Foreign budget cars are very popular in our country. A cheap foreign car is a good alternative to domestic cars. For a small price, the buyer receives a reliable and practical car. If we talk about manufacturers, Korean and French brands are now popular, in particular Renault. One of the more affordable cars in the lineup is the Renault Sandero. We will consider the complete set, photo, technical characteristics and an overview of the machine in the article.

Description

So, what kind of car is this? Renault Sandero is a five-door B-class hatchback. At the moment, the second generation of Renault Sandero is being produced. The car was presented as part of the Paris Auto Show in 2012.

Design

Externally, the car looks modest, but nice. The design shows features"brother" called "Logan". But here - unlike the last version - the bumpers are always painted in body color, regardless of the configuration. Renault Sandero received neat headlights with running lights, as well as a wide grille with a company logo. At the bottom of the bumper are round foglights with a large chrome trim. In general, Sandero received the image of a modest urban hatchback. There are no bright lines and special details in the exterior. There is no way to stand out on Sandero. However, this model was not created for such purposes.

Dimensions, clearance

The machine is quite compact. So, the total length is 4.07 meters, width - 1.52, height - 1.73 meters. The wheelbase is 2589 mm. Curb weight - from 1100 to 1150 kilograms (depending on the installed engine and gearbox).

Regardless of the configuration, the Renault Sandero has good ground clearance. Under load, its value is 15.5 centimeters. Due to the high ground clearance and short base, this car is able to easily drive on all roads, even without coverage. Of course, the car is not designed for swamps, but it’s quite enough to take the family on a picnic deep into the forest.

Interior

The salon looks very modern, but there will never be any luxurious elements here. The plastic is hard, the insulation is lame - people say in the reviews. Nevertheless, it is comfortable to sit behind the wheel: the ergonomics in the Renault are well thought out. The heater control unit is conveniently located on the center console. Normally for "Sandero" notprovided music. However, for a fee, you can buy a 7-inch radio with navigation. The instrument panel includes three wells.

The Renault cabin is designed for five, but in practice only two can be accommodated in the back. The rear sofa is narrow, so the three riders will be clearly cramped. And the back itself is very flat (unlike the front seats).

Trunk

Regardless of the configuration, the Renault Sandero in the new body has a 320-liter trunk. At first glance, the volume seems small. But due to the correct shape, you can put really dimensional things here. And in case you need to transport something non-standard, there is a function of folding the backs of the rear seats in a ratio of 60:40. As a result, the volume of the trunk increases to 1200 liters. However, it will not be possible to obtain a flat floor. That's what the owners say. Under the raised floor is a full-size spare tire and basic tool kit.

Renault Sandero: specifications

The car has several configurations, as well as engine options. There are several gasoline power units in the lineup. What are the characteristics of the Renault Sandero in the basic configuration? The initial version is aggregated by an eight-valve four-cylinder engine with a capacity of 82 horsepower. The torque of the internal combustion engine is 134 Nm. Working volume - 1.6 liters.

Next on the list is a 16-valve power unit. It develops 102 horsepower at the same operatingvolume. Torque - 145 Nm. It is worth noting that this engine has better traction than the previous one. The motor does not need to be revved to the limit in order to dynamically accelerate. Full torque is revealed at 3.8 thousand rpm. Among the features of the French power unit, the timing system for adjusting the timing should be noted.

In the luxury configuration, the new Renault Sandero is equipped with a 113-horsepower power unit. Its volume is 1.6 liters. As for transmissions, there may be several. In the basic configuration, the Renault Sandero is equipped with a five-speed manual gearbox. A 4-speed automatic transmission is also available to the buyer.

Dynamics, consumption

"Renault Sandero" was not created for racing (with the exception of a special version of the RS, but not about it now), so this hatchback cannot be called fast. The weakest engine accelerates the car to hundreds in 13.9 seconds. With the most powerful engine, Renault Sandero rushes up to 100 kilometers per hour in 10.7 seconds. The maximum speed is from 163 to 177 kilometers per hour, depending on the installed engine. Average fuel consumption - from 6.6 to 8.6 liters, depending on the engine and gearbox.

Pendant

This hatchback was built on the M0 platform, where the power unit is supposed to be placed transversely. Renault has classic MacPherson struts at the front, and a semi-independent beam at the back. This suspension scheme is simple and reliable, so the owners have no problems with its repair. Yes, the car may seem harsh in the pits, but the suspension parts are veryresource. Steering - rack with hydraulic booster. Note that the anti-roll bar is installed both front and rear. The brake system is front disc, rear - drum. The scheme is very primitive. However, already in the basic configuration, Renault Sandero (including Stepway) is equipped with an ABS system.
