What cars do Moscow residents prefer to buy? It turned out that Korean cars are the most popular among Muscovites. It is no coincidence that cars of Korean brands took the first places in the sales rating of metropolitan dealers.
Korean cars are not only pretty design. Cars are reliable, quite comfortable and economical. In addition, the cost of Korean cars is relatively low.
The most popular cars in Moscow
The Korean model Kia Rio is the best-selling car in Moscow. A new car can be bought in Moscow from 679 900 rubles. The average fuel consumption of a car with a 100-horsepower engine and a manual transmission is 5.7 liters per 100 kilometers.

All-Russian TOP of the most popular cars looks a little different. What cars do people in Russia prefer to buy?
First place at the same Korean Kia models Rio. The second and third places are domestic cars Lada Granta and Lada Vesta. In fourth place again Korean cars Hyundai Solaris and Hyundai Creta.
Nowadays, a car is not a luxury, but a necessity. But a new vehicle is not affordable for everyone. Therefore, many are considering used options, which, in principle, is a good idea. So, it is worth listing in the secondary market.
Mazda 3
You need to start with this model, since most of the "triples" are sold in Russia. It is our motorists who buy up 1/3 of all manufactured models. In terms of sales, Russia has even surpassed Germany and England, in which the "troika" has always been in demand.
And it can be safely included in the rating "The most reliable cars in the secondary market." This model can be bought in good condition and with quite modest mileage. If you try hard, you will be able to find a car for an amount of less than half a million rubles.
Interestingly, it is easiest to buy a model with a 1.6-liter gasoline engine with 104 hp. With. If you need a car with a 150 “horses” engine and a volume of 2 liters, then you have to look.
In terms of operation, the "troika" is also not bad. Stabilizer struts and hold 50,000 km. The suspension can easily withstand 100,000 km. But even after the mileage capital problems not foreseen - only minor repairs.
Volkswagen Passat
It is impossible not to pay attention to this model, talking about the most reliable cars in the secondary market. VW Passat is a popular choice among lovers of German and quality cars. In addition, for low price. The 2012 model with an "automatic", 1.8-liter engine and the maximum configuration can be bought for 750,000 rubles. Not 100% a budget option, but the combination of price and quality pleases.
If you take care of the car, then there will be no problems. After a run of 70,000 kilometers on a car with a 1.8-liter engine, it weakens and, as a result, jumps the chain. That's why you need to check everything periodically.
After 100,000 kilometers, the crankshaft oil seal must be replaced. And if you decide to buy a car with a turbodiesel, you need to be prepared for the fact that the throttle valve will stick. In general, it is better to opt for a 2-liter "gasoline". It is considered the most reliable.
In any case, regardless of the model, after 100,000 km it will be necessary to change the front levers and rear bearings. They are especially vulnerable.
Toyota RAV4
This compact crossover is loved by many. That's just it is difficult to attribute it to the budget. However, if you study the most reliable cars on the secondary market and get acquainted with their cost, you can understand: for the amount of half a million rubles, it is quite possible to find RAV4.
Only the "age" of the model will be at least 10-12 years. And the mileage, respectively, will be more than 150,000 kilometers. But the rest will be in good condition.
Care, of course, should be. Every 20,000 kilometers it is necessary to replace the candles. After 40,000 km, a throttle valve is also required. Every 200,000 kilometers the timing chain needs to be replaced. And it is necessary to put through 70,000 km.
Ford Fusion
This city hatchback is really reliable car. The model was produced for 10 years - from 2002 to 2012. Fusion is translated as "fusion". Having given the car such a name, the developers outlined their concept, which consisted in the fact that their car incorporated the characteristics of an “SUV” and a comfortable golf-class hatchback.
A 10-year-old "age" model can be bought for an amount of 260,000 rubles. She will be in good condition, but with a solid mileage. Engine - 80-horsepower, 1.4-liter. And the equipment will be good - with a passive safety system, heated windows, multimedia system, rear view camera, air conditioning and alarm system.
Fusion is a reliable car. But he has his weak point, which is the fuel pump. Every 100,000 kilometers it is better to change it. And, by the way, it is more profitable to buy a model with "mechanics". In this case, only a clutch replacement will be required - and then every 100,000 km. The Aisin machine is reliable, but the "robot" is problematic. Fails too often actuating mechanism. Otherwise - no complaints.
VW Golf
And again, Volkswagen. Only the Golf model. This reliable and inexpensive car is one of the most successful machines of this concern. The model is in third place in the Volkswagen sales ranking. And in 2013, by the way, the seventh generation Golf was recognized as the best car of the year.
For 500-800 thousand rubles, a car manufactured after 2010 can be bought. Its advantages are a corrosion-resistant body and good grip- it can withstand about 120,000 kilometers. The timing also needs to be changed after 120-130 thousand km. Of the minuses, silent blocks of the front levers can be noted, as well as stabilizer struts. They need to be changed every 70-80 thousand kilometers.
New "Golf" - but not cheap. It costs about 1.5-1.7 million rubles. But on the other hand, under the hood it has a 150-horsepower 1.4-liter engine controlled by an “automatic”. And the equipment is solid - with bi-xenon headlights equipped with washers, improved suspension for bad roads, electric heating, climate control, a media system, 8 powerful speakers, parking sensors, etc.
Daewoo Nexia
This one is popular despite its age. This is because it is the most affordable used foreign car in our country. But if you buy Nexia, then only a model released after 2010.
For 150,000 rubles, you can buy a car in 2012. With a 1.5-liter gasoline engine, "mechanics" and a mileage of 100,000 kilometers. The equipment is meager - an alarm system with auto start, music from USB and power windows. But it's inexpensive.
A used 2015 model (with a 1.6-liter engine) will cost about 400,000 rubles. But the equipment will be much more solid. Air conditioning, power steering, headlight range control, blocking rear doors, headrests for all passengers, brake light, aspherical rear-view mirrors, glove box, radio Clarion, 3-point inertial belts… There really is a lot to this car. So Nexia - the main thing is not to take the old model.
Renault Logan
Talking about the best-selling cars in the secondary market, one cannot fail to note this model of the French manufacturer. Logan is a budget subcompact car. For 400,000 rubles, it is quite possible to buy a used model on the secondary market with an 82-horsepower 1.6-liter engine. Cars of an earlier release are sold for 200-300 thousand rubles.
However, Logan is not perfect. It has many pluses, but there are also minuses. The owners of this car complain about a bad seal - if you do not dump the snow from the roof, then it can melt right into the cabin. The climate control knobs are at the bottom - uncomfortable. The mirrors are too small, there are not enough containers for small things, the trunk is high, which affects visibility.
But a clear plus is an indestructible suspension, high ground clearance, an excellent stove, as well as reliable, engine-tested motors that can be safely called omnivores.
Opel Astra
If we talk about cars that are worth buying in the secondary market, then Astra definitely cannot be ignored. Prices for models released after 2010 start at 350,000 rubles and above. But this, of course, for a car in good condition.
This model has been published for 25 years. Several generations have been produced since 1991. Astra is produced in the back of a hatchback, station wagon and sedan. This model is popular due to its reliability, beauty and German quality. And the price of these machines pleases. Especially used ones.
So, for example, an Astra 2012 with a 1.6-liter 116-horsepower engine and a mileage of 65,000 kilometers will cost about 400,000 rubles. And this is with the maximum configuration of Cosmo. Which includes everything you might need. There are active headrests, air ducts to the legs rear passengers, cruise control, electronic climate control, airbag deactivation, heated electrically adjustable seats, interior lighting, power steering, and much more.
Cars with the least loss in value
Finally - a few words about liquid cars in the secondary market. If you believe the data of well-known analytical agencies, then Renault Sandero lost the least in value. The new model in 2011 cost about 430,000 rubles. In 2014, a used Sandero was offered for 360,000 rubles. Lost 14.9% of the value is a very modest figure. By the way, now the new Sandero costs about 550,000 rubles (with a 75-horsepower engine).
"Hyundai Solaris" in 2011 cost about 520,000 rubles. In 2014, used models were offered for 435,000 rubles. The loss in value was only 15.9%.
In third place is also Hyundai, only the Santa Fe model. Its price in 2011 was 1,310,000 rubles. In 2014, it could be bought for 1,100,000 rubles. And now, by the way, "Santa Fe" is offered for the same price. With a 2.4-liter 174-horsepower engine and a mileage of 30,000 km.
The notorious VW Golf is also included in the list of liquid cars. In 2011, it was offered for 700,000 rubles, and in 2014 - for 590,000 rubles. "Volkswagen Polo" could be purchased for 520,000 rubles. In 2014, the same model in used condition was offered for 435,000 rubles.
Automobile Kia Soul in 2011 it cost 685,000 rubles, and in 2014 - 560,000 rudders. It lost 18% in value. And in last place in terms of liquidity is nissan note. This car was sold for 515,000 rubles in 2011, and for 420,000 rubles in 2014.
As you can see, today in Russia there are a lot of quite advantageous offers. For several hundred thousand rubles, it is quite possible to purchase a reliable, high-quality and even attractive car that will not bring much trouble in terms of operation. And what kind of car to buy in the secondary market - it already depends directly on the desires of a person.
It is generally accepted that buying a used car is akin to a lottery, where the probability of losing is many times higher than the chances of drawing a winning ticket. But no one forces you to play blindly: it all depends on how you approach the choice of car. And if you do not plan to spend money on repairs, you can start by studying the reliability ratings of cars that are sold on the secondary market. What cars worth up to 800,000 rubles. have proven to be the least problematic?
Mazda 3 BL (2-3 years)
With the start of sales Mazda 3 2013 model year the previous generation began to actively explore the secondary market. The model with the BL index attracts buyers both with its up-to-date design and low mileage, and with good chances for further resale. Indirectly, this is indicated by the demand for the “troika” of the first generation, which is still a real bestseller.
On average, car prices for 2011-2012 start at 550,000 rubles. Most often there are modifications with a 1.6-liter gasoline engine with a capacity of 104 hp, and those who want to buy a car with a 150-horsepower engine with a volume of 2 liters will have to spend some time searching. Both power units do not cause serious complaints from the owners. On a 1.6-liter engine, oil may leak from under the timing cover bolt. Most often, to solve the problem, it is put on a sealant.
Both gearboxes - automatic transmission and mechanics, are considered quite reliable. The weak point of the Mazda 3 second generation is steering rack: there are cases when she began to knock at a run of 20 thousand km, and by 60 thousand a replacement was required. On average, about 50 thousand walks the left engine mount and stabilizer struts, the remaining suspension elements can withstand more mileage.
Pads have a smaller resource, they are changed every 20-30 thousand, and brake discs 2-2.5 times less often. When buying, it is useful to pay attention to the condition of the body: given the good demand in the secondary market, this model is often restored after serious accidents. Also, remember that the Mazda 3 BL is one of the top most stolen cars in the world.
VW Passat CC (4-5 years)
Despite the fact that the 4-door "comfort coupe" appeared in dealerships back in 2008, its appearance remains relevant today. average cost The 2009-2010 Passat CC is coming close to our price point. However, for this money, you can choose a modification equipped with one of the supercharged gasoline engines, 1.8 and 2 liters with a capacity of 160 and 200 hp, as well as an economical 2-liter turbodiesel developing 140 hp.
In general, power units do not cause any particular problems, with the exception of some nuances. In particular, 1.8 TSI with the BZB index requires attention to the timing chain tensioner - with a run of over 70 thousand, the chain may loosen and jump. In addition, a car with a mileage of more than 100 thousand km. often squeezes out the crankshaft oil seal. A motor of the same size with the CDA index, which has been installed on the Passat CC since mid-2010, is prone to high oil consumption.
An engine with a volume of 2 liters is considered more reliable. As for the turbodiesel, cases of stuck throttle are known. The most reliable among the gearboxes remains mechanics, in which even the clutch life exceeds 200 thousand km. Automatic transmission may require replacement of the hydraulic valve block, however, the 7-speed has earned the reputation of the most problematic box DSG robot who “does not like” traffic in traffic jams. Repair of this node is a rather expensive procedure.
For the suspension, replacements are mainly required by consumables, but the front levers and rear wheel bearings go on average a little over 100 thousand km.
Ford Fusion (6-7 years old)
This is a real urban workhorse”, or rather a pony - quite simple, budgetary and reliable. On average, prices for copies of 2007-2008 start at 270,000-300,000 rubles. The runs are quite decent - about 80-90 thousand, but if you wish, you can find cars that have passed no more than 60 thousand. The model is equipped with only 2 gasoline power units, with a volume of 1.4 and 1.6. l., which develop a power of 80 and 100 hp.
Both engines belong to the Duratec family - by no means the most modern, but without serious flaws. Therefore, problems with them during regular maintenance should not arise either for 100 thousand or 200 thousand. Like many Ford models, weak point is the fuel pump: often it needs to be replaced already at 100 thousand km. But it is not necessary to change it to the original assembly with the “glass”: you can pick up the pump itself in the catalog of substitutes.
The best option is a purchase Ford Fusion with manual transmission: in this case, it may only be necessary to replace the clutch, the resource of which is measured at about 100 thousand mileage. The Aisin “automatic” is also quite reliable, but the “robot” is more problematic: the actuator often fails, the electrical wiring corrodes, and clutch replacement will cost more than on mechanics.
In the suspension, stabilizer struts most often require replacement, the remaining elements go for more than 100 thousand. At the same time, along with original parts and consumables, it is easy to find more affordable replacements in the catalogs. The only downside is the high cost. body parts.
Toyota RAV4 (8-9 years old)
The Japanese compact crossover is in demand in the secondary market, so car prices start at 500,000 rubles. For this amount, you can buy a second-generation RAV4 of the last years of production with one of two gasoline engines: 2 liters, 150 hp, and 2.4 liters, developing 167 hp. Modifications with a 125-horsepower engine for the 2005-2006 model year are much less common.
At timely service the resource of both motors significantly exceeds 300 thousand km. It is necessary to change the spark plugs every 15-20 thousand, flush the nozzles and throttle valve at 40-50 thousand, and after 200 thousand, the timing chain may need to be replaced. “Automatic” and mechanics are reliable, but the life of the first is significantly reduced by active off-road driving. In turn, the clutch on the mechanics takes care of 150-200 thousand km.
Chassis is also strong: 70 thousand may require replacement of the struts and stabilizer bushings, and at 100 thousand the front shock absorbers often begin to flow, but the rest of the suspension elements live longer. Some cars experience a leaky steering rack oil seal, but this can be easily fixed with an inexpensive repair kit.
VW Golf (10-11 years old)
Production of the fifth generation VW Golf began in 2003, and today the range of prices for used cars of the 2003-2004 model year is 300,000-350,000 rubles. The most common in the secondary market are cars with a 1.4-liter gasoline engine with a capacity of 75 and 90 hp, as well as a 1.6-liter engine that can develop 102 or 115 hp. But if you wish, you can find cars with a 2-liter 150-horsepower power unit or one of two turbodiesels.
Body Golf V has a fairly high resistance to corrosion: manufacturer's warranty - 12 years. As for engines, engines with the FSI index, with a volume of 1.4 and 1.6 liters, have a relatively small timing chain drive resource - chain replacement is often required already at a range of 120-130 thousand km. The engine, with a volume of 2 liters, has a belt drive, and usually the belt also does not take care of the 180 thousand km assigned to it.
Power units with the MPI index, they do not cause any particular complaints, like both manual gearboxes. The clutch in them goes over 120 thousand km. Reviews regarding the reliability of the 6-speed robotic box DSG gear contradictory: many owners complain about the malfunction of the “robot” ECU.
As for the suspension, the silent blocks of the front levers and stabilizer struts are primarily subject to wear - their resource is 70-80 thousand km. The rear suspension has a resource of more than 100 thousand km. Among other problems, a EUR malfunction is possible in cars of early years. The advantage of the VW Golf V is that the cost of used copies decreases very little over time.
"You can't sell if people don't want to buy."
Akio Morita.
Have you ever thought before buying a car about what? Do you know that there are fast-selling cars and illiquid?
Have you ever wondered why iPhones are the top sellers, while, for example, the once popular Nokia products went into oblivion, completely losing market share? The thing is that at one fine moment, no one needed Nokia phones.
Naturally, Nokia faced a financial collapse due to falling demand. Or have you ever wondered why Toyota cars bought all over the world, which allows Japanese brand several years to be the world leader in sales?
We won't go into details about why Apple or Toyota products are so popular all over the world. Today we are not talking about that. Briefly, if there is successful sales any product, it means a steady demand for products. If the demand is high, then this or that product arouses the interest of the public and meets some of its needs and criteria, on which the final choice of the consumer depends.
For example, main criterion the choice of this or that product on the market is the price / quality ratio. Accordingly, the products of these companies meet the needs of consumers as much as possible. The same goes for any other products that are available on the market today. Including used cars.
For example, why do you think some cars in the secondary car market are sold quickly enough, while others can “hang” on sale for a very, very long time? Moreover, what is most interesting, it can be absolutely the same car in value.
In fact, there are many reasons for this. After all, the car market lives according to the same laws as any market for complex goods (computers, digital equipment, etc.).
In addition, the liquidity of a used car on the market is also affected by its maintenance cost, the cost of spare parts and, as well as a number of other factors. For example, in our market there are very liquid used cars, which are quite easy to sell in any season. There are cars that, despite less liquidity, are still sold pretty quickly. There are also models that are not so easy to sell. And, of course, there are vehicles that can be sold for years, even if the price tag is lowered far below the market.
For many car owners. After all, the faster the buyer is on the car, the greater the demand for a particular model. Accordingly, the greater the demand, the greater the average market prices for a car. Also, a steady demand in the used car market for a certain model guarantees it less loss. market value Every year.
Unfortunately, like illiquid cars, the models that are in the greatest demand in the market lose their positions from time to time. But there is nothing surprising in this. Time flows, everything changes around, including the preferences / tastes / requests of motorists. It also changes economic situation in our country, where now people have begun to learn how to save on everything. Accordingly, rather quickly, Russian motorists fell out of love with cars with powerful engines, giving preference to low-power cars.
So, as you can see, it is very difficult to buy a new or used car today, which will be the least, because of the constant change in the situation in the secondary market. Naturally, guessing which car can be sold in a short time in 5-7 years is almost unrealistic.
True, it is worth noting that the list of the fastest-selling cars in our market does not change so often, while the list of the worst-selling cars almost every day. Therefore, if you are planning to buy a car that you want to quickly sell in a few years, then you can safely choose the car that is liquid in the secondary market today.
We think that the situation will not change in the coming years. Fortunately, during the economic crisis, our car market has greatly narrowed and most car companies today have chosen to abandon the production of wide production line. This means that in the coming years, our used car market is unlikely to be replenished with new models that could affect the liquidity of today's popular cars.
Every year we conduct an analysis of the secondary car market in order to find out the brands of the fastest-selling cars. For analysis, we took the statistics of the Auto.ru portal, and also studied many thematic forums dedicated to various models presented on the Russian market.
Having made a selection of the most common brands, we have selected for you the final rating of the most liquid cars in the secondary market.
It should be noted that Auto.ru statistics are somewhat different from the information we received from automotive forums. Apparently, the information from the forums on the speed of the sale of a particular car is more reliable, since the data of the Auto.ru portal on the time of the sale of cars are averaged. It's like the average temperature in a hospital, because it includes wrecked cars, suspiciously cheap cars, and cars with a very high price tag.
Nevertheless, we traditionally decided to summarize data from various sources on the Web and make our own calculations on the speed of sale of a particular car. Please note that our analysis did not include cars that are not popular on the Russian market, since data on their insignificant sales does not reflect a reliable picture of sales dynamics. The sale period includes averaged data for the last few generations of a particular model, as well as all engines and equipment. As a result, this is what we got according to the results of 2017.

What affects the quick sale of a car in the used car market
Many, of course, want the best car for themselves, not only in terms of cost, quality, reliability, economy, maintenance / repair costs, but also, of course, that their future car did not lose much in price in the secondary market, and also remained liquid for a long time. After all, it will depend on how quickly and for how much the owner will sell it in the future.
But have you ever thought about what can primarily affect the speed of selling a used car? Let's try to explain briefly.
Rare models and sports cars
I must say that, unlike the United States, where sports cars are liquid cars, in our country sports cars are illiquid vehicles that can be sold for a very, very long time. Also, the sad fate of long sales awaits the owners of rare specific cars, especially luxury cars.
For example, if you own a Maserati Quattroporte, then get ready for the fact that your car will be “hanging” on bulletin boards for at least a few months. Moreover, by lowering the price tag below the market, you are unlikely to be able to speed up the search for a new car owner.
Unfortunately, such illiquid cars there are a lot of them on the Russian market. And it's not always the case.
Price
Of course, the liquidity of any car in the used car market is affected by its price. Nevertheless, many car owners often, for one reason or another, inflate the price tag on their car, hoping to get as much money as possible.
Especially prone to this are those owners who believe that their car is technically and external characteristics outperforms similar models in ads. Including often overestimate the cost of the owners of cars previously purchased on credit. Probably, in this way, many expect at least a successful sale to compensate for the huge overpayments on the loan and spending on the CASCO policy. But it is naive to hope for this, since it is unlikely that you will be able to compensate for the costs associated with owning a car. Keep in mind that you will not sell the car for more than the market dictates.
Some car owners, putting up a car for sale, mistakenly overestimate the price tag, trying to at least partially justify their investments: retrofitting, tires, music, floor mats, antenna, tuning, etc. Unfortunately, you are unlikely to succeed, because your no one will appreciate investments in a car, since average market prices again rule the market. In most cases, people buy cars for market price or below. And rarely when transactions are carried out at prices significantly higher than the market.
Many car owners sometimes deliberately put inflated price tags on their cars, thus counting on bargaining. But they do not take into account the fact that not everyone understands pricing in the secondary market, and the raised price simply scares off potential buyers.
For those who want to learn more about how to competently sell on the secondary market, here are a few articles on this topic:
Also, here is another article that will tell you how to properly photograph a car for a sale announcement:
Vehicle equipment: equipment
Not the last role in the speed of sale of the car is played by its equipment. Today, despite the attractive price, a “naked” car can hang on the secondary market for a long time, while 5-7 years ago such cars were bought up like hot cakes. This is especially true of the car market of large Russian cities.
Today, people prefer to buy a well-equipped car. So if your car does not have the minimum equipment, then do not expect that by selling it you will be able to get a normal amount (near the average market value).
Including do not forget about gearboxes. Unfortunately, today there is a trend when people more often opt for cars with automatic transmissions. This is especially true for the market of large cities with dense city traffic, in which it is uncomfortable to drive a "mechanics".
But not all cars with automatic transmission are in demand. It all depends on the model and brand. For example, today many people are still afraid of cars with robotic transmissions. Including many do not want to buy cars with CVTs, considering them unreliable units in modern industry. Although this is a myth, it is very difficult for motorists to convince the opposite.
And, finally, the liquidity of any car, of course, is affected by its engine size and power. After all, it depends on fuel consumption and size transport tax. Today, in contrast to the pre-crisis period, when our country was carelessly selling oil for $100, people are more likely to buy cars with small engines and no more than 150-200 hp. With.
Especially this trend was outlined after the country reached 35 rubles. And apparently, the fashion for small cars will gradually increase as the price of fuel rises.
True, for low-power cars with low-volume engines, the demand in our country is still small.
For example, the 1.6-liter engine is considered the most popular engine in our country. For some reason, the liquidity of cars with such engines is better than cars with 1.2- or 1.4-liter engines. Nevertheless, due to the increase in the size of the fuel excise tax planned by the government in the coming year, we should expect an increase in demand for small cars with a small capacity, since soon the prices for gasoline and diesel fuel will inevitably approach the mark of 50 rubles. for 1 liter.
And this, given the current standard of living and the level of wages in the country, will already hit the pocket of the majority of Russians, who, like Europeans, will be forced to gradually change to cars with small engines.
The popularity of the auto brand in the country
Each country has its own popular car brands. For example, in the US, brands and are the sales leader. In our country today, in addition to the domestic Lada, Korean auto brands are also popular, but, for example, French car companies have been suffering losses in our market for many years due to low demand. But this is already a feature of our national tastes.
Apparently, motorists in our country at one point fell out of love with French cars.
So the liquidity of the car also depends on the popularity of the brand in our country. By the way, according to recent data, the popularity of the domestic Lada brand in Russia has grown in recent years. In many ways, this was facilitated by the success of new AvtoVAZ models. The success of Lada Vesta is especially noticeable. Also in our country, Korean car brands are very popular, which own a large market share in Russia. Among other things, Toyota has not lost its popularity, which our motorists traditionally love for high-quality and reliable cars.
luxury cars
It is no secret that they often cannot boast of special liquidity in the secondary market. Of course, this is primarily due to the cost of servicing cars in this class, their market value, insurance costs, fuel consumption and taxes.
So if you want to buy premium car, you must be prepared not only for a large loss in the value of a car in a few years, but also for a long sale in the secondary market.
Repair and maintenance cost
Another factor that affects the liquidity of the car in the market. Today, when the cost of spare parts and components has increased significantly, when the real incomes of the population continue to fall, the cost of car ownership has become more relevant than ever, which is primarily associated with the cost of regular maintenance and car repairs.
Every year, analysts summarize and provide visual information about the situation on the market. The past year was no exception, as auto sales data for 2018 was recently made available to the public. The rating of the best-selling cars in Russia for 2019 is just beginning to be calculated, since there is still a lot of time before the end of the reporting period. But so far the situation is developing well. There is a certain probability of maintaining positive dynamics in the sale of new cars. But the situation can change at any moment. Therefore, we will talk about the leaders in car sales in Russia, which were most often bought from official dealers. The Association was responsible for the calculations. European business. According to their data, it was possible to determine the most purchased cars in Russia in 2018 and roughly draw a picture for the upcoming results of 2019.
Most Popular Models
Now let's look at the rating of the most popular cars in Russia specifically by model. We shouldn't expect big surprises here, as the situation on the market turned out to be rather stable. But still, the top most popular cars have their own nuances. Let's talk about them in more detail.
This is the best-selling car in Russia in 2019. A breakthrough for the AVTOVAZ model - LADA Vesta will certainly take its rightful place among such iconic cars lines of the Volga Automobile Plant, such as: VAZ-2101, 2109 and 2110. It is not surprising that an international team worked on the exterior and interior of the model.
Cons of LADA Vesta
Transmission. Some owners say that while driving they hear extraneous noise coming out of the box. Serious defects of this kind were not observed. There were complaints about bugs in the original firmware (important for robotic) that caused crashes when switching between gears. The "ailment" is treated with firmware from an authorized dealer.
Some owners also complain about "mechanics", bearing problems and difficult shifting.
Chassis of the car. Upgraded on the Cross modification rear suspension and front shock absorbers with springs are installed, all due to an increase of 25 mm ground clearance. There is an opinion on the Internet that the supports were delivered with sufficient quality, that at the turn there was a backlash over time.
Another kind of “disease” is the flying plugs of the central part of the wheel. Over time, the fastening part comes out of the grooves from the shrinkage temperature.
Engine. Keep an eye on the oil level in the engine from the moment of purchase.
Salon Vesta. Over time, the interior begins to "creak". Interior elements creak due to the lack of seals. At least in Runet there is an opinion that cleaning the steering braid will help get rid of the problem.
Wiper blades - an unexpected drawback. The part can also quickly fail.
Heating failure detected windshield(the firmware is to blame or the need to check the fuses), sometimes the ignition coils fail ( warranty case). Door hinges creak (rarely), elastic suspension SAG exhaust system.
Of course, these are not all the shortcomings of Vesta. But they have one thing in common - serious damage, complete renovation engine or gearbox replacement has not happened yet.
Advantages of LADA Vesta
AvtoVAZ has become better. Don't expect major damage. Yes, there are problems with the little things that we managed to find on the net, but they most likely belong to the “children's” category. The automaker is working on fine-tuning new products and is really listening to its customers and Vesta users. He made a big bet on the model, because reputation and huge investments are at stake.
Engine. Good horse. Those drivers who have already managed to drive more than 100 thousand km, no additional complaints were announced.
Clearance really helps in everyday urban use. Where the usual Vesta will not pass, the Cross version will easily overcome the obstacle without damage.
European level? It is not surprising that the "West" is actively promoted in the markets. In general, versatile and not only looks modern and attractive (at least for most users). Therefore, the departure of AvtoVAZ from the "bricks" on wheels is another plus.

The Volkswagen Polo is so well known that it hardly needs an introduction. If you like the Ford Fiesta, Audi A1, Peugeot 208 or Vauxhall Corsa - or any other supermini - you should definitely at least consider the Polo.
New Polo more and more technological than its predecessor. For example, its occupancy is 25% larger than before, while VW's optional "Active Info Display" is digital. information panel- is the first for the supermini class. Adaptive cruise control, self-parking system and panoramic sunroof are options that offer systems and features from the class above. Although new car still recognizable as a Polo and hardly a radical aesthetic, it is markedly different from its predecessor, reminiscent of the more spacious Golf with intricate headlight design and a geometric rear end.
The Polo is offered with a wide range of engines. We propose to abandon the 1.0-liter petrol engines with 64 and 79 hp whenever possible. With. - not because they are bad, but simply because VW's 1.0-liter turbocharged TSI petrol with 94 hp. more practical.
The sale also offers a 113-horsepower version of this engine and a 1.58-liter
Power 148 l. s., while the Polo GTI gets a 2.0-liter turbocharged petrol. DSG automatic transmission with double clutch offered as an option on most of the range.
The Polo has always been a light car to recommend with its class-defying looks and comfort, and new model develops these strengths. At speed, it's impressively quiet.
However, there is one small drawback: this new version of the Polo is practically a copy of the SEAT Ibiza, released a few months earlier. There are differences: the Polo's vents are set lower and the dash fairing is shaped differently, but the Polo seems to have lost some of its mature, sensible vibe in the process.
Build quality is higher thanks to perfect millimeter gaps between body panels and an impressive sense of solidity inside. Even though there are one or two dashboard surfaces that could be made from simpler materials, it's important to keep in mind that this is a supermini - albeit built to exacting standards.
The 351-litre boot tops some of the competition in the class above, while rear space is ample for adults and really impressive for a supermini. In this regard, Polo easily beats Fiesta.
The Polo's steering is a little light and ultimately lacks feel compared to the Fiesta, but ride country roads more fun than on its predecessor. There is almost no wind, road, or engine noise on the expressway, which in most trim levels gets in.
All vehicles are equipped with autonomous emergency braking and LED running lights, as well as an eight-inch infotainment screen. The youth-focused Beats trim adds a better stereo and a few aesthetic touches, while the R-Line model provides some of the Polo GTI's sporty trappings without too much of a price and running cost increase.
Powerful standard safety equipment helped Polo achieve a five-star crash safety rating Euro NCAP, And Volkswagen owners, as a rule, remain very loyal to the brand. Reliability also looks reasonable, with about 11.5% of VW owners reporting at least one problem with their vehicles during their first year of ownership.
Volkswagen Polo is sharper and more agile than before. Great quality assembly and decent standard equipment. The Volkswagen Polo is the first supermini to feature a digital instrument cluster. Spacious, comfortable and with a large boot, this is a practical supermini. Standard autonomous emergency braking improves safety.
"LADA" with a VAZ 21129 engine of 16 valves with a capacity of 1.6 liters. and a capacity of 106 liters. With. at the end of last year, it could be purchased for 700,000 rubles. As for the consumption of gasoline, 8.5 liters are consumed when driving off-road, and 9-9.5 liters in the city.
Trunk volume is 700 liters. The ceiling is quite high. If desired, you can put a chair in the trunk and turn a 5-seater van into a 7-seater family car. In the cabin, users distinguish deflectors that can not only be opened and closed, but also rotated in any convenient direction.
most big problem V operation of LADA Largus Cross there were not even specific "jambs" of the car, but the attitude towards the owners of official dealer centers. Users felt that the prices for spare parts for the car were too high. In addition, some time after the purchase, suspicious noises under the hood may be heard.
The dealership told him not to worry, and he was told that the adsorption valve was touching, and this was not a warranty case. The same dealers said that when the lights started to shine in the new LADA Largus Cross, they were inspected only after filing an official complaint.
In general, this is a reliable and unpretentious car, has excellent performance and, in general, has more advantages than disadvantages.
Dacia has earned its reputation in the RF by offering a huge amount of features for its price. No model exemplifies this more than the Dacia Duster, an SUV that nearly matches the Nissan Qashqai in size but with a price tag close to Nissan Micra supermini, and running costs to match.
The latest generation is just as highly regarded as its predecessor - its starting price is slightly higher, as is the level of its standard safety equipment. Reassuringly, Dacia stuck to its nonsense roots at a time when SUVs have never been more fashionable. Skoda Karoq, SEAT Arona and Renault Captur are just a few of the rapidly growing list of competitors.
With the Duster becoming such a well-loved and widely recognized car, you can't blame Dacia for wanting the latest model to closely resemble the original. Indeed, while the Romanian company Renault boasts that the Duster's sheetmetal was brand new for 2018, its shape, proportions and character have hardly changed.
Look closely and you will find many new details. The Duster wears the latest Dacia signature style: a grille that is wider than before, flanked by headlights with a more three-dimensional appearance. The window line is slightly raised compared to previous version which makes it stiffer, and the impression of solidity is further expressed in the bold wheel arches front and rear. Park first and second generation Dusters next to each other and today's model is more attractive.
This Duster is available with a 113-horsepower 1.6-litre petrol engine or a similarly powerful 1.5-litre. More powerful 1.3 liter Gas engine turbocharged - new for 2019, offering either 128 hp s., or 148 liters. With. As before, front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive versions are offered, but no automatic transmission yet.
In true Dacia style, the range opens with the rampant Access edition, revealing the secret of a profitable Duster prices Many of the amenities that SUV buyers take for granted are missing from this model. That means no receiver and no air conditioning, but standard power windows, remote central locking and LED daytime running lights mean the Access isn't completely uncivilized.
However, many will be pleased with the Essential model, which introduces air conditioning, a stereo DAB system with Bluetooth connectivity, and improved styling with front fog lights. Even more upscale, Comfort adds sat-nav, alloy wheels, cruise control and on-board computer, while the Prestige version enlarges these alloy wheels to 17 inches and provides warning about dead center, universal camera and keyless entry.
While an additional set of two latest models attractive, we recommend pairing your sat-nav-equipped smartphone with the more expensive 1.6-litre Essential petrol for a fantastic inexpensive SUV with a solid appearance and all the necessary space. Inside there is a lot of space for a family, and the interior is thought out to the smallest detail. It's even pretty nice car for driving - it doesn't have the sharp reflexes of the SEAT Arona, but it's stable, grippy and doesn't lean too much into corners.
However, it's disappointing that the optional Prestige Safety Kit for the range of cars can't be added as an option to other models, and features like autonomous emergency braking and active cruise control are conspicuously absent. Given the Duster's attractive pricing, we don't expect it to be necessarily standard, but it seems like it's not available at all. As a result of an independent crash test, experts from Euro NCAP gave the latest Duster a 3-star safety rating.
Dacia's last place in our 2019 Driver Power owner satisfaction survey doesn't inspire confidence either, but the results are largely attributable to Duster's even cheaper Dacia Sandero stabilizer. Newest Duster certainly has a lot to offer - it's a big step up from its predecessor in terms of design and demand, and the lack of sophisticated protective equipment is the only real blemish.
Neither the purchase of a Dacia Duster nor its operating costs can harm the family budget. The Dacia Duster isn't a leader in handling, but handling is safe, responsive and enjoyable. The Dacia Duster is now more comfortable and refined than before, but not as chic as more expensive competitors. As with the original, the latest Dacia Duster delivers astounding practicality for the price. This is one area where the Dacia Duster's cost issue is an issue.
Analyzing the results of the study, we can say that the Russians to a greater extent prefer domestic cars And . There is also a serious trend of increasing interest in crossovers. An increasing share of the market is occupied by the SUV category. And here, too, they mainly acquire more affordable crossovers. The reporting period clearly showed a positive trend. But experts fear that the results of this year will be much less positive. The instability of the economy, the growth of the exchange rate and the increase in the cost of cars have a negative impact on purchasing power. Although in the first months sales are at a fairly high level.
