 liters. and a capacity of 109 liters. With.;
- front-wheel drive and a five-speed manual gearbox, as well as an automatic four-speed;
- dimensions 4580x1460 mm. (length and height);
- ground clearance 145 mm.
At first glance, the difference is not too noticeable, and indeed, many buyers choose the Renault Logan or its rival Chevrolet Lacetti, guided solely by visual sensations. Let's look at their design in more detail.
Appearance
Design Renault Logan implemented under the slogan: Simplicity and accuracy. There is nothing remarkable in the shape of the headlights and the body, but there is a definite plus in this - when repairing and needing to replace some elements, you will not spend a lot of money.
The headlights are designed without a hint of the rapacity inherent in more expensive cars, foglights are located directly below them. The hood and have smooth, unobtrusive curves. The radiator grille and the air duct are in tune with each other. The insertion of the door handles is not very ergonomic - to open the door the first time, you need to get used to it.
The rear bumper is not as smooth as we would like, but the designers added something similar to a spoiler so that the step formed by the trunk lid was justified.
Compared to Renault Chevrolet Lacetti seems a little more bulky due to the visual weight shift to the rear bumper. It looks like a typical one, in which it is convenient to transport children and go shopping.
The Italian designers who were brought in to develop the design came up with a look so versatile that it hasn't become outdated over the years, but it's not distinguished by sophistication either. The headlights and foglights are quite large, and the grille, on the contrary, is almost absent. The designers did not want to somehow beat the air duct and simply drowned it under the bumper.
Salon and trunk
Inside the Chevrolet Lacetti is as simple and neat as the outside. The interior is upholstered in gray and light gray material with narrow wood-like plastic inserts. The multimedia system does not have a screen, the steering wheel is ordinary, but comfortable, the speedometer is quite large. All important levers and buttons are placed very well: it is easy to adjust the air conditioner, seat position, control the radio.
The salon is able to comfortably accommodate only four adults, five of them will be cramped. The back of the sofa at the back folds, expanding the trunk space from 405 liters. up to 1225 l.
Renault Logan has a spacious interior in black and gray, a simple steering wheel, air conditioning. For the presence of a multimedia system and the ability to adjust the chair, you need to pay separately.
The trunk is very roomy - 510 liters, but you can not free up additional space at the expense of the rear seat, as is the case with the Chevrolet. But five adults can easily fit in Renault.
Engines and transmissions
At various times, engines were installed on Lacetti:
- volume 1, 4 l. and a power of 95 liters. With.;
- with a volume of 1.6 liters. and a capacity of 109 liters. With.;
- with a volume of 1.8 liters. and a capacity of 121 liters. With.
The second option is in the greatest demand: a four-cylinder naturally aspirated 1.6-liter engine, quite powerful and durable. The gearbox is available in both a 5-speed manual and a 4-speed automatic.
As for Logan, in Russia it is distributed with three types of engines:
- with a volume of 1.4 liters. and a power of 75 liters. With.;
- with a volume of 1.6 liters. and a capacity of 84 liters. With.;
- 16-valve with a volume of 1.6 liters. 102 l. With.
The latter is the most preferred for comfortable trips. Logan is most often found with a five-speed manual gearbox, but there is also a four-speed automatic.
Considering these parameters Logan or Lacetti, it is difficult to say which is better: as you can see, the engines and transmissions are very similar.
Dynamics and fuel consumption
Renault Logan picks up speed of 100 km / h in 10.5 seconds, which is expected for. Every 100 km. way he spends about 10 liters. gasoline.
Chevrolet Lacetti accelerates in 10.7-11.5 seconds and consumes about 8.1 liters. fuel - a slightly better indicator than Logan.
Manageability and safety
EuroNCAP recognized the Renault Logan as quite reliable. Crash tests showed the following:
- Despite the fact that in the basic configuration there is only one airbag (for the driver), the chance of a passenger being injured is small even in a frontal impact.
- With a strong frontal impact, the legs of the driver and passenger are practically not injured.
- There is a risk of traumatic brain injury due to a simple airbag and soft headrest.
- In a side impact, the driver's door can jam, but at the same time it is slightly susceptible to deformation and is able to protect the person inside.
As for the handling of Logan, then:
- The suspension is soft for high speed and cornering maneuvers, but very reliable and almost indestructible.
- There is no exchange rate stability.
- Weak aerodynamics.
Chevrolet lacetti tested for reliability by the American Institute IIHS. From crash tests, the following is clear:
- Despite the presence of two (and in some assemblies and four) airbags, the driver and passengers can receive injuries that are incompatible with life.
- In a frontal impact, the body is deformed and injures the legs of the driver, as well as the passenger sitting in front.
- Side airbags do not always open.
- By inertia, a person’s head deviates back, and due to loose fixation with a pillow, the vertebrae may suffer.
The handling of the Lacetti suffers from high ground clearance, and many resort to tuning to ride comfortably. You also often have to taxi so that the car does not blow away.
Maintenance cost
If we compare Logan and Lacetti, then the maintenance of the first will cost more:
- TO15 - about 6500 rubles;
- TO30 - about 7300 rubles;
- TO45 - about 6400 rubles;
- TO60 with checking, repairing or replacing levers, suspensions, belts, rollers, brake pads - 22,000 rubles.
THAT Lacetti costs less:
- TO15 - about 7000 rubles;
- TO30 - 9000 rubles;
- TO45 and subsequent - 11,000 rubles.
Price of all packages
The cost of Renault Logan is 399-500 thousand rubles, and Chevrolet Lacetti - 250-400 thousand rubles.
Which car do you prefer
What to choose from the two presented cars, of course, the consumer decides. As you can see, the difference between them is small, but it is safer and better prepared for accidents on the road, and Chevrolet has an adequate price for MOT and.
Recently, inexpensive foreign cars are gaining more and more popularity in our country. Along with the impending crisis, passenger cars turned out to be a priority, which will cost really inexpensively, but at the same time meet all the requirements for safety and comfort, as well as have a low price for maintenance and spare parts. Today we will compare the budget segment leader Renault Logan with the most popular economy class foreign cars: Hyundai Accent, Daewoo Nexia and Chevrolet Lacetti - and find out who is better.
Guest from USA
It's no secret that Renault Logan is far from the only favorite of the race. Tens of thousands of cars drive along Russian roads, which have long been loved by drivers for inexpensive service and extremely affordable prices. At the same time, such cars meet all European standards, and there are no signs of the usual "Soviet" cheapness here.
To understand which car to choose, Renault Logan or Chevrolet Lacetti, you first need to look at these two cars from the side.
If we consider the first generation of Logan, then here the design cannot be called successful. Here, angular transitions abound, sharp, blurry contours and, of course, cheap exterior materials that are visible, perhaps even to the naked eye.
At Lacetti things are quite different. Yes, this car is really difficult to call stylish or expensive. But each line describing the body looks harmonious and fits perfectly into the overall design concept of the car. Sufficiently stylish and expressive optics, in addition to everything, performs its functions much more fully than the small rectangular headlights of a Frenchman.
The interior of both cars is not replete with a large number of chips that can surprise. But here everything is done in a pleasant minimalist style and will not take much time to get used to.
The situation is quite different if we compare the American with the updated Logan, which is a completely redesigned car created from scratch, despite the fact that the engine lineup has remained the same here.
The engines that are provided for the Lacetti are inline four-cylinder naturally aspirated. The same can be said about the line of Renault Logan engines. However, more powerful units are provided for Chevrolet: a volume of 1.4 and a capacity of 95 horsepower and a flagship 1.8 with a capacity of 118 forces, while for Renault at 1.4 liters 75 “horses” are achieved, and at 1.6 only 102. Thus, in terms of engines, the “guest from the states" is better.
Things are quite different when comparing the Lacetti with the second generation of Logan. The Frenchman here still loses in terms of dynamics and speed performance, but the quality of interior trim materials, and the design of the car itself, turn out to be much higher than that of a competitor.
In addition, the equipment of Renault Logan is much richer, so the updated Logan takes the lead.
Unrivaled Excellence
Another contender for the title of winner is Daewoo Nexia, a native of the Uzbek automobile industry with Korean roots, familiar to the eye. This class B sedan has long established itself as a hardy car that can do without engine overhaul for hundreds of thousands of kilometers.
Needless to say, the appearance of the Daewoo Nexia is very simple and mediocre, as one would expect from such an inexpensive and truly popular car, even though Daewoo Nexia expected restyling a few years ago. After that, the sedan got new optics, a slightly modified radiator grille and a light body kit, which, of course, benefited Nexia.
If we compare the Daewoo Nexia with the first Logan, then the choice again falls not in favor of the Frenchman. Obviously, in comparison with the Korean, whose design is based on the Opel Kadett of the eighties, Renault looks more wretched and angular. But if we move on to the interior, then here a certain choice will be much more difficult to make. If Nexia uses inexpensive materials and hard plastic, then Renault Logan does not “lag behind” in this regard, and here oak and cheap material is used on the dashboard, door handles, and the steering wheel itself. However, the second generation of Logan is far ahead of Nexia, although this car costs more.
The range of Daewoo Nexia engines is presented in the form of a gasoline four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, which, with a volume of 1.6 liters, is capable of delivering up to 108 horsepower. Recall that Logan's engine of exactly the same configuration will give out only 102 forces - Nexia is breaking into the lead here. The torque of the “Uzbek” reaches 150 newton meters, while, like that of the Frenchman, it is 5 units less and reaches only 145.
As for fuel consumption, Nexia, oddly enough, is again the winner. In the combined cycle, the car will consume only 9.3 liters versus 9.4 for Logan. But when out of town, Nexia loses by almost a liter.
Focus on practicality
Another compact sedan that is surprisingly popular among Russian car owners is the Accent model. This car is in great demand, thanks to the high confidence in the Korean auto industry and the phenomenally inexpensive spare parts and components, fortunately, they can be found on the Accent in almost any car shop.
If we compare the appearance of the Accent to Logan, then it is much more difficult to determine the leader here than in the case of the first two cars. Moreover, making a choice is equally difficult both in the case of the first generation, which looks too clumsy and angular, and with the second, which is an order of magnitude better than the Accent. .
In other words, the Korean in terms of design turns out to be the golden mean and is a harmoniously looking, but not too catchy passenger car.
Turning to the interior, it should be noted that the Accent's finishing materials are of high quality in places, so there are no complaints about the overly budgetary approach of the engineers. Unlike the Accent, the Renault Logan of the first generation is dominated by hard plastic, which creaks and crunches in every possible way when driving.
For the Korean sedan, more powerful and revving engines are offered than for the French. So, the engine lineup includes power units with a capacity of 107 and 138 horsepower, if we talk about the latest generation of the sedan, which began its production in 2010. But the fuel consumption of the Accent, which "prefers" fuel with 95 octane, is almost a liter higher in the urban and extra-urban cycles.
As for the transmission, for the Korean, in addition to mechanics, only an outdated 4-speed automatic is provided. For the Frenchman, the manufacturer has prepared a stepless variator, which has proven itself well and copes with its duties much better than the classic automatic transmission.
Final verdict
All considered cars are an excellent solution for those who prefer maximum comfort for a minimum amount. If Renault Logan of the first generation loses to most of the presented cars, including Accent and Nexia, in terms of design and quality of finishing materials, then restyling breaks into the lead and becomes the favorite of the race.
Lancer or WRX, Astra or Golf, CHR or Juke? Questions for which there is no correct answer. You have to choose with your wallet. Both Lacetti and Logan were so popular that they became symbols of the class of budget good cars. By 2018, the Lacetti has already been removed from the assembly line, and Logan has experienced more than one restyling, but there are still hundreds of offers on the used market.
Comparison of Lacetti and Logan
Lacetti in the secondary market is offered from 150,000 rubles. for cars with mileage of 150,000+ km. Logan is sold from 120,000 rubles. for a run of 200,000+ km. The difference is not so great. It was the same minimum in the salons, when both cars were sold new.
The Lacetti is slightly longer than the Logan, but this will only be noticeable if you leave the car in a super-dense and crowded parking lot in the very center of the city among Smarts and Micras.
In the basic configuration, the Lacetti has more horsepower: 95 versus 75 for Logan. This difference is not so significant, since both cars cannot boast of crazy accelerating dynamics. They can’t participate in drag racing, and even Renault has enough strength to move around the city.
Both cars were assembled in Russia, so there is no need to talk about French or American quality.
The fuel consumption of both cars is approximately the same: 9-11 liters per 100 km, but you will have to go to the gas station a little less often on the Lacetti: the Chevrolet's fuel tank is 10 liters more than Renault's (60 liters versus 50 liters, respectively).
In terms of ride height, Logan wins, bypassing the Lacetti by as much as 5 mm (155 mm versus 150 mm).
Judging by the reviews about the car, most people choose the Chevrolet Lacetti for its appearance and greater comfort for passengers. But there are legends about the endurance of the Renault Logan chassis, and it appears less frequently in car services than a Chevrolet.
Pros and cons of Chevrolet Lacetti
Most buyers believe that the Lacetti looks more attractive than Logan. The Lacetti design turned out to be a little more durable, and it still looks decent. In contrast to the appearance of Logan, which was already a bit outdated right off the assembly line. However, this is a matter of taste.
The main target audience of the Chevrolet Lacetti is those who transfer from Priora, Grants and Kalina. A real ecstasy awaits them, because it seems that Chevrolet is considered to be a foreign car (in fact it is not), but spare parts cost the same as for Zhiguli. Moreover, they are produced in the same factory.
The Lacetti was not loved for poor sound insulation, however, like all other budget models on our market. Many owners have modified this ailment on their own, because the sound from under the wheel arches and the whistle of the engine is not the accompaniment that you want to ride to. But, if the Shumka is factory-made on the model you have chosen, think about it and set aside money to fix it.
Chassis Lacetti is much inferior to Logan. The rear suspension does not consist of a beam, which would be less interesting to manage, but more reliable and cheaper, but of levers. The front suspension is stiff, elastic, almost does not break through the pits. But at the same time, at speed in corners, it gives out terrible rolls. It is not difficult to stagger the suspension on the Lacetti, especially for those who do not filigree all the bumps in the road. The fastest way to change the chassis is to change the shock absorbers and stabilizer struts. However, this is not surprising for Russian roads.
Valve cover filter replacement has to be done so often that this service can be included in the usual maintenance. According to the owner, this problem can overtake at any time: both from 2000 km and from 20000 km.
Another drawback of the model is the thin metal, which is crushed even by strong pressure with a finger.
Pros and cons of Renault Logan
The main thing you need to know about Logan is that it is a workhorse with a hard-to-kill suspension. That is, the suspension is better tuned only for domestic Zhiguli. Punched rails, rutting, pits, open hatches, primer, sandy "washboard" - on Logan, all these obstacles can be overcome on the move.
A significant drawback is the weak paintwork. Therefore, when choosing a car in the secondary market, do not be very fierce if you find a lot of painted over chips in the hood area: perhaps the previous owner simply tried to follow the appearance of the car.
Another disadvantage is the high cost of spare parts. Compared with the Lacetti and in general - transcendental.
All Logan owners that we know are screaming with one voice about hatred for short gears. Here is a moot point. On the one hand: all the time “pulling” the lever and shifting gears without ceasing, especially in the city - annoying and at the same time growing biceps on the right hand. Many even get under way with the second one - the first one is so short. On the other hand: it is short gears that allow the car to overcome obstacles and be at least a little dynamic with, to put it mildly, not the top-end engine.
What do Chevrolet Lacetti and Renault Logan hide?
We found a 2005 Chevrolet Lacetti car on a site with ads for 250 thousand rubles. There were more than 3 owners. It does not require repair. We will check the car according to the license plate through service "Autocode" :
The car has no accident, 6 owners, mileage of 134,577 kilometers and limitation in 2018:
It is not worth considering buying such a car. You will not be able to issue it to yourself in the traffic police until the restrictions are lifted.
Now let's check Renault Logan.
Let's see what the Autocode report shows.
The car has traffic police restrictions, it was used in a taxi, there are unpaid fines.
Both Logan and Lacetti, to the extent of their popularity in the used market, often meet with restrictions and work in a taxi. 6 out of 10 cars we checked turned out to be problematic. And this suggests that, when choosing between two models, one should not forget about checking them. You can check the history of the car on our website or through the Autocode app.
What to choose
Both cars are not designed for comfort, a beautiful exit at an expensive restaurant or picking up girls. Both the Lacetti and Logan are bought exclusively "to ride", but not on the Lada. Which car to choose is up to you.
