Any modern SUV produced at the UAZ plant must combine all the positive qualities of an all-terrain vehicle and a city car. Based on this, Ulyanovsk engineers created a completely new model of the UAZ Simbir SUV.
This car, unlike its predecessors, has become more comfortable, powerful and easy to drive. When you see it, it is immediately clear that the car is designed for operation in any conditions (this is a hallmark of all UAZs). History of creation
Initially, model 3162 was built on the basis of the UAZ 3160, which was mass-produced for seven years, from August 1997 until 2004. The new UAZ Simbir was an improved version of this model, featuring a long base and a new axle. And it has been produced since April 2000. Since that moment, a lot of time has passed, during which the Russian SUV has proven itself perfectly. UAZ "Simbir" - the reviews of the owners were very flattering. Buyers had the opportunity to order a 6-seater Ulyanovsk SUV in a luxury version with 3 rows of seats, as well asmechanical headrest adjustment system.
Overview of design and specifications.
Many will agree that the UAZ 3162 "Simbir" had a rather attractive appearance, which emphasized the solidity of its owner. The body of the car was made very high quality (this applies to both design and its strength). Now the jeep became more stable on sharp turns, and also developed a greater speed.
The interior of the new model has become more spacious. The front seats have also changed - now car trips no longer tire the driver and his passengers. The rear seats can be easily folded down, which significantly increases the volume of the trunk (however, it was already very roomy).
UAZ "Simbir" is equipped with power steering, radio, air conditioning, power windows and headlight cleaners. It also has central locking and a hatch in the cab.
A word about the engine
Until 2001, the novelty was equipped with a carburetor engine of the UMP 421-10 brand. After that, a more modern and powerful engine of the same brand was installed on the SUV. A year later, the company produced a new line of UAZ Simbir with ZMZ turbodiesel engines.
UAZ through the eyes of consumers
The Russian jeep UAZ "Simbir" could boast of its remarkable cross-country ability, high maintainability, and unpretentious maintenance. But numerous factory flaws(including engine defects, increased clutch wear and frequent breakdowns of the power steering) negatively affected the reputation of Ulyanovsk SUVs. Sometimes people called him "harmful and naughty car." Initially, our domestic auto industry was famous for its unfinished cars.
However, the attempt of engineers to update the outdated model 469 (the legendary UAZ Bobik) was not in vain. New SUVs had many advantages over their "ancestors". But still, there are no ideal cars in the world, and each of them has its drawbacks.
