The blogger criticized the gas “Sobol NN” 4×4. The answer of the plant appeared

Last week, the Club Service observer Ilya Sviridov [показал](https://motor.ru/news/gaz-sobol-nn-club-25-01-2025.htm), how the new minibus works, ambiguously assessing some technical solutions. Distributor of the GAZ GAZ company Modern Transport Technologies (hereinafter referred to as STT) and the manufacturer noticed a number of inaccuracies and commented in detail the critical remarks of the blogger.

The factory did not agree with the utilitarian equipment of the novelty: STT noted that among all the NNs, the Sobol NN, has one of the richest basic configurations officially represented on the Russian market. There is a central castle, electric windows, electric rinses, air conditioning, a winter bag with heated front seats and windshield, a pre -heater, a subnailed driver’s seat, LED headlights.

Also, in Nizhny Novgorod, they considered it wrong that in foreign cars there is no external application of suture sealant to the joints of the body after painting. According to STT, this technology is widespread among leading Western manufacturers, for example, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen. The technique allows you to maintain paintwork for bias of the body on uneven roads.

STT believes that the statement about the weak noise and vibration isolation of “Sobol NN” 4×4 also does not correspond to the truth. The car “with a large margin corresponds to existing certification standards” and has “a lower level of internal noise compared to a number of competitors”.

Also, at the Gorky Automobile Plant, they clarified that welded points are located exactly where it is necessary according to the project, and the floor panels are welded with an accuracy of 0.2 millimeters. The enamel is really not applied to the internal elements of the body panels, since there is no risk of rust in these parts of the body. However, they do this “all over the world.”

There are no unprotected sections of the Sobol NN, because in the process of color it passes cataphorageous priming: it is completely immersed in 13 baths with special liquids and primary soil. As for the technological windows in the back, they are needed so that the soil has entered all hidden cavities. Before painting, the holes are closed not with tape, but with a special incompatible plastic sealant “Herband C”. Its dismantling during operation is not provided.

STT believes that the removable plastic “TV” with radiators in the event of an accident will be cheaper than a traditional steel weld frame. The plastic structure is more elastic, so it can withstand shocks. If, in the event of an accident, the frame breaks, it can be replaced assembled without welding and tin.

Finally, STT did not agree that it is impossible to drive on the highway on the “NN Sobole”. In terms of controllability, the novelty “corresponds to a light SUV”, and a height of 2.5 meters is not a record by standards of class: many imported low-tonnage vans have a larger height-up to 2.7-2.8 meters.
