On the RUTUBE channel of the founder of the Club Service, Ilya Sviridov, a review of the same tape of the Gorky Automobile Plant appeared. The masters managed to make out a combi with all -wheel drive, domestic turbodiesel and transmission. For dealers, such “NN sables” 4×4 cost from 3.6 to 4.4 million rubles, depending on the number of seats, equipment and the availability of “dopes”.

Ilya Sviridov began the review by admitting: the import substitution program was a success, now, instead of European and American details, Chinese are installed. In particular, a 2.5 -liter turbodiesel is borrowed from the Middle Kingdom: this is a belt motor with a cast -iron block, an aluminum head and the lack of need to adjust the valves. The unit itself is new, so the resource is for certain: the numbers from 300 to 700 thousand kilometers are called.

By return (150 hp), the engine is comparable to some foreign cars, but the “Sobol NN” 4×4 is a very high (2.5 meters) car with a solid center of gravity, so you do not drive on the highway on a frame van. The clearance of 22 centimeters under the map of the bridge favorably distinguishes gas from analogues, but the reverse side of cross -country ability is a high floor. The machine itself is utilitarian: there is only a central lock from the plant, although the galaxy of contacts in the sliding door hints at the removal.

The Club Service observer drew attention to the only amplifier in huge front doors, modest noise and vibration isolation. There are questions for the technological assembly: the welding of the floor in places is uneven, the welding points are chaotic, the body is not painted under the plastic parts, and a number of holes are sealed with industrial tape, and then painted on top. On the site near the fuel tank, the panel is combined with large gaps, under the driver’s place they found rusty dust from shavings.

Outside to “Sobol NN” there are also questions: all the joints of the body are smeared with a black sealant after coloring: this is not found on foreign cars. The dealer also gave the client a car with a dent on the roof. During the analysis, the old clips of the times of the USSR and hard plastic, which did not bend, attracted attention. But access to the new gas engine is gas, like on Audi: a plastic TV with radiators is removable. This is good for mechanics, but in the case of an accident it will be expensive.

Ilya Sviridov admired the margin of strength of “Sobol NN”. In fact, the minivan has two frames: one traditional one, with straight channels, and the second integrated into the body. The transverse body amplifiers from below are located every 40 centimeters, powerful thresholds: foreign cars have no such design and close. According to the engineering approach, an army equipment was taken as a basis. The blogger also impressed that there was a front suspension subframe on the frame car.

The Club Service Observer noted a new handout developed from scratch, a domestic 6-speed “mechanics”, rear disc brakes, an electronically controlled handout, a diagram with a steering rack and an independent front suspension. All this for “sable” is great progress. However, Ilya Sviridov refrained from the conclusions.
