For the first time, the Korean compact Daewoo Matiz hatchback was presented to the public in 1998 at the Geneva Motor Show. At that time, it was the first successful project of a compact small city car, which was successfully sold in absolutely all countries of Western Europe. And now, a few years later, the new Matiz also reached the Russian market. How do our car owners characterize it? How much does it cost and what does it have under the hood? You will learn the answers to all these questions during our auto review "Daewoo Matiz - specifications, design and price".
Design
The appearance of the car was so successful that it has not undergone any changes for 16 years. It is unlikely that anyone will call the exterior of the Daewoo Matiz outdated or dull. This little one captivates with its modest and responsive design.
Round headlights, small hood anda smiling air intake - such a Matiz will obviously not get lost in a crowd of other cars! Its bright and cheerful design will cheer up anyone. In the presence of "Matiz" everything becomes just as kind and cheerful.
Dimensions and capacity
The compact Daewoo Matiz is one of the smallest hatchbacks in its class. Its dimensions are as follows: length - 3497 mm, width - 1495 mm, height - 1485 mm. Ground clearance is 15 centimeters. Due to its small size, the car briskly maneuvers through the narrowest city streets more confidently than any business sedans. At the same time, its trunk can accommodate up to 165 liters of cargo. For a city trip and shopping, such a little car is just right (in fact, that's why he got the nickname "ladies' man"). And if this is a version with an automatic gearbox, then in general there is simply no better car for driving around the city than the Matiz. By the way, what are the specifications of the Daewoo Matiz?
Engine and gearbox
Two versions of Matiz are delivered to the Russian market - with three- and four-cylinder engines. Both installations are petrol, have the same multipoint fuel injection. The junior unit, with its volume of 796 "cubes", develops a power of 51 horsepower. The top engine has a volume of 995 cubic centimeters. Its maximum power is 63 horsepower. For the city, this is quite enough, especially since the average fuel consumption of the Matiz is 5-5.5 liters per 100 kilometers. The car "Daewoo Matiz" specificationsin terms of "appetite" are very acceptable. If you calculate, it turns out that one liter of gasoline is enough for 20-25 kilometers. The Matiz has two transmissions - a five-speed "mechanics" and a four-band "automatic". By the way, the latter is most valued by motorists.
The price of the new "Matiz" in the domestic market
Given the fact that a new "Korean" costs less than 200 thousand rubles in Russia in the basic configuration, it's safe to say that "Matiz" is the most affordable car on the market in its class. Even the Chinese Chery QQ, which, in fact, is a copy of the Daewoo, costs at least 3-4 thousand more than the genuine Korean. But the most interesting thing is that despite the low cost, the build quality and reliability of the Matiz is no worse than that of its main competitor, the Nissan Micra, and even more so than the Russian Oka.
