Auto Industry has long developed a rule for themselves do not bury cars, even if they are gone. There are always the markets of so-called developing countries, where obsolete models can be successfully selling for many years. It is enough just to replace the logo. The results of such a badge-engineering we can observe everywhere, and from time to time we are with you, like a dog, throw all the new and new "bones". Piple, as they say, whipping. And this, unfortunately, pure truth, because, taking into account the economic realities, for many of us today, the main thing is not design and technical perfection, but the low price of buying and operating the car. And since, I will try to "eat" and what the Chevrolet Lacetti has turned from the Chevrolet Lacetti market. On the test at infoCar.ua -.

Story with history

For 10 years from the moment of his debut, this car was sold worldwide under a ten different names. His development was engaged in the South Korean company GM Daewoo, the design belongs to Peru Italian masters, and the sedan was collected in those countries where it was cheap, that is, in Vietnam, in Colombia, Russia, Ukraine, and so on. All the fact that the car, known to us as Chevrolet Lacetti, has received a final venture in Uzbekistan and is now called Daewoo Gentra.

Gentra is a bright example of badge-engineering. However, Uzbeks did not just take Lacetti and replaced the logo. They made an attempt to change the design of the facial part of the car. To do this, the headlights from the hatchback were installed on the sedan, while tilling them with a narrow grille of the radiator, and drew a new bumper with rectangular fogs. Very pretty, by the way. Yes, only with the top of the "muzzle", this bumper harmonizes about the same way as Brioni's jacket with ABIBAS sports pants. Such is the peculiar Uzbek School of Design. But for trying to change something - plus to the karma is definitely.

Since the story of Daewoo Gentra is impossible without binding to Chevrolet Lacetti, I will give some curious facts from the history of this car. At one time, he was used in the legendary Top Gear program as a budget sedan for celebrity races. He also became the basis for creating a racing version, successfully speaking in the world championship of touring cars. But all this is already in the past. Today's Gentra is only echoes of those events. However, it is still full of strength in order to fight for their existence.

Before we go to study the salon, I still say about what. Gentra rearview mirrors slightly more than Lacetti. Otherwise, the doors are closed. Unlike tin sound in the original model, here it is deaf and, accordingly, more pleasant. True, because of the thick seals, the doors have to clap well.

And one more thing - even in the top package, Gentra has no central locking remote control. Open and close the car is solely the key. But this problem is easily solved by installing any modern alarm.

Interior

Interior Daewoo Gentra is well a sign of Chevrolet Lacetti owners. Changes in it are minimal and relate mainly to the central console and the appearance in the top configuration of matte plastic inserts "under the tree". Visually, they make the interior more expensive, although the materials of the interior decoration, for some exceptions and taking into account the budget of the car, and without that good. For example, the pad on the torpedo and part of the upholstery of the doors are made of soft plastic. The fabric also seems good. And somewhat frustrating only the rubber steering wheel and not too expensive on the sight of gray plastic.

Gentra has become the first budget car recently, in which I easily and quickly managed to find a comfortable fit. And there is no secret here. Absolutely in all configurations of this sedan are available not only longitudinal adjustment of the driver's seat, but also adjusting it in height. Moreover, it is two-level, that is, separately you can configure both the front and the back side of the pillow. In addition, the lumbar adjustment is provided here. As for the steering column, in all the equipment, except for the maximum, it is adjustable in height, and in our case there is also an adjustment of departure. However, all this does not mean that having achieved a comfortable fit, you will simultaneously get a good visibility. First, Gentra has too wide front racks. And secondly, the side mirrors of the rear view sin with serious "blind" zones, and this, of course, noticeably complicates the driver's work.

It is impossible to say that the places on the second row of Gentra too much. If high people sit on the front armchairs, the foot spaces behind the back remains not enough, although it should be enough for most situations. In any case, it is not much less than that of major competitors, despite the fact that Gentra's wheel base is shorter - 2600 mm. It is not particularly spacious and above the head, but this is mainly due to the presence of a hatch.

Of the pleasant moments available, however, only the owners of the top-end configuration, I will note the presence of a convenient central armrest, which is fixed in a horizontal position, and does not fall on the pillow, as it often happens.

What in Gentra is more than enough, so it's all sorts of niches, pockets and so on. The largest capacity, naturally, is a glove box - spacious, with a removable partition, backlit and cooling. Under the armrest, Niche is smaller, but this is not all. The little boxes have to be left of the steering wheel, on the shelf under the central console, you can put a mobile phone, without fear that it scratches, because the bottom there is fabric. The front and behind there is a pair of cup holders, plus pockets at the end of the passenger seat, pockets on the backs of the front chairs and on the doors. Moreover, on the back, in addition to the main, there is also additional. And finally, the decent size of the drawer is hidden under the passenger seat. All as in the present family car!

It is worth noting that even in the basic configuration Daewoo Gentra is equipped very well. By and large, from serious options available only in more expensive versions, it is worth noting only ABS, adjusting the steering wheel, heating the front seats, a hatch with an electric drive and an audio system. Everything else, including two airbags, air conditioning, electric and heating side mirrors, is available as standard equipment.

Trunk.

Since Gentra has no remote control of the central lock, it is silly to count on the fact that the sedan trunk will open with the button on the door. But this button is conveniently located on the driver's doors. And even though the trunk here you can not call huge (405 liters), you can put it in the asset. If only because, unlike some direct competitors, the back of the rear sofa is developing here, increasing the volume to 1225 liters. Paul is even, however, it will not work, but it is still better than nothing.

In the rest of the trunk, Gentra is also not bad - the loading height is small, the dimensions of the opening are sufficient, the backlight is present, the full-size spare wheel on the steel disk is also in place. It is a pity that there is no handle from the inside of the door.

Instruments and multimedia

Most of the instrument and multimedia equipment is completely predictable by the NV Gentra from Lacetti. This also applies to the instrument panel, which, as before, ascetic, is deprived of an on-board computer, but it is easy to read, and air conditioning, perfectly coping with cooling, and with heating salon.

New in Gentra Only audio system with 6 speakers, available in two upper equipment. It sounds quite safely, knows how to read CD and MP3 discs, equipped with AUX-input, but devoid of USB port. In the top configuration of the "Music" control buttons, also on the steering wheel. But here is one strange feature - from the promised 6 speakers in the car turned out only two, and those from behind. And this is not the only "puncture" in a new car. For example, the backlight of the heating button of the passenger seat no longer works ...

Drive

Perhaps the main thing that happened to Gentra in the process of reincarnation is "heart transplantation". Now the sedan under the hood is unlternatively installed 1.5-liter 16-valve "four" with a distributed injection and chain drive timing. Gives such a 107 liter motor. from. Power and 141 nm of torque, working in a pair with a 5-speed manual gearbox or with a 6-speed "machine".

One of the advantages of a 1.5-liter motor in this car is a good traction on low and medium turns. This makes it possible to quite comfortably ride in urban modes, confidently rebuild and overtake. In some cases, you can not even lower the transmission. And it is actually good, because the box is not the best here. It does not differ in perfect clarity and, on the contrary, is distinguished by the long stroke of the lever. But on the highway the motor accounts for very difficult. It clearly lacks the sixth gear in the box and as a result, at a speed of 100 km / hour, the crankshaft spins with a speed of 3000 rpm, and at 120 the tachometer arrow confidently crashes to 4000 "revolutions". In addition, it leads to increased fuel consumption, such revolutions do not add acoustic comfort in the cabin. And if you add to this the lack of sound insulation of the wheeled arches, and the wind whistle, it turns out that at high speeds ride the Gentra is not particularly pleasant.

Unfortunately, the absence of an on-board computer does not allow us to say for sure how much fuel consumes Daewoo Gentra. According to passport data, in the urban cycle with a manual transmission, gasoline consumption A-95 per 100 km is 8.5 liters, in the country cycle - 7 liters. However, practice shows that these figures can be safely adding a liter and a half to get real indicators. In any case, Gentra does not differ especially humble appetites. But the volume of the fuel tank of the sedan can be attributed to its advantages - 60 liters.

The chassis from Gentra is structurally exactly the same as in Lacetti, and this, on a second, independent suspension of all wheels, that is, the McPherson racks are installed in front, and behind the "multi-phase". And I must say, the suspension here is all-friendly. She easily "swallows" almost all defts of roads. It is extremely difficult to "break" it. Yes, it seems harsh, but only in the case when the car is empty. It is worth putting several passengers, and the picture changes for the better. But it is important to remember that with increasing mass, the efficiency of the brakes is noticeably reduced, and they are already not the best here.

Thanks to a well-tuned suspension, Gentra is quite confidently holding the road. In the corners of the body of the sedan, the cinema is slightly, but a good insufficient turning and sluggish reactions on the rotation of the steering wheel spoil the picture. However, not devoid of informative "Baranca", allows you to feel the car and easily controlled it.

Conclusion

All week that I spent driving, I did not leave the feeling that I was driving a used car in excellent condition. No matter how cool, and in 10 years the design of this sedan is obsolete morally. But this is perhaps the greatest drawback, which easily overlaps with numerous advantages.

Gentra Although a little more expensive than major competitors, but quite comparable at the price with such sedans as Emgrand 7, BYD F3 and JAC J5. And even if she gives him a little in the equipment, this car will take the fact that it will be able to repair it for any one hundred, there will be no problems with spare parts, and to sell Gentra, in which case, it will be much easier than any of the Chinese. Plus, she is practical, quite comfortable and travels very good for his money. If the appearance of Gentra does not bother you, then this is the car, which, when choosing a budget sedan, is worth paying attention.

P.S. Unfortunately, the current confusion with currency courses led to the fact that cars for cars are revised almost daily. On the day, when we took Daewoo Gentra to the test, the top package with "mechanics" cost 138.500 UAH, and the base - 115.000 UAH. And now, at the time of publication of this article, the car seriously rose. Now you can buy it at a minimum of 131.000 UAH, and for the top modification with the MCPP asking as much as 156.000 UAH. Therefore, for convenience, we will not focus on the hryvnia, but to the equivalent in US dollars at the rate 11. So Gentra costs from 12 thousand, and this is the highest start price among competitors, since Emgrand 7 and Jac J5 can be bought for 11.000, and BYD F3 - for 11.300 USD. Make conclusions yourself.

The output of the new modeluz-Daewoo - the event is very loud, because the premieres of the conservative Uzbek concern allows himself extremely rare. The more interesting is to explore the Daewoo Gentra.

Appearance

First look at the novelty ... Although stop. What is this novelty? Poured Chevrolet Lacetti! Indeed, Gentrased on the basis of Lacetti, but has undergone a number of changes, so the novelty can be considered in full right. The main innovation is a completely different power unit, but first we will deal with appearance.

Behind Daewoo Jazentizes only the company nameplate - otherwise there is no difference from Chervolet. But ahead of the Uzbek model looks fresh. First, it was moved here with pretty capacious headlamps from Lacetti-hatchback (there were other, more archaic on the sedans). Secondly, a new radiator grille and a new front bumper appeared. I liked him most of all, namely, his expressive lower edge, emphasizing fog lights. It seems a trifle, and the appearance of the car changes.

Salon Daewoo Gentra

Salon Daewoo Gentherworks is much more interesting than many classmates, and it is not surprising. Lacetti was preparing to release in 2002-2003, when the "latter economy" has not yet entered the tradition of automakers. It can now be launched a car without head restraints, armrests and other trifles, hiding behind a low price. Then buyers did not understand this, and Daewoo Gentra keeps the blessed spirit of those times.

Say, how do you finish "under the tree" in the budget car? Of course, it is plastic. But it looks, in combination with dark gray plastic, it is quite organic, no worse than, let's say, in the new Toyota Camry. And on top of the torpedo covered soft (!) Lining. I do not sell a finger on a centimeter, but it's nice to God!

And then there is a hatch, front armrests (with boxing) and rear (with cupcakers), three headrest, a bunch of pockets, adjustable cup holders and even ashtrays. A dozen years ago, all this was mandatory attributes of a normal car, even if cheap.

Now marketers do not give you all this! Do you want head restraints from behind? Order a "security package" with a bunch of unnecessary options, which at least somehow need to sell. Oh, you also have a hatch in the roof? Well, this is solely in the "Super Suux" configuration with an automatic box and xenon headlights for the amount worthy of a business class sedan. Daewoo gentra is like a sip of nostalgia by an era, when the buyer did not try with all their forces to sell the penny options for crazy money. Enjoy!

Separately, you need to say about the audio system. She is new here, doubly. During my brief acquaintance with the car, I could not find a USB entrance, but the press service assured it - serial cars will be the connector. So lovers to make a "diagnosis of photography" we offer to wait for the official start of sales.

Seats - a separate story. The front armchairs of Daewoo Gentra are not covered with the most pleasant cloth, the pillow is short, the back is flat ... and sit on all this harsh. But adjustment! This will not even meet this even on crossovers for a million ... With the help of two bars, you can lift the pillow or in front, or behind, configuring its tilt. There is also an adjustment of the lumbar backpage, the truth is mechanical and only in two positions. But still great.

There are no adjustments from behind, but the upholstery is the same, frankly, budget. I have not liked the fact that the seats are installed low relative to the floor, as in frame SUVs. Above your head, of course, the space remains a lot, but the fact that the knees have to be raised above - uncomfortable. One good - at my 175 cm growth in the back of the front seats do not get drunk, even if it is moved to the maximum.

Trunk.

By the volume of the trunk, the Daewoo GentaConocoupe is not very convincing. Whereas now in the class of state employees, it is customary to make freight compartments "500 plus", the gentle can boast only 405 liters of volume. Large loops, besides, will shrink part of the space.

But many ergonomic decisions of the Jenter VEU are very sensible. Let's say the cover can be opened from the salon - the button is somewhat unusual, but it is quite convenient for the driver's door. In addition, the raised floor can be fixed on the edge of the luggage opening, to calmly get the spare wheel (full-size, by the way), if necessary. It is also important that the lid has a felt upholstery - imagine, Chevrolet Cobalt and Renault Logan on the reverse side - naked metal!

Riding qualities

Unfortunately, no customs cleared by Daewoo Gentra with numbers in Russia is not yet - the car just managed to submit to the general public. Therefore, the way on the way of general use to us is ordered, and our test drive was limited to the compact parking of the Russian representative office Uz-Daewoo.

And go to go on a new gentre as I should Oh, as I want! After all, the most important changes affected the power unit. Motor here is a new - 1.5-liter DOHC, comparable to what is installed on the same as on Chevrolet Cobalt. Although both engines are produced at the GM PowerTrain Uzbekistan plant, they are not the same. They have a different clutch, a catalytic converter system, an engine control module and some other nodes.

In addition, according to the press service, the car will receive the same 6-speed "automatic". On the track, the behavior of the car with such a box is very worthy. True, Daewoo Gentra C automatic transmission will appear in the fall, and the first light will see modifications with the usual 5-speed "mechanics".

The mechanical box itself is usual for a state employee. Not too clear and short moves, not the most comfortable ring to turn on the reverse gentleman ... But those who will translate on Daewoo Gentras of the Domestic Auto industry or, say, with Renault Logan, will feel a positive difference.
Noise insulation of the engine compartment, in the first approximation, worse than in the same Chevrolet Cobalt - the engine is heard quite well. But the 6-speed automaton will help with which the motor will work most of the time on moderate turnover.

According to the dynamics and suspension, alas, to say nothing yet. Sales start on July 1, 2013. Then you can check the car in action. In the meantime, you should be patient.

Having kept on the conveyor of 9 years, the US-Korean sedan Chevrolet Lacetti did not leave on peace, and gained the second youth and with the new name Daewoo Gentra again stood on the conveyor!

The Daewoo Gentra model is completely built on aggregates and lacentti nodes of the last generation. But still there are some curious differences from cars - with this and you need to start. First of all, the "gentra" has a more modern and interesting appearance, and the main changes affected the front part: the optics have already become and accepted a drop-shaped form, the bumper received a new sculpture, a different design got the relief of the hood and contours of fog headlamps. The profile and feed in Gentra and Lacetti are almost identical.

Interior Daewoo Gentra almost entirely repeats what could be seen in Chevrolet Lacetti. The five-seater salon is quite spacious, however, first opening the door of the car, the eye is somehow not rejoiced. For example, the upholstery reminds velor. Perhaps someone will like this tissue, but I think it is not the most practical material for such a practical budget car. But not every classmate Gentra boasts such elements of driver's comfort as head restraints, armrests and other little things.

Of course, the Uzbek build is ideal you can not call, but it is quite decent: there are no visible problems with fasteners, as well as obvious gaps between the details.
At the same time, some questions for the quality of materials are, as well as certain too much budget structures. If plastic looks even more or less acceptable, then it is harsh and cheap to the touch. For example, lever control mirrors of the rear view mirrors, the steering wheel is not at all pleasant, and the lever of the gearbox is made in an old manner - to turn on the rear gear, it is necessary to pull up the ring. This will have to get used to it, although there is a big plus of such a solution - I definitely do not miss the back.

Ergonomics are normal here, everything is at hand and in sight. By numerous pockets and drawers, you can break off a bunch of small things, the steering wheel is adjustable in height and on flight. And some ergonomic Daewoo Gentra solution and pleased them at all: for example, the trunk lid can be opened by pressing a large button located on the door of the driver over the speaker.

In general, in this car, if you remember and understand its "class affiliation", you can find it on a little to what. The instrument panel is simple, understandable and quite informative, and greenish backlight does not cut eyes. The regular audio system includes a radio receiver and a CD / MP3 player with AUX connector and six speakers providing a rather high-quality and pleasant sound.

The driver's seat is adjusted mechanically, there is adjustment of lumbar support. But the profile at the front seats is literally absent, so it's not entirely comfortable to sit. The rear sofa is designed for three, but it is better to be located there.

The trunk is small - only 405 liters, but under its floor there is a full-size spare wheel, and the cover is endowed with the felt upholstery and the groove itself is processed (and on many state employees there is just naked metal).

But the most interesting is the next question - what is Daewoo Gentra on the go? The engine on the car is installed 1.5-liter, outstanding 107 horsepower and 141 nm of torque.

It is combined with "mechanics" for five gears or a modern 6-range "machine". First, about version with MCP. The clutch of such a "gentle" is friendly, so even a beginner will be able to touch the first time. When promoting the motor is noticeably bass. The clarity of gear shift is not ideal, but it is better than, for example, in Lada Granta. Even with the load, the engine in a tandem with "mechanics" confidently accelerates the car, cheerfully and without nature. The speakers are enough to confidently feel themselves in the urban stream, and on the highway, with reasonable overtakers.
One of the advantages of the engine is that with a 16-valve scheme, it is confidently pulling from the "Niza" itself as the 8-valve. Therefore, high gears can be turned on early, and go to the bottom - less often. The first transmission is short, so driving, you can almost immediately include the second. However, it is worth noting that the transfer numbers are chosen so that at a speed of 120 km / h, the tachometer arrows comes from almost 4000 rpm, and in the cabin there is a strong hum of a motor. It also joins the road noise, and everything is due to unsatisfactory sound insulation of the wheeled arches.

Not bad Daewoo Gentra rides with automatic transmission. Moreover, the dynamics of overclocking is practically no different. The box clearly declines the steps, slightly dropping gas, so the change of gear happens almost imperceptibly. "Stupull" no, the reaction to pressing the accelerator is fast. In addition, there is an honest manual mode that runs canceled. Well, the sixth gear allows you to save fuel. In the city "Avtomat" much more convenient "Mechanics", especially with his good work. Yes, and on the track no uncertainty arises, so you can not neglect overslays.

The Uzbek sedan has a simple suspension design: McPherson front racks, multi-dimensional circuit rear. Therefore, there will be no problems with its service. Chassis from Daewoo Gentra all-conditioning. On fairly large pits and irregularities, speed can not be reduced, thanks to the excellent energy consumption of the suspension. But the minor and average irregularities of the sedan hides not completely, which may seem a bit harsh. At the same time, there is a chassis elastically and quietly. Of course, the ability of "gentlemen" to ride bad roads will have to taste its owners, and it can be compared to this indicator from budget cars. It may except Renault Logan.
On the highway, the sedan behaves expected to stop and stable, the rolls, of course, are present, but they are not very pronounced, and the car is quite chains on the arc. However, this continues until the wheels are smooth asphalt, and behind the window - the calm. It turned out that the "gentle" reacts a bit nervously into the air "shock waves" from the truck and the side wind - noticeably wagging and thereby demanding adjustments to the steering wheel. Therefore, when leaving an open site, for example, from the forest, you need to be alert. Gentra does not like and asphalt gates, especially if you get in them during rebuilding: a sedan begins to "walk" by the strip.
The steering wheel of Daewoo Gentra with a hydraulic amplifier, which is perceived against the background of electrical analogs a little tight, although it does not disappoint "emptiness". However, on the laurels of the driver "Gentra" and does not pretend, this is not its purpose.
The brakes at the car are excellent and grip, both in front and behind they are disc. Slow sedan confidently.

In general, we can say that Daewoo Gentra sedan is a worthy car for low cost. For many qualities, he bypasses both Chevrolet Lacetti, and budget models of more eminent companies than Uz-Daewoo. Of course, consumers have consists, but they are not so significant, and more significant advantages make them practically imperceptible. It can be said that Gentra is a proven for years "Latzetti", which received a slightly different appearance, new equipment and lower cost.

New Daewoo Gentra was published only in 2013, that is, quite recently. Although in this case, perhaps a new one, it is well forgotten old. In fact, you see Restayl Chevrolet Lacetti with a new power unit, refinement of the cabin and functional. True, in contrast to its predecessors, a gentle can be found only in the form of a sedan. Probably, it is its competitive flaw.

On our roads mainly run Dashushka Uzbetsk spill. Their release is engaged in the AUZDAEWOO AUTO auto industry. And cars converging from their connels are Uz-Daewoo.
And the quality of the domestic assembly can be judged not speculative, and for specific examples - our Daewoo (Uz-Daewoo) Matiz. and Nexia. Also belong to the Uzbek plant.

In terms of Restayl - changed part of the hood: headlights, bumper, radiator grille.

New engine Daewoo Gentra is a modified engine analog . He is quite a bit inferior In power, but superior in economy. European ecostandart emphasizes the economical fuel consumption.

The timing is now chain, not a remote.

The checkpoint goes in the options of a 6-automatic or 5-mechanic. With a machine gun, the car will cost thousands of 40-50 more expensive.

Gentra is quite smooth in control due to the soft suspension. Well, not the last role is played by high-quality basic tires.

As in the case of the body shape, the engine of Gentra is only one. Although it is possible that all these limitations will only initially.

Salon Simple and spacious. Registration is largely inherited from Lacetti. In the best configuration, decor elements are added. The panel is comfortable and familiar. The rear armchairs add up almost completely, expanding the place for suitcases three times.

The salon is not distinguished by special chic and increments - but everything is enough for a good and comfortable ride. We will not banal, remembering that the car is not a luxury, but a means of movement. I think no one would refuse to ride a bull on Lamborghini, but in our conditions it will rather cause more difficulties than advantages.

Despite the fact that Daewoo Gentra is a budget class car, the desire to improve the interior is noticeable. Daewoo does not lag behind and tries to bring and stuffing and style to good standards, how much is possible. And does not neglect pleasant bonuses.

Among their competitors, Gentra is distinguished by a decent base bundle. The total package of options brings the gentle of almost to the level of the comfort of the European Golf Class car.
Among the competitors is one of the best options for the price \\ quality.

Basic competitors - Chevrolet Cobalt, Renault Logan. At about the same price range are Peugeot 301, Fiat Linea, , . Competitors from our cars - Lada Priora, .

About the disadvantages of Daewoo Gentra

• The exposure of corrosion housing, despite the factory anti-corrosion coating.
• Unprotected location of the engine control module.
• In general, practically no lack of protection of the engine compartment - with the cross-location of the engine. What forces to make refinement after purchase (to protect the crankcase), and the installed defense will still reduce the basic clearance.
• Velic gaps in some parts of the body. This can also include the problem with the tough closure of the doors.
• Suffering noise insulation.
• The chairs of both rows are not without flaws - somewhere short, somewhere low.
• Big moves of gearbox

Although the last two are someone like.
