"Cheri-Bonus A13": reviews, description, specifications, manufacturer. Sino-Ukrainian "Bonus" from Chery Nice cars Chery bonus a13

The Chinese car industry in our country is becoming increasingly familiar to the mass audience of consumers, successfully competing with domestic vases and used "Germans". One of these bestsellers can rightly consider Chery Bonus. This car has proven its competitiveness and has already acquired a new generation.

Specifications and operational data Chery Bonus (A13)

In China, the bonus is called A13 and its roots must be the second generation of Volkswagen Golf. In the distant nineties, the Chinese acquired a license to use the chassis from serving their golf and Seat Toledo, soon putting it on the basis of his Amulet, and then Bonus. Formally, this is a car class in +. But the body of Liftbek makes it very practical, so on the capacity it can safely compete with a golf class.

The overall body length is 4269 mm, the width is 1686 mm, the height is 1492 mm. Car wheel base - 2527 mm. The road clearance, according to the data producer, reaches 162 mm, but the real tests of the Russian version showed a slightly different digit - 142 mm at the bottom point. This bottom point, by the way, is the exhaust system. In addition, the standard configuration does not protect the crankcase, with its purchase it is better not to delay. It also applies to mudguards and rugs in the salon, trunk.

Video Review and Test Drive Cherie Bonus

Under the hood of the machine is installed by a single Motor of Austro-Chinese development - 1,5-liter gasoline "Atmospheric" of the ACECO family. It is a 16-valve, with one camshaft, has a power of 109 hp. at 140 nm of torque. Similarly, there is no choice and in terms of transmissions - only 5-speed "mechanics". Such a tandem accelerates the car from zero to hundreds for considerable 12 seconds, and the "maximum speed" is 160 km / h. Fuel consumption on the track - 5.3 l / 100 km, mixed - 6.5 l / 100 km, but in reality you need to add more about liters to get real consumption in the combined cycle. The volume of the tank is 50 liters, so that without refueling it will turn out to get up to 900 km.

Italian design Cherie Bonus

It is worth it to get used to the fact that the Chinese ordered the design of their cars from the famous Italian studio. So, for A13, the body was designed by Torino Design specialists. As a result, the exterior came out very original. This is especially true of the backs of the back of the Lifbeca. Visually, the bonus is very similar to the sedan, which is well suited for the mentality of Russian buyers.

Headlight headlights are somewhat nostalgically - in the view, you can find out the old Golf or Polo. Inside the car also looks very good: the gaps are minimal, the cabin plastic is made under the skin, the front console is concisely and stylish.

Honest test Drive Chery Bonus

The regular folding key is very convenient. The only button on the keychain opens and closes the trunk lid. There is no external handle, and the metal part rises together with glass - like the Skoda Octavia family. Thus, the luggage compartment gives a lot of space: the width of the opening is about 1 m, the height of the trunk is 60 cm, the length of the seats is 80 cm. You can easily fold the seats and get the opportunity to transport the long periods (3 m closes free) or arrange a double bed in car. Under the floor of the trunk found a place for a date (or a full-size wheel). Falsefol is very harpsky - you need to be careful that it is not for nothing to sell.

Noise insulation of the engine compartment is good, the motor will penetrate into the salon "voice" only on high speed. More complaints causes noise and knock from the suspension. Especially annoying is the sound of the front racks when braking.

In general, the suspension is very tough. Front stands the usual MacPherson on transverse levers, with a transverse stability stabilizer, and a semi-dependent beam. At the same time, the back suspension settings are such that the carved machine is rather noticeable. It easily eats about 7 cm without that very mediocre road lumen. As a result, moving irregularity, the driver first gets a blow to the spine, and then feels the rocking of the stern with a large amplitude.

Noise can irritate when switching gear. Another portion of indignation at the spoiled drivers occurs due to the inelasticity of the motor: to keep it in a tone, it is necessary to twist the crankshaft almost to the red zone, since otherwise, if you switch before, the knuckles of the valves are clearly heard. The most unpleasant that the moor's lethargy is observed on 2 and 3 transmissions, which are most often used in urban crowd.

You should not be tuned on high-quality materials and when inspecting the interior, as plastic, although it looks neat, is actually cheap, it has a mild, "oak" sound when tapping. Leaves to desire the best and roof finish.

Selection of seat upholstery is very well. In the front seat there will be clear problems with the landing in rising drivers, as the height of the doorway is small here. The same applies to the windshield. Reviews prevent quite wide rack. Even worse the visibility back, as the rear window has a strong slope and the strip of real lumen turns out to be insufficient. You have to rotate with reversing movement.

But with the Ergonomics of the cabin, everything is in order. The buttons of the regular radio tape recorders. Seat heating control is located on the side walls of the central console. Between the seats there is one cup holder. On the gallery in general enough space. But if there is almost always a stock in the lap, then passengers with a rise of 1.9 m and above will have to bend so as not to get a blow when the bump is found.

What is characterized by hatchback

The version of the Hatchback A13 in Russia is derived in a separate model and called Chery Very. In length, the car has 4139 mm, which is 130 mm less compared to Liftback. This is the main difference between the models. If the volume of the Bonus trunk is 370 l, then VERY is more than 10 liters. Additionally, a wiper and spoiler appeared on the rear window. The curb weight of the Liftback is 1200 kg, while the hatchback is heavier to 75 kg.

Owners: Main advantages and disadvantages of this car

One of the main mines of Chery A13 its owners most often call a rigid front suspension, which significantly worsens the comfort of movement on country roads. Along with this, there is often lack of clearance - you can hurt something silencer. Be sure to recommend installing the crankcase immediately. Does not leave many indifferent and the fact that the rear part of the car is strongly seated under load, which makes it use to use spacers in the springs. For the same reason, the car has small stability with sharp rebuilding and turning on decent speed - it is very easy to break into the skid. Partially corrects the problem of buying more expensive versions with ABS and EBD.

In addition, on the bodies, the trunk can openly open. A similar problem is inherent in and glove in the cabin. As already mentioned earlier, the cabin plastic is cheap and at the same time it smells unpleasant after purchase. Unusually small many wells of devices seem, discontent can cause red backlight scales. The steering wheel of the bonus has a relatively small cross section, which is also not always convenient. Some surprise can cause a USB connector on a regular radio, as this is not a standard type, but mini USB.

On the other hand, the car has a lot of bright "pluses":

• large trunk with the ability to open it from the inside using a special cable;
• with a calm ride, the motor demonstrates good efficiency;
• the engine compartment boas the competent organization of the useful space, the generator is set high, which reduces the risk of corrosion;
• conveniently arranged buttons and regulators in the cabin;
• air conditioner works canceled;
• there is backlighting doors;
• doors have 3 fixation positions;
• the second row of seats is folded.

Tuning Chery Bonus: Wheel disks, seats covers, mats, etc.

In most cases, tunersBonus I.Very buy:

• sliers, mudguards;
• headquaps, engine protection;
• deflectors on the hood and windows;
• seat Covers;
• rugs in the salon and trunk: polyurethane, textiles;
• lED daytime running lights;
• headlight protection.

Some linse the clearance by setting the wheels with dimension 175/70 R14 and 185/65 R14 instead of the factory 185/60 R15. But setting the tires 185/65 R15 is not recommended strictly, as the risk of friction on the wall of the wheel arch appears with the subsequent corrosion of the metal.

New Cherry Bonus 3 (A19)

Following the A13 model, the Chinese have released a similar sedan to our market with an A19 index. Formally, this is Chery Bonus 3, although in parallel with it is for sale and the original bonus. True, he recently acquired a restyled version. In technical terms, A19 is not much different: the same suspension design on the former chassis, the same one-liter ACTECO engine at 109 "horses", which aggregates with a 5-speed manual transmission. But Chery's leadership promises to quickly equip a novelty "machine", as well as expand the motor gamut.

The main difference of the car - design. The exterior, as before, the Italians are developing for Cheri, so the success of the style does not have to be surprised. The outlines became more stricter, the exterior looks much more solid. Overall dimensions, mm: 4450 × 1748 × 1493. The inner world of Bonus 3 is also completely changed and began to look richer. The volume of the trunk of the sedan is 508 liters, and the back of the rear sofa is in parts. Curb weight - 1208 kg, that is, 8 kg more than that of Liftback A13. Significantly improved noise insulation. Companion in this section can cause anything "sound" of the wheeled arches.

For Russia, 2 configurations were proposed. VersionStandard for 420,000 rubles. Includes:

• radio with usb;
• ABS with EBD;
• airbags for the driver and passenger;
• immobilizer, central locking;
• full salon electrobact;
• power steering;
• air conditioning;

• driver armrest;
• heated seats.

When paying extra chargeComfort (534 900 rub.) You get:

• parking sensor;
• alloy wheels;
• leather seats and steering wheel;
• adjusting the driver's seat in 6 directions.

How the bonus passed the crash test

And A13, and A19 were tested only by the C-NCAP system (China). However, since 2012, it was significantly approached by Euroncap, as the manufacturers of the Middle Kingdom are increasingly referring to the Western European market. The only important difference of C-NCAP is ignoring a side strike of a pillar. If briefly, then A13 and A19 received 4 stars out of 5 possible. This is a very good result.

Chery Bonus 2019 releases is a car, the release of which started in China in the distant year 2010. Initially, the vehicle had a different name - Chery Fulwin 2 and was produced on the basis of an already existing auto model Amulet. Amulet, in turn, was also created on the prototype, which was a car of Seat Tantero, released in 1991.

In 2011, Chery Bonus came to the Russian market, hitting the potential consumer with its availability. Of course, the model range of great popularity, as the company itself, the Russian people did not raise, in view of the fact that the Chinese manufacturers at that time did not actively demonstrated their own products to other world countries.

It is important to notice that in contrast to similar cars that are for Chery Bonus, in fact, competitors, the machine provides the consumer of each country all existing equipment at the relevant cost. That is, there are significant differences between the car purchased in China and Russia, as a rule, no.

Speaking about Chery Bonus, such an important aspect is impossible to leave without a design. The main feature of Cherry Bonus, although it is peculiar, it is expressed in the fact that the car simultaneously sweats on the hatchback and sedan. The official car refers to this class as Liftbek.

Appearance

Externally, Chery Bonus presents the eyes of a potential consumer a very compact body, with small dimensions. In principle, such dimensions are not at all the reason to draw up negative reviews about cars.

The dimensions of this vehicle are presented in the following sizes of the machine:

• number of seats - 5;
• length - 4269 mm;
• width - 1686 mm;
• height - 1492 mm;
• road clearance - 162 mm.

In general, the size of the car body is directly indicated by its main dignity, which, by the way, is not such for some motorists.

The most remarkable elements of the exterior are the following features of the appearance of Cherie A13 Bonus:

• clear body lines emphasizing small size;
• slightly released from behind the wheel arches;
• alloy wheels;
• auxiliary stop signal;
• rear fog lamp;
• front fog lights (in expensive versions);
• rear view mirrors painted under the main body color with mechanical adjustment (in top-end equipment, with automatic).

As can be seen, many modern, many more familiar, details that make the car are convenient for use are present in the external equipment of the car.

If, with a desire to buy a car, there are concerns for a small level of security and poor equipment, it is recommended to see the crash test of the car.

Interior design

From the inside hatchback Chery bonus is no less attractive than outside. The interior is surprising high quality and ergonomically. Contrary to compactness, the car's salon provides a sufficient amount of free space to the driver and passengers.

The following details deserve the greatest attention in the interior design:

• tissue covering of all seats;
• door upholstery with high quality plastic;
• upholstery of the cabin in the dark color scheme;
• plastic dashboard;
• upholstery ceiling machine from high-quality synthetic material.

Each mentioned feature of the finish equally applies to all existing configurations of Cheri Bonus Hatchback and, therefore, does not affect the total cost of the vehicle.

In addition to the above, the car's salon offers the consumer with many additional systems and functions affecting both the level of comfort and not the convenience of management. Their number includes:

• fastening for the baby chair isofix;
• air conditioning;
• front and rear windows on an electronic drive;
• hydraulic steering traction;
• electronic adjustment of the level of inclination of headlights;
• remote opening system of the luggage compartment;
• fault alert system;
• steering column, with the possibility of adjusting height;
• information display on the dashboard providing the driver with all the necessary information about the state of the vehicle (fuel consumption, mileage meter, distance traveled, electronic clock).

During the first appearance of this machine, the above functions could surprise the potential consumer and car enthusiasts. However, the initially stated price, at one time, greatly scared the people, despite the appearance of Chery Bonus whose photos still amazed.

Video reviews and crash Test video allow you to fully make sure the reliability of the car's salon.

Specifications

Despite the fact that Chery Bonus reviews are mostly positive, for many remains a mystery, why the car does not have a wide audience of lovers. Of course, people are well acquainted with the automotive themes know about the initially high price, but some consider the technical characteristics of the main problem - it is not at all.

For the Cheri A13 model, the Hatchback Bonus was developed by one single power unit, which provides very good, at the time of the first appearance, power indicators. In general, even now the engine can be removed with some modern units.

The motor provides the following indicators:

• fuel type - gasoline;
• working volume - 1.5 liters;
• power - 109 horsepower;
• maximum speed - 160 km / h;
• overclocking time up to 100 km / h - 16 seconds;

In more detail to study the features of power and dynamics, it is possible to test or watching the crash test on the Internet. It is important to note that the crash test video demonstrates not only the technical capabilities of the machine, but also the endurance of the body. In principle, it is also possible to limit the test drive video Cherry Bonus.

The next review is devoted to the Chinese car Cherry model Bonus in the body of a hatchback, which is better known as Cherie A13. At the end of the review, in addition to the traditional test drive car, Cheri Bonus, will be presented with an informative crash test.

The crash test was conducted by a specialized agency, in compliance with all the required norms. In addition, the crash test will allow to study the weaknesses of the machine, which will subsequently help with the choice of used instance. Also study the left-handed reviews about Cheri Bonus.

What I want to say first of all, a car with such a body is known in many countries and, by the way, referred to him in different ways. For example, in Ukraine, this is a forz, except for the name, nothing in the car has changed. Therefore, speaking about the bonus, we will mean other representatives.

The front is highlighted by the classic grille of the radiator, why it is so close attention to it - most likely due to the fact that this is the only detail that is somehow positioned with the family-style concern.

Optics as a whole was borrowed from its Korean prototype, only with partial shares of change. The bumper turned out to be monolithic, with a huge share of the air intake department, with a large grid.

In the lateral part of the hatchback, it turned out modest, even chopped out. But, in principle, this is a style, and no one expected something amazing from the Chinese. As soon as prominent climbing, which are flawed in the rear plane and distinguish the wheeled arches.

Feed in terms of design is empty, it really is not enough of something, somehow not catchy and dull everything. Huge as for hatchback lanterns discovering even in the side part. Bumper turned out simply huge. In general, nothing remarkable.

Interior

In Chery Bonus, the general details of the design with other models are even clearly visible. If the hatchback has such a promotional design, its variant of the sedan is much more advanced in this regard. Why was made such a not justified choice, it is difficult to judge.

The Speedometer Panel is welcomed by a small monitor, an exact on-board computer on a completely monochrome basis. The rest of the classic "wells" with a pleasant backlight.

The steering wheel in a modern style, however, except for the three spoke cross section, little reminds about the modern way. He has no functionality, with the exception of adjustment in height.

The central division of the console is more pragmatic, here already made focus on some comfort for the driver. But still, the specifics of the placement of devices are not completely thought out. The same radio, there is no questions for her, but the bullets with the climate and deflectors are surprising. So archaic and no prudent placement is too noticeable.

Seats do not possess the comfort of the landing, but adequately hold on five passengers. Perhaps the back will be closed, but not critically. Front pleasant side support, it is a pity that it is not emphasized by a reliable pillow.

Specifications

Specifications in terms of the power of diversity will not receive. Only one engine was placed, alternatives to which will not provide in the near future. A gasoline unit equipped with 1.5 liter working volume, which allows in the best conditions to generate about 109 hp.

In principle, given the indicators of competitors, this motor has more opportunities even in terms of tuning modernization. But, it is worth understanding that any improvements in indicators lead to an inevitable reduction in the resource, which is evidenced by testing.

What else? The hatchback is equipped with only a manual box, perhaps in the future a machine will be offered, but so far so.

Suspension, and most importantly, the whole "truck" of its own production, on the same platform fasten and sedan. In principle, the characteristics of the chassis work are all satisfied, at least about Chery Bonus A13 Reviews in the negative key of the suspension are rare. Yes, and in the case of anything, spare parts for Cheri Bonus Hatchback A13 are presented in a huge amount. In terms of electronic rims, the machine will please only with standard ABS and EBDs that are available in the top.

In addition, the steering mechanism in this case is already provided in the "base" by the hydraulic cell. Also available parking sensors, but it is also available in the top. More electronic assistants, assistants manufacturer does not offer. In essence, the car is a representative of the budget segment, and according to the current standards it is not commensurable luxury.

Configuration and prices

For the domestic market, the car is currently not supplied, due to certain reasons, since the Russian versions of Chery Bonus gathered in Ukraine. Now the owner of Cherie Bonus wants to get at least 350,000 rubles, this is the price for the top package.

In general, when choosing a car, it is worth considering the state first of all, at least for Chery Bonus reviews are not bad enough. Three configurations were offered on the Russian market.

The price of basic, selected to the mark of 400,000 rubles., Cost for the period of 2012. In the basic equipment included: fabric interior, air conditioning, fog, pillow, steering wheel adjustment, immobilizer, headlight corrector, rear fog.

In the top to the listed couple of assistants, another pillow, rear windows, heated seats, audio system, as well as parking sensors, heated mirrors, casting, music with 6 speakers.

Now in Russia there is a wide selection of cars of different brands. You can choose a car for every taste and wallet. The machine of the budget segment is very popular in our country. Many believe that the most accessible cars of the VAZ brand are. However, it is not. For many years, our market confidently "storming" Chinese manufacturers. And today we will look at one of these instances. This is "Cheri-Bonus A13". Description, reviews, photos, specifications - further in our article.

general characteristics

What is this car? "Cheri-Bonus A13" - a C-class machine, producing serially since 2008. The car is going to several plants in different countries (Ukraine, China and Iran). The Chinese car "Cheri-Bonus" is produced in several bodies. This is Liftbek and five-door hatchback.



Design

The exterior of the car is quite pleasant. The machine does not look kill. Front - compact grille with chrome edging and large lanterns. Below is a wide air intake and small fog lights.

However, it is impossible to love this car only for a pleasant design. Many owners complain of a very weak body. According to reviews, "Cheri-bonus A13" has a thin and non-corrosion metal. Very quickly rotten wings, thresholds, arches. Rust is the main enemy of the Chinese car. Moreover, this applies not only to Cherie. More or less well protected from corrosion only cars worth from a million. "Cherie A13" is the still the budget segment. But the Chinese could save on metal not so globally - the owners complain.

Sizes, clearance

If we talk about the sedan, the total length of the car is 4.27 meters. Hatchback has a length of 13 centimeters shorter. As for the rest of the sizes, Cheri-Bonus A13 in the body of the sedan is identical with Hatchback dimensions. So, the width and height is 1.69 and 1.49 meters, respectively.



Road clearance of the car, according to owners, small. Its value is only 14 centimeters. It aggravates the situation also the fact that the lower point is the exhaust pipe and lambda probe. In case of damage to the oxygen sensor, the "check" will certainly light up.

Cheri-Bonus A13: Interior

Inside the machine looks like any representative of the budget segment - fabric interior, a simple panel and shapeless seats. Of the features - the sports red lights of the instrument panel. Note that using plastic black tones, the salon began to look not so cheap. But you need to note the disadvantages. The most important minus, which marks reviews is the quality of plastic. Since the car is cheaper than "grants" (we will talk in detail about prices and equipment at the end of the article), the manufacturer did not bother with respect to its softness. But besides the plastic is hard, it makes a characteristic caustic smell. This is especially felt when the car stands for some time in the sun.



The following drawback is bad noise insulation. It is practically absent in the car. Very often, the owners independently sneak the body - the floor, the ceiling and the door, disassembled the salon almost to the screw.

The rear sofa is designed for three, but with comfort, only two will be spread here. Of the advantages worth noting a high roof. Even the tall passengers will not be drunk their heads about the ceiling. But if everything is fine with free space, then with the architectural seats is not very. And this applies to both the front and rear rows. For long distances they can disturb the back pain. Although the driver's seat is configured in many directions, it is convenient to call it too, alas, it is impossible.

Trunk.

The car has a small volume of the trunk. Its value is 380 liters. But if necessary, you can fold the back of the rear sofa. As a result, the trunk volume will expand to 1300 and 1,400 liters in the case of Liftback and Hatchback. In this case there will be no smooth floor. And the trunk opens in two ways - with the buttons or with a keychain.

Cheri-Bonus A13: Specifications

Unfortunately, the Chinese manufacturer did not provide the choice of power plants. The engine in Cheri-Bonus A13 is always used alone - this is a gasoline four-cylinder engine with a working volume of 1.5 liters. In this case, the engine has a good power for such a volume - 109 horsepower.

From the pleasant features "Cheri-Bonus A13" reviews noted the fact that the motor was developed together with the Austrian AVL firm. While the motor has good power, it easily digesors the 92nd gasoline. As for the dynamics, it is quite good. Until hundreds of car accelerates in 11.9 seconds. The maximum speed is 160 kilometers per hour.



Transmission here is also alone. This is a mechanical five-speed gearbox. Fuel consumption at the car is acceptable. In the city, the car spends not more than 10 liters, beyond - 5.8. In a mixed cycle, the car consumes 7.2 liters.

Chassis

It is worth saying that this car was built on the platform of the Cheri-Amulet car platform. At one time, the latter was constructed on the basis of Semate Toledo 90s. The suspension scheme remained the same. In the front of the MacPherson racks with a transverse stabilizer, and the back is a semi-dependent beam. Brakes - disk front and drum back. Steering - Rake with a hydraulic agent.



How does this car behave on the road? The suspension is generally well working out irregularities. Yes, the car does not swim, like barge, but not too tough. From the strong drawbacks "Cheri-Bonus A13" reviews marked the filling of the suspension. The car feels bad at speed. It is very dangerous. In terms of manageability, "Chinese" will give ore our "dozen" with a ragged suspension. Many owners say that it is very scary to go on overtaking. The car in a kee literally throws from the side to the side.

Frequent problems

Since the production of this car saved the most, you should not expect special quality from it. The car has many "childhood diseases". So, the owners after 10-15 thousand kilometers appear rust spots on the lid of the trunk. After a heavy rain under the floor rug, water accumulates. Whistles generator. The shrus boot is simply crackling. On cars with ABS there are difficulties with the replacement of wheel bearings. The suspension itself is fragile and does not withstand our pits. Often questions arise on wiring. Fluff electric windows, central locking.



By the way, when the air conditioner is turned on, the car stops dynamically riding. Pleet glass in the cabin, lightlight bulbs burn out. Bumper cracks from the slightest hit. Barchlite ABS sensor. On the mileage of 30 thousand there are problems with clutch. Winter creaks plastic. And such problems in the car mass - say the reviews of the owners.

Prices, configuration

Due to the impressive location of production, the Chinese "Chery" comes to Russia without duties. Therefore, the car has a rather attractive price. The cost of the machine begins from 390 thousand rubles. At the same time, basic equipment is pretty good. According to reviews, "Cheri-Bonus A13" in the elementary version is appointed much better than cars of the VAZ brand. The initial configuration includes:

Outcome and comparison with competitors

So, we looked at what is the car "Cheri-Bonus A13". What competitors have this car? This can be attributed only to several models. This is "Chevrolet Aveo" and "Lada-Granta". But it should be noted right away that their price will always be higher. What is better to choose? There is no unambiguous answer to this question. Each chooses between quality and savings. If you want to get the most cheap car, it is worth considering the purchase of Cheri-Bonus A13. But you need to understand that this car does not have protection against corrosion, and also gets bad estimates when crash test (this is not surprising, because the platform got from Cheri-amulet). If you want a car hopefully and stronger, it is worth choosing "Chevrolet-Aveo". This car is not worse than "Lacetti", while not so quickly rotates like a Chinese analogue. "Granta" can be considered to buy in case there are fear of finding parts. But as the practice has shown, it is not difficult to find the necessary details on Aveo. As for the "Cheri", everything is more complicated here. Details are not at all cheaper, and their quality is much worse.

Thus, the Chinese manufacturer presented candy in a beautiful wrapper, but with a dubious stuffing. Do not mindlessly chase savings. As practice shows and numerous reviews, expect from the "Cherry" any reliability. This machine is although simple in the device, but will make even an experienced mechanic driver.
