The main criterion when choosing a car for the elderly, in addition to price, is the cost of ownership. The list of differences of such cars includes low fuel consumption, affordable spare parts with a large number of cheap analogues, low repair costs and the same inexpensive after-sales service, experts from Otkritie Avto (an auto business unit of Otkritie Bank) said in a comment for Banki.ru.
“Domestic cars meet all the criteria. They are noticeably cheaper, easier to maintain, and minor damage is likely to be covered under warranty. This, for example, is the Lada Granta with a station wagon or liftback body, because with a large trunk they are more convenient to own, ”explained the experts.

According to them, earlier it was possible to take a car from hand, but it was younger than three years, but now the secondary car market of the Russian Federation is not distinguished by low prices. In this regard, experts recommended to look at cars older than seven years. When buying a used car, they advise paying close attention to the technical condition of the car and the documentation.
“In addition to Russian used cars, you can look at popular foreign cars. It is always easier to find a decent option among a large selection, it is easier to pick up cheap analogues of components, and in a general sense they are more reliable. For example, these are Kia Rio, Hyundai Solaris, Ford Focus of the second generation, Volkswagen Polo, Skoda Rapid and Renault Logan of the second generation.
Now in most modern cars there is a minimum set of comfort options. According to experts, it is better to consider cars with at least one airbag, anti-lock system, heated front seats, air conditioning and, if desired, an automatic transmission.
