Initially, it seemed that this video had even more chances to become popular on YouTube and social networks than the tests "" and. Still, Niva (Lada 4x4) is the most popular domestic car in the west, which has been exported for about 40 years. However, within a week, the video with the test gained 230,000 views - not as many as the previous videos. Maybe the point is that the Russian off-road veteran is not so exotic for the foreign public?
"She looks awesome!" - with these words, an American JT, already familiar from previous tests, began the inspection of the Niva. It is worth noting that a particular copy that got on a test drive really turned out to be stylish. The owner of the car with Armenian roots obviously worked on it appearance: snow-white Lada looks great with dense tinting, black door handles and massive wheels with discs in a contrasting color. LED flashlights are visible in the headlights, and white decorative stripes look bright on the dark bumper. And yes, this is no longer the old Soviet Niva, but a Lada 4x4 with square taillights.
Interesting that the real compact SUV reminded the American boys rally cars in particular the old Mini Cooper Rally. "Is she a little raised?" Paul asked, peering into the depths of the wheel arch. And he received a discouraging answer: "No, she's like that from the factory." - "Then I would not lower it! It looks arrogant for a small car," - said the American.
In the cabin, the "experts"' assessments have become more modest. Jay Tee was upset by the looseness of some interior details and traditionally complained about the lack of cup holders. "If there are no cup holders, then there are no airbags. This rule is inviolable!" - in all seriousness he said.
Paul felt the gearbox was too loose, and he was also surprised at the tiny legroom. rear passenger. However, the front seats in the car were installed in such a way that even the rather large J.T. wanted to move them forward. And when this was done, he easily managed to sit down, as they say, behind himself.
The real surprise for the Americans was spare wheel located in engine compartment car. "I feel like I'm in the wrong part of the car," Paul exclaimed as he bumped into the spare tire. "But there's an engine here, too," he added with relief. JT was glad that the hood opens non-standard - from windshield. "The sun doesn't bake your head when you're working," he smiled.
When the guys hit the road, the first thing they encountered was the sluggishness of the steering wheel with a lot of play, as well as the softness of the brakes. "We need to slow down!" - J.T. shouted to himself when he almost jumped out of the gateway onto the main street. He also complained about excessive vibration from the "transfer case": "I feel it through my legs, through the pedals. I even seem to feel the bearings." Remembering that the car has four-wheel drive, J.T. softened his ratings: "You can safely "downshift" here! Very good." But, having parked, he still could not stand it: “Yes, you can’t drive on this car ...”
However, Lada 4x4 will still have a chance to prove itself - Pavel Suslov promised the Americans to drive the car off-road.
