Our colleagues from Rossiyskaya Gazeta interviewed car experts and found out which sedans it makes sense to take a closer look, since you have at your disposal no more than 1 million rubles. For example, Dmitry Kudryavtsev, deputy head of risk at Alfa-Leasing Group of Companies, said it is better to avoid French and domestic brands – “reliability and liquidity are not their strong points.” Japanese manufacturers massively use a variator as a gearbox, and the cost of spare parts for cars from the Land of the Rising Sun is constantly rising.
— It is worth taking a closer look at Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Solaris, Kia Rio, Volkswagen Polo and Skoda Rapid. In this case, it is first important to conduct technical diagnostics of the desired model, taking into account the total mileage and year of manufacture, Kudryavtsev advised.
But the head of the dealer department of the Fresh car marketplace, Evgeny Zhitnukhin, does not remove the “French” from the list of worthy sedans and specifically mentions the Renault Laguna for 537,000 rubles. In addition, he recommends the Chevrolet Aveo (699,000 rubles) and Skoda Octavia (954,000 rubles).
“The latter, the Czech liftback, is especially in high demand, as the brand has established itself on the Russian market as a supplier of reliable and safe cars for the whole family,” Zhitnukhin said.
