The return to the USSR happened even earlier than Mikhail Gorbachev could have imagined. Judge for yourself: the revival of the Moskvich, the reincarnation of the Oka, the convulsions of the UAZ and the Lada, which, pardon me, have lost the already minimal set of useful systems responsible for security. But thank you for leaving us at least seats and a steering wheel!
True patriots rejoiced at the cheaper Russian models: what – they drove half their lives in Zhiguli, Izhakh and Moskvich without ABS and police call buttons! And nothing – we made it: we move on. Moreover, the population has neither choice nor money. And it is not expected soon.
But what about a generation eating Coca-Cola burgers? Give modern society not only airbags, but also parking sensors, cameras, sensors and radars. That is why ‘advanced users’ prefer foreign cars as an alternative: let them be used, but safely. Admittedly, this is only theoretical.
For example, those same “airbags” often don’t work for overseas cars that have seen their lives, or are even absent altogether, and no one has tested the infamous ABS on them. In addition, when choosing “recycled materials”, an ordinary motorist will almost never find that racks or a spar have been led into a car. However, as recognizing in him a “drowned man” or a “shifter”. And these, to put it mildly, characteristics of a used foreign car do not bode well. On the contrary: the safety of such machines leaves much to be desired. Even if the original Russian Zhiguli become this “best”.
So what to choose: a new old “Lada” or a “tired” import? You will learn about this in the special issue of the podcast of the AvtoVzglyad portal.
