“Shortage of premium cars in Russian market leads to shortcomings in Chinese models”

Experts of the Russian automotive market state a serious shortage of cars belonging to the premium segment after the departure of Western brands. Take the same popular model Toyota Land Cruiser. But it was replaced by Chinese tanks, and the Russian media have already publish detailed analysis of the shortcomings of the Tank 500 model, which clearly do not add that very premium.

For example, the fact that the “Tank” from China “eats” a lot – about 20 liters of fuel per 100 km, which is quite a lot and costly. Many owners of Chinese crossovers are already complaining about such “appetites”.

Another noticeable minus lies in the operation of the automatic transmission, which has nine steps. The box has been called very “thoughtful” and “illogical” in gear changes.

Car owners also do not like the strange service interval of 7.5 thousand km. During this time, headlights and other parts of cars have time to fail.
