Description Mitsubishi Carisma 1 6l

In this article, "The description of a Mitsubishi Carisma 6l" we will tell an interesting range of Japanese car Mits. Cooperation between direct competitors is not uncommon. One can also recall a project Sevel (PSA and FIAT), and the Ford Galaxy / VW Sharan. In the Dutch town of Bourne was commissioned plant joint venture NedCar, owned by Mitsubishi Motors Corporation, Volvo Car Corporation and the Government of the Netherlands. True, issued here Mitsubishi Carisma and Volvo S40/V40 still not "the same thing with different logos," although they have a common platform. Yes, and in marketing their is no clear division between the "sphere of influence" (as did the VW and Ford in relation to the Galaxy). Carisma and the S40/V40 are sold on the same markets, and fortieth series of Volvo in Ukraine has already succeeded. The emergence of a Mitsubishi Carisma 6l in our market could not be more timely. As the saying goes, there's nowhere to pull, especially when you consider the success of its competitors in the class - Peugeot 406, Opel Vectra or VW Passat, all on inexpensive complete set of which is painted, it seems to six months in advance. Ukrainian debut (informal) Mitsubishi Carisma 1 6l held in December. A month earlier at the Central avtopoligone (Nichi-AMT) in the Moscow Dmitrov we were able to test the car. Made in Japan? Actually, the label Made in Japan can be seen except for gasoline engines and automatic transmissions, which supply NedCar from Japan as assembly kits. Everything else - from different countries of Western Europe (Europe's share in production costs - 85%). From suppliers of electrical equipment (Siemens, Bosch), lighting (Hella), tires (Dunlop) and other components seem to understand everything - from their "dress" very many. Much more interesting is that diesel engines and manual transmissions purchased from Renault. The failed Volvo-Renault alliance is still making itself felt? Maybe. But it may simply be chosen the most suitable partner? In any case, we are not yet concerned in the sense that Ukraine Carisma with a diesel engine in the first stage will not be delivered. What will happen? Two types of gasoline engines - 1.6 liter (100 hp..) And 1,8 l {115l. c), mechanical with manual or automatic hydromechanical transmission, three basic options finishes - GL, GLX and GLS. Body - the five-door hatchback or four-door sedan. These cars were presented at avtopoligone. Three sedan with the engine of 1,6 liter and a manual and three hatchback with engines 1.8 liters and "automatic". True, very much like to see "the same" 1,8 GDI direct-injection gasoline, which boasts Mitsubishi everywhere. Already at the same time he would "try". But - alas! Carisma will come to us with "normal" 1,8 MPI (distributed injection into the intake pipe), and this had to be content. Meet: Mitsubishi Carisma 1 6l Imagine that you are familiar with the man - polite, well-mannered, quiet, elegant and tastefully dressed. If you then ask your opinion about it, then you are likely to say that he "made a very good impression." With the "Charisma" is the same. Its appearance may not immediately some design refinements, but for many this is like. The car shape in a measure round, but a clear line "zone" and vyshtampovki, as well as the contours Svetopribor add the necessary rigor in the class. Rationally used branded items (grille, air intake box), although a massive front bumper, spoiler, for all its "sport" is still attached to some heavy-handedness. By the way, thanks to a wide rear pillars, a hatchback looks harmonious and even more solid sedan, although the ideology should be more "family-universal." The interior matches the external appearance - here, too, with an overall "smoothly curved" decision is quite managed to achieve a sense of calm and solidity. Not the least role in this played a central console, significantly distinguished on the background of the front panel. First impression - the most favorable. Turning on "you" second - too. This - the spaciousness of the interior. Not to say that much right VW Passat, but the driver of high growth can afford to stay completely at ease, besides, is not "riding straight on their feet sitting in the rear passenger. Increasingly, fashion is now the arms and boxes for small items, placed between the front seats, replacing the adjustment knob out, toward the door. Mitsubishi Carisma 1 6l - is no exception: customized seat "under him" you have the door open. By adjusting the steering column for height would not hurt to add a longitudinal, it would be useful especially high. But the "extension" in the interior center console could not be better solved the problem with the reach of all buttons and switches - will not have to go. Very convenient, "in sports, are the pedals and not forgotten the support area for the left foot. The case when the characteristic trait in the image in the best way reflected on the consumer properties. As for sitting back, then you need another search so long-legged passengers, so it is not appropriate. And this Mitsubishi Carisma 1 6l very favorably with many (especially Japanese) classmates. That in general it is understandable - because in fact it all. Made in Europe Indeed, not only produced but also designed. Research Center of Mitsubishi Motors in Germany put, it is felt a lot of effort to make turned out what happened. And if you're familiar with a fellow "Charisma", that lower class (Lancer), it is unlikely that you will be able to get rid of the thought that it did completely different people. That, apparently, untrue. At least in the cabin, it feels, and although the overall style is maintained, but it is only superficial similarities, not more. Another example: a large and very comfortable boot of a Mitsubishi Carisma 6l produces quite the opposite impression, rather than squeezed from the side rear axle housings trunk "Lancer", and explains not only "class" differences in the dimensions of the car. If all this not enough for you, then a trip to the "Charisma" should finally convince you. To the credit of the organizers of the Dmitrov presentation must be said that they provided a fairly diverse program to make about the car is quite sensible view, even during a short trip. Especially tried to assess the stability and manageability. Probably not just because, unlike "Lancer", Mitsubishi Carisma 1 6l have something to brag about. The car responds to quick turn the steering wheel and a small roll dutifully fits into the rotation. You using the accelerator pedal is very accurately control his behavior. In your power to get him to pass the turn with a spectacular drift, but you can by pressing the pedal, adjust, and even contrary, to keep out a trajectory on the verge of collapse. Carisma sensitive to your actions and perfectly controlled. And most importantly - you will quickly understand "what's what, and what to expect in every next moment. As for the other indicators, then the car has pretty decent smooth ride, excellent noise isolation and you want to ask about the dynamics? Here, we would not have to claim the description "of everything" for motor 1,6 l in our case, combined with only "hand-mechanics, and 1,8 l - with" automatic ". If we talk specifically about these combinations, the 1,6 l engine delivers smooth, without noticeable jumps, steady acceleration, quite worthy of even this class. The only disadvantage of a manual gear box - a "counter-tenacity" when you turn on first "and" second ", disappears when using the" double cutoffs. "(Progress! Y" Lancer "it was at all!). We have to think, not the synchronizers. Engine 1 , 8 liters, of course, have fun and here there is clearly some increase mettle when the tachometer needle reaches 4000 rpm feel the same all the charm of an adaptive automatic transmission INVECS-II we did not - the test trips were too short, so she had time to demonstrate their flexibility with regard to the subtleties of style of driving. failed, however, to find out what the difference between "sport" and "quiet" mode it tracks pretty quickly. And I would like to get in terms of rolling hills - it is here where transmission INVECS-II should show a maximum its advantages. Thus, Mitsubishi Carisma 1 6l sale in Ukraine. It is not necessary, perhaps running too far ahead, but at least it is permissible to assume that the price of $ 17.5 thousand (in the "minimal" set) and 23 thousand $ (in "full" with 1,8 GDI) car will have the success we have, the more that sign up for it in the next six months is not needed. so far. In any case, we can say that, having decided to make a car for Europe, Mitsubishi has chosen the correct path. Europeans have set for ourselves have designed and manufactured a car, how they want to see him. Habit. And while bearing the stamp was not European.
