Jeep for 500 thousand rubles new or used

Picking up a real jeep for 500 thousand rubles is a difficult task. If a jeep is understood as an SUV, and not a crossover or SUV, then the choice is limited to a small number of models.

First of all, we recall the domestic VAZ-2121 and its various modifications. The most affordable is the three-door Niva VAZ-2121 or VAZ-21214. An all-wheel drive Russian off-road car of a small class will cost 350 thousand rubles, but if you want to choose a more complete set, you can invest in 360 thousand.

Five-door Niva VAZ-2131 in the standard configuration will cost 389-400 thousand rubles. The car is ideal for our off-road, but it also consumes a lot of gasoline - 10-12 liters.

You can also highlight specially redesigned versions designed for the most difficult conditions - Niva-Lynx.

Niva-Lynx Bronto - a three-door version with increased ground clearance costs 481 thousand, and the price of a five-door Niva-Lynx-2 is already 555 thousand rubles.

Speaking of Niva, it is impossible not to remember the SUV, which was designed specifically for our conditions - Chevrolet Niva. Developed by the joint venture GM-AVTOVAZ, "SHEVINIVA", as it is sometimes called, has become a great success both in Russia and in the CIS countries. The cost, I must say, is quite affordable and starts from 469 thousand rubles, that is, it falls into the category of jeeps for 500 thousand.

Chevrolet NIVA comes in five basic trims, but all come with the same features: 1.7-liter gasoline engine with 80 horsepower, five-speed manual transmission, fuel consumption reaches 11 liters.

Both the simple and the most expensive GLS equipment for 567 thousand rubles has everything you need: power steering, cabin filter, air conditioning, immobilizer. Although, for the same money you can buy a Renault Duster all-wheel drive crossover, which surpasses the ShNIVU in its characteristics - it has been proven by numerous tests.

By the way Renault Duster - Another great example of an affordable option costing from 490 to 800 thousand. Duster still more correctly attributed to crossovers, but off-road, and especially light, he behaves quite decently. Both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive variations are available, but its main advantage over the Chevrolet Niva is that it consumes less fuel: 9,2 liters in the city with automatic transmission, and from five to seven liters on the highway.

It is impossible to pass by another legend of the Soviet automobile industry - UAZ cars. If we talk about a true SUV, then it will certainly be UAZ-Hunter. Created on the basis of the Soviet UAZ-469, the "Hunter" is equipped with very voracious engines - diesel and gasoline. Diesel for a hundred kilometers requires 13 liters, gasoline - 10-11. The car comes in an all-wheel drive version with a transfer case. The maximum speed is 135 kilometers per hour with an engine power of 112 horses.

A hunter with a gasoline engine costs from 479 thousand, with a diesel engine - 490-570 thousand rubles.

UAZ-Patriot - another product of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant. It looks more modern than the UAZ-Hunter, but the voracity of the ZMZ engines still affects: the gasoline version needs 100 / 11,5 per 15,5 km !!! liters at a speed of 90/120 km / h, and diesel - 9,5 and 12,5 liters, respectively.

The prices, as for a car of this class, are not small: the basic gasoline version of the Classic costs from 599 thousand rubles, and the diesel version costs 750/790 thousand.

However, almost all UAZ dealers offer discounts under the recycling program of 90-100 thousand (that is, if you exchange an old car for a new one under the trade-in program or hand over an old car for recycling and provide documents in the cabin), in this case UAZ-Patriot Classic just cost 499 thousand rubles.

Fans of the classics can pay attention to another Russian-made SUV - TagAZ Tager, which is an exact copy of the SsangYong Korando, built on the basis of a World War II jeep - Willys MB. The machine has a powerful 150-horsepower engine full or plug-in front-wheel drive with a reduction gear. The basic equipment will cost 519 thousand, and diesel and five-door modifications will cost 609-729 thousand. Fuel consumption - at the level of 12-18 liters in the city, 7-14 on the highway.

As you can see, there is a choice. True, you can find many Chinese-made crossovers at prices ranging from 350 thousand and above. Well, if you wish, for 500 thousand you can pick up a good used SUV like Toyota RAV4, BMW X5, Mitsubishi Outlander and others.
