Passenger cars with a diesel engine are new. Dieselgate in Russian: why Russians shun diesel cars
At the present time, many of the motorists prefer diesel engines. Consulting agency J.D. PowerAsiaPacific did the research. According to its results, a quarter of all new cars are produced with diesel engines. And that's not all, there is a tendency to increase this figure.
Back in the 2000s, only one out of 10 cars drove with a diesel engine. And in the future, based on the opinion of experts, this figure will grow annually by 1-2%. There are many reasons for this: the ever-increasing price of fuel and tightened control of environmental regulations. Another plus is the possibility of refueling with biodiesel, which, in light of the reduction in oil reserves, is becoming more and more relevant.
Pros and cons of a diesel engine
Let's highlight how a diesel engine is better than its gasoline comrades:
- Profitability. The need for fuel is 30–40% less.
- Life time. It is durable, on average, it will serve you twice as much as a gasoline counterpart.
- Fuel prices. Diesel fuel throughout the country is much cheaper than gasoline.
- Simplicity. It does not have an ignition system, which eliminates many problems. Reliability is higher.
- Environmental friendliness. Carbon dioxide emissions are very small.
If the advantages were named, then it is necessary to say about the disadvantages.
- Reliability. Poor quality fuel will quickly destroy injectors.
- Maintenance. It will cost you about 20% more.
- Comfort. The sound of the engine when starting is very unpleasant, and it will take longer to warm up.
- Convenience. If you use a manual transmission, you will have to shift gears more often.
Most Russians, when they hear the word diesel, remember the smell of diesel fuel on the bus, as well as jeans and watches of the brand of the same name. In Europe, this word is associated with the name of a German inventor. And it is a symbol of a reliable, inexpensive car.
In our country, it is not so popular, probably because of the climate. And in last years almost nothing is heard about the “millionaire” engines that the 90s were so famous for. Most likely, this is due to the fact that it has become simply unprofitable for large corporations to produce reliable, long-lived engines.
Rating of the best diesel engines
Having studied the ratings of major car dealerships in the world, we can conclude that the best diesel engines for passenger cars are no longer reduced copies of truck units, but a full-fledged product. What is the durable 1.9 TDI engine from the well-known Volkswagen concern.
At the present time, according to experts, it is considered the most balanced both in terms of power and dynamics.
It comes in various modifications, does not conflict with local fuel, but in good hands runs about 500 thousand kilometers. Of course, a lot depends on proper maintenance and operating conditions, but still this model deserves attention.
We will not ignore the brand new cars of the Passat series. They are now equipped with BlueMotion configuration engines. The engineers did their best, they managed to reduce fuel consumption, despite the fact that the power has not changed and varies from 90 to 120 (hp).
Now he spends only 3.3 liters. per 100 km. They achieved this by updating the turbine and raising the pressure in the combustion chambers. And they are much less polluting. environment which is important in today's world.
We also cannot ignore the engines of Mercedes and Nissan - these are the most reliable engines, we will place Subaru engines a little lower in our rating. But not only the Japanese and Germans have good diesel engines, for example, the Americans have a good engine from Ford. Let's put Opel on the next step. We will stop there, since there are too many complaints about Renault engines, and VAZ engines deserve a separate discussion about them.
What can cause engine failure
Like everything in our world, the reliability of a diesel engine is a relative concept. It is worth noting that turbine-diesel engines are not as reliable as atmospheric ones, because the turbine tends to break down often. There are a lot of factors that affect the work besides the assembly. The same internal combustion engine different conditions will behave differently.
As mentioned above, diesel engines are very dependent on the quality of the fuel. diesel fuel of dubious quality can notably pat your engine after the first refueling. The bottom line is that outdated Soviet engines can easily cope with such fuel, and a new car breakdown is guaranteed. Especially if there is some water in the fuel somehow.
This is due to the occurrence of sulfuric acid, which negatively affects all parts of the car. It results from the reaction of sulfur with water, which is catalyzed by high temperatures in internal combustion engines.
Although even without the absence of water, the excess sulfur content significantly reduces the life of the oil. Due to the ingress of crankcase gases into it. And sulfur will quickly ruin your particulate filter. It should be remembered that if you doubt the fuel, then to be sure that the car is working, the oil will have to be changed twice as often.
Subject to simple rules, not even the most successful motor will serve you faithfully long term. You need to use only quality engine oil, if possible, of the same brand, replace it on time, and, of course, do not overheat your unit - do not let the motor run at high loads.
"Perpetual" engines
Let's return to the legendary million-plus motors already mentioned above. There is an opinion that there used to be engines that could drive up to 1 million kilometers, and this was on those roads, without major repairs. One of these was the Mercedes-Benz model M102. He came to replace the M115. M102 has become lighter, but at the same time more powerful.
This he achieved due to thinner walls, which allowed him to lower the crankshaft lower. Cylindrical heads were made in a cross shape, on which there are suspended V-shaped valves, the drive works through the central rocker of the camshaft.
The engine itself began to be produced in the 80s of the last century in two assemblies. Both configurations were installed in the W123 family of cars.
After 4 years, a new family appeared - W124 and the engine was improved. The hydraulic mounts were replaced with rubber ones. It was equipped with an oil pressure sensor, V-ribbed belt, crankshaft and lightweight connecting rods, and the oil filter was also replaced.
The carburetor version was the last in the history of the brand.
It is also worth mentioning the diesel 2.5 liter engine from Toyota. This engine was considered very good and could run back its million. But of course, with a major overhaul, because the cylinders wear out much faster. The life of the cylinders is approximately 300-400 thousand km.
Let's remember about VAZ engines. Although the build quality of these cars leaves much to be desired, there are very good engines on the frets, I would like to highlight the 8-valve internal combustion engines. For the VAZ-2112, a mileage of 200-300 thousand kilometers is considered quite common, after which a major overhaul will have to be done.
And VAZ-21083, with the right approach and timely oil changes, can serve even longer - up to 400 thousand km. But the 16-valve engine breaks down very quickly. To sum up, the entire VAZ product is a lottery. Marriage is very common.
It is difficult to say something unambiguously about Renault engines - there are good models, but there are frankly weak ones. The most reliable diesel engine is considered to be the 8-valve K7J engine with a volume of 1.4 liters, and the K7M with a volume of 1.6 liters. They are made simply and successfully, and therefore break very rarely.
They have a timing belt (gas distribution mechanism) drive, the valve is adjusted by screws. K7M - used in RenaultSymbol / Sandero / Logan / Clio cars. The above-mentioned VAZ uses Lada Largus in its car. By all indications, the K7J looks good, except for the power - it's not enough for a mid-size passenger car.
On average, the most economical motor can run up to 400 thousand km without major repairs.
As for the Renault company, its engines are not characterized by high reliability - these are 1.5 liter, 1.9 liter and 2.2 liter diesel engines. They often have problems. Under load, the crankshaft begins to knock, and when the same thing begins to happen with the connecting rod bearings, this is definitely a major overhaul. This diesel engine from Renault will not be able to run much, and overhaul will have to be done after 130-150 thousand kilometers.
The largest and smallest engines
Just wondering which diesel engine is the best? The Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96 is the most powerful diesel engine to date. Its size is comparable to a three-story house.
This two-stroke engine weighs 2300 tons. It has two modifications - 6 and 14-cylinder and 108920 Horse power. This engine is designed for large merchant ships. The latest version of the engine will burn 6280 liters of fuel per hour.
And the smallest diesel engine will fit on one finger. In the near future, microscopic engines are on the way in Europe and the United States, which will be fueled by hydrocarbon fuel and driven by a tiny generator.
Conclusion
From the above, we can see that there are enough problems. It is quite possible to understand a motorist who does not want to take risks for the sake of economy. But with proper operation, the motor will work for a very long time.
There are cases when such engines served for 1–1.2 million km even on low-quality fuel.
That is, if you need a car designed for a long period of work, then you should think carefully about the diesel option. Also, do not forget about economy. Every 100 kilometers will give you about 30% savings in fuel, which justifies the higher cost of cars.
Unlike Europe, diesel cars are not very popular in Russia. And sedans - even more so. In the top ten best-selling cars - only crossovers and pickups. However, diesel sedans are still sold in our country. Let's get acquainted with some of them.
Mercedes-Benz S-class
First - about the cars of the major leagues. Among the eight long-wheelbase (short cars are not yet in the price lists) modifications of the Mercedes S-class with a W222 body (including a hybrid one), only one is equipped with a diesel engine - the S350d. Moreover, in the range of the model, this version is the weakest - six cylinders and only 249 hp. with a working volume of three liters.
For comparison, similar cars with gasoline engines develop from 333 to crazy 630 hp. True, with a diesel engine, the branded Mercedes 4Matic all-wheel drive system is required at no extra charge.
Volvo S90
Many are trying to compete with prestigious cars from Germany. Including the Swedes from Volvo. The "top" model S90 is just the rival of the Audi A6. It is stylish and looks really Swedish - like an ice block, beautifully cut. Headlights with daytime running lights on create a stiffness effect, but this is a matter of taste.
Unlike Audi, the interior of the S90 has a zest, it is not boring and pleases with fresh notes. For example, a three-spoke steering wheel with a "shield" hub. Or the deflectors of the ventilation system, made "antique". In general, designers do not get paid in vain.
At the same time, the car is "stuffed" with electronics according to latest fashion. The instrument cluster is not ordinary, but virtual, and the place of the "music" and climate control units is occupied by a huge touch screen - approximately like on Tesla. Although, just below there is still a number of real keys to control the most sought-after functions, such as an alarm and heated rear window. The “automatic” mode selector is a familiar lever, although now it is increasingly being replaced with buttons, a “twist” or a steering column switch.
In the arsenal, in addition to two gasoline engines, there is also one diesel! He, too, like the Audi two-liter, with a capacity of 235 hp, and a manual transmission is also not available. - 3.1 million rubles, but if desired and possible, it can easily be doubled that way.
Citroen C4 Sedan
But what if you pay attention to cars that are much closer to the people? Say, on a Citoen C4 sedan assembled in Russia? It has been produced for more than a year, but relatively recently it has undergone restyling. Daytime running lights appeared in the headlights, the taillights were aged completely with LEDs. And in general, the car is quite prettier.
True, some people like French design, others do not, but few remain indifferent. Turbo diesel is offered, however, not only in the Live configuration. This is a well-known 1.6-liter engine of the HDi family. Its power is quite sufficient for many - 116 hp.
For this sedan, diesel is only available with a six-speed manual gearbox. The base price of such a car is just over one million rubles, and the list of equipment is modest (for example, there are only two airbags, which is very small in modern times).
But to the honor of the manufacturer, they did not save on active safety - the stabilization system is already installed "as standard". Don't want to move the lever or have a desire to fork out for options? I'll have to buy a car with "gasoline".
An article about the most popular diesel cars of the beginning of 2018 - their features and important characteristics. At the end of the article - interesting video about economical diesel cars.
The content of the article:
Since 2016, the number of light diesel vehicles on Russian highways has been steadily growing. This growth in popularity is due to the protracted crisis in the country, which forces people to save money, and diesels with high power boast surprisingly modest appetites.
Diesel engine differences
Diesel engines produced for passenger vehicles are lighter, more compact and quieter and have a number of unconditional advantages compared to gasoline counterparts:
- increased efficiency (10% more than gasoline) and greater engine endurance,
- impossibility of spontaneous combustion and water resistance,
- a quarter less fuel consumption,
- low toxicity of gases,
- fuel is not only lower in cost, but also serves as an oil that washes the engine elements,
- The turbocharger allows you to adjust the speed of acceleration and increases the cross-country ability of the car.
- at idle, such a motor can make noise,
- the starter must have a certain power, and the combustion chamber must be warmed up,
- fuel must be of high quality, free of impurities and used strictly according to seasonal division,
- in the event of a breakdown, a diesel engine requires very expensive repairs,
- at low temperatures, problems with starting the engine due to low compression may occur.
Rating of the best diesel cars of 2018
This SUV is an absolute bestseller in its segment, although it has been on the market since the late 90s. Moreover, in terms of manufacturability, it is inferior to other crossovers not only from other manufacturers, but also to other creations of the native Toyota.
It is valued for its overall reliability, relative budget and economy. Turbodiesel 4-cylinder 2.2-liter unit, working with all-wheel drive and a 6-speed "automatic", in the combined cycle consumes only 6.5 liters of fuel.
Its uniform rumble is not annoying and does not go beyond the boundaries of typical automotive vibrations, and after a couple of hours behind the wheel you realize that a completely ordinary engine actually has decent power performance. It operates in a wide range of revolutions - from maximum torque at 1800 - 20000 rpm to cruising values. He gains these momentum without stress and is distinguished by enviable traction in urban mode.
One of the best representatives in its class, comfortable, functional and equipped modern technology. It has good, technologically advanced engines, both gasoline and diesel. They all operate with a 9-speed automatic transmission that shifts quickly and smoothly, helping to save fuel and reduce engine noise.
The extensive line includes:
- 170-horsepower 2-liter turbocharged, with an in-line arrangement of cylinders. With low power, it has good dynamics, it overcomes a hundred in 8.3 seconds, and the torque reaches 400 Nm at 1400-2800 rpm;
- a similar, only more powerful engine with 204 hp, accelerating to hundreds in 7.6 seconds, and its torque is 500 Nm at 1600-1800 rpm.
Motorists love this crossover for its spacious comfortable interior, impressive trunk size, adjustable steering and diesel fuel consumption of 6.7 liters on a combined cycle.
The diesel 200-horsepower 2.2-liter unit, controlled by an automatic transmission, provides the greatest dynamics compared to the not-so-agile petrol counterpart. It accelerates a fairly heavy car to hundreds in 9.6 seconds, while a gasoline one takes 11 seconds.
Far from the cheapest car is just as wasteful in terms of fuel - as much as 9.5 liters in the combined cycle. However, motorists choose it not only for its luxurious interior and bright design, but also for endurance, smooth running, and handling. Under the hood of the largest representative of the Lexus family, an engine resembling Land cruiser 200. It has a volume of 4.5 liters, 272 “horses” and a torque of 650 Nm, and the engine accelerates a very heavy and voluminous car in just 8.6 seconds.
IN new version the appetite of the car can be called moderate - 9.5 liters, while in the gasoline version - 14.4 liters. The combination of the engine with a 6-speed automatic transmission moves the car quickly, smoothly, silently, and shifts gears without delay.
In its latest modification, the car received the title of the most powerful diesel crossover. Under its hood is an interesting design of a 4-liter unit, consisting of an electric heater with an ion battery under the trunk floor and a pair of turbines. EPC enhances the turbocharger's ability to deliver dynamic performance, while the use of an electrically driven compressor eliminates low-end lag.
Power of 435 hp, torque of 900 Nm, 8-speed automatic upgraded transmission, acceleration to hundreds in 4.8 seconds - with all these excellent characteristics, only not the best sound insulation can be noted.
The average fuel consumption is within 7.5 liters, and only 194 g of carbon dioxide per kilometer are emitted during operation.
In the Russian car market, all diesel engines of this contestant have a 3-liter volume, but different power and supercharging: simple turbocharged, bi-turbocharged, with power from 249 to 313 hp.
But only the third generation of the X5 boasts a superb triple-supercharged unit with 381 hp. and torque at 740 Nm. The car overcomes its hundred in 5.3 seconds, while diesel fuel requires only 6.7 liters.
Under the hood of this pickup is a choice of one of the freshly developed 2.4 and 2.8 liter turbodiesels. The first has 400 Nm of torque, 150 hp. and a mechanical transmission in the kit, the second - 450 Nm, 177 hp. and a 6-speed automatic.
Although some owners complain about excessive noise, these motors have significantly increased the efficiency of the car. The smaller "brother" in the combined cycle asks for 7.3 liters of diesel fuel, the older one - about 8.5 liters.
This popular “Frenchman” is good for everyone: affordable, passable, spacious, and with a new diesel engine, it is also environmentally friendly and economical. A one and a half liter unit at 1750 rpm and 200 Nm of torque produces a power of 240 “horses”.
Although the gasoline engine noticeably wins in terms of speed gain, in the diesel version it has a high efficiency, eats 2 times less fuel and effectively cleans the exhaust before it is released into the environment.
Among the three engines available in the model, there is only one diesel, but which one: a 3-liter 173-horsepower dynamic unit with excellent dynamics and a 5-speed “automatic”.
In addition to acceleration to hundreds in 11.7 seconds, a torque of 410 Nm and diesel fuel consumption of no more than 8 liters in the combined cycle, the owners praise the engine for its unpretentiousness, reliability and maintainability.
The Japanese auto industry not only appears most often in the ranking, but is also recognized the absolute leader in terms of the characteristics of its power unit.
The legendary crossover is appreciated by the whole world for its impressive off-road qualities, excellent all-wheel drive system, differential lock, huge luggage compartment, luxurious interior and suspension ability to overcome any road difficulties. And a diesel engine provides decent traction dynamics and halved fuel consumption.
Just like its petrol counterpart, it works with an all-wheel drive system and a 6-speed automatic transmission. With a volume of 4.5 liters, it has a power of 249 hp. and consumes about 10 liters per kilometer. Its design consists of a cast-iron cylinder block, a chain drive, two turbines, a 32-bit timing belt with 2 camshafts for each row of cylinders and electronic nozzles in the Common Rail injection system.
Motorists are unanimous in their opinion that the Land Cruiser 200 is the best combination of price, quality, reliability, cross-country ability, economy and maintainability.
Video about the most economical diesel cars:
Many motorists cannot understand why a diesel car is more economical than a gasoline one. Especially at the current cost of gasoline and diesel, which are almost equal to each other. The whole secret lies in the efficiency of the diesel engine itself, which consumes a much smaller amount of fuel with an equal working volume. The difference in consumption can reach up to two times, which means. That at one gas station you can drive twice as much, especially since modern diesel units are comparable in technical parameters with gasoline ones.
Now, some may think about it. What's the point of buying cars with a gasoline engine? But even here, not everything is so smooth, initially, the diesel version of the car is somewhat more expensive than gasoline counterparts, and maintenance has to be done more often, which leads to more expensive car maintenance. Therefore, a diesel car will pay for itself only with high mileage and long-term use.
Peugeot 408
A car of this brand is equipped with a 1.6-liter diesel engine that produces up to 113 horsepower. Fuel consumption is declared 6.2 liters. At the same time, it accelerates to 100 km / h in 11 seconds, which is not a bad result at a cost of 1,100,000 rubles.
The sedan received a spacious interior and a good package, especially. According to the company, car maintenance will not be expensive. At the same time, the car was fully adapted to the operating conditions in Russian conditions.
Citroen C4
This is a car of the same auto concern PSA. What is Peugeot. Therefore, it is equipped with the same 1.6-liter diesel unit, but with reduced fuel consumption. In this car, consumption is reduced to an astonishing 4.4 liters, but acceleration to 100 km/h has increased by 0.2 seconds. The cost of the car starts from 780,000 rubles.
The sedan from Citroen has a stylish exterior, high-quality assembly and a good range of options. Also, a robotic automatic transmission is available in the configuration. But the declared fuel consumption in mixed mode is suspicious. If he is real. That is only in "greenhouse" conditions.
Opel Meriva
The car of the German automobile manufacturer, which is equipped with two variants of a diesel unit with a working volume of 1.7 liters, the declared power is 110 and 100 horsepower, and the fuel consumption is 6.4 liters. A six-speed manual or automatic transmission is installed in pair with the engines, while acceleration to “hundreds” takes 11.8 seconds.
The car has a comfortable and attractive interior, which can be complemented by various options. Also, implemented unusual for modern world rear door opening system - against the movement, which facilitates access to the salon. Unfortunately, Opel has left the automotive market in Russia, so only used cars are available for purchase.
Kia Soul
The car is equipped with a diesel engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and issuing 128 horsepower. At the same time, for 100 kilometers in mixed mode, the consumption is 7.4 liters. And the price tag starts from 820,000 rubles.
Kia Soul attracts attention with its extravagant exterior design, while it has a high-performance Korean-made diesel engine that competes with the best representatives of European manufacturers. The only negative is the unsuccessful design of the luggage compartment, which is not very convenient to use.
VolksWagen Golf
.JPG)
A popular representative of the German automotive industry, which has earned the love and recognition of consumers for its quality and reliability. At its disposal it has a diesel unit with a working volume of 2 liters and issuing 110 horsepower. A five-speed manual gearbox is installed in pair with the power unit. The declared consumption of diesel fuel is 6.4 liters per 100 kilometers. unfortunately, there is no information about the new generation diesel versions on the official website of the Russian division.
This is a reference car in its class that deserves attention. The diesel engine does not strike with power, but remains relevant to this day. Of the minuses. It can be noted the absence of an automatic transmission and the high cost of additional options. And also, the difficulty in finding a car in the secondary market.
Ford Focus
It can be called one of the most popular cars in Russia, but the diesel version is sold a little worse than the gasoline counterpart. The package includes a diesel unit with two liters of displacement and 140 horsepower. Acceleration to 100 km / h takes 9.5 seconds, and consumption does not exceed 6.8 liters in mixed mode. car price in diesel version was from 850,000 rubles, but the new generation does not have a diesel version.
The diesel-powered variant is one of the most dynamic vehicles in its price segment. Also, there is a choice of body type and many trim levels. This is a decent choice for a diesel car.
Hyundai i30 Wagon
Korean car with a diesel unit of 1.6 liters 128 horsepower, installed in tandem with automatic transmission gears in six steps. Claimed fuel consumption is 7.9 liters per 100 kilometers in mixed mode, and acceleration to “hundreds” takes 11.7 seconds. In the new line of cars, Russian dealers do not have a diesel version, but this is not a problem if you were going to buy a used car. At the time of sales, the cost of the diesel version started at 900,000 rubles.
Station wagons were equipped with a diesel unit, which is very logical for practical cars. Fuel economy with the practicality of the body - a guarantee of popularity in its segment of the automotive market.
Peugeot 3008
Not the cheapest car, which is a little out of the scope of the article, but it is impossible not to mention it. The price of a car in a diesel version starts from 1,600,000 rubles. The package includes a diesel unit with a displacement of 1.6 liters and 112 horsepower. At the same time, fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 5.2 liters, and acceleration to 100 km / h takes 12.6 seconds.
The car is presented to the public as a crossover, but at its core is a compact van with the character of a crossover. It features a comfortable and spacious interior, with a large luggage compartment. The package includes a six-speed automatic transmission and a fairly stiff suspension.
Skoda Octavia Combi
Also. One of the most popular representatives of cars in its class, which is equipped with a diesel two-liter engine with 140 horsepower. In tandem with the engine, a six-speed automatic robotic gearbox is installed, which allows the station wagon to accelerate to 100 km / h in 8.3 seconds. At the same time, the consumption does not exceed 7.2 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers in mixed mode.
This car qualitatively differs from similar station wagons in good dynamics and high-quality and well-thought-out interior design. The car is equipped with the only option of an automatic DSG preselective gearbox. It also has a spacious luggage compartment of 580 liters, and the price starts from 1,650,000 rubles.
VolksWagen Touran
A representative of German compact vans who wants to be a crossover. It is equipped with a reliable diesel unit with a working volume of 2 liters and has a capacity of 110 horsepower. There is a variety in the choice of transmissions. Which is represented by a mechanical and robotic six-speed preselective gearbox. Claimed fuel consumption of 6.8 liters per hundred kilometers justifies the cost of the car. The price of the diesel version starts from 1,440,000 rubles.
Like most cars German manufacturer, the compact van from VolksWagen is distinguished by a thoughtful interior and build quality. Also, there is a seven-seat equipment, which retains the convenience of using the interior, but deprives the car of the trunk.
This was the first part of an article about inexpensive diesel cars for Russian market You can read the continuation here.
The share of diesel models and modifications in the overall picture of the car fleet is much less than cars with gasoline engines. Nevertheless, the demand for them is stable, and in recent years it has been constantly growing, if not in specific markets, then in a global sense for sure. A lot of diesel offers and in Russian Federation. Today, "Auto News of the Day" acquaints its readers with relatively affordable options.
Diesel cars have always been more expensive than their gasoline counterparts, so there is no need to talk about any "budget". We will provide data on a dozen, let's say, more or less affordable cars with heavy fuel engines that are offered in Russian car dealerships.
Speaking about prices, it is worth noting that they are approximate in a certain sense and may vary depending on the offer of a particular dealer. We are only talking about the big picture.
Eighth place was left for Peugeot Partner. Minivan with 90 hp diesel will cost from 1,100 thousand rubles.
Peugeot 408 front-wheel drive sedan with 112 hp diesel costs from 1,055 thousand rubles - seventh place.
The top five most affordable diesel passenger models in Russia are opened by UAZ Pickup. It costs from 970 thousand rubles and is equipped with a 114 hp engine.
The Hyundai i30 front-wheel drive hatchback takes 4th place. 128 hp diesel option will cost 930 thousand rubles.
The domestic SUV UAZ Patriot in diesel version costs from 859 thousand rubles. Power - 114 hp
popular among the people Renault Duster with a diesel engine of 109 hp and all-wheel drive costs from 829 thousand rubles.
Expectedly, the most affordable diesel car is the UAZ Hunter. All with the same 114-horsepower engine, an SUV costs from 589 thousand rubles. However, we are talking, most likely, about the warehouse stocks of some dealers. At least, on the official website of the automaker today, only gasoline versions of the Hunter are presented.
