Chevrolet Lacetti - the best -selling car in the Russian market

Over the past years, Chevrolet Lacetti has remained one of the best -selling cars in the Russian market. Causes of high demand for Chevrolet Lacetti can be called a lot. Firstly, this is the fact that the car was engaged in the development of the Daewoo, and in Russia the car began to be sold in 2004 under the brand Chevrolet.Lacetti price of a new car-423-548 thousand rubles. A used car will cost about 300 thousand rubles. The basic version of the Lacetti sedan is equipped with a 1.4 liter gasoline engine, but this is not all, there are more powerful 1.6 and 1.8 liter engines. The last option for the Russian car market is not provided. And in Ukraine there is no model with a 1.4 liter engine on sale. Inside, the car is very beautiful, with soft plastic, the cabin is equipped with two airbags, a CD player, 4 columns, front glass with electric drive and mirror. I would like to note a significant minus of the car - this is the terrible gearbox. The fact is that it allows you to ride quite dynamically, does not make noise, does not break. However, at the same time, the clarity of switching a manual gearbox is simply terrible. The first and second speeds are turned on completely normal, but the third one ... the first time it will not work to the third speed, it will not work out, it turns out only 3-4 times, and besides, the moves of the gearbox are long, which complicates the process of switching the speed. Also, after 80-100 km/h, a noise appears, which “presses on the ears”, although someone will say that this is observed in all budget foreign cars, will be right. The most serious competitor Lacetti is Ford Focus - a sedan with 1.6; 1.8 liter engines. Similar "Ford" in equipment costs more than $ 1,000. The second competitor is Mitsubishi Lancer (Lancer), a car of good configuration with the cost of 455-545 thousand. rubles.
