Russian women who want to go to the camp of motorists do not accept the “golden mean”. They choose either inexpensive cars up to 500 thousand rubles, or luxury models worth more than 1 million rubles. And they are guided when choosing the appearance, the cleanliness of the cabin and the height of the clearance. And no dull "mouse", brown and dark blue colors. Classic black and white bodies, as well as blue, red, green and yellow cars, are popular.
Sociologists found this out by analyzing data on 8 thousand sales from popular bulletin boards (Avito, Auto.ru, GetNewCar and Drom.ru). They made up top 10 most popular used cars for Russian women.
10. Toyota RAV4
A beautiful and powerful crossover that is appreciated for comfort and safety. Even while driving for several hours, you never get tired, thanks to a very soft suspension and excellent sound insulation.
9. Mazda 3
The car is good in everything: from external data to the interior. A spacious trunk, comfortable ergonomics (there are few buttons and it’s understandable why each one is needed), dynamism and Japanese reliability - what else is needed from an iron horse that will not spoil the furrow?
8. Audi Q3
All-wheel drive car with automatic transmission (it is especially popular among women), electric tailgate and basic rear parking sensors. Even a car from the secondary market looks very solid and expensive, and thanks to its low fuel consumption (8 liters) and unpretentiousness in maintenance, it will serve the owner for a very long time.
7. Opel Astra
A car with excellent interior insulation, comfortable seats and a very attractive design. There is enough space in it for comfortable accommodation of both the hostess herself and her long-legged passengers (or passengers). The downside of the Opel Astra is “gluttony” (12 liters in the city), but the ladies do not care much about fuel economy.
6. Opel Corsa
And another representative of the Opel family was included in the ranking of the most popular female used cars. This handsome man smoothly starts up even in severe frosts and is perfect for smooth city roads. Since the clearance of this car is low, for off-road driving this is not the best option.
5. Skoda Fabia
A small and roomy car is what is required for a metropolis. With it, it is not difficult to find a parking space and quickly maneuver in a dense stream without difficulty. The electric power steering greatly facilitates control, and for greater driver convenience, the seat can be adjusted in height and the steering column in length and height. And also in Skoda Fabia a lot of compartments for things!
4. Range Rover Evoque
This premium Briton captivates admiring female looks and envious male ones. The ergonomics of the crossover is excellent: the on-board computer, cruise control and music are located on the steering wheel, which is convenient and practical. A six-speed automatic transmission provides a smooth ride, and the suspension is soft, even if you accidentally drop into a pit.
3. Mercedes-Benz A- and C-Class
Beautiful German "iron horses" are expensive to maintain, but will this stop the woman who has fixed her eyes on Mercedes? But they can boast of perfect maneuverability, excellent sound insulation and reliability. Of the minuses: they may not start in very cold weather (minus 25 degrees and below).
2. MINI Cooper
This kid is ideal for those who need maneuverability and compactness on the road. Those who drive a MINI Cooper have no problems with rebuilding, and the car just provokes a fast ride. However, users note the disadvantages: fuel consumption (from 11 liters per 100 km), strong noise at high speeds and stiffer suspension.
1. BMW 1-, 3-Series
Here it is, a used dream car of Russian autolydy. Great car for traveling around the city, and for long trips. Fast acceleration, crazy design with its beauty, perfect handling and the feeling of sitting behind the wheel of a racing car - all this is BMW. A fly in the ointment, small rear-view mirrors "pour" into this barrel of honey.
