Lifan 820: specifications and reviews of experts on the Chinese novelty

Lifan 820 - this is another car from the already well-known Chinese manufacturer. This concern recently began to very often produce a variety of novelties, and most of them are sent for export to Russia. In this model, new design features and advanced technology are clearly traced.

Exterior

The first thing to note is the appearance of the model. Designers, designing the Lifan 820, made every effort to add to its image a resemblance to eminent cars from BMW, Audi and Lexus. People like beautiful cars, because the designers decided to try to make the Chinese novel attract attention. Well, let something clearly copied - the concern does not hide it. And we must admit - frank plagiarism "Lifan" never did. Everything is reasonable and reasonable.

The silhouette was very expressive. If you pay attention to the front, you can see how it looks like the cult "Audi R8". The shape of the optics is almost identical. True, Lifan has more ground clearance, because of what it loses the unique sportiness that is inherent in Audi. And in general the car is already a German sports car. The radiator grill was also tried to replicate, but it did not look very similar - what, what kind of individuality. True, it looks good anyway, very even harmoniously.

Specifications

Lifan 820 can please a small variety of engines. In general, a wide range of various technical proposals is already a classic, so to speak, if it is a question of a Chinese concern. And it can not but rejoice.

What, what can surprise Lifan 820? Technical characteristics of it are not bad - take, for example, the basic 1.8-liter 133-horsepower motor. He already knows many by car, known as the X60. And on some other machines of the concern it was installed.

Another potential buyer is offered a 2.4-liter power unit that produces 160 horsepower. There is also a turbocharged engine with a capacity of two liters. He produces as many as 210 horses - not bad for China!

What about gearboxes? It is offered either to all the usual standard in the form of a 5-speed mechanics, or a 6-speed automatic transmission.

Equipment

The manufacturer created this car with the purpose to please potential buyers with a high level of safety. Strictly speaking, he did it - on the C-NCAP test the car got five stars. So a certain step forward the manufacturer made. The body is made of high-strength steel - it also pleases. The cabin equipment is not bad - the steering column is trauma-safe, there are also side and front cushions and active headrests. Top models can boast of curtain airbags. Plus, it was decided to add a set of electronic assistants.

In the basic configuration, the car received an extended electrical package and, in addition, an entertainment multimedia system, cruise control, air conditioning and adjustable front seats. The top model is characterized by a parrot, a sunroof (panoramic), two-zone climate control and a rear-view camera. So in terms of bundling the car is not bad - in any case, the basic options for creating comfort are available.

What do experts say?

Of course, the sedan Lifan 820 received a lot of conflicting reviews. In particular, from Russian critics. And despite the fact that the company "Lifan" involved in the work of professional specialists in the field of mechanical engineering, they could not do an ideal transport.

The cost of the car is 18 thousand dollars. At the current rate this is 1 285 000 rubles. And all Russians rightly believe that the price is clearly overstated. Our people are not ready to pay such a sum for a Chinese car with the proposed characteristics. For the sake of comparison: for the same money you can buy in excellent condition Mercedes E-Class 2009 with a 170-horsepower engine or BMW X5 with a 235-horsepower motor and maximum trim.

So this price is indecently high. In the car Lifan 820 too many flaws - this is the first. Materials used in the finish, do not shine with quality (also savings from the manufacturer). In the layout and assembly are also visible shortcomings, judging by the test drive. And there is no uniqueness in this car. So the price should be lowered - and then, maybe, there will be a demand. Such here leave the critics and experts about the car Lifan 820 reviews.
