UAZ with import engine and automatic box. UAZ Patriot with an automatic transmission. Patriot power units

the main / miscellanea

UAZ Patriot has a powerful engine and impressive dimensions, but despite this, quite unpretentious and almost all nodes can be repaired independently. For consideration of practicality, cars are equipped mechanical box Transmissions, because it is more simple in service and has a smaller number of details. But nevertheless, many drivers have a natural question, why the patriot is not installed automatic transmission.

Initially automatic box The gear was to be installed on the car still at the factory. This could happen for several reasons:

heavy control of a standard gearbox;
more complex movement in urban mode, as you have to constantly switch speeds in traffic jams and on traffic lights.

It pushed manufacturers to develop their own gearbox model. But at present there are several reasons that interfere with this. These are mainly concerning technological patents and certification. In addition, there are several bureaucratic barriers to the lack of financing and the need to set up a new technological line.

Types of automatic transmission

The release of the first car with automatic transmission was planned for 2018, but this date is shifted indefinitely. Therefore, at the moment a node from third-party manufacturers is used, which motorists can install independently or in dealer centers.

Official representatives of the UAZ conducted a great research, for compatibility of automatic transmission and power plant. At the moment, the most suitable model - A340 (A30-40LE). This model It has proven itself well, because it has been used for quite a long time on 4runner and hilux cars from Toyota.

This technology is not Nova, she has been more than 30 years old. But it has great advantages:

availability on secondary market;
low cost of components;
good maintainability.

Installation of automatic transmission

The cost of such a procedure will permanently cost at least 150 thousand rubles. This is provided that when installing the official dealer, the old box remains in the service. If the owner wants to keep his native knot, the price will increase by 30 thousand.

The price seems fairly high, especially compared to competitors, for example, to equip the curl or Duster will cost only 50 thousand. But this is justified by the fact that to carry out work, it is necessary to almost completely re-equip the car, since it does not have the corresponding fasteners installed at the factory.

When installing the dealer, a warranty for 1 year or 30 thousand mileage kilometers is preserved. This is possible due to the fact that before installing, they are subjected to a complete check and test cycle.

Installation.

In case used box AISIN.The system requires a minimum of alterations. It is necessary to make a casing of the hydrotransformer, after which it is necessary to transfer the radiator of cooling the automatic transmission for the radiator grille. After that, inserts are installed between the frame and the body so that it becomes above 5 centimeters. This is necessary in order to compensate for the large sizes of automatic transmission.

Characteristics.

The device box is quite old, so it works not very quickly. At the same time, when switching from 1 to 2, small shocks are observed. In many ways, this is due to its electronic filling. Therefore, when reprogramming is it possible to make it somewhat milfly.

Useful video

Camouflated from the head to heaters, under the colorful camouflage of which the usual outlines of the "Patriot" were visible to the Moscow Ring Road in the column of two other difficult-to-distant SUVs.

All three SUVs have extremely high degree Camouflage in three different colors: red, white and turquoise. It is under the red triangles that familiar powerful boards of a domestic utilitarian car for hunters, fishermen and residents of the villages were glanced. As wrote on the "RG" website, two other jeeps were also identified. A foton sauvana model was presumably under the white-black film, a different Chinese was seen by the turquoise protective film - H9.

It is assumed that testing is carried out as part of the development of new systems and units for the next generation of UAZ, which since September 2018 will acquire new system Engine cooling, and from March of the next year on the Russian "Patriot" the French will put automatic six-speed hydromechanical PPC Powertrain 6L50.

A little later, in 2019, an SUV will start to equip and updated gasoline engine ZMZ-PRO, with a capacity of 150 liters. With., which will go from the novelties of the current year -. From "Profi" will move upgraded front axle, which will reduce the reversal radius due to the changed due to the other swivel fist, 6 degrees angle deviation of the wheels.

In the cabin there will appear on racks for which you can stay.

Photo taken from rg.ru

Apparently, the Ulyanovtsy is just following the tests of their SUV on the "automatic" with an updated engine, on a new bridge, in parallel comparing its characteristics with the indicators of two other Chinese rivals. Or, perhaps, the cavalcade came across at the approaches to Moscow had several other goals, which is essentially not important. The main thing is what you want to ask: "Why are you an SUV, if the changes are internal, technical character? Is it really a hint of future changes in the appearance of a patriot? " It would be extremely interesting to know.

UAZ Patriot has already managed to establish itself as a simple and unpretentious car for russian roads. Traditionally, it is equipped with a manual gearbox, but the manufacturer announced and UAZ patriot with automatic transmission. How are things with "automatic" on a patriot actually?

Why "patriot" automatic transmission

Representatives of the auto plant in Ulyanovsk have long discussed the need to equip the UAZ Patriot Automatom. The reasons for this are several:

enough "heavy", almost like large-tonnant transport, clutch control and manual box;
disadvantage from moving on UAZ in urban mode, with permanent starts and stops in traffic jams.

Gradually, the need to create a model with the automatic transmission was more and more, and more and more often, requests came from car owners to equip the Patriot Automatom. Creating its own automatic transmission on UAZ patriot, approval, certification and other nuances of a bureaucratic and technological nature are delayed by the date of launching a patriot with automatic transmission on the conveyor. But it was found out - official dealer In Moscow, for a fee, equips the car with an automatic transmission.

The release date of UAZ Patriot with automatic transmission in the factory version is not yet voiced, presumably, it is 2018.

View of the salon "Patriot" with an automatic box:

What is used "automatic"

Specialists dealer centers UAZ conducted a great job by analyzing the automatic transmission and the fitness of installing various boxes on a heavy SUV. As a result of the research, it was decided to stay on the A940 (A30-40LE) joint development of AISIN and BORG-WARNER. These automatic transmission tested by time, reliable and well established themselves on such serious cars as 4Runner and Hilux from Toyota.

Despite the sufficiently solid age of technology - in 2018, the box "will turn" 33 years - the process of creating automatic transmission worked out to the smallest detail. A340 automatic transmission has many modifications and is installed on more than a hundred car models, including sports cars and massive, powerful SUVs. This gives a "automatic" substantial consumer benefits:

availability of automatic transmission parts and submented boxes in the secondary market;
High maintainability - with automatic transmission data can work almost every specialist engaged in automatic transmissions.

Cost of installation of automatic transmission

To convert UAZ Patriot into a two-week, you will have to post 150 thousand: that is the cost of automatic transmission and installation work.

IMPORTANT: such an automatic transmission is established, provided that the old "mechanics" is given to the dealer. If the car owner wishes to save the spare part among himself, the price will grow by 20-30 thousand, so much stands the mechanical transmission of the patriot.

Most car enthusiasts, driving on the conversion on automatic transmission, give the old gearbox to the dealer, since the independent sale of the box is troublesome, and the benefits of this often turns out not so much.

Of course, the price may seem somewhat overpriced, 150 thousand per automatic transmission is quite a lot. For comparison:

equipment "machine" car Hyundai. Creta will cost 50 thousand;
similar works on popular Renault Duster. - 48 thousand.

But high price The automatic transmission is dictated by the piece of work: UAZ Patriot on the "Automat" does not leave the conveyor, each machine is re-equipped manually.

The costs of the automatic transmission could be even higher if not a dealer step towards drivers: not new automatic transmission, but contract, from the secondary market. The solution may seem rather risky, since the reliability of the contract box is questionable.

However, when installing automatic transmission, a warranty is given for a year or 30 thousand km. Run. This became possible due to the full check of the check and testing contract boxes:

The automatic transmission is bought on disassembly;

check;
fresh transmission oil;
put automatic transmission on UAZ "Patriot".

The A340 automatic transmission itself is considered an extremely reliable and unpretentious unit, which allows developers with a sufficient degree of confidence to talk about the successfulness of the selected solution. Although even the proven automatic transmission automatic transmission is, to a certain extent, the lottery. But within the guarantee, the box can be changed.

Installation of automatic transmission on UAZ Patriot

AISIN automatic transmission was chosen, including for the design: she rises to a "patriot" with a minimum alteration. The most important stage of the installation of automatic transmission on UAZ Patriot is to make the casing of the hydrotransformer to dock the gearbox and the SUV motor, and modify the distribution for new features.

Subjected to the "off-road" part of the UAZ:

the cooling radiator automatic transmission is placed behind the lattice of the main radiator;

polyurethane inserts are made between the frame and the body to raise it on 5 centimeters. It is necessary to preserve the high clearance of the car, otherwise lost due to the bulky body of the automatic box.

As can be seen in the figure, the pallet of the automatic transmission lies below the motor:

Inserts lifted by the case:

Characteristics after conversion on automatic transmission

The box is inhibited more than 30 years ago, and works quite leisurely. Switching automatic transmission with 1 to 2 steps occurs with a noticeable impetus, and even the Cycdown Mode does not work immediately. It should be noted that in many ways it is the merit of the ECU of the box (the RATCU unit is used). The logic of the automatic transmission is amenable to reprogramming, which makes the box wheezing; At the same time, the flashing can be carried out almost on the go, since the used integration circuit in the on-board network allows you to change the parameters without fear to harm the automotive electronics.

You can do a flashing automatic transmission, and sometimes necessary: \u200b\u200bthe factory software contains averaged set of parameters, which can be changed to specific customer requirements. Adaptive regime, when "learning" to the owner's ride style, is not provided, but there is an opportunity to put them on hand to his requirements.

Typical refinement UAZ patriot for automatic transmission:

dynamic automatic transmission mode - maximum turns on each transmission, shock closure of frictional. Such a setup of automatic transmission will provide good dynamics, but will reduce the automatic transmission and increase gasoline consumption;
economical automatic transmission regime - a long period of operation on the fourth gear, a second hitch before the activation of the kykdaun, an early start of blocking the torque converter. According to reviews, it gives to achieve fuel economy in the mode of movement along the track - about 11.5 liters. per 100 km.

In the town

The UAZ clutch pedal on the "Automat" shows all the advantages of automatic transmission, eliminating the driver from the permanent cycles "clutch - transmission".

On the road

Here are some disadvantages of automatic transmission. Dynamics of UAZ Patriot with an automatic speed transmission 100 km / h good, but then the car becomes very leisurely, especially on the economy version of the box firmware. The automatic transmission for a long time does not want to switch from 4 steps even in kykdown and disconnected Overdrive mode. Out of passing vehiclesThus, it becomes pretty difficult, and even risky, especially at high speeds - the car may simply not have enough time to overclock. But after modifying the firmware, the box "is corrected", obediently lowering the steps during acceleration, and the dynamic characteristics are significantly improved.

Patriot with automatic transmission when driving on the highway is an important advantage: competently selected gear ratios of the box. At speeds in the "honeycomb", the tachometer arrow floats in the region of 2 thousand revolutions, and the engine works quite quietly (for example, up to 3 thousand, up to 3 thousand are opened at the MCPP.

On off-road

On asphalt and well-kept primers, the difference between "automatic" and "mechanical" UAZ is almost no. But the situation changes when the road requires a very smooth movement or additional thrust. In the Distribution of UAZ Patriot on the automatic transmission, you can enable lower transmission, release both pedals and just slowly go ahead, the automiformator automatic transformer additionally enhances the wheels transmitted to the wheels. It is impossible, as in the manual transmission, "burn" the clutch or force the wheels to slip, inactively working the gas pedal.

Those who came across off-road, know that the car on the "mechanics" can be pulled out from the dirt using the "Rashchka" method, switching the box forward-back. Automatic boxes to such attempts are negative. But it can be argued that, in general, on the off-road automatic transmission AISIN shows itself worthy, without overheating and extraneous noise.

The average consumption of gasoline at the "Patriot" with automatic transmission - about 14.9l. on hundred.

Legality of automatic transmission

According to new regulations, any remake of the car must be legalized. It can do:

dealer, for surcharge;
car owner, passing the procedure yourself.

Legalization of alterations on automatic transmission will take time and cash costs, even if you do it yourself. In practice, the owners of the UAZ with the automatic transmission are not engaged in this, since it is extremely difficult to distinguish the convened "patriot" from the factory, and the traffic police officers do not impose.

"For" and "against" automatic transmission

Arguments for putting automatic transmission:

convenience of driving;
smaller noise of the car;
saving the speakers similar to the fuel consumption, in comparison with the manual transmission;
the ability to modify the firmware to their needs;
"AUTOMA" makes a comfortable crossing off-road.

Against alterations:

high price installation "Automat";
if you do not form a modification of a car with automatic transmission, the police have the right to present a claim;
contract box, so its resource is unclear;
repair automatic transmission;
the box can exhibit non-radiation, and not always smoothly work.

On the network, and, especially on the forums dedicated to SUVs, many topics were devoted to the issue when the UAZ patriot with automatic transmission comes out. The chief Russian "jeep" survived many reincarnations, and "Patriot" can be called one of the most successful.

The first rumors that the new generation legendary car Receive automatic transmission appeared pretty long ago. However, by the leadership of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant, applications were not until 2015. A surge of activity caused information that model row will appear new crossoverAnd already quite popular Patriot will receive a version with automation. What promoted engineers to put on UAZ patriot automatic box?

First of all, market requirements. Compete with brands from South Korea And China has become much more complicated. They offer cars with fully drive and automatic at a reasonable price. At the same time, unlike the old good UAZ, these cars are equipped with modern safety and air conditioning in basic equipment.

All perturbations of fans of the Russian brand and the requirements to save the domestic auto industry stumble about reality. And she is such that a reasonable buyer will give money for the best value for the price, quality, comfort and safety.

Ulyanovsk engineers, in the same rumors, thought to put a new box at the beginning of zero. But the 1998 crisis, and then and 2008 threw these plans. The same reason stopped them in 2015. Now the car market and the economy as a whole allow you to hope for the implementation of an ambitious project.

After the financing of the project "Message" began, details appeared, and most importantly - the general concept of UAZs in the foreseeable future. Now on this platform will be able to collect more modern cars, topical on the modern automotive market.

At the same time, the total modernization is reported (yes, this is the answer to the Asian market) of the car. The patriot of the new generation should receive the engine corresponding to Euro-5, a couple of airbags (in front of the driver and front passenger). Update threatens the instrument panel and steering column. By the way, the steering wheel will not be UAZ, but imported. Parktronic also promise, help when starting on the rise and blocking the differential.

Also replaced planned the main pair. Now the gear ratio is not 4.11, but 4,625. UAZ engineers believed that this would increase the dynamics and make the engine less voracious.

Pluses of uzov with automatic

From extensive reasoning about how good to get a UAZ patriot with automatic transmission, let's turn to the facts. What is good automatics for the driver? After all, we all understand that the new box will reflect on the cost of the car.

The first reason why people buy cars with an automatic box - comfort when driving around the city. Constantly pulling the lever, breaking the mechanics, is quite tedious. The rate of ride in urban conditions is constantly changing. You will have time to curse the autodide, the plant and that day, when they sat down behind the wheel, while you reach the house to work and back. If UAZ was bought for trips outside the city, you also appreciate the convenience of the machine. When you have to go to country roads, where the soil is moving out with gravel and frank-off-road areas, the automation saves your nerves.

Acceleration on mechanics will not add you joy too. The automation will be good for the realization of the entire potential of new UAZ units. Descents and lifting will stop disturbing you.

UAZ was always carried away, but the speakers of the car - legend lack even in 2017. Removing delays characteristic of mechanical gearboxThis problem can be partially solved. Then the possibility of overtaking on the track will appear if it is provided by traffic rules for one or another road.

If earlier the adjustment of the thrust for leading wheels was complex, then the automation will smooth this problem. This will especially be noticeable when driving on snowdrifts, wet grass, to protect against slipping.

Disadvantages of automatic

Without a spoon, the trigger will not work in this review. So, we will analyze what cons will bring the car UAZ patriot automatic. Disputes between fans of mechanics and automation last year. At the same time, the arguments of both sides are quite reasonable. And we are not only about the larger value of the machine with automatic transmission.

Let's study every item in detail:

Maintenance of the "automatic" is more expensive by default. Costs will affect, above all, oils. If for some reason this node will fail, the driver will not be able to fix it on the road with his own hands. We will have to call the tow truck, transport the car to the service center, pay for expensive repair and perhaps even for replacement.
Some car owners do not like the load on the muscles and the bundling apparatus when driving in traffic jams. It is worth recognizing, the legs are tired very much, and nothing to do with it;
If the dynamics of driving is changing too often, the box - the machine can be retarded;
If you are stuck, it is useless to swing the car. The only chance for salvation is to pull out the car with a swan. But for this you need to have a different driver. If you are alone on off-road, it is possible for the Ministry of Emergency Situations to call with a helicopter;
Also installing automatic transmission on UAZ Patriot will create a lot of problems with towing a car. For example, run the engine will not work in this way. There are all chances to handle the transmission. Of course, modern boxes, in general, allow you to carry a car on a tug, but at a speed of no more than 30 km / h and for small distances.

Many "jeepovodov" arises a natural question - is it worth the heap of the selection? Especially, given the fact that an increase in fuel consumption is already predicted, an average of 1.5 l. / 100 km. Run. Uya and before were not particularly economical cars, why exacerbate the situation? After all, we do not have Venezuela, and full tank It's not a penny.

Another point - how to interact nEW ACAP With UAZ engines and electronic distribution Hyundai-Dymos? It is likely that the manufacturer will learn for several years.

Features and characteristics of UAZ Patriot

What characteristics will have a UAZ patriot on the machine? Three years ago, in addition to the dispensing box mentioned above, the steering power steering appeared. So there are all the chances that other useful additions will be other than automatic transmission.

Recall the story of a popular model. "Patriots" are produced since 2005. They changed quite good, but imperfect technologically Cars UAZ 3162 "Sixir." What is the difference between "Patriot" from classic UAZ, which is now called proud name "Hunter"?

The Military Rescue Expeditionary Jeep could not perform those functions that were required for operation in urban conditions. It would be more, given that the project is developed in the seventies, and only slightly upgraded every decade. The Russian jeep was often compared with tanks, which we are extremely rarely invented and collected from scratch. Modernization costs much cheaper and carry much less risks.

Regarding "Hunter", UAZ 3162 - quite modern crossover In the all-metal body. A massive five-door does not look archaeism on the roads. It is more convenient, spacious. An impressive luggage compartment appeared, in which, if desired, you can put the seats for four passengers. "Patriot" put both gasoline and diesel engines, So far, with manual manual.

During its existence, this SUV managed to undergo many changes. The first made a year after the development. Put adequate quality starter with the generator, changed the upholstery and even the pedals made more convenient.

Two years later, the engineers in Ulyanovsk decided that the jeep is the time to update the stove and make more modern ventilation, and by 2009 they became optionally offering parking sensors, an electroralk and a central lock with a remote control. By 2012, the company ripe on the first large-scale restyling,

Now UAZ Patriot can be bought in three grades:

"Classic";
"Comfort" is the same, but with an audio and an electric car;
Limited is a more advanced version, auxiliary ABS, air conditioning, a parking sensor and an electric hatch.

Patriot power units

In the history of the popular car there were three engines - two gasoline and one diesel. The first is quite good, has a volume of 2.7 liters and a capacity of 128 hp. With 4600 revolutions per minute. The unit has a completely decent torque -210 nm at 2500 revolutions. And this "fiery motor" is not a relic of the Soviet past, but a completely relevant option, sharpened under the Euro-4 standard, with fuel injection and hydrocompensators. On each cylinder 4 valves. Its only minus - high demands on the quality of gasoline and oil, and a higher cost of maintenance and repair, compared to those engines that were put on the old UAZ.

For a while, Ulyanovsk motorists could buy a similar car with a diesel engine from Iveco on 116 "horses". Import Aggregate Omelo amount of 2.3 liters. But since 2012, his domestic turbocharged Diesel ZMZ 514 was supplanted. Let him be 3 hp. Weaker than the foreign analogue, but the same was the same, and, in general, I liked the owners of "patriots".

In comparison with many Western and Asian jeeps, the Russian SUV is not so voracious. For instance, petrol aggregate Consumes 11.5 l / 100 km. Run, and diesel - 9.5 liters. But this is not in the city, but in a mixed cycle.

Suspension, chassis, safety

Front suspension of this model spring, dependent, equipped with a stabilizer transverse stability. For the rear axle, semi-elliptical springs are used. It is possible to indignant for a long time, arguing that the design has long been outdated. But for the car whose task is to conquer russian off-road, you need this chassis, simple and reliable.

"Patriot", although it is a four-wheel drive SUV, can not boast of permanent-wheel drive to all 4 wheels. Front axle Connects, and the two-stage rattage is equipped with a lower transmission. According to the owners of such cars, such a scheme is fully justified.

As for the protection of the driver and the passenger, the first couple of years with them was tight. The only thing that could offer buyers is a classic three-point safety belt. That is, you had every chance to break your head on the steering column at an accident. Then there are airbags, ABS, EBD and a steering shaft, breaking at strike.

So, the closer the release of UAZ patriot with automatic transmission, the more perfect the design of the Russian SUV becomes. No, of course, it will not be a domestic Range Rover, Yes, and the price niche, which the UAZ jeep occupies does not allow you to stuff his expensive "hardware".

Already, experts consider how much the "patriot" will rise in price after installation new box. If now basic equipment It costs from 550 thousand rubles, then for the same with the automatic transmission will have to pay at least 100 - 150 thousand more. And this is if other changes affecting the cost will not be.

Competitors will be a lot. So that domestic manufacturer There will have to make efforts to make the car relevant for the market in 2017 - 2018.

The main opponent with whom will have to be removed, it is notorious Duster. Do not discount Niva from the bills and Chevrolet, which has long become folk car. Especially hard will be in the secondary market. For example, the "Shniva" of 2010 with a machine gun costs about 260-270 thousand rubles. This is for cars in excellent condition. Per new car You will give the same 600 thousand. At the same time, everyone understood perfectly, who has advantage in terms of comfort in the cabin. Of course, these are two completely different on the purpose of the car, and it is more logical to compare UAZ with LADA 4 × 4.

Does the automatic transmission of UAZ patriot?

This logical question arises in the heads of many Russian motorists. From the point of view of marketing, it is possible that this course will be justified for the Ulyanovsk manufacturer who has confused a significant part of the target audience. But can the renewed "patriot" can justify expectations? The car with the machine is not waiting for the first year, and during this time she had competitors, like Great Wall Haval H3 I. Geely Emgrand. X7. Yes, they are somewhat more expensive, but on the head they are around equipping and comfort. And the 6-stage Emgrand Machine looks quite convincing.

Who is the target audience of the coming updated "Patriot"? It is about the same as "Tagazov", SsangYong and mentioned "Chinese". That is, these are people who can lay out for a jeep from 550 thousand to 1 million rubles. Naturally, they all want to get maximum opportunities for this money.

The SUV of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant under the model refers to the number of widely represented cars of this class in our country. It is no secret that the main purpose of such transport is the operation in off-road or poor-quality coating, as well as when moving in sands, snow-covered areas, swampy lowers, etc.

Immediately it is worth saying that earlier the patriot on the machine did not go from the investment plant conveyor. When driving out of roads, it is difficult to pull out such a car from the quagger, and it should be towed very carefully. However, some interest on the part of motorists to patriots with automatic transmission throughout recent years yet there is. It is rightly assumed that such a car will be simpler and more comfortable in management. And if you think about raising dynamic characteristics, it becomes quite justified by the release of a new modification.

The layout for many years was quite conservative. However, the plans of the manufacturer plans gradually bring an SUV to modern world sneakers of all-wheel drive cars. The changes have already touched the work of the transfer box: now it is not levers to control transmission, but a selector switching system developed by the German company Daimos.

The automatic transmission will obviously be issued with the new gasoline engine, which is planned to equip a turbochargent. It is also assumed that its volume will be reduced, but the power will increase to 330 hp. Installation new Transmission It will take place directly at the Ulyanovsky factory, and the number of transmissions will not be less than 5. In addition, the new concept of the company Daimos, which developed the "distribution" for UAZ, provides for a fundamentally different principle of operation.

Thanks inter-axis differential You can connect a downgrade or front axle. The new unit has become much more functional, and is also designed for longer operation. For comparison, it is enough to remember which load was previously experienced the front wheels of the SUV, and the elements of the drive system were subjected accelerated wear. To place an automatic box I had to think about the new place allocated under disposal box. An additional advantage was the change in the transfer numbers in the downside row. The power quality of the engine should only increase due to the change in the transfer proportion for the main pair to the 4,625 indicator.

Video review of SUV UAZ Patriot with automatic transmission:

The main advantages of an automatic transmission

In Western countries, such a type of transmission began to occupy a greater segment of production in relation to the "mechanics". In the post-Soviet space, the expansion of the "automaton" area is moving at a slower pace. However, the plans for the installation of a box of a machine gun on UAZ Patriot are forced to remember which major advantages such a transmission is endowed.

Clear thing that automatic transmission, and even on the SUV, will be different operational capabilities. It will be especially noticeable when driving off road, which is so often found in many domestic regions. Nevertheless, many of the existing owners of patriots use it for trips through the city streets. For them, the automatic box could be a decent alternative. Therefore, imagine its positive and negative sides In relation to UAZ Patriot with automatic transmission.

Video review of the car UAZ Patriot with automatic transmission:

Let's start with the description of the main advantages of the design. Among them:

Weaknesses applying automatic transmission on patriots

Despite a number of listed advantages, automatic transmissions possess the disadvantages. They are just doing the issue of operation of the SUV with it rather controversial and requiring a detailed discussion.

To the most characteristic weaknesses relate:

since specifically, the UAZ patriot is designed for operation in complex road and climatic conditions, then the automatic transmission may not be fully responsible for all necessary requirements. Any malfunctions in its work is hardly possible to recover with their own hands.

Features Box Machine for Contemporary SUV

First of all, we note ease of operation. After all, car increased passibility It is more difficult to manage than a conventional sedan due to dimensions, enlarged road Suit etc. With a box, an automatic simply simplified the control process, especially for considerable drivers.

Many believe that the SUV with such a transmission will be worse to feel on the off-road, for which he, in fact, is intended. However, according to experienced experts, this is not so. Modern all-terrain vessels are equipped with a number of useful innovation: anti-blocking wheels, descending systems from the mountain and on rises, prevent overturning and others. Thanks to these options, it is possible to better reveal the potential of the car with an automatic box on off-road.

Flexible adjustment of traction will be useful in cases where it is necessary to overcome the complex areas of roads or weather conditions leave much to be desired. In such situations, the UAZ with an automatic box simplified the potential reaction rate for the driver and at the same time would not allow the wheelchairing.

Little conclusion

The most important thing is that the transmission automatic gives the ability to control the steering wheel with both hands. Also, you do not need to be distracted on your feet, and it is very convenient to remove your car for the maximum torque. Answer the question when it comes out from the automatic transmission, it will not work more accurately. However, the court according to the statements of official representatives of the plant, it may well begin in the coming months.
