If you decide to purchase a minivan, this is a very right decision, because such a vehicle can comfortably accommodate from five to 8 passengers. True, a good Toyota or Volkswagen minivan will cost quite a lot - we have already provided reviews of minivans from different manufacturers on the pages of our Vodi.su autoportal.

China, as the modern world leader in the automotive industry, produces several relatively inexpensive models of minivans, which will be our article.

Chery Cross Easter

Chery Cross Eastar is a roomy station wagon with five doors. 6-7 people will feel quite comfortable in it. This car belongs to the category of budget cars, in Moscow car dealerships they ask for 619-640 thousand rubles for it. However, it looks very modern, just look at the original instrument panel, which is shifted to the center of the front dashboard.

Pleases Cross Eastar with its technical characteristics:

• 4-cylinder gasoline engine, volume - 1,8 liters, power - 127 hp;
• maximum speed - 185 km / h;
• fuel consumption - 10 liters in the city, 6,2 on the highway;
• manual gearbox;
• body length - 4397 mm, wheelbase - 2650 mm;
• front suspension MacPherson strut, rear - multi-link system;
• there is ABS / EBD, immobilizer, central locking, parking sensors.

In a word, the car is quite modern, powerful enough and fast, albeit made in China. For 640 thousand rubles a very good choice. Those people who have purchased this versatile compact van note its character - the engine pulls well already at 1500-2000 rpm, although with an increase in intensity, the thrust gradually disappears. The gearbox has quite large strokes, which adds to the impression of driving a sports car.

Geely Emgrand EV8

For lovers of a quiet ride, this 8-seater minivan will suit. It was first presented at the Shanghai Auto Show back in 2009. The length of its body is 4,84 meters.

Interestingly, to save fuel, the EV8 is equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission - out of town, 6th gear is often not enough.

A package with a more familiar 5-speed manual is also available.

The car is delivered to Russia in several trim levels, but you should not stop at the basic configuration, since it does not provide frontal airbags. There is also no standard audio system.

There are also two types of engines: 2 and 2.4 liters. Consumption of AI-92 is approximately 10 liters in the city. It is felt that the engines are not the most powerful - 140 and 162 hp. Up to a hundred accelerates in 10 seconds. The maximum speed is 150 and 140 km/h. At full load, the dynamic performance is noticeably reduced.

In a word, Geely Emgrand EV8 is a car for a large family. You won't run very hard on it. To date, this model is not represented in Moscow car dealerships. Prices are quite high - from 100 thousand yuan, which in terms of rubles will be from 800 thousand.

Cherry Curry (A18)

Chery Karry is a van that is not officially supplied to Russia, although it has been produced in China since 2007. You can buy Chery Carry in Ukraine.

If you look closely at this minivan, it becomes noticeable that we have an extended wheelbase from Chery Amulet. 7 passengers can easily fit here. The load capacity is 650 kilograms. To increase the carrying capacity, the designers abandoned the MacPherson strut suspension in favor of longitudinal springs, and the capacity is achieved through an elongated wheelbase and a high roof.

The car can be used for passenger transportation and as a freight transport. It comes with two types of engines: 1,5 and 1,6 liter gasoline, their power is 109 and 88 hp. respectively.

The Vodi.su team does not have information on whether official deliveries of Chery Karry to Russia are planned. If you like this car, then a car produced in 2008-2009 will cost about 4-6 thousand dollars. In it you will find everything you need: front-wheel drive, alarm, parking sensors, central locking, ABS, air conditioning, power steering and so on.

FAW 6371

FAW 6371 is a commercial minibus that can be found in both passenger and cargo-passenger versions. There is also a chassis.

Dongfeng EQ6380

Another super compact minivan. Its grille is very reminiscent of a BMW. This is a seven-seater minibus, 5 doors, rear-wheel drive. Currently not produced, but can be seen on the sites of ads for the sale of cars.

The bus is characterized by small appetites - a 1,3 liter engine consumes only 5 liters of AI-92 on the highway. In the city, consumption increases to 6,5-7 liters. The carrying capacity due to the suspension on the springs reaches 800-1000 kilograms. A good option as a commercial vehicle.

Great Wall Cowry

This is a beautiful and modern minivan with a retractable roof. The two-liter petrol engine produces 143 horsepower. The cabin can easily fit 8 people. Body length - 4574 mm, wheelbase - 2825.

Another Chinese automotive giant is releasing a compact van with an outstanding appearance - Great Wall CoolBear.

"Cool Bear" belongs to the class Mini MPV. Unlike other Chinese cars, the creators of CoolBear took a responsible approach to ensuring safety: they have front and side double airbags. Engines: petrol 1,3 and 1,5 liters, 1,2-liter diesel.

As you can see, Celestial offers a wide selection of minivans, the only pity is that not all of them are presented in Russian car dealerships.
