Every year, more and more drivers when buying a new car give their preference to the car Daewoo Matiz. The feedback of existing owners allows us to characterize it as a foreign car that is inexpensive to maintain, ideal in terms of price - quality.
Some technical specifications:
- The car is a five-seater front-wheel drive hatchback.
- External dimensions: length - 3.5 m, height - 1.5 meters, width - 1.5 meters. Interior dimensions: length - 1.8 m, height - 1.22 m, width - 1.26. An important characteristic for the consumer is the trunk volume of the Daewoo Matiz car. Drivers' reviews indicate that the trunk with a capacity of 480 liters seems to many to be too small, especially if you often have to carry bulk things (for example, a pram).
- The car is sold in two types: with an engine capacity of 0.8 and 1 liter. The engine is a four-stroke gasoline. Accordingly, for a car of 0.8 MT, the fuel consumption for the combined cycle is 8.3 liters, for urban - 7.4 liters, for suburban - 5 liters. For a 1.0 MT car, the consumption will be slightly different: 8 liters for a combined cycle, 7.5 liters for a city and 5.4 liters per 100 km for a suburban. Gasoline with an octane rating of 92 - the main fuel Daewoo Matiz. Reviews of drivers characterize it as economical in fuel costs, but not a very powerful car for the city.
Surely many are interested in how the car behaves on the road, whether it starts up well. Many potential buyers ask how often they have to repair a car Daewoo Matiz. The reviews of the owners of this foreign car allow us to identify several problem points:
- The battery of a new car lives only a year and a half, then it has to be changed.
- When driving in a full car, the windows quickly and strongly fog up, you have to constantly turn on blowing.
- Sometimes the janitor on the rear window does not adhere well to the glass and, accordingly, does not clean it very well.
- In the cold, the rear window washer tube is often pinched.
- Some drivers complain of noise - plastic rattles during the trip.
- Hard batteries allow the driver to feel the whole "charm" of the trip on Russian roads, crowded with pits and bumps.
- The suspension is low, sometimes the car scratches the bottom of the ground, especially when you have to ride on a winter track.
- A compact and lightweight car can be slightly skidded on bends and when hit in a rut.
Now the positive reviews. Daewoo Matiz - the car is quite roomy, despite its small dimensions. The cabin can easily accommodate 4 medium-sized people. Again, due to the small size of the car, there are no problems with the park and the U-turn. All car owners note the ease and simplicity of controlling the machine - the steering wheel is easily rotated, the manual gearbox gently switches .
Thanks to the compact size of the cabin, you can reach almost any button on the control panel from the driver’s seat - everything is at hand. Armchairs easily change their position, including in order to free up space in the trunk (this to some extent compensates for the small size of the trunk).
Separately, the owners note the high reliability of the car inherent in foreign cars. It does not have to be repaired more often than 1-2 times a year, while there are no problems either with maintenance or with the replacement of parts. Many praise the unexpectedly good overview for such a small car (which is slightly disturbed by the front desk). In general, the Matiz car is an inexpensive, practical option for driving in the city. The price of a used car, which has been in operation for 2-3 years, is often lower than the price of new domestic cars, which makes the Daewoo Matiz an ideal option for beginners who are just starting to master driving practice.
