UAZ Patriot Or & Nbsp; Foreign Car? 5 & ​​nbsp; Alternatives To The Russian SUV

Unlike Niva or Hunter, UAZ Patriot tries to keep up with the times: it tries on climate control, then a multimedia system with a large screen, then an automatic transmission … But it has not yet been possible to correct the constantly "floating" build quality. And if this moment is critical, especially against the background of a rather big price, then the question inevitably arises: Patriot or foreign car? Used, of course. Take a closer look with us at five relatively fresh SUVs that cost the same on the secondary market as a new UAZ.

Mitsubishi pajero

About 25 years ago, the name "Pajero" was a household name in the post-Soviet space. But not because of the success in the Paris-Dakar rally: the Russians liked Pajero because of its endurance, reliability, simplicity and maintainability. Therefore, now Japanese SUVs are very common on the roads. Especially the fourth generation, which has been in production for 13 years!

The new Pajero costs more than 2.6 million rubles and therefore can hardly be considered a direct competitor to the new Patriot. But if you look at the used car market, the UAZ Patriot against Mitsubishi Pajero may no longer be able to withstand it. For an amount of 1.2 million rubles, there are enough cars produced in 2008-2012 that are in good health and are ready to wind another hundred or two thousand kilometers. In addition to the V6 engine (gasoline or diesel) and an automatic transmission, the buyer is guaranteed to receive a leather interior, climate control, 8 airbags and an on-board computer. The legendary Super Select all-wheel drive is also included as standard.
