L with car. What is one horsepower? Features of the determination of engine power from different cars. Tax payroll for the car

the main / Engine

Previously, the trees were more, and the sun brighter, and the cars pulled better - remember, 20 years ago 115 hp It was enough for the heart to go to the heels, and the car is behind the horizon. Now other times and 200-strong motors do not impress the impressions of powerful. "Does not pull" - the owner of the new car crushes. And he doesn't mind that it is not in power and not in volume - but perhaps the fact that the numbers on paper do not correspond to real indicators. It is written - 100 horsepower, and in reality - less than 100. It is written that overclocking is 9 seconds from the place to "hundreds", but in fact more than 13. How can it be? Now we will tell.

At first there were rumors: on car forums periodically slipped information that in individual brands, and more precisely - in specific manufacturers, the motor power does not always correspond to the stated indicators. Then there were facts: contacting the specialists, we got a clear answer: Yes, such facts take place. Naturally, we decided to figure out or confirm, or refute this information.

Well, then the intrigue began: immediately several dealers, having learned why we take the car, at the last moment they refused to provide it. I had to go for a trick: instead of those brands that rumors run, we took their "clones", with the same motors. And sent to the power metering stand. If you think, you can guess what brands are we talking about if "clones" were played by Skoda and Kia.


Skoda Rapid Equipped with the "volophilixwage" motor that can be found on cars of different brands
Rio "in the database" is equipped with very powerful engine: Among the "state employees" 123 liters. p. Discontinued with volume 1.6 are almost a record

We sing brave madness, we sing: Skoda and Kia dealers understood what they walked. We realized that the consequences could be given to the fact that in the MOTOR MOTOR, which was still running a car, lacking a couple of three, and then a dozen "horses". But cars provided without any conditions. And waited - with the phone in one hand and with Validol to another.

For measurements, we went to one of the oldest and authoritative companies in Belarus. Her owner, Andrei Batchko, is well known in the Belarusian motor racing, especially in the rally. And through his dinostite, almost all powerful cars In the republic - both serial and created for motor racing. The inertial dynamometric stand Dynavtech allows measurements on vehicles with any type of drive - front, rear, complete, high-speed range up to 260 km / h.

The process of measurement occurs: the car exposes on inertial drums, and is fixed in front and rear belts. Two powerful fans are summed up to the radiator grille to provide the necessary air flow. Next, the motor is launched, and starts spinning the drums to maximum speedwhich is achieved on the penultimate, direct transmission. The drums have a certain inertia - it is according to how quickly the engine will be able to unwind them up to a certain speed, its real torque is determined. And after overclocking to the maximum, neutral turns on, and it is measured by the elevation - by how long the drums will rotate the drive wheels with their inertia, transmission losses are determined. Following the tests, both parameters are compared with a special program, and the engine power "on the flywheel" is calculated - that is, those data that all automakers indicate technical data.

Skoda Rapid with 110-strong gasoline engine and 5-speed mechanical box Transmissions. Air conditioning is turned off, ESP - too, the motor is warm to operating temperature, Outdoor - 20 degrees Celsius. Forward.

Although Rapid does not sound threateningly, like a supercar, in the course of the measurement I want to move away and sideways. The front wheels are bright rotate the drums, the tires are already squeezed from the speed, the vehicle is pulled by belts twisted, as if it tries to break down, and the speed on the scoreboard grows unnaturally quickly: up to 200 km / h Rapid accelerates so quickly, as if it is Ferrari. But in fact, this is an illusion: in real conditions, the machine will accelerate much longer due to the aerodynamic resistance to such speeds.

"Good eager, Skoda, most likely, there will be very small transmission losses - comments Andrei - well, plus the tires are clearly with a little rolling resistance."

So, what did the manufacturer promised there? Four-cylinder atmospheric engine Working volume of 1598 cm. Cube. Must develop the capacity of at least 110 liters. from. At 5800 rpm, the maximum torque of 155 Newton meters is achieved at 3800 rpm. And what in fact?

The tests showed that the engine power was even slightly higher than the stated - 111.6 liters. from. at 5701 rpm. But the peak of torque is slightly lower than the stated: 151 instead of 155 Newtono-meters, at 3989 rpm. Well, the scandal did not happen - 4 Newton-meters could well "get lost" due to fuel, and in general, such a dispersion fully fits into the error. Let's see what Kia will show.

Rio has the most powerful motor in class: with a volume of 1591 cm. Cube. It develops 123 liters. from. At 6300 rpm, and the peak of torque 155 Newtono-meters falls on 4300 rpm. And what will be shown?

At first, almost happened to the sensation: Rio did not reach the stated indicators! A little bit, but did not reach. What is the reason? Are rumors confirmed? No: After examining the characteristics of Rio, Andrei came to the conclusion that the measurement should be done on not the 4th, but on the 5th gear. Why? That's right, because Rio with this motor is a 6-speed gearbox.

And immediately everything became in place: the booth showed that the engine produces 124.1 liters. from. At 6304 rpm, and the peak of the torque of 155.5 Newtono-meters falls on 4362 rpm.

Well, the sensation did not happen: both tested Tabun cars under the hood correspond to the declared. However, we were alerted the reaction of other dealers, flatly refused to provide cars for measurements: what are they fear?

We decided to figure out this in any way, so in the near future we plan to drive all "state employees" to the dinitend. And then - and models of other classes, including used to find out how many "horses" lose the motors during runs 100, 150, 200 thousand kilometers. And deal with who wear out faster - turbocharged or "atmospheric"? Gasoline or diesel engines? And how does a hybrid feel at 300 thousand kilometers? We hope that the dynamometer stand "will tell" more than any diagnosis! To the question of real power we will return, because the topic is interesting.

We bring to your attention a video report on the tests from our partners, the canal Test-Drive.tv..

Each car owner must register its vehicle (TC) in the manner prescribed by law, and regularly pay the corresponding transport tax. The subtleties of the calculation of this compulsory payment regulate regional transport tax laws, clarifying deadlines, benefits and basic rates within the limits of chapter 28 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation (NK RF). The question arises "How to calculate the tax on the car?".

Control the correct accrual of transport tax, as well as in a timely manner to provide changes in information relating to car ownership, and documents confirming the right to tax breaks are required by the owners of vehicles.

Calculation of transport tax on the car

The magnitude of the automotive transport tax is determined by the standard formula. The amount of horsepower in the technical passport of the machine (l.) Is consistently multiplied by the current tax rate, and then a coefficient calculated as the ratio of the number of full months of ownership of the machine to the total number of months per year, that is, to 12.

Example 1.

Suppose we are owners of the car Renault Logan.The engine power is 75 horsepower and we live in the Moscow region. The vehicle tax rate in Moscow and MO today is 12 rubles. Then the cost of transport tax for 1 year will be:

12 rubles x 75 horsepower \u003d 900 rubles.

Example 2.

Suppose we own the car VAZ of Priora 9 months and live in Moscow. The rate in Moscow is 12 rubles per hp The power of the car is 98 horsepower. Then the cost of transport tax for 9 months will be:

12 rubles. x 98 hp X ((9 months we own a car) / (12 months per year)) \u003d 882 rubles.

Automotive tax pay only for the period in which the car was registered on a specific owner. For the month of transport transition from one owner, only one owner pays to another.

Month of owning a car, when calculating the coefficient, consider full if the car

  • registered in the traffic police from the 1st to the 15th;
  • or discontinued after the 15th.

In other cases, the month of registration of the car or his removal from registration will be taken into account when calculating the transport tax for the other side of the sale transaction ().

Luxury Car Tax

The formula for calculating the transport tax on the machine, the cost of which is more than 3 mil. rub. and at the possession of it over 1 year:

The size of the transport tax \u003d (tax rate) x (L. c) x (increases the coefficient)

Calculation of auto tax, the value of which is more than 3 mil. rub. and at the possession of it less than 1 year:

Transport tax size \u003d (tax rate) x (L. C) X (number of months of ownership / 12) x (raising coefficient)

Increased coefficient (chapter 28, article 362 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation):

1.1 - for passenger carsmobile middle cost from 3 million to 5 million rubles inclusive, over the year of the release of which passed from 2 to 3 years;
1.3 - for passenger cars by the average cost from 3 million to 5 million rubles inclusive, from the year of the release of which it took from 1 year to 2 years;
1.5 - for passenger cars the average cost from 3 million to 5 million rubles inclusive, from the year of the release of which no more than 1 year has passed;
2 - for passenger cars by the average cost from 5 million to 10 million rubles inclusive, from the year of the release of which no more than 5 years have passed;
3 - with respect to passenger cars of the average cost from 10 million to 15 million rubles inclusive, from the year of which no more than 10 years have passed;
3 - for passenger cars by the average cost of 15 million rubles, from the year of which no more than 20 years have passed.

Transport tax Calculator online


You can also use a transport tax calculator on the website of the Federal Tax Service (FTS) of Russia.

Tax rates for horsepower

The tax rate on the car is determined by the target laws of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, but do not go beyond the limits established by Article 361 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, and depend on:

  • machine engine power in l. from.;
  • region;
  • can be differentiated taking into account categories, age and ecological class vehicle.

For very expensive cars that have the price of 3 million rubles, additional, increasing, coefficients () are applied. In some cases, such a coefficient increases the amount of tax three times. Lists of models and brands of machines entering the increasing coefficients are updated annually by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation.

Transport tax benefits

According to most regional laws, the veterans and the disabled of the Great Patriotic War, heroes are exempt from the payment of automotive tax Soviet Union, Heroes of Russia and other groups of taxpayers. Muscovic list includes even representatives (one of two parents) of large families.

But in St. Petersburg, only one of the parents of a family can take this benefit, in which at least four minor children, and a number of citizens can use the established benefit only under the condition that their vehicle domestic production and has a motor with a power up to 150 liters. from.

Tax payroll for the car

The car tax pay at the place of registration of the car, and in the absence of such, at the place of residence of the owner of the vehicle.

1. Individuals tax on auto must pay no later than December 1 (), on the basis of a tax notice obtained from the FTS, together with the completed payment document.

In case of late payment of automotive tax, fenship will be accrued.

IMPORTANT! Tax taxes are calculated, given the data on state registration of the car. If the car owner does not have the right to preferentially exemption from paying tax, then without receiving a tax notice until December 1, the owner of the car must report to the territorial tax inspectorate about him vehicleand get a document required to pay for automotive tax.

ON A NOTE!Only on the certificate provided from the internal affairs agencies that the car is wanted, the tax inspectorate may suspend the calculus of the automotive tax and continue it from the month of return if the car will find and return the owner.

2. Legal entities ourselves are calculated by the transport tax, and conduct quarterly advance payments (one fourth of the total). If the tax is calculated on expensive carsAs made to the special list of minprogramg, the advance payments are paid immediately taking into account the above-increasing coefficient. At the end of the year, the remaining part of the tax must be paid until February 1, following the reporting, that is, before established by law The term of delivery of annual tax declarations.

Check online

According to state registration number Machines to find out the size of the transport tax will not succeed. All data is available only when information about the owner of the vehicle is available.

Maintenance of automotive tax can be clarified online through the official websites of government agencies.

1. Personal account taxpayer operating on the FTS website. It will takes the introduction of the individual number of the taxpayer (INN) and password.

You will first have to activate the service of the service with a personal appearance to the tax, where, after registering the application, the access password, recorded in the registration card, will be the login of the taxpayer. When the tax of the tax on the car is occurring, its size can be checked according to the "Accrued" link by selecting the appropriate tax object (car). Before the calculation of the tax, the results can be viewed in the "Overpayment / Debt" column.

2. PORTAL STANDERS, by surname, name, patronymic and insurance number of an individual personal account (SNILS) of the payer. Previously have to register by entering into the appropriate personal data (F.I.O., date and place of birth, address of accommodation and email, etc.)
Then you need to fill out an application for providing information on tax debt. Information is provided free of charge, no later than 5 working days, as the system will redirect the request to the FTS.

3. The site of the federal bailiff service makes it possible to learn about overdue transport tax debts. Without prior registration, entering the relevant lines of the search by F.O., the date of birth of the debtor and choosing the desired region from the list.

The transport tax is annually paid by all owners of cars. Individuals the amount of automotive tax is calculated by the tax service, but the correctness of these calculations should be monitored independently.

When detecting inaccuracies, taxpayers are obliged to inform the FTS on the errors allowed and the need to make appropriate changes. Thanks to the development modern technologiesCreate and adjust the calculations received from tax authorities not only with a personal appearance in the tax inspection or sending custom letters by mail, but also online, through the personal account of the tax payer.

Each owner of a car registered in the prescribed manner is obliged to annually pay the tax for each horsepower of his car - the right thing is called transport.

In this article will deal with the following issues:

  • for what purposes the state collects this type of tax;
  • how it is calculated;
  • is it possible to get benefits and how to pay.

As you know, enhanced road construction is underway in Russia, and it is funded at the expense of taxes. So, according to 56, the article of the budget code of the Russian Federation, the budget of the subjects is replenished due to 100% of the deductions of the following types of taxes:

  • transport;
  • from property;
  • from gambling business.

Further, other types of taxes are listed in this article, some of which goes to the region's budget. In addition, in the head of the tenth Code (Articles 65-82), it is clearly described, to which one or another tax must be consumed. Accordingly, those money that the owners of vehicles are paid to form road funds.

From here you can come to the conclusion that the more money enters the budget of the region from the tax for horsepower, more funds Invested in the road. This can be seen by big cities - Moscow, Petersburg. Although, for example, such a big city, like Saratov, can not boast of very good roads.

How is the car tax calculated?

With the calculation there should not be any problems - it is made according to a simple scheme:

  • the number of horsepower multiply on the base rate.

If the car was removed from accounting, for example, in September, then the formula acquires this type:

  • number of hp Multiplier to the base rate and multiplied by (Number of months of possession of the year / 12).

Basic rates for 2018 make up:

  • 2.5 - if the engine power reaches 100 hp;
  • 3.5 - to 150 hp;
  • 5 - up to 200;
  • 7.5 - 201-250 hp;
  • 15 - over 250 horsepower.

This we led rates for passenger carsBut there are bets for motorcycles, trucks, buses, yachts and aircraft.

It would seem that the amounts should be out of the biggest, even if you have any powerful Rostina type Porsche Boxter with an engine at 400 hp However, the law has one small member: in the government of the subject of the Federation, they have the right to increase the base rate, but not more than 10 times.

Thus, you need to know the basic bets for your region. We give examples.

Moscow. Car VAZ-21099, engine power 78 "horses". For Moscow, the bet is 12 rubles for strength, hence we get that the full year of ownership will need to pay - 78x12 \u003d 936 rubles. If you used the car only 9 months, we get - 78x12x9 / 12 \u003d 702 rubles.

For cars with engine Over 250 hp The rate for Moscow is 150 rubles, so that the amounts will be significantly more - from 37500 rubles and higher. In other regions, rates can be significantly lower, for example, in the Krasnoyarsk Territory for the same VAZ-21099 will have to pay only 390 rubles, and over a car with a capacity of more than 250 hp. - 51 ruble for strength.

Who are the benefits?

Categories of beneficiaries can also differ significantly in different areas of Russia, but categories can be distinguished that, with one hundred percent confidence, may not pay transport tax in any region of the country:

  • disabled in the first and second group;
  • parents of disabled children;
  • veterans of the Warm;
  • heroes of the USSR and the Russian Federation.

Each region also has its own individual categories, for example, Moscow is exempt from tax owners of low-power cars (engine power less than 70 hp), as well as entrepreneurs engaged in the transport of passengers (except for a taxi).

In St. Petersburg, TN may not pay persons affected by the accident at the Chernobyl NPP, the owners of the TC release until 1990, as well as the capacity of no more than 80 hp. Disabled from taxation and veterans of various military conflicts (Afghanistan, Chechnya).

All those who fall under one or another category are completely freed from payment. There are also those who have to pay TN, but at reduced rates. For example, in Perm 50% of the tax amount pay pensioners by age, provided that there is no more than 100 hp in their possession. In the same Perm, large parents do not pay tax, as well as parents whose children undergo a call in the army of the Russian Federation.

How and when should I pay for the tax?

According to the 363 article of the Tax Code of payment for the previous year should be made until October of the next year, that is, in October of this year you need to pay for the tax for 2016. 30 days before the end date, you must come to the mail with an exact indication of the amount. If it is not, that is, several options:

  • come to the tax inspection in advance and get a receipt for hands;
  • learn about your debt on the public service website.

On the same site, the state service can be paid over the Internet. In case of non-payment, penalties are charged - the fifth of the tax, plus a certain percentage for each day of delay.

How to translate the engine volume into horsepower? And got the best answer

Answer from Sergess01 [Guru]
Brilliant question !! !
And how to translate the frequency of the processor in FPS in games?
And the extractiveness of the initial wort of beer in the amount of alcohol in the blood?
The engine volume is, in fact, just his geometric size. Of course, than he is more, the engine is more powerful. But in addition to volume, the power depends on the many other factors. With the same volume, different engines have different power. What Motiglo is perfect and promoted, the higher it is higher. There is such an indicator - specific power, it shows how many l. from. It turns out from 1l. Engine working volume.

In no way. These are completely different concepts. Are you the volume of 3 liter banks do not translate in l \\ s?


Answer from Атьтяна Кучмий[guru]
The term "horsepower" introduced by the English inventor James Watt means not at all the power, but the power (physical value denoting the attitude of uniformly performed work at a certain period of time). Watching the work of horses pulling out of coal races with a block device heavy baskets filled with coal, the scientist measured the total weight of the breed extracted by them and the height to which it was raised during a certain time. Through simple mathematical actions, it calculated that one horse in one minute from a depth of 100 feet (30 m) stretched 330 pounds (150 kg) coal. This unit of power and got the name "HorsePower", designated as HP, and there is a "horsepower". In October 1960, the decision of the XI General Conference on measures and weighs was adopted a single international system of UN units. One horsepower has become called a power unit and is 736 watts. Power car engines Still are measured in horsepower.

Answer from Alexey Zablotsky[newcomer]
Why answer if you do not know? Engine liters in l. from. It is interlaced elementary air consumption by this engine. Air is considered for this formula
Number of air from the volume of the engine
air in kg / hour \u003d engine volume in liter * x rpm * 0.5 * 0.85 / 1000 * 60 * 1.1
Where 1,1 \u003d air density at + 50-70 C, which corresponds to the real under the hood.
Next, the mass of the air is multiplied by 0.4 and we obtain the number of horses in the stoichiometric ratio of fuel / air. In power mode, there will be a couple of percent more (the mixture is frozen).

Power in the car is one of the main criteria. Today you can find cars with different power indicators, but what solutions to choose for the highest quality trip? Sometimes in the company's proposal companies are so extensive that the same model offers with power units from 100 to 250 horsepower. So, for example, it happens in the British mini corporation. But experts and experienced drivers call it nonsense and bad idea. Since each car has a sufficiently large number of advantages in a specific performance. All suspension, body, interior elements - everything is calculated at specific power, dynamics and speed. And the engine weight and other parameters are important. Therefore, with a large scatter it is difficult to make good car For each unit simultaneously taking into account all the characteristics.

Nevertheless, Mercedes has precedents, as the same car can be the best offer with a 120 and 350 horsepower engine. AMG series is a bit redone in everything - suspension, salon, controls. Therefore, the most powerful cars often fully justify themselves. However, they behave frankly units of transport representatives. Most situations have a certain problem that must be solved. And the car solves a specific task. Therefore, often put in the usual urban car The engine with three hundred horses is completely useless. It simply increases fuel consumption and does not bring anything good to the buyer. So it costs attentively to choosing the engine and its technical characteristics.

Small class of urban hatchbacks - What is "Golden Middle"?

For a small class, the optimal set of horsepower is the power of 80 to 110 horses. All that is above this indicator turns out to be superfluous. All that lower is annoying and strains when traveling. Therefore, the very Matiz with his 52 horses just does not fall into good feedback Due to low power. The optimal quality for the machine is as follows:

  • acceleration up to 100 km / h no more than 11-12 seconds, otherwise the dynamics will be too small to get a more or less high-quality trip through the city streets;
  • convenient gearbox with short switching, which will not force the driver to work on switching and tired of this case, everything should be clear;
  • when overtaking should not arise problems that can lead to an accident and other unpleasant consequences, there should always be a certain power supply;
  • fuel consumption is a central question for many car buyers today, this is a really important indicator, it should not exceed 7 l per 100 km in the city.

Such parameters of a small urban car opens us enough big choice. There are European, Korean, chinese carsthat are worthy of your attention. But you should pay certain attention and on the quality of the assembly, a decent interior design. Each buyer will have their own set of criteria, which should be considered.

C-class cars - mass segment in Russia

Equality in this class has always been on the VW Golf, so it is often perceived as the only correct option for comparison. Today, golf is supplied in the database with an engine at 110 horsepower, and this is very small. There is a second unit - 1.4 TSI on 122 horses, and it turns out to be optimal for this car. Machine tasks are as follows:

  • provide not just worthy of dynamics, but a fairly active trip, if we are talking about a car with sports appearance and other important advantages;
  • gearboxes must perform clear and fast switching, while saving fuel, great is suitable German robotic box 7DSG on golf;
  • at lower power, the car remains defenseless on the road, and if immediately after buying a car, the driver does not feel this, then after the month of operation it catchies;
  • fuel consumption is an important, but not a critical moment for the C-class car buyer, it is important to keep the balance between money consumption and obtaining a high-quality trip.

Japanese flagship in this segment, Toyota Corolla, Sold with a basic engine of 99 horsepower, but he is not just small, he is tiny for this car. But the aggregates at 122 and 140 horses just perfectly perform their functions. Interestingly, small aggregates do not save fuel, consumption is almost the same as on adult engines.

Elite sedans - Is the volume and power parameters?

In expensive elite sedans, the fuel consumption parameter does not matter. Also do not take into account numbers denoting volume power aggregate and the number of horsepower. Buy a car for comfort, speed and acceleration, dynamics and controllability. However, the engine plays a role when choosing transport and performs such functions:

  • acceleration - the more powerful unit, the more significant there will be acceleration on any part of the road, it is important for a dynamic and comfortable trip to any situations;
  • dynamics - sometimes you have to rush hard, so fast overtaking on the track becomes an important means of preserving time, so the volume is important;
  • reliability - it is impossible to allow the car to break on the road or led during the movement to certain meetings and other important events in the life of a businessman;
  • the style and quality of all parts are sometimes more important than all the characteristics of the engine, so they often choose the machine only by design parameters.

So the engine volume sometimes turns out to be not the most important factor in such a car. The number of horses in elite sedans range from 120 to 500. It is important to understand the meaning of buying a car. You can give preference to the Passat with 122 horses or buy a Bentley with a 625 horsepower engine. The choice will always bear certain consequences.

Crossovers - choose the best power indicator

For comparison we will take medium-sized crossovers, such as Toyota RAV4. This basic engine representative develops 146 horsepower, and there are 150 and 180 horses aggregates. These are optimal indicators that support all class leaders. Therefore, in the range from 140 to 200 and you need to choose the power unit. Such an engine will be able to perform the following tasks:

  • optimal movement on any road with sufficiently high quality operation, no overloads and arising from this problems with the car;
  • good overclocking, decent dynamics on the highway to make safe overtaking, an excellent reaction to all road events and the availability of power reserve;
  • confidence in movement, which creates certain advantages for each buyer, provides important benefits of the operation of the car in any conditions;
  • reliability and durability - It is in such a power range that the aggregates can walk the greatest amount of time and get a maximum of pleasant opportunities.

For crossover, the engine is 105 horsepower, as often, the case in Chinese solutions is too weak. He will not be able to raise the car on a cool mountain and will not give normally to overtake passing transport. It closes the freedom of movement and makes the purchase of a crossover with a completely uninteresting idea. So it is better to give preference to more powerful motors.

Elite SUVs - Measure the perfect power

It is worth a look at the market leaders. At Toyota LC 200 engines begin with 249 horses and end with a representative under 400 horsepower. Nissan Patrol has only one engine for 405 horses. The largest SUV Mercedes G-Class Offers engines for 245 and 422 horsepower. The main tasks of the aggregates are:

  • it takes on the simple roads of the buyer of the car so that there is no feeling of cumbersome and the volatility of a large car, without any problems to overtake the car;
  • provide sufficiently high freedom on the road, freedom of decision-making on overtaking, speed and acceleration, give normal confidence when traveling;
  • be a reliable and durable solution for each motorist, despite certain vehicle movements and other travel features;
  • fuel consumption is not the most important, but still a certain way affects the choice of a car with a specific engine when buying in the cabin.

Almost all class leaders provide such conditions even with basic power units. In this segment, it is very difficult to allocate some kind of car, which would be an unconditional leader and could offer much more benefits than all rivals. The reference elite car is difficult to choose due to the fact that every buyer will defend its choice. We offer a small review of one of the representatives of elite SUVs:

Let's sum up

As you can see, the power is really important for the motorist. Often we buy a car, paying attention only to the basic parameters of transport, but it is necessary to provide much more. In particular, it makes sense to look after transport parameters that are fully suitable for your trip style. The power and volume of the engine is one of the important indicators that should always be viewed for sufficient characteristics when buying a car. If not taken into account important parameters The power unit, it will not be possible to get a decent car with good performance.

However, for each buyer there are certain criteria for the acquisition of the machine, so there will always be the one who will criticize a good choice. It should be understood that the control of the car and the operation of transport is the things are purely individual. Therefore, it should not be given to smart experts and experienced transport owners to knock you down from the intended path. You buy cars under your requirements and do not forgive yourself if you buy the most weak Engine And you will experience further problems with its operation. Do you choose the most powerful or most economical unit of the unit when buying a car?
